  The bedrock UI is far more controller friendly. And it has aim snapping features and so on.

  Perhaps it wasn’t the best example, but the point I’m trying to get across is that almost any game you’ve played recently is likely profiting a bigot in some way or another.

  Shareholders will always exist. Funding sources. Executives. Just because they didn’t write the code doesn’t mean they weren’t involved with the development. And they certainly make money off the success.

  Of course always vote with your wallet. Just saying it’s a complex topic and it’s one thing to boycott it because Rowling profits off it, but you’re also excluding the hundreds of hard working game developers who put years of their life towards a legitimately good game.

  Unfortunately, because of the existence of shareholders, pretty much anything non indie is going to be profiting off exploitative rich people with generally loads of prejudice against marginalised groups. Even indie games you’re kinda stuck, look at factorio for example. Or you’re supporting the storefront. There may be ways to consume games ethically maybe but there’s always a catch somewhere. Informing consumers of these choices is important, but judging them for it is reductive considering the only winning move is not to play.

  The last AAA game you played is almost guaranteed to have been worked on by at least one racist, trans phobic, radical extremist of some kind. Just something to consider.

  I use modrinth on the deck and it’s been pretty good so far no real issues. I wish though that Java Minecraft was up to parity with bedrock regarding controller support

  I think you misunderstood me, I meant that most games will handle the bullet simulation on the server, but you no longer have to pre aim because of lag compensation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is anti-cheat always client-side?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is still the case for most games. Games have just gotten better lag compensation methods.
