    I don’t think their success depends on non-paying customers. Like yeah, you populate the servers but as long as there are a few hundred whales that can play against each other, they won’t care. It’s been apparent for a while now, look at how long the queue time is for top players, yet they still play it.

    Oh and was it Respawn that had an interesting moment where they got mad at “freeloaders”? F2P games are very much at the mercy of monetization, aka paying customers (unless they’re also selling your data which they probably are).

    Not really “singled” out, from this article

    He also clarified in a public letter to Cohen that the pledge requires “all guests whom our guesthouse identifies as potentially having been involved in war crimes to sign the form,” including those from Burundi, the Central African Republic, Ethiopia, Mali, Myanmar, Palestine, Russia, Syria, and Sudan.

    Also, the officials aren’t huge fans apparently

    The Japan Times quoted a city official as saying WIND VILLA had not violated Japanese law, but the pledge was “inappropriate”.

    So it seems the hotel owner is worried and doing a manual check. There’s probably a better way to vet people but considering where he is idk if it’s as simple or legal
