It’s still not a convincing one though. If it wasn’t this weapon used, it would have been another, regardless of where the perp first saw it. I’m not a fan of Activision, but this isn’t on them.

Oh, I’m not disagreeing at all. Even with all the evidence that video games aren’t the problem, it’s a convenient scapegoat to point a finger at while ignoring those who actually need to be held accountable.

Every time I think we’ve moved passed this as an argument, it pops back up. They’ll blame anything but those they should be holding accountable.

People have always blamed video games for violence, even all the way back to Columbine. This isn’t a new argument.

The IP reason is such a stupid argument in my opinion, because most of the time the company either ends up doing fuck all with it, or teases with a possible return only to say “lol jk nevermind”.

I have various lists here and there, like one for everything I have on Steam, one for Epic, one for GOG, another for games I’m playing through GamePass.
Don’t even get me started with the physical binders I have dedicated to achievement hunting, maps, and notes. So, I get it.
