Involving the MasterCard Mafia in your puritanical crusade is next to criminal. The only solution is to [CONTENT REMOVED FOR VIOLATING RESTRICTIONS AGAINST ADVOCATING VIOLENCE].

Man, I knew it was only a matter of time but I didn't think it would be this bad, this soon.
Fear & Hunger is a goddamn masterpiece. Yes, it has depictions of nonconsensual sexual acts. It's in keeping with the lore of a world that is truly fucked even beyond our reality. It's an integral part of the worldbuilding, and it is by no means glorified.

Maybe we should retaliate.

What I see is a new niche opening up for a website offering game sales through alternative payment processors.

If only there was a method of paying people in a private and decentralized way, possibly maybe even... cryp"SCAM!"
"SCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM"
sits back down
edit: fuck American fascism! hugs the dollar for dear life
so which is it?

I think the biggest problem is getting any crypto which usually involves an exchange which is also dependent on the payment processors you are trying to avoid

"Man, I don't understand why unregulated currencies are unpopular! I'm going to dismiss the heaping mountain of examples of it being abused with no possible recourse as just people being unreasonable in their dislike! That'll convince the masses!"

Called it. Soon all we’ll only be able to play baby games like Elmo’s big adventure puzzle book land, or something like that.

Yeah, I'm just going to a riot instead, like God intended

Fear and Hunger appears to be back.

If people had used cryptocurrency as a currency instead of as a "it's totally not a security, we swear, even though we're only saying that to evade SEC regulations a little longer" there'd be a lot fewer people calling it a scam.
For sixteen years, crypto's only use cases seemed to be buying illegal goods and securities fraud. Finally, we have another use case presenting: perfectly legal transactions that credit card companies have gotten cold feet about.

I got robbed!
blames the currency
"God forbid I take responsibility for my own recklessness!"

First, I don't understand why processors give a fuck. Do they imagine people are going to just stop using credit in protest of how other people spend their money? Tell me another fucking joke.
Second, I'm not a game developer, but I suddenly want to make a horror game that includes graphic, exploitive, gratuitous depictions of everything they complain about. And name the game Collective Shriek.

Not every country has a corrupt securities administration. Don't push your third-world Americanism on others like its their problem.
Riiiight, let the fascists lead by example? lmao

The issues are layered but the core aspect is that everyone can get scammed and banks have protections for getting your money stolen while crypto doesn't.
But the more visible issue is just how the unregulated aspect of it being used to scam people predominantly has marred the topic for so many people to the point where people just want to stay away from it all. If anything I think it ends up being a good example for how people need regulation and we can't just have anarchy because people will take advantage of other people.
To add a metaphor, sure it's not the gun that does the killing it's the human, but regulating how the gun gets used does help with gun deaths a lot.

What does it have to do with monkeys ?
NFT is a very small subset of "Cryptos".
On a more serious note, you really do prefer VISA MasterCard to dictate what is to be censored or not rather than using crypto currencies ?

The worm that keeps getting put into payment processor's brains is that they might somehow be held criminally liable for games people purchase. It's like telling a bus driver that they might be liable because they gave a ride to someone who robbed a store.

So that's how it works. Maybe people should also start harassing payment processors for weapon purchases, buying fossil fuels, oversized SUVs and whatnot until they stop caring.
