Seemingly in hopes of finally settling the protracted brawl over his suggestion that a "real fan" would find a way to pay $80 for Borderlands 4 if it does end up hitting that price point, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford posted a veritable diatribe explaining what he was "trying" to say, the "shitty look" his post created, and his thoughts on rising game prices.
Ironically, this all started with another, comparably lengthy tweet about how Twitter interactions can spiral out of control on a platform that actively encourages outrage. "I mean, thanks for playing my games and thanks for the engagement and all that but, boy howdy, some of you really need to find some perspective and chill the f out," Pitchford said.
