PR coverage, not a Wikipedia article

Several instances of the page clearly show a pro-xsolla, biased view.

"Xsolla is pursuing its strategic goal to gain a significant market share in both European, American and Asian regions by providing new services. Xsolla assisted many famous game companies such as Perfect World In November 2013 to self-publish its latest game, Neverwinter, on the Russian market."

This is a great example, as it reads like a marketing piece.

Someone should also include the delightful disclamer that all of the EU is declared the same in the EULA (https://xsolla.com/eula) [unfortunately no easier to read version availible as far as I can tell.]

I can take a crack at it but I fear my view isn't as objective as I think it might be. 158.36.141.162 (talk) 10:58, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

Nice self editing XSolla, the tips were not optional and were added to all charges, and the tip goes nowhere but to yourself. Censoring any critiscism of yourself isnt the Wikipedia way — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:B234:BF00:F414:7472:702F:B383 (talk) 12:24, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Clarifying Criticism section

I'm with Xsolla's pr team and would like help adding a clarification/update to the Criticism section of the article:

On August 21, 2017 Xsolla removed the "tips" option and they are no longer in use. See update at https://xsolla.com/faq/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pgharris11 (talk • contribs) 2017-09-05T16:21:00 (UTC)

Criticism

In August 2021, CEO and founder, Aleksandr Agapitov fired approximately 150 employees based on network usage data, writing on Twitter “Work your fucking ass off or get your fucking ass out.” This move was described as like a "Bioshock villain" in part because of the "bizarre" tone of the email, because the CEO doubled down on Twitter and promised to repeat this action every six months, and because the metrics used (network activity) are not closely related to developers core job functions.
