Warner Bros claims it won't profit from "charity" DLC, doesnt explain how...

"Neither Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment nor Monolith Productions will profit from any sales of the Forthog Orc-Slayer DLC regardless of the territory in which that DLC is sold."

That is single sentence statement Warner Bros gave to Eurogamer.

That's it. Does it explain how exactly? No. Does it explain what is happening to the money spent on the DLC from anywher outside the 43 states in which the $3.50/5.00 is given via the so-called "commercial coventure"? No.

Do we have even a single reason to believe them for one second? No.

Did it take Eurogamer 3 goddamn days to update their article on this subject to include the information about the excluded states and countries, just before posting this single sentence statement in an entirely different article? You betcha.


You're gonna have to forgive me if I don't just take a few words from Warner. Bros at face-value. Perhaps a journalist could do some journalism and y'know, find out whats going on instead of just copy-pasting press-releases and pretending that's journalism.


One last thing. Some have accused me of jumping the gun, saying I should have asked Warner Bros for a statement before publishing my video. To that I say, "Warner Bros issues statement to person with a Youtube channel". There's a headline you'd never ever see anywhere ever. WB doesn't give statements to people like me. They don't even give review copies to people like me you really think they'd talk to me about this? Come on, come back to reality. Statements are what you ask for when you intend to do balanced journalism. I've never claimed to be a journalist, I do some light-analysis and punditry, based on the facts as they are available. Everything said in that video was 100% accurate at the time and as far as I'm concerned until WB explains properly how exactly they are not going to profit from this DLC "regardless of the territory", the accusation remains grounded in solid fact. If they want to clean this up, they're the only ones with the power to that and their single sentence sorry excuse for a statement just convinces me further that WB might very well be the laziest company on the planet.
