Viktor Orbán concedes defeat as Hungary's Tisza Party heads for election win

Reply in thread

He was known in the party as someone who disagreed on many decisions made by Orbán. He also stated it was not easy to leave and/or cut ties due to mafia-like behavior, fear of his or his family's life. His wife was head of Ministry of Justice, which she was kicked out due to also going against Orbán's wishes. pardoning a pedophile, and they divorced soon after.

You have to understand that Orbán is literally an oligarch with tons of money, ties to Russia and the underworld. Magyar only quite recently collected enough support (about 2 years ago I think) to start his own political movement.

Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic”

Reply in thread

I kind of cracked up at "Steam does very little".

Hell, Epic does not have any social features, didn't have cart, refund process through support only, very basic search, I am not sure about cloud saves and if they don't break completely when you play offline (is there even offline mode?).

Steam, on the other hand, is constantly adding and improving features - like the new beta family sharing which is finally what an easy way to share with my GF and sister.

The only things that Epic has are free games, exclusivity, and lower fees - and that's about it. All three, as you can see, are not really hard to implement for the developer team, but easy to throw large sums of money at for a quick boost so they can boast numbers.

Fuck Epic, seriously. Money can solve lots of stuff, but not by throwing it at the wall. Meaningless.
