You seem to not trust anyone except the person who wrote the article and just literally made up that part to add. That’s the only part you have faith in?
Yes, the part the writer made up. Either they share the concerns that we see a repeat of the Helldivers 2 fun, or they reacted to an article earlier with that wording. Doesn’t matter, as I cannot see the future, I have to guess. I communicated that guess.
You seem awfully aggressive to people that don’t share your view and dare to step into your line of sight. Do you always trust the official statements?
No, but I trust what a person says themselves more than another person making assumptions based off what they said. Concerns and guesses are not valid when the person has said No very clearly. Unless your stance is “trust no one about anything” then this seems a little extreme.
You’re saying your guess has more validity than what they’re saying, and they have a very clear answer. So I’ll ask an equally silly question of you, do you always value your guess over what the sources say?
What? Maybe I don’t understand your phrasing correctly. Do you mean you DO trust the official statement? No shame in that, if that’s what you want to say. Or do you want to say that you only trust the official statement if it’s the first thing you hear about something? Then it gets confusing and I don’t think you mean that.
Concerns and guesses about a persons intentions are indeed valid. I’d rather not let people punch me to learn their intentions, I’d rather keep my distance regardless of an innocent face. Metaphorically speaking. Thanks to goodeye8 I read more about the company and their stances and now think it’s valid what they say. I will still be distrusting of companies, but maybe I’ll do more research before commenting. Maybe.
Also, my guess always has precedence over anything other people state. I rather trust my eye rather than someone else’s. Again, metaphor. But my guess can be (…steered? Guided? Influenced?) when given more proof from different sources.
We start with an absence of information. We don’t know about DRM. We then have new information from an FAQ. Now I’ve not seen them lie about this before so I have no reason not to believe it right now. They could be lying sure, but anything could be. You could be AI, I could be the devs. No one knows anything is true really, we assume and work based on a level of trust. I have no reason to not believe him so I have confidence it won’t have DRM. I don’t “know” it won’t, but based on the information I have I am more likely than not to believe them.
Now we have additional information, the writer add the “at launch” bit. Now this could mean at launch as in, it will never have it, even from the start. Or it could me they might add it later, it’s a bit ambiguous but either way they just made that part up. Made up, ambiguous statements do not give me confidence one way or the other. It does not impact my perception of the situation at all. Their comment might as well have not existed IMO.
To work off your scenario of people punching you. I’d venture to guess multiple people get close enough to punch you ever day, but you trust they won’t. But anyone could. You’re operating off trust (which is based on past experience) and confidence. Same thing here. Without built or broken trust I’m neutral there, I only have confidence. Yes, they could be lying, but I don’t have evidence that they would right now, so why worry about it? It would be like walking around worried that everyone is going to punch you.
What really kinda bothers me is you did the research and found that they do have a basis for trust but still refuse to accept that. Even stating that you may make statements like this in the future without looking things up. Maybe. Why? Why spread mistrust that isn’t based in anything and might actually run counter to the facts, that’s wild to me.
I agree that you should weigh multiple sources but you held something made up by a random person as a higher standard of truth than the person actually creating the game. It’s logic of that kind that really throws me.
You mean the “at launch” part that the writer added to the article and isn’t a part of the official Saber statement? Something you’d know if you read the article past the introductory paragraph?
I’m sharing my distrust in the communication to the players based on shit that happened in the past. But thanks for the personal attack disguised as concern.
I’m just going to repeat what I said. Normal people don’t go “but what if they’re lying” any time something is said. They do it when it’s the same entity doing the saying, like if Ubisoft said they’re going to try something different normal people wouldn’t believe then, but normal people don’t generalize everyone. Just because Ubisoft or EA or ActiBliz has told lies doesn’t mean EVERY developer tells lies. It’s incredibly toxic to think everyone is lying.
Well I was looking for an engaging convo, not chat with someone doesn’t trust anyone or anything. It seems there’s no shared perception of reality we can have a conversation about, it happens.
Is “No.” an over-specific denial?
“Will this game have DRM?”
“No.”
“Why are you overly specific?”
Yep, that’s my read as well. No idea what he’s talking about.
No, it’s the “at launch” part that was added.
From the FAQ:
What “at launch” part?
The “at launch” part in the article, right there. But you can trust the nonbinding FAQ.
I’m sorry, but what part of that says Denuvo or DRM?
What, so the only promise is a statement from Saber? Nothing official? Okay
The part the writer made up?

Let me try to better explain.

Yes, that “at launch”. But you trust that FAQ, not like I want to do anything about that.
Have you considered taking therapy? Because you’re literally making up shit to hate on a game, it’s not healthy.
I’m sharing my distrust in the communication to the players based on shit that happened in the past. But thanks for the personal attack disguised as concern.
Actually I found it pretty disturbing that you’d make shit up just to throw a shade, so I’d consider the concern genuine even if poorly communicated.
Seriously, normal people don’t go “but what if they’re lying” any time something is said.
They do when lied to often. Doesn’t need to be the same source, just the same ballpark.
I’m just going to repeat what I said. Normal people don’t go “but what if they’re lying” any time something is said.

Just because Ubisoft or EA or ActiBliz has told lies doesn’t mean EVERY developer tells lies. It’s incredibly toxic to think everyone is lying.
Well your stance is “don’t trust them” because they could lie. Then why listen to anything they say at all or engage in the convo?
Interesting choices of questions. I don’t listen to what they say, I look at what they did. Hence my opinion.
Why do I engage in this convo? Not much to do on a Monday evening. Why do you engage in this convo?
Well I was looking for an engaging convo, not chat with someone doesn’t trust anyone or anything. It seems there’s no shared perception of reality we can have a conversation about, it happens.
