  For now, yes. But these companies change their strategies all the fucking time. As soon as they see their “only on Playstation” strategy is not giving them the expected return, I am sure they’re gonna get back to PC once more.

  Microsoft and Sony (and pretty much any other big corporation in the game business) are not reliable at all. I find it both amusing and shocking that we still have ‘fanboys’ up to this day, when these companies themselves can’t even maintain a solid long term strategy. All they care about is making maximum profit at the cost of literally everything else, so their ‘promises’ hold no weight at all.

  Never heard of Tombwater and Hun the Night before, and both look excellent! Specially Tombwater (it gave me some Dark Tower vibes, loved it). Just wishlisted both and am considering buying them.

  Considering the average time for game development nowadays, these studios barely had time under the Microsoft umbrella. It’s just ridiculous they’re getting shut down already.

  Thank you! That’s the difference between rhetorical freedom and substantive freedom.

  What gets me is how people will look at China’s poverty alleviation (800 million people lifted out of destitution, actual material liberation from hunger and desperation) and call that “authoritarianism”. Meanwhile, the US lets people die of treatable illnesses, go bankrupt from medical bills, and drown in student debt… and for some reason that’s perceived as natural.

  And on wealth inequality, you’re right. The CPC doesn’t let billionaires write policy the way the Kochs, Bezos, or Musk do.

  I disagree with the anti-west part. Anti-USA (as government or as an example for ethical governance) then, sure, but with good reasons.

  And regarding pro CCP views, it depends on the context actually. You can’t just throw everything on a bubble… The thing is that for a LONG time we have been fed my American or European media the idea that China = Evil and USA/EU = Good, but nowadays, thanks to the expansion of information and people accessibility to other sources (such as the Fediverse), people know that’s simply not true at all.

  When you see powerful countries allying to Israel genocidal acts, maintaining civilians under siege for almost 20 years, or just turning their back to it as if they can’t see the fucking obvious, you realize these governments are full of shit.
