  They’re driving on the right side.

  If I had that answer I would be happy to share.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do Americans win their country back?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is too late for a while now. Try to be safe, even if that means moving.

  It’s a bubble.

  A friend of mine who bought it clearly states that that’s never going to get anywhere. But he’s only paid a regular amount and accepted the risk and loss.

  It is a difference if you get stuff prepackaged in a uniform format.

  But full agreement on the rest, yes with steam tendency to include drm (especially if new aaa) and gog hopefully not (but sometimes failing) as it still is their selling point.

  Okay let’s chalk this up to some language barrier or cultural misunderstanding then. 😁

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Now Warns Consumers That They're Buying a License, Not a Game During a Purchase⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Err… You often don’t have the files drm free on Steam.

  Anyhow. Seeing the down votes I’d love for some to elaborate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Now Warns Consumers That They're Buying a License, Not a Game During a Purchase⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While that may be partly true, depending on the county you’re located, they’re not able to revoke the license though.

  So in this specific case you having the files makes a world of difference.

  Just to give you a little something:

  My glasses cost around 500€ to 700€ per glass (so so around 1200€ plus frame) and I have to pay them myself.

  Cocky.

  Okay

  I might, thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Legends of Adventure: The Story of Sierra On-Line⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t read that one.

  Ken’s book is mainly focused on the business side of things. While that does sound boring how I stated it it is very good imo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Legends of Adventure: The Story of Sierra On-Line⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Color me surprised. I’ve read ken’s book which is recommendable. So what’s new here?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wolcen: Lords Of Mayhem won't receive new updates and its multiplayer will switch off in September⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well can’t say much positive about this.

  Was broken and incomplete at so many levels from the beginning.

  We still had some fun with it though, to be fair. But mostly it’s been a mess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meat.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes indeed. Upon seeing this thread I thought I need to add the information you added, but going from dick to thick does absolutely not improve the situation.

  Aside all other legitimate concerns mine is mostly that they’ll use the MS store on PC…
