Well now I have to leave the typo hahaha

Time to switch to lobo (supposed to be Kobo) when my current oasis dies

GoG may make some market share up with the new CA law. We’ll see. Some competition would be nice.

Won’t fix any of the always online games being bricked when the servers go offline, but still would be nice

How the heck are you just now realizing this? It’s literally always been like that. Anything digital you “buy” has always been just a license. From music on iPods, Windows, and Office to Games. It’s always been that way. Is it kind of annoying and dirty? Absolutely. But I don’t understand how people are acting surprised about this.

Thats the 3rd district. Her current district that she’s running away from to avoid running against Frisch again. The GOP is worried they’ll lose that district now. And I hope Frisch wins

Out of curiosity, what was your CEO and other executives making while claiming “it’s cause ad blockers”?

Let’s go Adam Frisch!

Man someone needs to get a class action lawsuit of as many Haitian immigrants in Ohio together as possible. Sue the fuckers

Good morning sir/ma’am I’m here to tell you about our Lord and Savior Linus Torvalds. He sacrificed his wallet to bring you a free and open operating systems. We don’t judge what flavor of Linux you use. As long as you agree that Linus saved us from Bill Gates who stole ancient secrets from the ruins of Xerox Parc and has since embraced the evil that is bloat ware.

Through Linux you can be saved!

Not a lot of need for the app. But it’s horse crap they’re ALSO removing Bluetooth.

As someone who owns a bunch of their products I’m bummed that it’s another company to not buy from anymore. It’s like every good product gets ruined by a greedy CEO

Agreed, specific issues a lot of people lean all over the place and I think more people are realizing we need social programs.

There’s a lot of issues with our shitty 2 party system. No doubt.

But I think you (and a lot of folks on lemmy) are vastly over estimating how liberal most Americans are. The country as a whole is fairly moderate (and compared to the international world, pretty conservative), and when both parties allow themselves to be controlled by the fringe edges (right or left), most Americans will lean away from the party unless they’re a brainwashed group of idiots without the ability to critically think… And those type of folks already have their orange champion.

Abstaining from voting is only going to help one group of people, and unless you enjoyed Jan 6th, that isn’t ok. I agree whole heartedly that this situation sucks. We’ve got a wanna be dictator with a real shot at the presidency and our only other choice is Joe Biden.

But there’s only been one president in the history of the country that has promoted and pushed for an overthrow of democracy, I’d vote for anyone running against him to prevent that shit from happening again. Meanwhile I’m voting for any representative and senator or local politicians who work towards a ranked voting solution. But if you abstain then you’re helping Trump get elected, you’re absolutely stupid if you think the 2 are the same, Biden is not my ideal candidate by any means, but at least he isn’t actively trying to destroy our country or literally offering to sell our future to big oil.

They’re the 3rd largest video game company and the current highest valued company (by market cap, so yeah not a perfect metric) in the world.

They became that big of a video game company by using their ridiculous amount of money to buy up a bunch of other game companies, reducing the competition but hoarding the IP. While they might not be the “only” company in town I think it is safe to say that they’re doing the most buying and consolidating

Monopolies suck.

That was my take too. “We’re spread too thin”… Then why the fuck did you buy up all these companies? Sure sounds like they just gobbled up all the good IP to hoard like a dragon on its pile of gold. Or to make sure those IPs don’t make it to Sony exclusives, wish the FTC would hang them by the balls since they’ve basically done opposite of what they promised during the mergers.

Yeah, it’ll be bad. Already felt like a F2P

Fun game, passion projects usually have that magic that you can tell someone cared about it.

But it’s very early EA, don’t expect it to be done any time soon. I’m shelving it for now so when it’s done I can enjoy the full experience

I think they came to the wrong conclusion. Yes those games were cheaper, but really they were just good, and mostly finished at launch. Didn’t feel like we were nickle and dimed for more DLC or season passes or mtxs, we got whole games that were fun.

All the big “AAA blockbuster” games anymore are reskinned, half finished versions of the last version, and the only thing they’ve put a ton of time into is analyzing how to get addicts hooked and spending the maximum amount on micro transactions.

Yeah, well they should keep it up. If they can prove in a US court that a “website is bad” they can make the same argument in the jurisdiction the website is hosted in, the Internet is great because it’s not (mostly) stuck under a single country’s thumb
