Do you love the disparity of the EA CEO's pay?

I'm sorry for doing this, but also I'm not. Andrew Wilson is the one who should be sorry.

Wsg EA, I hope you know that after all of this recent DMCA and cash grab bs, all of the silly digital people living in your game would react like this (^_^)

Hobbies are Hobbies for a reason

I'm not saying cc creators can't/shouldn't make money from their services/content. They put in hours of effort for us to enjoy and I never want to undersell just how much I appreciate that effort and how much it has improved my game and life.

BUT

Hobbies are hobbies, Passion is passion. When we monetize everything, we lose the social contracts that once ruled fan communities. "Be thankful for the gift and move on your way." If paid for, CC is no longer a nice addition to the game, it is a product. Now people have the right to complain, to report, to accuse and to demand a certain quality. Creators are no longer internet acquaintances who are creating because they love it, because they have a idea they can't escape or as a favor, they are a part of a million dollar business. No amount of good will that these creators have generated over years of fandom activity can obscure the monster they are covering for. EA see's how little people buy kits, how we say "why would I buy this if I could download CC for free?" and they are using our community members against us. They saw all of us subscribe to patreons and throw a few bucks at a Kofi and were jealous, they want our time, passion and money. They promise exposure and increased downloads, but slip in the 70% fee and total reputation ruin. And remember, they could have made this marketplace free, that's was what Curseforge was meant to be wasn't it? A place for console players to find CC and for everyone to feel confident in the safety of the downloads.

But now I'm wondering if It was all a ploy.

Convincing us that downloading CC was dangerous, when I've only seen 3 instances of malicious content in the 10 years I've been downloading and participating. Manipulating players to distrust peer to peer creation and downloading, telling them that only EA can make sure our CC is safe. Now even curseforge is too "risky" the only place you can trust is EA's own marketplace.

Stay the fuck away from the EA marketplace, stay away from the Saudi's, and let this shitty endeavor die with all the creators who signed on to it.

i think the sims 4 and minecraft communities should exchange brains to change their attitudes towards game updates:

minecraft updates are yearly, free and (mostly) without gamebreaking bugs, meanwhile the fandom criticizes the devs as if they just announced they're gonna throw shit at you

sims 4's are gamebreaking, buggy, almost bi-weekly and reintroduce features in an ever so slightly different way for a cost, and (a lot of) the fandom acts like it doesn't matter and proceed to buy all of it

#like mc isn't un-critisizable but i think at this point most of the community will never be happy #i'd love an end update but i think expecting every mc live to announce a change players won't enjoy unless they create a new world is dumb #minecraft #minecraft live #sims 4 #fuck ea #readme.txt

HAPPY HALLOWEEN / HAPPY FIRST ANNIVERSARY FOR VEILGUARD!

I have a much longer post planned, but I made the tragic mistake of taking on too many projects at once, so that will have to wait. BUT I wanted to pay tribute to the work I've created because this game flipped a switch in my head that I thought had rusted in place and returned my love of art and storytelling to me.

This is only a small portion of what I made. Thank you, and also I AM SO SORRY, to the developers who made this game. I know a million sorrys will never make up for what happened to you and what you had to go through to make this damn game and the bullshit you had to deal with aftewards. For whatever it's worth (likely very little) this game was kind of one of the big factors in me rediscovering purpose and joy in my life after having the soul absolutely pounded out of me by a crappy doctorate program and an almost-too-late mental illness diagnosis. Of course, I won't say that makes it worth all the bullshit, because... like... I didn't have to go through it. I just got to enjoy the end product. But. Well. It meant a lot to me. It helped me regain that spark I had as a teen playing Origins. It reminded me of who I used to be, before that spark got smothered by a tough transition to adulthood and a rapidly degenerating world. It reminds me of who I really am, and why I want to make art.

So. Uh. Yeah. Um. *awkward cyberspace shoulder pat*. Thanks. You deserve nothing but the best.
