  I would argue that’s a holdover from the Europeans and while they became more enlightened and peaceful the Americans took no lessons

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Michigan Republicans vote to strip child labor protections⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The experiment was going ok for a while

  So well in fact other countries adopted a lot from you, yet you never saw improvements on your systems to be emulated at all

  Weird suicide of a nation that never needed to happen

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Union Workers To Protest Mass Layoffs Next Week⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  GTA5 broke records before online was even out but online became popular also

  A company focusing on the most popular part of their business is essentially what they have to do, it wasn’t just that whales spent money it just became far more popular than any single player dlc would be

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Union Workers To Protest Mass Layoffs Next Week⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I am sure GTA will buck the trend

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*inhales* 🖕🙂‍↕️🖕⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you transfer me Bitcoin I will send back triple

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*decline*⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My boss likes to remind me I am showing as online on slack, I turn it back on 5min and then back off

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Drawn Out] Rockstar & Sony Think You're Stupid⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The main thing is that even if you shift to a more exclusive business model and charge more people will just borrow to get your new thing because it is more expensive

  Nobody will be talking about any of this in a year anyway and it will be accepted as what is normal

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let it sink in.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I work with binary every day or a notation of it, don’t worry

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let it sink in.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait… what

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PlayStation’s Physical Media-Free Future Isn’t Just Concerning, It’s Offensive⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If everyone keeps bragging about piracy devs will gravitate to consoles where it’s harder

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Take that Aussies, USA #1!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There was criminal colonies all over the British empire

  A lot of rich Brits also colonised Australia after the basic infrastructure was there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox testing disc-to-digital feature to digitize game collections⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering digital games are the same price as physical currently they could do it as a free service

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well offer PlayStation money for the studio and see if they say yes

  No point telling us until you are in a position to do something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of an era?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well it is, but the writing is also on the wall, computer hardware increases will have more of an impact than consoles which are subsidised

  I don’t think it out of the question that to play the newest game on PC your only option will be to stream it from PlayStation or xbox as that will work on cheaper hardware that more people have

  At that point the piracy backup goes out the window

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of an era?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You understand that all this talk of piracy will just ensure that developers only target consoles in the future like they used to right?

  It may be relatively strong sales in PC right now but I am sure they will collectively cut that off and you will be left with indie releases on GOG

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of an era?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This has all been the case on PC for a long time and there isn’t much complaining over there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of an era?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I already buy everything digitally so don’t mind that much personally, would be nice if they committed to long term backwards compatibility though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't let your mind be a jar⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t have that either

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GTA 6 will cost £70 - and physical edition will not contain a disc⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gaymers?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't let your mind be a jar⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I got aphantasia, so I’ll stick with tv and films thanks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Would you rather it be sold as a piece of cardboard with a scratch off reveal code?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GTA 6 will cost £70 - and physical edition will not contain a disc⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The ultimate edition seems to be digital only, the box with a code is the same price as standard

  It’s just for retailers who wish to sell it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t a series S as low as 256gb?

  That tells me the game needs to be under that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will officially begin on June 25⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What if it comes with a bonus like GTA4 remastered for pre ordering?
