there were wars yes. “totally wiping another out” tho? that was a european import.

even if it was the case that First Nations were genociding each other (which again, it’s not), that still doesn’t justify european colonialism in any way.

IDGAF if Newell is a Epstein-class helo-pad yacht billionaire.

that’s the problem, you should give a fuck about this! as well as valve’s history of promoting gambling, and the superprofits they get by overcharging publishers (especially indie devs which don’t get the special reduced rates bigger publishers get). don’t overlook all of this because they run a cool platform you like!

it’s mélenchon, for those who were wondering

yea gog can fuck off but the way they do games distribution is how it should be for everyone imo

we need offline, drm-free installers and games that are not tied to the storefront you bought them in

physical versions could be offered for those, i think it would be cool! but it’s not necessary imo. as long as it’s preservable and transferable, it’s good.

are you going to agitate your fist at your strawman until you die?

anyways, so true bestie, liberal governments would never allow dangerous pesticides

“i am angry at the company who’s killing physical distribution on console. to comfort myself i’ll glaze the company who killed physical distribution on pc”

???

announcing this the same day as the phasing out of physical discs is… a choice lol

that’s what i hate the most about this. “retro gaming and second hand” works now because everything was physical back then, and could be preserved. what will the people of the future have of us? nothing but memories of what will then be a digital graveyard. most of it unpreserved, even through piracy, because consoles are getting harder and harder to hack and emulate and companies are getting more and more litigious.

any company born after 1993 can’t make good products… all they know is exploitation, fire their workers, enshittify, be pink capitalist, eat hot cash & lie

(yes i know sony was founded before 1993 thank you)

so has every other major OS fwiw, including linux and two of the big BSDs

i fucking hate the future

what would even be the point of a ps6 really? in terms of graphics i feel like we’ve reached diminishing returns…

it’s just new hardware for the sake of it, to enable games that are even less optimized and look (& most importantly, play) almost identical to games released 10 years ago on hardware with a fraction of the power (and a fraction of the energy consumption…)
