At the same time, everyone can profit from your work and you can’t do anything about it. And big businesses, having more capital than you or I, would abuse that to their benefit like they do the current copyright system. But at least the current system gives small copyright owners some semblance of protection and an avenue to contest abuse. Not having copyright would give a creator no avenue to stop someone else abusing their hard work.

Seems silly to me. Just cuz online made money doesn’t mean your hard work on story dlc wouldn’t also make money. Plenty of people like me never play online and would have happily paid for more story

It’s like when you draw a face and spend hours on it, only to mirror the image and see how stupid it looked.

How many games have microtransactions that disappear within a few years? Seems like team fortress 2 is the one place where you can buy an in-game item and still have access to it over a decade later. Not many games can say that.

It’s July. Who the fuck is supposed to replace him? These articles are fuckin pointless.

This is like Charlie with his sword talking to Mac with his gun

Listen. I don’t like Biden. I didn’t get a choice of who should run for the Democratic party in my state.

But at the end of the day, I would pick a literal pile of dog shit that’s turned white from being cooked in the sun, over Donald Trump.

The debate isn’t changing anyones mind. It sure is generating a lot of panic news though because to the news, appearing tired is just as damaging as appearing unhinged and lying nonstop.

Doubt

Still a better pick than Trump.

I don’t want your damn subscriptions.

Yeah, but now the Supreme Court said that’s perfectly ok and totally legal.

Wouldn’t this mean a president has an obligation to kill his political opponents if they’re seen as a threat to the United States, and as an official act, it would be completely legal? Effectively making one man above the law.

Even if it’s not seen as an official act, you can’t charge the president while they’re in the office, and with that power and a loyal justice department, you could eliminate anyone who might try to argue the legality of your actions.

Good luck convincing anyone to bring a case against the guy who keeps making people disappear when they investigate him.

This + project 2025 & a trump presidency is the end of US democracy. I don’t even wanna start thinking about the impacts globally…

With these bundles they always make it so the only games I actually want are always in the highest tier.

Less people randomly walking in every direction and more people just randomly sitting on broken down cardboard boxes.

Polar opposite of the rest of the industry, hell bent on keeping labor costs low with constant layoffs.

An inferior version of the game, by all accounts too. Worse graphics and performance.

Oh look, a sob story and a survival crafter. Never seen those things together.

Yeah. That napkin math looked way off to me.

The games I haven’t played yet are also the games I never paid full price for, or got in a bundle, heavily discounted.
