This claim is dubious. Several publishers have already announced Switch 2 games.

And even if it were the best game of its genre, how can you compare it to other best games of all times like GTA SA or Mario Galaxy 2? They are totally different.

Pokémon is not a first party game, it’s developed by Game Freaks. And the Switch isn’t underpowered for this kind of games, there are lots of better looking games on it, such as Breath of the Wild, which is a launch title. Game Freaks is a terrible studio who can’t make a game run smoothly even with GameCube graphics.

The landfill.

Yes! BG3 and KC2 devs made amazing games but for some reason decided to have them take place in the most generic, boring medieval/fantasy setting.

I want a pirate RPG, or sci-fi, heck even a hardcore Mario CRPG.

Skate 4 is coming out any day now!

THPS was never realistic, it’s basically Mario 64 on wheels.

Probably in-engine footage but not actual gameplay.

That is what it is. THPS1+2 is a remake of THPS 1&2 from 25 years ago. They are teasing a THPS 3+4.

Right, but most PS5 games are PS4 games.

Conclusion: GOG > Steam/Epic

How much do they pay you?

2.1 We give you and other GOG users the personal right (known legally as a ‘license’) to use GOG services and to download, access and/or stream (depending on the content) and use GOG content. This license is for your personal use. We can stop or suspend this license in some situations, which are explained later on.

But… but… Epic funded the game, this means they physically cannot put it on Steam! Nevermind the dozens of games on Steam published by owners of competing platforms, such as UbiSoft, Activision, Sony, CDPR, EA…

They’re no longer available for sale.

TBH it worked with Final Fantasy XIV.

Sony them promptly blew off their other foot with the $299 thing.

Technically possible to do legally if you plug a USB floppy drive and install the DOS version of Mario is Missing.

Valve could do a funni by releasing Alyx 2, then Ep 1 and Ep 2 and nothing else.

The Wii arguably has better first party games than the GC. Mario Kart Wii, Mario Galaxy, DKC Returns, New Soup, Wario Ware…

Why anyone ever watched their garbage videos is beyond me.

“procedural deckbuilding survival indie roguelike”

Same as GOG: piracy.

Yes they can. They cannot stop you from installing the game, but once they revoke your license, it would be piracy.

GOG shills always twist reality to try to make it conform to the “you own you games” lie, but the truth is GOG is no different than Steam.

I don’t. However, using those files after GOG revokes your license would be piracy.

I hope you’re paid well to spread this easily disproven lie.

What do you mean, almost? EA is literally a member of Video Games Europe, the organization which manages PEGI.

You can emulate Mario Galaxy.

It’s Mario Galaxy at home on PS5.

A free content update is coming early 2025.

Legislation to allow installing arbitrary OS and firmware on all consumer devices.

Base Android is also loaded with crap, directly from Google. Android is the worst mobile operating system, with the exception of all the others.

Playnite integrates all launchers into one with a controller friendly UI but it’s only available on Windows.

I do, and then they get nationalized, as all natural monopolies should.

But have you considered all those points that are addressed in the full text of the initiative that I did not read?

Free update.

This guy’s strawman arguments have already been destroyed by plenty of people who actually know what they’re talking about and don’t have an interest in keeping the current situation.

Dolphin doesn’t emulate the Wii U and never will. The devs have explained several times that the Wii U is too different.

The Ryujinx dev is Brazilian IIRC.

It has system access yet doesn’t prevent cheating.

The subscription is only required to buy it, and only until mid January. It’s possible to use Alarmo without an active NSO subscription.

Maybe more people would be willing to use Steam competitors if they weren’t all absolute garbage.
