You’re right, but 100% of the people I’ve encountered that were REALLY into Norse stuff specifically, rather than a general interest in history, were white supremacist.


My argument doesn’t imply that at all. My argument is that you can’t reason with the unreasonable. You absolutely should say or do something about these people in the moment, but its extremely rare for them to realize they were in the wrong.

Telling someone on a forum that the way they’re treating a creator is wrong is not at all comparable to catching someone during a rape, and implying that because I think trying to reason with an internet troll is useless means I’d just let a rape happen is disingenuous.


we all have a responsibility to hold our community accountable for this type of behavior.

Much like the “teach men not to rape” sentiment, the ones that will listen weren’t the problem in the first place. If the people that need to be called out were reasonable, they wouldn’t need to be called out, they don’t see what they’re doing as wrong. So we’re just screaming into the void.




By offering extended support? Same as they’ve done since at least windows 95?


This isn’t even the first game to do it, and you can get most of the way there with EQ.




Yeah, I don’t believe the apology for one second. Hes gonna have to prove hes changed over a looong period of time before I actually believe it.


Having not used Pop, I can’t say for certain, but its likely pretty similar depending on the version of the image you use.


Just leave your login information for the next of kin or whoever to use, no one will know any better.


Gotta be careful with that even, people go out of their way to artificially inflate their play time and use third party programs to unlock achievements.



I dropped it after the first planet, it just never really clicked. I’m hoping Avowed doesn’t give me the same reaction.


It isn’t even loyalty for me, I just have to real reason to go to the other store with 99% of my games being on steam, mostly purchased during a sale. The only exception is GoG, because they actually offer something the others don’t with their DRM-less versions of games.



The fromsoft cult doesn’t like that kind of talk, you’re supposed to ignore performance issues, dictate to people how to play the game or else “they did it wrong”, and tell people to GIT GUD.


I’m not saying Palworld is a bad game, but people like terrible things all the time. I like Mortal Kombat: Annihilation for instance.


He is, and I spent a lot of money buying and playing some of these games against my better judgement, but I can’t do it anymore. Especially not if they’re gonna charge a $70 fee just to start.



I knew this would be the case when my friend insisted I buy to play with him. Hes an unfortunate barometer for games that will either lose hype quickly or get shut down soon after release. You name a game that had a hard fall off and he was its biggest proponent during its honeymoon period. Game had its servers shut down? He played the shit out of it.


It was easy for me, and has never come back. Then again, a lot of the fear mongering I see about windows has never been my experience with it.


It wouldn’t break shit, the fan base would have a meltdown over their precious thing being more accessible though.


I’d rather have the easily moddable engine it’s on now than turn their games into cut and paste UE5 clones with no mods.


The best part is that the free mods will end up being better anyway.


It was a little more nuanced than that, but yeah. It was more like “realize the potential consequences of your actions” in regard to ad block and piracy and not “you’re a thief stealing from me specifically.”


When it’s the same people that brag about playing games that don’t hold your hand, it seems hypocritical to find an outside source to HOLD YOUR HAND, doesn’t it?





Did… people think it was anything other than “HDMI 2.1 supports it, put it on the box”?



Do they really think they can do this and no one would notice? Especially after someone gets the hammer if they break it? Its so weird.



The sony communities I saw poopooing the whole thing flipped immediately into “WE DID IT” mode, pretending they actually cared about the people that were going to lose access.


Go to any sony focused community and its rampant. “PC gamers are crybabies” for finally putting our foot down on this bullshit, and “its fine when xbox makes me sign up for minecraft?” as if there wasn’t pushback on that too.
