🚨do you understand what happened to Subnautica 2..
a game that was genuinely loved. Very Positive reviews. record player counts. people were excited.
then they read the EULA.
- you don't OWN the game, you have a LICENSE that can be revoked anytime
- they collect your personal data and device information
- streaming and recording require disclaimers
- mods you create inside their game - they have legal claims over
- VPN use is banned
- disputes go to arbitration in California only
- they can change ANY of these terms whenever they want without asking you
people started requesting refunds not because the game is bad - but because they finally READ what they agreed to.
the game industry has been doing this for years. Subnautica 2 is just the first time enough people paid attention.
We are heartbroken to hear about the passing of our friend, Mackenzie Rowles, Camelworks.
Over the years, Mackenzie has been a source of light and love in our community and a friend to everyone who met him.
Camel, we are thankful for every moment we spent with you at every event, every lunch, and celebration.
You will be missed but you're forever in our memories.
