Vimm’s just got a ton of games taken down too. They’re still up, but at a significantly reduced capacity.

God, I’m so fucking tired of AAA game devs spouting bullshit like this. Do you make good games, sure, are they revolutionizong the industry, no. Get your fucking head out of your ass.
“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”

Shit, I’m a man and I went for Ryan Gosling.
So many good answers here, but I gotta add Aliens and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
It’s because the big studios don’t want to take a risk on something new and original, they almost always want to go for the “safe” bet and pick a sequel, spinoff or remake of an established IP that they know will make money. All they care about is profit. Making flims as an art form is is a struggle for passionate directors. Take Guillermo del Toro for example, he said recently (and I’m paraphrasing) that he still gets a lot of push back from studios when he’s trying to get his projects of the ground. That’s because he’s an artist and art is a risk.
I feel like that shit floods every time it rains lol. I’m curious how they would drain it.
Truly the end of an era
