EDIT: Also worth noting that 1C rebranded to "Fulqrum Publishing", so don't let that fool you.

Thanks for the heads up on that, a clear macro issue for sure. Sadly most people in gaming don’t understand Macro global issues. Just like they don’t understand economic warfare, it goes way over their heads. Simply put most don't trust their own government to run things right. Yet, another country government running a very large game publisher is okay for them? Then again, they don’t read EULA’s about their data collection, so ignorance is bliss.

Even if they did bother reading, most probably wouldn't care, unfortunately.

Seems most people have already given up on privacy and data collection... if they ever even cared in the first place.

So a Russian company sold their soul. Hey... you could even call it. its the 80s all over again but this time their selling companies and assets to china, same thing when some U.S. companies started to loose their marbles and now various large companies have a Tencent stake.

Of course people will not care anymore, some lost faith. some dont care and let them do it, some dont care because it hasnt affected them, even some dont care because a EULA is a piece of paper that anyone can break and you cant do anything about it because is like a restraining order that a person a can break then kill the person and its to late... the government is pretty far up in its a** that they do whatever they want, private sector do whatever they want and you could sue them but its too expensive and to get them in something against the law is so hard because there is no regulation, no protection for the people. Bravo.... people created this mess we are in now because some stupid idea of fanatical BS.

I appreciate this information, I'm going to take a very careful look on what is being said in the forums when it comes out, and even a longer wait before purchase. These guys ruined Conan Exiles with microtransactions, Already, not looking forward to what they will do with this game.

Useful info. Thx.

What a stupidly pointless thread and even dumber series of comments.

Thanks for letting us know!

We would have never realized the error of our ways if you hadn't blessed us with your wisdom!
