This is actually pretty accurate.
Yeah, I'm surprised how much it fits
Greed applies to all of these companies let's be honest.
Greed could encompass most of the 7 sins.
Lust - Greed for sex
Sloth - Greed for relaxation
Gluttony - Greed for food
Envy - Greed of others stuff
The only two that don't really fit under greed is pride and wrath
Greed, the character from FMAB, has an interesting take on this concept. He extends the concept to call the idea of the heroes winning completely (i.e. they get their bodies back, defeat the bad guys, no one dies) to be a form of greed, and the idea of greed is independent of morality.
You could call this unhelpful broadening of the concept of greed, but I think it's an interesting reframing of something people usually think of very negatively.
Greeed
YOU COUNT THE MEDALS ONE TWO AND THREE...
That's kind of companies work. The problem is when the company becomes the industry standard.
Basically go for smaller companies and generic brand products. They are better sometimes anyway.
There should be a memorial for victims of EA (all the studios they have acquired and then shut down), similarly to the Victims of Communism memorial.

Damn I didn't know they killed hangouts
All four people who used it must've been devastated
I get all of these but lust for blizzard, anybody care to explain it to me?
Sexual harassment cases at Blizzard.
Oh yeah now I remember...
I love how they responded to that by changing McCree's name (I'll call Robotnik Eggman before I pretend Cole Cassidy isn't the most generic shit I've ever heard) and then censoring the hell out of World of Warcraft
Two things that didn't really need to happen... and I love how basically no one, not a soul, honors the new name of Jesse McCree
Maybe the Crosby Room has something to do with it?
Damn that Cosby room will haunt them forevermore
Why is the Nintendo logo AI generated?
It’s not AI generated, it’s AI upscaled because the original was very low resolution and I was to lazy to remake the meme
Fair enough.
That's for upscaling and not uploading memes in shit res though!
Maybe to avoid copyright claims
Probably so they have a defense when Nintendo sends a cease and desist order for using their logo.
They probably are already dead
To escape their wrath.
The other logos are weird as well. Might be some upscaling at work here.
What's the sin where you can't count to 3?
Denying The Trinity, heresy
Alright, I normally show up to these to be the voice of reason and moderation...
...but no, this one kinda tracks, actually. Carry on.
Ninlondo
Ninlondo Ruins
Ninlendo!
They were there at the dawn of the third generation of video games.
can anybody explain the konami part to me? I am out of the loop.
Konami published a lot of games that had potential but they didn't really take them anywhere.
Could also be they fired Kojima because they just wanted to release Metal Gear themed pachinko machines and Kojima wanted to make more ambitious and original games.
thanks! i remember castlevania holding out but the others probably ended out as pachinko bait
They keep releasing collections and new games are all outsourced.
Sloth should be Bethesda.
did you ai generate every single one of those logos
It’s not AI generated, it’s AI upscaled because the original was very low resolution and I was to lazy to remake the meme
Slutty slutty Blizzard
What's the connection between Blizzard and Lust?
A "boys club" scandal a couple years ago where the male higher-ups only hired women who would tolerate being sexually abused. Some ex-employees described it as "company culture" that propagated for a decade or more. There was an investigation after some women spoke out that led to a lawsuit, several top level managers being fired, and a couple CEOs being scrutinized really hard.
All of this is off the top of my head and maybe somewhat inaccurate, but that's the gist of it.
Multiple sexual harassment claims and lawsuits, including incidents of stolen breast milk.
- Alleged cubicle crawls where drunk employees go cubicle to cubicle harassing females.
- Multiple C suites resigning due to personal indiscretions.
- A "Cosby" suite
- Suicide due to extreme harassment
- Multiple allegations of breast milk missing from office fridges.
You can't make this shit up.
Maybe like Overwatch and sexualized characters
You know, I remember there being a video about this. Like a long format video essay in which nintendo was the last videogame company to be mentioned and the sin was pride.
I don't remember who made the video, but I think it was super eyepatch wolf or another youtuber with a similar style. I tried looking for the video but I couldn't find it. It was really good.
I remember EA was greed, Valve was Sloth. And l think Bethesda was lust(? (Because of constant harrassment allegations in their offices or something like that), but the narrator kept reminding the audience that all game companies were all guilty of the same sins.
T'was really interesting
Is it maybe Game Companies Are NOT Your Friends by The Cursed Judge?
OMG yes!! Thank you, that's precisely the video I was talking about
This was obviously made by a Sony fan boy
Lots of words that really just mean Greed (Glutton, Lust, Envy).
It's like people have known for thousands of years that greedy people are the fuckin worst
That’s because the sins are about exerting your will over others’/the community’s benefit and we use greed to mean wanting. Pride is greed for accolades, sloth is greed for rest, wrath is greed for emotional release.
Exactly. Greed fucking sucks
I could think of why each one is assigned, but I couldn't figure out why Ubisoft is pride. Any ideas?
My thoughts: they pridefully use the same formula in each of their open-world games, thinking consumers won't recognize that Far Cry's gameplay is basically AC with guns and a different story.
Possibly because they refuse to admit that they are being obtuse.
Wouldn't EA be more Pride? Y'know, Pride & Accomplishment and all that jazz?
I spent far too much time trying to picture e.g. Captain Meliodas as Nintendo...
Sloth goes better with Valve imo.
No, lord Gaben will bless us all in his own good time.
No, valve still makes games, Konami outsources it.
