@Nutzor @ResEvilDude It says "In it's official language". So we are talking about Suomi, not Finland.

@OKAMI_VILL @condiricenbeans The tweet was asking for silly nitpicks. I think most fans know that.

@BoomBoxPanda @nocontextmemes What do you mean? An African or European swallow?

Amazon axing the new STARGATE series because it was supposedly too niche is such a frustrating executive decision.

This is STARGATE.

The original movie launched in 1994. STARGATE SG-1 ran for 10 seasons. STARGATE ATLANTIS ran for five more. Fans have kept this franchise alive for decades.

Martin Gero, who wrote on SG-1 and ATLANTIS, was developing the new series. Brad Wright and Joe Mallozzi were consulting producers.

People who understood the franchise were involved.

And Amazon apparently got nervous that the show would appeal too much to STARGATE fans.

That is insane.

Die-hard fans are not the problem. They are the bridge.

They tell friends to watch. They explain the premise. They build word of mouth before casual audiences ever show up.

Studios keep wanting legacy IP without the people who actually love it.

But that “baggage” is the audience.

STARGATE does not need to be sanded down for everyone.

It needs to be good enough that fans bring everyone else in.

🚨 Today, They Are Meeting Without Us.

🏛️ The @EU_Commission is 2 weeks away from a resolution that could decide the future of game ownership. While we are fighting for the consumer, @videogames_EU is hosting an event 'Games in Europe: Built Here, Played Globally' filled with industry giants and the very policymakers who will decide our fate.

⏰ The timing is just impossible to ignore.

🙌 @StopKilingGames drafted an Open Letter to ensure the industry hears the community’s voice, but we know a letter is only as strong as the people who share it. We would love for you to help bring this into the public eye, in whichever way fits your platform best:

@WeaponScientist First of all it was a cool set piece needed for the third movie. But if you want to find a in universe explanation you could say that they had to get the infrastructure in place to build the first one + I'm guessing not having to hide from the senate anymore helps too.

@Sawyer_DAA People just complain about everything on here

[Turmio @Turmio1]

@pnwguerrilla I'm from Finland and I think that looks beautiful! I hate how everything has to be so divisive. So much hate and discord being thrown around. I hope people go enjoy nature wherever it may be, and forget about the internet hate machine for a while.

@HalfNelsonLynx @DoesItPlay1 Thank you! Never heard those acronyms before

@_runescimitar I usually pirate games if they are not available on physical or GOG and then buy them once they become available. That way i don't have to buy them twice or wait.

@Hazeludw I felt like I didn't want to put that weight on other people. Thankfully I finally opened up to a friend before it was too late.

@joe543342837253 @LambdaGen You have to be realistic. This is a win!

California State Assembly passes the 'Protect Our Games Act'

"games released after January 1, 2027, must provide at least 60 days' notice before terminating service [...] and ensure users can continue accessing the game (providing an alternative version or a patch) or refunds."

@incogles @Dexerto Thats awesome! I'm not attacking Mark in particular, I'm just not a fan of the practise and I guess I saw a place to lash out lol. I love that he is doing a proper physical release! 👍

[Turmio @Turmio1]

@sethecityablaze @Dexerto Okay that is cool! 👍
