I searched around last night and found out about “offline” mode. And that’s probably what I will do come February. Thank you.


The games I bought are stand-alone pieces of software. The gatekeeper needed to run those games is another story.


Thank you for that. That support page is way more useful.

The article only links to the Steam blog. And the Steam blog doesn’t link to the support page either.


Figures.

Most software I use that dropped support for Mojave already at least let me use older builds in peace.

I appreciate your trying to help clear it up.


I read that.

The article, and Steam’s quotes, don’t say either or with any certainty, so I’ll have to wait and find out.


Hope so.

The article is very unclear. It keeps waffling between “it’ll keep working.” and “it might stop working.”

I’m just wondering if it stops working because of an unforeseen problem or because Steam says “I cannot update, so I won’t run.”

It’s not Steam’s fault, but I have to hang on to this old battleship for a few more years before I can replace it with hardware current enough to run current software.


Those of us that already have Steam games installed on Mojave will no longer be able to update? Or will Gaben reach into my computer and forbid me access to content I paid for?

Edit: All this anger for asking a relevant question. I learned my lesson.


Since Minecraft is one of the rare birds that you buy once and own forever (I paid $20 in 2011 while it was still in alpha beta, and I’ve been playing on that $20 ever since), it’s outstanding that profits are still trending upwards.

Mojang could have moved to a subscription model, but they didn’t. They could have stopped work on Minecraft years ago and charged $80 for Minecraft 2, but they didn’t. Let us count our blessings.


Maybe it was third-person at some point, but Halo was released as a first-person shooter.

My favorite part of the story is how the best version of Combat Evolved ended up being the Mac port.


Maybe because it’s a reskin of a game made in 1996?


Lucky me, I live in Stardew Valley now. And I’m never going back.


Lemmy interpreted the year with a period as a numerical list. And since the formatting for lists is apparently fixed, larger numbers keep shifting to the left until they 're pushed off the page.

It’s doing the same thing in Voyager, lol.
