Sure they are, you have to properly message what you are saying. Attacking customers is stupid, even if your customers are stupid, bigots, and etc. You still need them to buy, so you have to change how you say things, how you message, and sell.

This type of thinking is exactly why this country is in shambles.

If a company knows people are being irrational then they should not bend to the will of irrational people. EA should not have made those comments, they shouldn't have said anything to be honest.

But they also shouldn't force dice to change their creative vision over people acting like bigots.

If you think games companies should just cater to white men then this conversation isnt going anywhere, agree to disagree.

If your customer base is irrational, you cater to them because you don't exist without them. AGain this shyt isn't hard to understand, entertainment doesn't exist without a customer base to entertain, even in their delusion.

Yes you change your product if you need it to sell, your business is selling product, not "proving" shyt.

I told you what I think, it isn't hard to understand exactly what I think because I've written it clearly. You cater to your customers because your customers are the only reason you exist as a company. You do not flush millions of dollars down the drain by antagonizing your customer base, if you do that you deserve to be fired by the upper management and if it was authorized by upper management the board should replace the CEO.

Its a business, not a charity/

We'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. Catering to your customers is the last thing that has this nation in shambles.
People being bigots, having no respect for their neighbors, and the race to co-opt government to force their beliefs on others seems to be a bigger deal,imo.

so african, asian, euro and latin gamers behave the same way? ....... not from my experience
No you're definitely right there with Cacs:pachaha:

But I think it's just the competitive, anonymous nature of the medium in general that turns people into shytbags regardless of race

Like I told you before, if you think game developers should cater to bigots then this conversation isnt going anywhere.

Let's reopen coal mines because idiots refuse to adapt to the times. Your absolutely right, this thinking is exactly why this country is in the state it's in and will never get better.

Business over morals, decency and common sense.

So by your logic capitalism and bigotry are completely independent of one another?

Yep you can be a capitalist and not a bigot and you can be a bigot and a socialist, history has shown this.

An election isn't the same as selling a good or service, but hey logic be damned, you feel justified and thats the only thing that matters right.

History actually disagrees with you
