Flats is so close to understanding why streaming services are bad and dont need more competition, no matter how many streaming services appear they will never have disney or fox, crunchyroll has all of funimation and other anime. These exclusive deals are not going away just because a new service shows up and happens to have some 30 year old tv series on that the rest of them also have
To add to this Netflix popped off at the start cause it had everything, now that it’s all so spread, they are no longer competing with streaming services, they have made piracy the better cheaper option again.
That's what they said about Netflix when it first came out. Netflix only had old movies and shows on there but the convenience is what made it king. When a streaming service comes along with the majority of programs on it, it'll win out.
To add to this Netflix popped off at the start cause it had everything, now that it’s all so spread, consumers don’t like the competition, unsub from all of them cause it’s cheaper to view those shows by other means RUclips doesn’t want me to mention.
@@ghostyun8832 You Overwatch players are fucking strange I've been taking a break from the game since 2018ish when content and communication essentially stopped... but the communication you guys are getting and the patch frequency (there was literally a patch yesterday, on a Friday, right after the previous patch last week) is better than it has quite literally EVER been, yet you alllllllllllllll do nothing but complain. Its like the entire community wants to be a martyr over OW2 and the canceled PvE, which prolly would have sucked anyway.
0:03 As a tank main (Help) I’ve noticed a massive sudden increase in toxicity towards tank players this season. The last match I played there was a Junkrat on my team named kitty that immediately started flaming me before we even spawned. What’s worse is that they’re usually feeders that overextend to all hell and get mad at the tank for not Liferweaver gripping them or some bs miracle. Like, sorry I don’t have a Zarya bubble for you every three seconds when you decide to play ring-around-the-rosie inside their Sojourns disrupter while getting absolutely annihilated by their backline.
Feel like the whole competition thing is like an "on paper, it should work like this and be a good thing," but being real, hard to know if that's true since people will open their wallets for anything, especially if it's for convenience/novelty/popularity ("the safe pick" regardless of price because everyone knows of it and uses it). For me personally, it's like how Emongg said, it's just a hassle for me to keep track of things. I'm not really on the page where i'm expecting companies to step up their games against one another when it's mostly just "here are some annoying exclusive content spread across tons of the same type of service."
@@imkjvc2302 it isn't legal either, its just much harder to prove compared to actual monopolistic anti-competitive tendencies. You can see if a company in-writing buys and dismantles competition before they grow big, but you can't see in-writing if multiple major players under the table agree to price fixing and industry-wide business strategies cus there's never actually a physical transaction that takes place.
6:12, as a dev, makes absolutely no sense lmao. They would just hook into the damage value that is being dealt, and display that... you wouldn't build a system that shows static values that you would then have to update.
14:10 I hope the devs in chat see this moment and rework Wifeleaver. "bad pulls dont exist you're just constantly out of position and you should kiss your LW's feet" -the LW mafia, probably
The #1 Reason why they Should not Remove Chat is that theres others game modes that uses them (Custom Games) , not everything is related to Comp... but it should be Off by Default so people are Less Toxic... *Kind of like having Profile Private...
4:00 Wow, what a blast of nostalgia hearing the Monkey Target music as the back track. Used to spend hours on that mini game flying around try to hit the toughest target. Sensational OST selection. 👌
This is why you don't bother paying for any streaming service and instead pick and choose what you want and sail the high seas. For Americans they get bombarded by way more streaming services than others, but for Europeans, it's basically Netflix, Amazon or Dicksney +, a very very small amount bother with apple tv or anything else.
It's actually genuinely scary how many people don't understand the fundamental concept of what freedom of speech is. It simply means you won't be legally prosecuted for expressing an opinion. But it also doesn't defend you against how other people react to the way you express your opinion, and it doesn't give you an entitlement to express your opinion within the confines of privately owned establishments or media, such as videogames or SoMe platforms. There can be consequences to expressing your opinion, just not legal ones enforced by the government or a publicly instated law enforcement agency.
Real-life gun duels should come back to the USA. They'd get to "legally" use their guns against each other as so many wish to, and the rest of the world may be able to sit and laugh about that
I agree how the increase of competition for streaming services has ruined the actual quality of the content and increase of reboots and decrease of actual original ideas
Personally, I think global and team text chat is a fine thing to remove, but you should keep group chat and ping into text! These are actually helpful, pings just like in League go to text and lets you read what they were saying. Group text allows friends without mics to still communicate!
