Wait, so the patents Nintendo is suing them for breaching were only filed… months after Palworld was already wildly successful?

Not to mention the bandwidth costs… yeesh

Don’t bother with ABP. Use AdGuard, uBlock Origin, and Privacy Badger.

I do think the 30% commission is high. But the problem I see now is, even if the gov’t gets involved and mandates their rev share be lower, game publishers will absolutely not lower their prices to coincide with that. Corps know people are already used to paying pretty exorbitant prices, so they’d happily have the government mandate they make more profit while valve makes less without having to do any work whatsoever.

No platform pays nearly as well as YouTube does on average. If they upload to other platforms, and you watch the content on those other platforms, they’re going to make significantly less money than if you watch on YouTube. Even if there’s increased reach from uploading to multiple platforms, the creator will almost certainly make less—so there’s less than no incentive for them to upload elsewhere.

I hope none of the stock exchanges have captchas, otherwise they might have trouble selling…
