11 days agoYeah I’ve been really annoyed with modern “news reporting” and this article is no different. The store went down for like, a few hours. It was no biggie. It’s frustrating to me how the news exaggerates headlines like “gamers angry as…”, “outrage as”, “fury as” etc. Like they’re telling people to be angry if they aren’t already; telling them they should be.
I’m not angry. It’s a massive achievement on Team Cherry’s part. A team of three launched a game so in demand that it bought a service ran by a major corporation to its knees. I think this happened in huge part thanks to them actually pricing the game reasonably. Massive props to them.
According to the Apple Store app; if I trade in my 14 Pro Max 256gb they’ll give me $500 off. So if you imagine a newer phone plus higher storage it’s highly feasible this isn’t a mistake.
Edit to add context that my phone is in great condition
