Yeah, I’m sure that couldn’t possibly exist for ulterior motives. Bunch of fucking creeps.


No? Still no flags popping up? Bells ringing? Alright, I’m sure this is fine too. It’s keeping an eye on protecting the kids at least.





Nor public movements to do with it either. They’re certainly an interesting company…



It’s only savings if you’d at least considered paying the full price. Otherwise, it’s just a price.



They sure are. That’s why they can naff off asking for charity. I don’t recall seeing their efforts on the SKG initiative so I don’t see much reason to be charitable. My and GoG’s relationship shall remain a “money for goods” arrangement.


Exactly this. I had been hoping that Benzies going his own way would be good news but I suppose this tells us a lot about the behind the scenes of R* instead.


Not so much paranoid, more desperately looking for excuses. Sabotage couldn’t make a game turn out that poorly unless every non-saboteur was fully asleep at the wheel. It’s poor direction plain and simple.


Ah. Firmly putting that one on the “hell no” pile. Even with a pre-patched bootleg I don’t have to pay for the privilege of risking giving up full access to my computer at the very least. Thanks for the info all the same.



I wonder just how many incentives it included to update…



So who and when do those users get to sue for negligence?


I have to admit, not a route I’d expect, certainly not one to become a norm given different use cases or the steeper buy-in.


And the enshittification will continue until they have true competition.


I also generally agree with this. With my original comment, I had specific games in mind. For example, I’d love a new American McGee’s Alice that doesn’t feel so darn clunky. That kind of thing.


It’s simple; let EA die. There are some IP I’d love to see get sold off to people who will make something with them instead of IP squatting


That’s just good old imposter syndrome. The only way to get past it is to just jump in.


I dropped off quickly from the last couple because I didn’t find the things in the map to be all that engaging. Large maps tend to come with the Ubisoft formula of ‘content’ but rarely anything fun, in my experience.


The problem isn’t that I “couldn’t be bothered.”. The problem is I don’t care to believe such claims until I’ve seen the finished product. Is that better now? Or shall we keep assuming things?


What about having things to do in it? We’ve done the song and dance of “biggest ever” before and it’s rarely a positive thing.



Then keep enjoying your irrelevance. In the meantime, I want Sony games to keep getting ported so I’m going to throw in my 2 cents in the hopes that something/someone somewhere is bothering to gauge interest and hope they pay attention to the fact that any salesperson who can’t read and adjust to their market isn’t a very good salesperson.


I miss being treated like an adult and being able to view the game pages I’m easily old enough to view. Steam is slowly dying for me now.

I can still view the page for 18+ games with gratuitous violence but the moment there’s risk of seeing something everyone’s got, that’s somehow a step too far. Fucking conservative pearl-clutchers. Fuck OSA and fuck Steam for implementing such a stupid verification method.


It’s not irrelevant if their sales figures aren’t where they want them to be, it proves they’re wrong about something one way or another.


True but unless I’m missing something, they’ve only got numbers for old games because they wait so long. There’s obviously going to be much less interest in paying full price for a game that came out years ago. They’re pricing themselves out of the market due to wanting to enforce an archaic concept such as platform exclusivity.



Oh god, I hope this isn’t the end of the ports. I was looking forward to playing Ghost of Yotei in like 4 years. Maybe they should look into the gap between releases for why PC ports presumably aren’t selling well…




I find it much harder to put stock in these kinds of statements after GOG dropped the ball on their support for the Stop Killing Games initiative. Actions speak louder than words



The lack of forethought when casually allowing broad censorship.

PS: I’m really surprised by the amount of downvotes given the platform we’re on so I have to assume my meaning wasn’t as clear as I first thought.



For what it’s worth, I don’t think anyone ever considered it was a dev decision. Every comment I saw on the matter was cursing Paradox specifically.
