its helps, butt technically using the service after being made aware of the terms of service, courts will probably decide that you have tacitly agreed to the terms of service PERIODT

It's also an incredibly low stakes to do, absolute worst case you get banned
from a dogshit game and another "journ*list" has to play it instead

They don't want people posting screenshots or footage, talking about it seems to be fine. People talking about it text only haven't been banned.

But why wouldn't you want more publicity for your shit????
Also there's a bajillion videos out there
anyway they aren't enforcing it with takedowns or anything.

The game is graphically unfinished. It's mostly temp art, it seems they don't want people to get bad impressions.
I think they want to avoid copyright strikes, but they are banning people who make videos.

I sure hope it's temp art, the environments are ugly as shit

Game is pretty darn complete looking maybe dont make the alpha open to 23,000 people if you dont want anyone seeing it

It was an accident, they just decided to roll with it and allow people in the alpha to keep inviting people.

people are dumb and don't understand what unfinished means. remember when someone leaked what a ps5 devkit looked like and everyone was ripping on sony for months for the pizza shape? there's videos even now of people going "ok well even if it was a devkit I wasn't wrong for freaking out about it"

Exactly, some grifter tiktoker will make a dishonest video like "this game looks like dogshit, is it over for Valve?" knowing full well it's not how it will be released. Then when people rightfully call him out for lying he'll just hide behind "What? I was just asking questions" but public perception will be dented.

The secret is that this game is just another MOBA and not worth playing.
Jump in the discussion.

Ill give them props for just making the game a moba unlike OW and its clones which try really hard to pretend they arent mobas when they are. Im pretty sure Splatoon by Nintendo is a more hardcore, fast paced, reflex focused shooter then Over "wait for my abilities to cool down and my healslut to heal me" Watch

It's just paragon and smite lol
also, aside from OW I don't know any moba shooter that tries to pretend it isn't one lol, Paladins literally has a shop like a moba

We just don't think, that we are smarter. We truly are too smart for social media. We care for our privacy and are not s*x objects for horny 13y/o like on other Platforms (e.g. Instagram, Snapchat, etc.). We are Redditors. We are anonymous, but we still understand and care for each other.

Its an interesting strategy. Pretend its exclusive, hand out invites like a street preacher to every passing r-slur then destroy journ*list who talk about it. Its better then jacking off journos i guess. I hope it works
