Every time I read this fake ecological motivation I aks myself why people think we can save the planet without some plastic and paper jn a little box of human art, instead of considering real problems like big industry procedures and food packaging. Priorities.
- Comment on GOG seemingly shares that they are considering physical PC 'big box' games. Maybe? 6 days ago:
It would be fucking awesome. I can totally see others doing this in the future but GOG is the perfect player for selling drm-free physical stuff at the moment. People who think “full digital is the inevitabile future everything” are just sad analysts watching their own garden, we already know PS5 selling datas were manipulated from Sony, people need physical like any other art medium.

I can see third party companies for this since Valve is probably the last one who wants you to not buy digital.

The problem with LRG and similar is the limited factor, we don’t need another scalper paradise but more prints and aviability.
- Comment on Time to bring back physical media on PC? 1 week ago:
People still by cds and vinyls, I don’t think is fair to compare today with the apex of physical media, an adjustment in numbers is inevitable.
- Comment on Time to bring back physical media on PC? 1 week ago:
Yes I think we can exclude the old-days mass distribution but I think a more niche physical pc market could potentially be profitable in the future
- Comment on Time to bring back physical media on PC? 1 week ago:
I think drm-free indie oriented publishers like Annapurna could make a lot of money with physical copies.

- Comment on The Nintendo 64 is now 30 years old! Released in Japan on June 23, 1996. 2 weeks ago:
Shaders are good when used properly, usually not in 16:9 1080p LCDs; old hardware is relatively cheap and emulation not very faithful. On controller side looks like there’s an 8bitdo controller but I’m not informed, I just need a way to control X-axis.

PS5 retail should be priority, when only digital Steam is a superior service also for linux support.

I have a ps3, great console, I still have to find a reason to mod it since blurays are very cheap. PSP looks interesting! I’m prioritizing to mod a PS2 these days.
