That’s a good question with no answer

Me when I can’t see what’s in front of me

Last I checked, if you want to dual boot, you HAVE to install Windows first (or disconnect the linux drive before hand), otherwise it will mess with your boot partitions on all drives.

Windows is also prone to mess with boot partitions randomly long after the initial install, so be wary

I don’t understand. You want a game where you can go to war with countries that won’t declare war on you?

Thanks for the warning!

I’m not trying to convince you either way, but can you point to the ‘political BS’ Proton guy said that made you flip? I use Proton and also veer hard left wherever politics are concerned, and I personally think the whole thing is way overblown. I may have missed something though, happy to hear otherwise, because in my understanding all he did was soft-endorse someone who identifies as republican at the moment

Damn.

Damn

I wasn’t saying you can’t play them, just that you don’t own them. This is still true with DRM free games. GOG’s agreement is different to Steam’s in that you own your purchase

You don’t think you own every house with an unlocked front door, do you?

You’re correct, and this goes for ALL steam games

My issue with games journalism isn’t even with games journalism. Games just suck now. Specifically the big budget ones that don’t need any more press than they already pay for. There used to be a time when videogames were on track to be the next art form. I’m not saying they can’t be, or even that they aren’t already, it’s just that the artistically barren and often morally bankrupt juggernaut games are sucking up all the funding and the exposure. Games journalism has been reduced to “take a look at this game that isn’t complete trough slop” and the audience of gamers isn’t particularly receptive to that message. I wish there was more room for analysis and/or discussion, but it’s getting less sustainable every day.

I can’t remember the last time there was a well funded and appropriately successful game that had artistic intent any sort of intentionality (before BG3)

Influencers make money from the platform and in most peoples’ capitalism-riddled brain, “the government is ripping up your paycheck” is more alarming than “the government is silencing its people”.

I’m disagreeing. It’s really that simple. $60 million fewer dollars from $1 billion in revenue over 8 years (using your numbers here, please correct me if you think it’ll make your case stronger) is still about $1 billion. Any way you cut it, it doesn’t change the fact that it’s just a few cents

Okay, but, they’re already selling a product with a BOM of $20 at most for 70-90 monetary units. They can absolutely afford a few cents less of profit

You can’t bomb a place or rape its people into stability. We have 200 years of hard evidence for that (not that it was needed). Literally any other approach would be beneficial for everyone except the war profiteers

Yuzu would like to have a word

I’d only expect this from China

it’s been the first result for over a decade. If you had searched you would have found

None of that is true. You projected your feelings on a nazi saying a game they haven’t played is shit. You’re going to start thinking some day, hopefully soon

Hating minorities is nazi shit. Get over it or don’t be a nazi

I was under the impression physical copies of games were actually just licenses to download and play the real thing. It’s pretty cool to know that consoles can still play (some?) games, in case of cataclysm.
