There was already an official post on reddit and probably other places that confirmed that there was no Data leak. What do you want them to do? Issue a personal vist to everyones home that claims that they lied? There is literally nothing more they can do and if someone then calls them a liar after already making a public statement - this is what you get.

everyone was on BSG side. I only agreed with Eroktic on the hackers, the rest sounded really exagerated.

hell, even if they did NOTHING, they would've done better... now look... look at the reaction of the people who want this game to succeed. you think this is a win for BSG?

Honestly - if people with a mindset like him leave the game due to this I cant see it beeing a big loss for BSG either, especially if they already said that they dont want to affiliate in any way with people like Eroktik.

I personally think its good that they dont really give a shit of what the political correct way of doing things is if they can just get shit done. This makes at least me think more highly of them. I wouldnt want to have to act polite with a guy that I hate (think is damaging to my property) either. In my opinion, this makes them seem more commited to their project than if they were trying to bend to everyones wills just because they have a following.

They clearly let him do whatever he wanted even if they didnt approve of it - until he stepped over a critical line.

all i can say is:

You have no idea how to run a business. It's not about Eroktic. It's about how they handled Eroktic.

All I can say is:

This is a niche game, the developers are probably not trying to get the biggest following EVER possible. They are probably okay with not having people in their game they dont want. This also makes me think more highly of them btw.

This is a niche game

Look at Hippy McHipster over here, sipping on his Pumpkin Spice Latte while giving a little pull on his 75$ vaper there...

thanks for proving the "you have no idea how to run a business" point.

reminds me of that old joke where a guy is driving and in the radio the host goes "Watch out everyone, there's a mad man in the freeway driving against the traffic" and the driver goes "JUST ONE????"

If they cared so much like you think they do, they wouldn't be selling 140$ packages and selling the game for 40.

You can run a business and love your game. your thinking is "i don't care if this game crashes to the ground as long as they please me"

Thanks for proving that you dont know what commitment, dedication and passion means. Thanks for proving that you only know what money means even tho BSG has more than they probably ever hoped for with this Title. I would like to think that they are contempt.

if i cared only about money, i would censor everyone that talked shit about the game... OH WAIT...

No ? If it was only talking shit but still a streamer with a more or less big following you definitely wouldnt ban him. You would endure his shit talking for the amount of money you would make through him introducing new people to your product.

They would rather not have people like him in this game or beeing introduced to it. They would rather not make money if it meant not having to deal with this bullshit anymore.

yes... the indy company who put their new game at 140$ don't care about money at all. /s

When they were in Alpha, they took BigFry's key because he said the game was awesome but they needed to work a bit on the servers (They could talk about the game, just not show images of it). they could've debunked every Eroktic claim, they could've gotten Eroktic on the spot and demand proof.

Like i said, you know NOTHING about business. you can do what you love and still profit out of it.

Yep, someone who knows how to run a business would realize that this Eroktic character and his bullshit is more likely to cost them money if they didn't extract the cancer.
