greedy devs

Publishers, mostly.

No no no, they wanted to abolish oBaMaCaRe. Totally different thing. Obama is an evil commie, you know?

That’s the neat thing, they won’t. It’s pretty easy to apply a high tax on moving away. In fact the USA of all places do just that.

Also, what do rich people possess? Assets. Physical assets. A big part of that is real estate, owned privately or by companies they own. There’s no taking that with you. They can sell their assets and try to take the money with them, but that means the society they leave gets it’s assets back.

Huh, curious, I could swear we Germans (and most other countries I’m sure) used to do just that until a glorious neoliberal government came along and abolished the tax.

Oh, Daeran must be one of my all time favorite RPG characters, even though I hated him initially. Regill and Ember are great too.

Owlcat can pull this off, at least from the storytelling side. The shooter gameplay is something I haven’t seen from them, so let’s hope that’ll work out.

I’m hyped.

If you want to blow the whistle on somebody and wonder if the Guardian is trustworthy I suggest you ask Julian Assange.

Garbage out is what he aims for.

Indian Creek has referred to this request as “extortion.”

Strange. I could swear it was called a “free market”.

You first.

What if it was an unusually charismatic zombie with a tragic backstory?

Ok. How would you say does it prep?

What definitely did happen to me is I booted into windows, shut down, on the next startup there was no grub menu, just instant boot into windows. (Separate physical drives).

Remember, just one. In my prep time I’ll build pit traps.

One zombie. I could win against one zombie. With prep time. I think.

Ok, but which? Can you sue them if Galaxy, a free tool that they provide for convenience and that isn’t required for the actual service, doesn’t work, or if it breaks a game? Name one thing.

I have lots of free games from GOG. You don’t have to be a paying customer to use Galaxy.

Which rights do you have?

Galaxy is free and not required. If it doesn’t work you can download games from the website (which I consider an important feature). I’m pretty sure you don’t have any rights whatsoever.

Buuut it also reinforces my point. The free open source solution works better than their in-house one.

I genuinely don’t get the “don’t pre order just buy the day it releases” thing.

Nobody ever said the second part.

Don’t pre order, wait for reviews a couple weeks after release, buy if reviews are good and no major bullshit is discovered.

What do you think you’re winning?

Avoiding the major bullshit.

Also, even if you did just buy day one: If developers have a lot of pre orders they know they’ll sell anyway they have less of an incentive to deliver the highest possible quality day one. That’s why people are telling you to not pre order. I could not care less if a stranger struggles with day one bugs, but they are helping to lower the bar for everyone else.

So does Galaxy?

Let’s say I have not yet had to do a full reinstall of Heroic and multiple associated games because something got unfixably (for my level of understanding) borked during an update.
