HeadClot: Here are a bunch of reports that say the same thing over and over. Frustration / Diffculty level with Video games cause violence not the content.
<snip>
charmer: And to that, I'd add the lags. Many players would go into a rage fit playing even Mario Kart if it were laggy. <snip>
The only problem I have with those kind of studies is that they seemingly let the content completely off the hook. Let's paraphrase: "So we did this study and discovered that frustration plays a role in increasing aggression. Therefore, we conclude the violent content itself has now 0% chance to affect anyone in any way." Not buying it.
Action video games in particular are a power-and-thrill thing. Lags, difficulty, and content are all part of the equation. How do I know that? There are countless violent isometric shooters. But for some players, shooting aliens, zombies, or soldiers is no longer good enough. They can't wait to butcher defenceless pixel-pedestrians. That by itself is the effect of Hatred right there...
charmer: Of course I read it. Didn't find it hard to digest either. Did you?

monkeydelarge: I'm starting to fall in love with Steam too so if GOG doesn't sell this game and Steam does, that is no problem for me. I just hate censorship
While you will have, as you say "no problem" getting a violent video game like Hatred on Steam, everybody in Germany and a few other countries probably will, because Steam checks their IP and locks them out. Not just from buying it on their store, even from activating an imported disc version, which is necessary in order to be able to play it. If you live in one of those countries you will have no chance to play it in a legal way. So if GOG doesn't sell this game for any other reason than censorship, that's a big deal for you. But getting it on Steam where people with the 'wrong' IP are restricted, that's no problem.
You hate censorship and fell in love with Steam - the #1 tool for censorship in PC gaming. I hope you do realize how ridiculous this is.

"I support freedom and if GoG doesn't sell this game they are saying that people have no free thought."
Or they're saying their other supporters threatened to pull out of their agreements thus crippling GoG as a site, and eventually putting themselves out of business.
Or they're saying "this particular game doesn't appeal to us"
Or they're saying "That game is disgustingly bad"
Or they're saying "what? Oh them? They never even asked us!"
But you'll assume they are targeting free thinkers because it supports your argument that anyone who doesn't think like you is against free thought. Wow. You support free thought and you're practically brainwashed. Way to go there.

In what alternate universe would this happen? If GOG carries Postal and doesn't carry Hatred, then yes, they are being hypocrites.

It's not hard to see Disney having a problem having it's products on the same shelf as a game like Hatred.

LOL. We are running around in circles here. I said what I needed to say. Repeating myself 1000 times is just a waste of time."I support freedom and if GoG doesn't sell this game they are saying that people have no free thought."

We need more games like this. Just as a middle-finger to all the hipster indies who think video games need to be some profound art-form tackling social issues, just games that are unashamedly games.
The original ref is broken, btw, as I think you know. If you do not mind, pray describe what it was. And the point of your finger flipping? We need more games like this. Just as a middle-finger to all the hipster indies who think video games need to be some profound art-form tackling social issues, just games that are unashamedly games.
As to all-in self desiring arguments, we actually need Scorch 2D emulation on Win7 - which I hope hipster indies, among many others, might love! :-D

Yes, it made no sense whatsoever. I must of looked very ignorant or stupid. Thanks to you, I HATE Steam again.

urknighterrant: Things change. GOG just landed a HUGE contract with "Lucasfilm Classics". For those of us who prefer reading news to making it up, that's Disney. It's not hard to see Disney having a problem having it's products on the same shelf as a game like Hatred.

I don't see what's the whole matter over this game, it looks stupid... but kinda appealing, and I'd like to try it out, hope there is more alternative scenarios, like wannabe heroes or serious police force, oh and lets hope they don't go for "realism" as no man no matter how badass he may look would take on the entire police department using regular clothes, long jacket and long black hair, so that would defeat the whole "realism" thing.
On the violence seen in the trailer... I've seen worse, a digital man begging for his life and getting his head blown off isn't going to shock me, there's plenty of worse media material out there from the real world, enough to make some people sick.