I've played ow2 for like 500 hrs. Yesterday for the first time I had someone NICELY ask for a mercy pocket. Our tank was getting rein diffed, the pocket did not help lol.
I only think that competition is bad when it leads to oversaturation of something. That said, oversaturation means that it becomes the prime time to innovate on existing things.
My people have a name for folks who talk shit in chat but won’t get on the mic and say it (or who type “tank diff” right as the match is ending when they have 2 total kills): we call them “bitch made”.
12:00 onwards they’re talking about Oligopolies, similar to monopolies but not illegal. Well worth looking into if you want to find out how company’s screw you over with loopholes. Examples of Oligopolies would be phone providers, ISPs, travel companies like flats mentioned etc. well worth educating yourself on how capitalism has gone way too far
There's only one example of 'too much competition being bad' that I can think of, and it's for the Minecraft modloader scene. People generally want all their mods in one place, under one modloader, but with the development of Neoforge, that's one extra modloader that the poor mod makers have to account for in order for their mods to be played. These modloaders don't really offer much in terms of uniqueness, so to speak, and yet are further splitting apart the mod maker community by forcing people to choose which mods they want and which mods they don't, because it's likely that mods will become more modloader-specific as time goes on.
The amount of people who don't understand freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. You can't yell fire in a crowded place or you'll go to jail. You can't say racist shit in the middle of the office or you go to jail. You're never free from the consequences of being an a hole.
Depends on the Rock... hehe... have you Seen the Rocks near the Ocean some of them have Really Nice Raimbow-ish Colors. or how about the Grand Canyon Rocks they are Real RED these days...
Yes if they just remove more features the game will be good. Why do they have to record all of our text and voice chats if they cant ban the ppl slurring anyways? Also in my experience there are way more normal ppl in chat than assholes so youre really talking about punishing the majority bc of a few bad apples.
How are people gonna call me the nword for dying on tank if text chat gets removed? Silly flats you forgot to take into consideration all the slur enjoyers who play this game
Valve making a new 6v6 hero shooter, thats fucking gross. Its not like Valve already has a Class-based (Hero) Shooter, that has the main competitive scene being 6v6. Of course I love any new game to the genre, but when its Valve. I feel kind of betrayed as a tf2 enjoyer. They could totally just go back to making updates for tf2 and the community would get so happy. Old players would return. If it was another studio doing the new hero shooter. then I would have absolutely 0 problem with it. But when its valve its just wishing tf2 had an actual dev team and not a cactus. (the cactus is not being hyperbolic, the tf2 dev room has a cactus) I also didn't bring tf2 up bc "oooo tf2 vs overwatch" no thats cringe. I love both games, I play both games and I made friends on both games that I'd know for the rest of my life.
I think instead of removing freedom of speech cus that’s what you’d be doing by removing text chat. They need remove leaderboards or they need to put more stats on the leaderboards so we know teammates are actually playing correctly instead of just watching them baby sitting them
It would literally not be removing freedom of speech. That is a right relevant only to the United States Government. Blizzard is not the United States Government.
How people equate removing chat to removing freedom of speech is utterly ridiculous. A closer comparison would be if Blizzard made it a policy to straight up instantly ban you for saying that Blizzard is a bad company in any shape or form, now that'd be closer to removing freedom of speech, but still barely. Freedom of speech is the right to express yourself and express critique through speech, writing, or other media. Removing chat doesn't remove that right, not even close. Absolutely ridiculous that a basic human right such as freedom of speech even makes it into these conversations. Blizzard has no legal obligation to allow you to chat to others through a text chat, voice chat, or any similar communications medium, but a lot of people do like to have that option. Let's also not forget that threatening people and similar activities are not protected under freedom of speech in most, if not all, places where it exists.

at this rate, streaming services will eventually become streaming channels. akin to tv. just in the internet

Anytime anyone blames someone they are likely projecting/meaningless/wrongly identifying the problems (unless 0/7 or 3/15 type statline).
This was an exception though, if someone really is afk running around and ISNT dc’ing / doing it unintentionally, that’s something to be toxic about

Competition is nice only applies when its done right and they dont just merge into a mega monopoly. Which they do.
also price fixing and content share clauses is a major thing that ensures true competition rarely becomes a thing.
flats using his business major for one video
They have formed in i forma cartel dude, price fixing is hard to prove but easy to observe
In business they’re known as Oligopolies, similar to a monopoly be not illegal (somehow)

Educating on what freedom of speech means isn't a political stance. It's just a fact on how the laws work.
how about you go have human interactions outside so playing a video game doesnt upset you so much.
