@AmyZenunim The silliest part, for me, is when I see people trade off money for control and try to justify it with money... like when Ubisoft said their anti-piracy software was a success (after a bunch of controversy) and Eurogamer was like "Oh really? Huh. How did it affect your sales?" "Oh, sales? That's down 90%." (And then PC Gamer jumped in.)

I remember in the 00s-10s he was a veritable fountain of bad takes
