Honestly, I'm not surprised he was excluded - not for reasons of his often negative tone, but for his obsession with shoehorning joystick onanism in near every video.True, it is funny. I laughed
... but not having a free press doesn't tend to end wellFirst they came for The Yamiks, and I said nothing ...
Give Yamiks an Alpha key!

You could type it all out and then upload it to YT, Star Wars opening sequence style.I'm not much of a streamer, I prefer the written word and meme to do my talking
It's in his video, available from the usual sources:
saying they only have limited keys to give away ... weird. Like they decided there are 500 members of the press / streamers, but Yamiks was 501.

Give him the key but for SOLO only.
Only give him the left leg!
He can then hop into OPEN.

PEGI 12-17 in line with the biological/mental age of his viewership, presumably.
you know i never associated it with onanism until now ... look what you have done!
now don't say anything about the rubber duck squeak, please.
Here he is making his passionate plea to FD to change their minds.
Fair enough, it does seem like a bit of a crap answer.
Although itās still pretty bad form to post the contents of that message publicly.
As if crying about it to anyone that listens is going to further ingratiate himself with FDev and get him on the list.
Simple solution. If Yamiks gets a free key, then FDev should give everyone the Cobra MK-IV.
Whether you or I care about how many viewers he has is beside the point. What Iām saying is that given his significant number of viewers is made up of their customers, they should care, at least enough to hand him a key that costs them nothing. Thatās my opinion anyway.
Itās likely Yamiks is going to purchase Odyssey regardless, but the significance of the key is that, as far as I understand it, itās given to content creators before any public release, so they can get content ready, which helps market the game and make sales.
Factabulous has posted the response from Frontier, so you can see what I mean by insulting. The denial of the key was premised on an artificial limit, and his bizarrely not being included in what they refer to as ācore content creatorsā.
It's an odd and IMHO rather silly move from FD. Of course Yamiks can just buy the alpha and make his videos anyway so it won't actually stop him reviewing and commenting on Odyssey. What they have done though is send him a thinly veiled insult (guaranteed to rile him up) by suggesting he's not a significant enough content creator whilst simultaneously sowing the seeds of a narrative that they are somehow fearful of criticism or have something to hide.
Whoever sent him that response can't seriously have expected him not to make a loud fuss about it, surely? Should have just given him a review key.

And have irate early adopters melting with rage? Nice
Bono and Bob Geldof are discussing a major event to get this put right. #KeyGate #KeyAid

I wonder how big one's head needs to be in order to find that response "insulting".
Even better: now nobody can claim he got bribed with free stuffIn fairness, all he has to do is buy a key like anyone else and then he can say what he likes. They're not silencing him - they're just not giving him a freebie.
Bit of a difference there really
