I just thought some might like to watch his video or someone i often watch SidAlpha as they talk about this big time scam.

The terms of service is where it gets really nasty.I picked Kira's video because he touches on the scummy deceiving "influencers"that try and get people hooked on this scam.

We seriously need new laws governing influencers as their only goal is to deceive the consumer.


Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Is it really any worse that AoC and their referral program that gives Influencers and players 15% of all purchases payable in CASH, in perpetuity for anyone that uses their code?

    Its just funny that over the past decade, its become less about selling products and more about selling ideas. Desperate fools make the best customers I guess. Then again, I guess it isn't that surprising when people started paying money to test games. Its only a matter of time until it got to this. The 'smart ones' in this regard were the content creators since they just recoupe the money via views etc. Just like how most wow creators were talking about how garbage BfA was yet they were staying subbed. Why? Because it was paying the bills. Hell, even making a video talking about how trash it was, was making them money. Couple that with 'big developers' defining 'development' as creating problems just to sell you the solution.

    All of this, while most people ignore the biggest scam of it all: platforms. We dont own games anymore, we just pay to rent them. People never think about what happens if steam/epic/etc go down. Then what? There was the whole big thing when EA was banning people, which also made it so they couldn't access their own library, just because they were cheating or whatever on one game. Hell, even if you somehow had a 'physical' game, it would still need a day 1 patch (Fallout 4 was the best example of this). Its just funny that we're paying more money and getting less. At least 10-15 years ago, we were paying 50-60$ to own something. But it is what it is I guess.
