   Another dupe (this one from 2023). I suspect this one is
   being proffered as marketing for the upcoming "Borderlands 4"

Apparently the real reason this game was offered as a freebie last
week was in an attempt to distract from Gearbox Studios CEO Randy
Pitchford's ill-timed comments about how 'real fans' would happily pay
the $80 pricetag for "Borderlands 4".


From a recent twitter post:

"For our real fans who may be cost sensitive, the very
         awesome and incredibly fun smash hit videogame Tiny
         Tina’s Wonderlands is FREE this week on the Epic Games
         Store. Please enjoy this FREE gift by grabbing your FREE
         copy here, FREE."*

He's been trying to dig his way out of the hole he threw himself into
for weeks, and fans are having none of it. A wiser man would learn to
shut the fuck up, but Randy is not that man. I guess it's just easier
to try and bribe your way out of your own cock-ups.

I don't understand why Take Two --the company which fully owns
Gearbox-- puts up with this guy. He's been getting Gearbox into
trouble for years. Maybe Zelnick (Take Two's CEO) and Gearbox share
thumb drives?
