The Callisto Protocol, a single player game, has rules of conduct... and it's bad.
How has this escaped my notice for so long?!

This goes into the "I'm not even gonna pirate this" category for me.

Fun fact: you cannot tell your friends how much fun you've had while playing Callisto Protocol.

I'm just disappointed that this has escaped notice for so long. This should have garnered widespread attention and revolt, on the levels of Diablo Immoral.
Instead, I found out from a podcast episode, recorded a week ago, from a group of people whose primary focus is men's rights activism.

@alyx do they stalk their playerbase from a server? looks like it

@lottev
Not sure what's going on... I haven't looked much into the game. I think whatever legal team made this, has no clue about what the game is. From what I heard, there is no place in the game where you can enter a name/nickname, and yet this code of conduct has rules for that...
It's likely that they don't actually have any means to check that you abide by their rules, unless you Twitch stream it, but this shows that they have some toxic people employed there.
I already wasn't interested in it, this ensure I never play the game.

@alyx lol what the hell, almost looks like they hired some detached “anti-harassment” company or whatever

@lottev
I've seen people speculate that they've reused the rules from PUBG, but just edited a few of the things out, that had to do with a multiplayer game.
Someone else here said the rules came from Terraria.

Whatever the case, it sounds likely that they did hire some 3rd party, that is completely clueless about these games, but that has that "anti-harassment/anti-fun" agenda going for them.

@alyx How did the internet become so fucking gay? This is what happens when nerds are not shoved into lockers enough

@MechaSilvio
This is not the creation of a nerd. A nerd wouldn't forbid you to tweak .ini files.

This is the creation of a HR and a legal team.

@alyx @MechaSilvio Those guys are gay nerds. Worse but still a kind of nerd.
This is what happens if you don’t Shamo style dunk on these Zionist nerds for every faggy thing they say or do

@alyx And this is why single player games should be run in a container with no network access. Any questions?

@alyx Goes to show you how many people actually read that shit, Nobody is following TOS andI havn't heard of them enforcing it. Good luck trying to enforce that though. Some retard is probably seething he got told to shut up when he asked if he could purge the reviews.
:avgn: :avgn: :avgn: What were they thinking??
This shit is so vague, sounds like they can ban people for making their character spin in place for too long
@alyx Imagine paying fot this game.
NOOOOO YOU HAVE TO PLAY THR GAME THE WAY WE WANT TO!

NOOO DON'T CALL IT A "MOVIE" THIS IS INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT!
@alyx >DO NOT PLAY OUR GAME ABNORMALLY

What the fuck does that mean?
