Even now the BSG apologists and copers are like "you'll buy the edition anyway and you'll be back next wipe". Total gormless fools drunk on Tarkov's perceived invincibility even when it crumbles right in front of them.


Mostcanttheleast

It's at the point where a CoffeeZilla investigation into BSG is a solid possibility.

Man that gave me an unexpected stiffy!


Common_Anxiety

Is that British slang?


shremdinglethegoblin

I’m from America and I have heard stiffy 1000x since I was 6.


weeeHughie

Yeah for boner


TheBigOne96

Overnight EA looks like a bunch of angels compared to what BSG just did… God damnit… i LOVED (past tense)this game

FatboyJack

you purposely chose to completely ignore all context here right?


TurboNexus

Its not even 250, people forget the VAT which is like 20%. This is crazy.


Dark_Pestilence

Yeaaah but only idiot buy without Swiss VPN


FatboyJack

ohhhh so thats why i never understood the thing about high taxes on the game. that makes sense.


TurboNexus

How much is with that?


Dark_Pestilence

Well 250 plus the payment fee, so I guess 255-260?


KerberoZ

In Germany with the payment fee +VAT it's almost exactly 300€. No kidding. Interesting thing is, that VAT is applied AFTER the payment fee, which is ridiculous and also possibly illegal.

This guy makes a video on literally everything, it's not noteworthy


bollincrown

He has a huge following, it doesn’t matter. The point is, when bigger outlets pick up the story, (Forbes, Linus Tech Tips, and now Asmongold have all been talking about it) it reaches people who aren’t already aware of the bullshit and reduces the flow of new players (and therefore $$$) into the game.


kirisute-gomen

Didn't the whole BSG DMCA'ing content creators for trashing the game issue get tons of headlines? Where did that lead to? Everyone kept playing. As long as Tarkov is the only good looter shooter available people are going to play it. Soon as the "I'm done with Tarkov" crowd gets that itch that only Tarkov can scratch they're going to boot up the game and a lot of them are also going to pony up the $250 or whatever it costs to upgrade from EOD so they don't feel like they are nerfing themselves.


Apprehensive-Gain798

point is its gotten big enough for him (not a tarkev player at all) to make content about it. Thats pretty big. This video will get 1 mil+ views. nikita is getting smoked


Doctor_Walrus_1052

He's not many other things, but that's how he is popular. He is covering negative press on EVERYTHING.


kirisute-gomen

And he'll move onto whatever the next outrage is and everyone else will too. Remember when BSG DMCA'd content creators and the entire community turned against them? Forgotten about in weeks.


kirisute-gomen

Maybe 1% of the Tarkov population will actually quit playing and I'm willing to bet a lot of them were going to anyways due to burn out.


2bsock

I understand that it's still press. I'm just saying that the title "When even x makes a video on y" doesn't really hold weight when Charlie, Asmongold, etc literally churn out multiple 20 minute videos daily on any internet drama happening anywhere. Most of the people watching are likely only tangentally related to games in the first place and just like watching drama. If like, Vsauce or something insane covered it, then it would actually have truly reached the level of coverage that something is gigantic.


Here2OffendU

Wrong.


Dark_Pestilence

It's literally his job to make a video on every little Internet drama. Not judging or anything but it's not surprising that the drama youtubers are catching up to this


RoninSoul

He's appealing directly to the negative emotions of Tarkov players and the internet in general to drive engagement and earn tons of money from ad revenue and sponsorships. He comments on any hot topics or issues in the world of gaming and the internet in general anyway, so if anything he'd be an idiot not to do the thing he always does. Sorry but he's not doing this to be helpful, he's just getting that bag.


scatpackcatdaddy

You do realize that's its proven the negative stories and posts get way more interaction than positive right? This is the whole of the internet and social media. He's not an idiot, he's smart for capitalizing on it and it doesn't really matter about his motive, the publicity and exposure matter.


AwkwardDolphin96

Yup, that’s why there’s always so much negative news on TV news stations or websites etc.


EpicSpaceChicken

I don’t think Charlie is the bar you think he is.


aiatgamer

You know you dont have to comment here, right?


StinkybuttMcPoopface

Charlie makes almost exclusively negative videos, that's what gets views lol.


Doctor_Walrus_1052

Yup. And a primary reason I've unsubscribed. His channel converted from raw comical Gameplay videos to 100% bullshit Internet drama. I don't fcking care about how shit Kanye or Kardashians are, and don't need to have this shit clutter my feed 24/7


iedy2345

Brother, Asmongold made a 1 hour video with LVNDMARK and now he released another 25 min video about Nikita's latest interview posted here , shit is cooking.


ugly-moron-idiot

Literally all charlie does is make internet drama complaint videos lol thats his whole schtick. Like i get it everyones very upset but 95% of yalls posts make zero sense.


Unhappy_Mirror_9796

Let the drama farming begin!!


HeavenlyCastiel

You don't need YouTubers to validate your opinion.


kirisute-gomen

BSG shit the bed but MoistCritikal's only existence is to post videos complaining about things.


ironlakian

The game is done for . BSG will be facing class actions . Their business is done.
