Worst gaming company - Updated May 2024 Edition

[Incarnate]

Sony's been making some moves of late. I think we can place them above EA for the third spot.

Also, I think we gotta give a round of applause to Battlestate Games (Escape from Tarkov) for their recent pricing model. Truly, they wanted to be on this accursed list, and that takes dedication. A solid #5.

Ubisoft remains at the top thanks to delisting more games, with Activsion-Blizzard in distant second.

Did I miss anything? I'd place 3D Realms on the list, but they seem to mainly have problems with one crappy developer, not the whole operation.

Not a company but, Gearbox CEO, Randy Pitchford absolutely deserves to be in there for being the biggest clown in the gaming industry. His only good contribution to universe is a few maps in Half Life Opposing Force

I still have no clue how he is in control of anything. He ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the Aliens game, he wasted Duke Nukem, and squandered Brothers in Arms just as it finally got good. I swear everyone in the Gearbox executive boardroom is high on shrooms, because there is no effort put into anything, and all their decisions are baffling.

2024 is turning out to be a collective effort.

They all suck. Indie devs are the only good ones left.

He's not. The company was bought up by an even more screwed up company who was owned by a prince of Saudi Arabia as an effort to diversify the oil economy. As it turned out when you have oil everything else looks like a nail.

They didn't like it. And I been banned from off topic to mention it that Saudi Arabia and tech companies do not work. The thing that investment who are high risk are as well high risk to fail to other high risk companies who are successful.

CDProject Red. It completely sc rewed their most loyal fans, oldest supporters and took a dump upon their own DRM-Free Revolution. They even insult the intelligence of their customers, with corporate speech, on DRM not being DRM and refuse to resolve relative to it, issues.

The usual... Mostly EA and Epic.

EA for being, well... EA.

And Epic for being scummy, creating anti-consumer PC "exclusives", and funded by Chinese communist genocide dictator supporting TENCENT.

Damn, forgot all about Embracer. Though I think they are run by Swedes. The Saudis only own a small chunk. I think they got one look at the idiots running it and had cold feet about buying a controlling share.
