NMEC plans to comply with DOJ threats. This email was sent out Wednesday night to staff, but it noticeably doesn't mention anything specifically about LGBTQIA+ kids or DOJ, just general compliance with executive orders:

A Message from Sports Interactive, An Update on Football Manager 25

Sports Interactive regret to inform that, following extensive internal discussion and careful consideration with SEGA, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Football Manager 25 and shift our focus to the next release.

For the large numbers of you who pre-ordered FM25, we thank you enormously for your trust and support – we're very sorry to have let you down. Please see the FAQs below on obtaining your refund.

Development Update: Football Manager 25

We know this will come as a huge disappointment, especially given that the release date has already moved twice, and you have been eagerly anticipating the first gameplay reveal. We can only apologise for the time it has taken to communicate this decision. Due to stakeholder compliance, including legal and financial regulations, today was the earliest date that we could issue this statement.

We have always prided ourselves on delivering the best value for money games that bring you countless hours of enjoyment, that feel worth every moment and every penny you spend. With the launch of FM25 we set out to create the biggest technical and visual advancement in the series for a generation, laying the building blocks for a new era.

Due to a variety of challenges that we've been open about to date, and many more unforeseen, we currently haven't achieved what we set out to do in enough areas of the game, despite the phenomenal efforts of our team. Each decision to delay the release was made with the aim of getting the game closer to the desired level but, as we approached critical milestones at the turn of the year, it became unmistakably clear that we would not achieve the standard required, even with the adjusted timeline.

Whilst many areas of the game have hit our targets, the overarching player experience and interface is not where we need it to be. As extensive evaluation has demonstrated, including consumer playtesting, we have clear validation for the new direction of the game and are getting close – however, we're too far away from the standards you deserve.

We could have pressed on, released FM25 in its current state, and fixed things down the line - but that's not the right thing to do. We were also unwilling to go beyond a March release as it would be too late in the football season to expect players to then buy another game later in the year.

Through the cancellation, every effort is now focused on ensuring that our next release achieves our goal and hits the quality level we all expect. We will update you on how we are progressing with that as soon as we are able to do so.

Thank you for reading, your patience and your continued support. Our full focus now returns to creating a new era for Football Manager.

Must be pretty broken to have to cancel the game entirely.

HIGHLY

EDUCATED

I've heard good things about IPTV if you want something better than the shit on sportsurge but don't want to pay (((espn))) or whoever for some turbo cucked nonsense that blocks everything local. Also apparently they include boxing/ufc PPVs, which is mostly what I'm interested in anyway.

However, every post about them is full of obvious bots so I have no idea if it's a real thing or just a scam.

I thought this was an interesting piece, not just laughing at the little magats but trying to understand and appreciate them. It made me reflect on when I was young and looking to believe in something. I was in my last year of high school when Obama got elected, and I was so excited and so naive I really believed in hope and change. I thought things would be different, that they would be better.

Just saying, I was 6 years old when I discovered pornography on our family's shared computer through the search history. I guarantee your kids are more tech savvy than you think they are. If they can read, they can look up search history. If he's watching porn on your kids' tablet, there's a high likelihood they've been exposed to something already.

I told everyone here already

She really let the mask slip that this is a harmless civil rights organization when she yells “I demand Jihad, I want ISIS to kill all of you.”
