€55 is the price for a new game.

Terraria.

As an Oblivion fan, this seems like a buy for me.

Well you’re paying €55 for a graphical update.

That’s extremely overpriced.

That means they are asking so much that it wouldn’t even hurt them that much.

We should really make laws that protect consumers and makes it so game services that are shut down become opensource.

Chess.

Almost all patents are BS. At least for how they currently work. Anything longer than a few years is just selfish capitalism.

Receiving a patent after another company already made a product that would infringe that patent?

That sure sounds very legal :^)

After playing tens of games on the Switch people might want to play the tens of thousands of games on Steam.

I think Valve does a lot of work on Proton to make it work this good because of SteamOS. And that’s the main reason I say this. Because a lot of Linux gaming is possible because of the work they put into it.

That is true. But without the Steam Deck, Proton support would also be lower. And that’s the main reason why I hope that they continue their current path, because I also get a lot of enjoyment out of Proton on Ubuntu.

Microsoft desperately needs this to keep people on Windows.

But Valve doesn’t actually need the Steam Deck to retain their profits as they make most of their money trough their platform.

So I hope that they don’t just let SteamOS and SteamOS devices go away like Valve’s other stuff; the Link, Controller, SteamOS1, etc.

You’ll need to load up your images directly to the fans over Wi-Fi using a companion phone app.

Lol.

Are you the person that posts that under every Valve post here on Lemmy? Because they make no sense.

Valve is a small company in terms of employees and all of them make good money already.

They grew by not going for enshitification, and all of them know it.

You can’t really compare budgeting and advertising with 50 years ago.

Regardless of inflation, it’s hard to stand out in the flood of new stuff and information being thrown at us from every direction. You didn’t have any of that back then.

Holy shit.

I hope they opensource Dungeon Keeper.

Could be a much older dev version too.

Yes it’s kind of a scandal. And it isn’t a predefined seed. It’s spliced and most likely had changed stats and drops. It was submitted as spliced, which is allowed, but then the splices should have had the same seed, items, HP, etc. Which are all inconsistent.

I think we all know they didn’t stop Palworld because they saw it grow and wanted them to get more money first.

Very iconic voice. Sad to hear.

Hey that’s what the Irish Facebook holding company was doing.

Jagex asks membership money per character.

WoW is cheaper and even gives you 60+ character slots.

Sounds like refactoring.

PMs should take notice.

Emotions not so much.

Morals on the other hand, definitely.

To add to this;

Playing modern Windows games on Linux and SteamOS is done using Wine and Proton. Wine is available on almost every Linux distro and Proton comes* with Steam.

*You can use Proton outside of Steam but it’s quite hacky and not really needed.

Yeah I don’t see any need for desktop use, except for making a Steam console under your TV.

You can use Steam with Proton on whatever distro you want.

Lootboxes, such as the CounterStrikes lootboxes, have simply been banned in Belgium.

It’s not too hard to do it legally.

Guild Wars 2 mostly for me.

I played WoW a lot until the expansion after WotLK.

I am copyrighting the T pose for player characters and will sue everybody who ever shows it.

US rep asking for their shadow state to be respected

kek

We’ll be changing Counter Strike to be Counter Terrorists against other Counter Terrorists.

Well you could have just said that, instead of raising a comparison which does not really hold up.

But yes, I don’t believe everything on the internet either.

Within psyops it’s much easier to amplify competing ideologies than it is to create new ones. Trump is the former, where information by stupid people gets amplified. This Stalker 2 campaign is the latter, where new information is created out of thin air.

Great. Push people towards communities and tools that stopped caring about not including a dumped bios.

Same thing.

They released a game that still needed 8 years of development…

Catching pokemon in Terraria?

Count me in.

“Production” in software development means it’s available to end users.

At first I didn’t understand they meant development.

What about paying for online functionality?

“them”?

Are you some sort of schizophrenic?
