Haha my bad! I’m usually good at looking for usernames, but I definitely didn’t look this time. Carry on, my bad

But your entire point was based on the idea that people are switching to Linux in droves…

Exactly. If the modding community for Starfield was bigger, it could be an incredible game. I still have hope it will grow, but ES6 will definitely be different

This is such a silly take. After Starfield, I was still excited, but had very little “faith” in the next elder scrolls. After this remaster, I’m even more excited, and I think there is a good chance ES6 will be an absolutely beautiful game that I will play for years after its release.

They weren’t trying to reinvent the wheel with this remaster, they merely demonstrated its possible to have classic BGS mechanics WITH modern day graphics and animations. Starfield made it seem like they had to choose between one or the other for future games, but this shows us we can have both!

I love BGS games. For me, other than Starfield, the only issue with them is the dated graphics and gameplay, but the Oblivion remaster certainly fixes that! If anyone already loves classic oblivion, the ramaster is definitely for you, and if you loved Skyrim, but oblivion was too dated to get into it, the remaster is also for you. Not everyone likes bgs rpgs though

Oblivion Remastered is really good.

Its the redux version on steam

Wouldn’t “WoW vet” imply they have been and are currently working on WoW? Or does “vet” specifically imply no longer active?

Plenty of people do or use a lot of things that more people don’t. My point was that not everyone knows what a SteamDeck is. You rebutted by saying people on steam know what it is. Do you not see how terrible of an argument that is? You were basically conceding, but you worded it like you weren’t trying to make my point, even though you did.

Yes, people on steam know about the SteamDeck, the majority of the US and world population, do NOT know what steam is. Therefore, by your own logic, most people don’t know about the SteamDeck.

and regularly markets the SteamDeck to it’s user base.

Exactly my point. If you aren’t using steam, you probably won’t see marketing for it.

Not sure why this is getting down votes. Price is the key factor most parents look at, and most people who aren’t into technology probably don’t know what the steam deck is or know what “gaming on Linux” means. That is what is stopping a good friend of mine. Price is a huge factor, but the intimidation from lack of knowledge is just as big

But why couldn’t Steam “legally” offer offline installers the way gog does?

So, “licensed” is a legal term. Explain to me how being able to keep something forever, isn’t the same as owning?

How is having an offline installer that can’t be taken away, not the same thing as owning?

It’s literally in the title that GOG does exactly that. Why would Steam’s hands be legally tied if GOG’s aren’t?

If you like being OP, definitely.

It popped up on my secondary monitor and I wasn’t using it, so I didn’t see it all day
