Ironically this thread has turned into exactly what the poster is tired of.
Complaining about complaints, never goes as expected.

The irony is that, by and large, once Microsoft got serious about gaming, they became good stewards of those brands. I remember when everyone was sure MS was going to ruin Minecraft and instead, it's been great. Shockingly great, in fact.
On the other hand, Amazon Gaming ...
And do they do town houses NO.Aww… I thought this was a thread where people were saying there was too much bashing of the Wizard class players.
Those pointy-hatted bastard deserve it, looking down on the non-Wizard from their fancy towers…
There is no ethical roleplaying under Hasbro. Or Transformers, or My Little Pony.
Who isn't?I'm more of a taco guy.
That's the thing about accountability. Much like protests, strikes, sit-ins, etc... the inconvenience is part of the point.That's the problem. Accountability inconveniences the consumers who just wanna consume their favorite products without thinking about the unethical things going on behind or even front of the screen so they will either defend it or turn a blind eye to it all.

Very true, Wizards provides opportunity for free, seemingly often enough.Most of the usual suspects on these forums hardly need any provocation.
For the record, that was a myth. nobody was fired.as I said, PR / damage control. Do you think Budweiser firing the two marketing guys over the one transgender influencer was because they actually made a mistake this severe or because it functions as damage control...
Is ORC even done? You can't renege on something that hasn't been made yet. Not in the same way WotC did. If they create the ORC system and then try to stop people from using it, that would be the same. Not completing a project isn't even close to being the same.That's the difference between a first-time offender an repeat offender, I would say. So it's not inconsistent. Plus, as of right now, there is no decades long ORC based ecosystem. So the extent of the harm would be pretty minimal.

I am not a lawyer, but as I understand it, it is not illegal to purchase an item before the street date. However, there are often contracts between the manufacturer and retailer which include terms not to sell the itme before the street dat and fines for selling the product before the street date. Therefore, selling the item before the street date would be a breach of contract.People keep wanting accidentally buying something before intended release date to be illegal, but it's hard to find any evidence that's actually true.
Have heard some things from a source I trust about exactly how bad things have been inside Amazon Gaming. TL;DR: It's a breakdown at nearly every conceivable level, from crappy office politics and bad programming practices all the way up to failures of leadership, program direction, and management. Only the lowest-level, grunt-work employees, and the distant C-suite bigwigs are doing their jobs consistently competently, from what I heard.The irony is that, by and large, once Microsoft got serious about gaming, they became good stewards of those brands.
