  Nah, that’s a dumb take. Denuvo does protect from casual piracy, that’s why companies use it, if only temporarily.

  It also negatively affects legit consumers, and that is the problem - these publishers have decided that potential profit matters more than actual, realized customers.

  I haven’t bought a Denuvo-protected game in about a decade, and that isn’t going to change.

  He’s a liberal capitalist stooge. All of his decent-to-good policies are social, and virtually every financial or corporate decision is dogshit.

  Did they not already have this? There are literally hundreds of these, are they really all third-party? JFC, Nintendo…

  Isn’t that… like… almost the entirety of the purpose of the genre?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Messaging Service ICQ To Shut Down Next Month After Nearly 30 Years⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Serious question: did anyone here actually know it was still around? I’m one of the more tech-savvy people I know and haven’t touched ICQ in well over a decade at this point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve has little to worry about as new Steam Deck rival arrives⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly just shows how dialed in the steam deck is

  I don’t understand how so many competitors are just making rhe most obvious, braindead mistakes. Who the fuck thought using Windows was a good idea?!?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam will stop issuing refunds if you play two hours of a game before launch day⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ehhh, I’m actually (surprisingly) gonna disagree here. Obviously there are special cases, where the game worked in EA and had some game-breaking crash on release, but those are the exception and not the norm.

  If you played a game in EA, you know more-or-less what you were getting on release. You know the developer’s communication style and their release cadence, and you’ve literally played the game. I would like to see this time limit extended back to maybe 30m/1hr, but I don’t see a problem with reducing it if you’ve already experienced parts of the game.

  Fallout is hyper realistic

  Ah, yes, stim-pacs have saved my life numerous times, and I also experience time dilation at my own whim!

  Is there any way to stream TDS? There’s no way in hell I’m getting cable for 1 show

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Admit it, you have long dreamed of such hosting.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well then it makes sense that it wasn’t supported
