- Comment on Is the price for the Switch 2 (Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition) expensive in where you live? 1 day ago:
partly due to the cost of gaming
PC and Piracy. You will only have a few costs (Debrid services or VPN and well, perhaps an HDD/SSD).
partly due to life
Hope everything is okay.
- Comment on Is the price for the Switch 2 (Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition) expensive in where you live? 1 day ago:
I’m fine with the price of 519,99€. It is still cheaper than the base PS5 (which is now about 715€ compared to its release of 499-550€). I was expecting the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 to be more expensive than it is. I’m willing to cave in and purchase it, if I ever manage to get my hands on one.

Seems like a good game but the expensive price plus the fact it will be 30FPS on launch is a no-go for me. Will wait for PC release (if that ever comes?). Got enough backlog games anyway.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons Officially Have A Pay-To-Press Button 3 weeks ago:
Just don’t give Nintendo money and ignore their current games
Why should we? We can enjoy the games and ignore Nintendo’s console. Why should we? We can enjoy the games and ignore Nintendo’s console. Why should we stop enjoying something that we like?
It’s a major hipocrisy to damn them and then go that route (for current still being sold games, I am not talking about retro or even Nintendo online!).
And why is is hypocrisy for still wanting to play these games, enjoying them and emulating them? Most what you read is people complaining (or as you call it ‘‘damn them’’) about the prices point, Nintendo’s behavior and their policies. The exclusive games are pretty great and that shows with the fan-base and the amount of people emulating them. If the prices were decent, they had normal behavior and policies. More people would’ve bought the console and less likely to emulate.
But Nintendo decided to be one of the greedy and ‘evil’ ones. I mean, they went after Palworld, emulation makers and random people for ‘naming their supermarket Super Mario’: Nintendo Loses ‘Super Mario’ Trademark Fight With Grocery Store. They could’ve just collaborated with the supermarket and enjoy the double marketing but no.
Your comment just sounds that you do not like people who emulate because ‘‘these people complain about something valid, refuse to pay money but still enjoying gaming’’.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons Officially Have A Pay-To-Press Button 3 weeks ago:
Now, you may be wondering what the button does if you don’t have a subscription? Unfortunately, it also tried to bury the fact that this Game Chat feature will actually require a Nintendo Switch Online subscription once the free trial period ends on March 31, 2026.
Was not this already known after the release of Switch 2? I can vaguely remember people complaining that you needed an subscription to use the particular feature and if they did not, the button was just… an useless button.
This is why I emulate games and just use Linux
I too emulate Switch 1 games but unfortunately, Switch 2 games cannot be emulated yet.
- Comment on PSBLACKOUT (boycott of PlayStation) 1 month ago:
Don’t think casual gamers will care about this. Most will probably just boot up their games on PlayStation after a long day of work or university.
- Comment on China bans AI “boyfriends” and “girlfriends” over addiction and birth rate concerns 1 month ago:
I’m a bit confused as to why this is related to 1984. I understand banning AI “boyfriends” and “girlfriends” could be seen as a form of censorship, though. But I also think it’s kind of a good thing; some people genuinely believed these AI were their real relationships and might avoid any real relationships.
- Comment on The End of Ownership. Sony’s announcement has fans worried they might never truly own their beloved games. 1 month ago:
So in other words, just go the piracy route.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Based on the instance you’re on, you should know this statement is completely untrue…
Ignoring everything else I have written and then try to use a magnifying glass on this particular sentence. You seem like a troll trying to bait me, so this will be my last reply to you.
For the majority of people who use PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo, it is true. Most users do not really bother trying to hack their consoles. But you already know that. I will ignore you from now on though.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Yeah, stick to the companies that really care about the consumer like Intel, Gigabyte, and NVIDIA! 🤡
I understand your point but I rather build my own PC, pirate and pay for indie games than buy from Sony, Xbox, or Nintendo. In this life, we got to choose which of the corporations gets our money. At least with a PC, I can choose with which parts I want to build it, how good I want it to be, and how much I want to pay for it or wait it out.
If you know the instance I’m on, you probably know how I get my games, software, and eBooks. I myself can decide whether I want to actually pay for it or not at all. PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo users can’t do that. They are forced to pay hefty prices for their games and then still get locked out of their games (movies, TV shows, etc.) when the company decides to pull everything.
Trying to act all ‘‘clownish’’ just makes you look like a really bad debater, though.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
I hope people will just stop playing on PlayStation (or any console for that matter) and go over to PC with Steam (and 🏴☠️).
Consoles, the game prices and the practices of these corporations ain’t worth the money, time and effort.
- Comment on "Piracy is not a pricing issue. It’s a service issue": Sony just proved why digital storefronts are broken 2 months ago:
Honestly, I hope more and more people will just go into Piracy. People deserve to actually own what the purchase and if they do not own it after purchase, there’s no reason to spent money on it. Unless it is explicitly written in the policy that it is a rent.
- Comment on Sony Signals It’s Not Prepared To Sell PlayStation 6 ‘At Significant Losses’ 2 months ago:
Don’t worry Sony, was not planning to purchase one anyway. I regret purchasing the 5, it is collecting dust. PC Gaming while sailing the high seas all the way.

- Comment on Why do doctors not seem to give a fuck about pain? Is this just an American doctor thing, or is it universal? 2 months ago:
Don’t know man but the doctors here be like “just take a paracetamol”.
- Comment on What do you do if you lose an argument, but it turns out that you were actually right? 2 months ago:
Absolutely nothing. If it turns out that I’m right, that’s great to know. Let them think they are right and somewhere along the way, they’ll figure out they were wrong in either a okay-way or in some disaster-way.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 2 months ago:
I have not but, I’m uncertain whether it is because… I might have blocked certain people already, blocked an instance, not being active enough or all of it.
- Comment on Stellar Blade: BLOOD RAIN | Official Reveal Trailer 2 months ago:
It looks good but I truly hope they stepped up the story and environment. I played the first game and quit within 1,5 hour.
Was tired of the forced sexualization, boring enemies and didn’t like the combat much.
- Comment on Is there a way to view the comments on a deleted Lemmy post? 3 months ago:
I’ve been wondering about this too! It is sometimes kind of unfortunate and annoying that you can’t view the comments normally.
- Comment on Lastest Riot Vanguard Update Can Brick Your Hardware (If You're a Cheater) 3 months ago:
On one side, I love how it breaks cheaters hardware, should not have cheated… eh?
On the other side, worried that it might and will break non-cheaters hardware sooner or later.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 immediately beats its predecessor's all-time Steam record with 130,000 concurrent players – and that's only counting people willing to pay $120 for early access 3 months ago:
I appreciate the link!
People like death to Gazans. They’re so eager to support it.
This comment however, does not make sense at all. I’m immensely Pro-Palestine but I still have to use Microsoft software for things like work. Same thing with NVIDIA and other products.
- Comment on What actually is the 10-point proposal from Iran which Trump said is "workable basis on which to negotiate"? 5 months ago:
Do not believe everything the dude says and writes. He’s a delusional, fascistic person that admitted wanting to commit genocide on the Iranian people.
It is insane that America has this guy as President.
- Comment on Never doubt the commitment of horse-girl fans: Umamusume cosplayers are having actual races at tracks around the world 5 months ago:
Honestly, this sounds fun. Displaying, enjoy talks about the anime, being sportive and just having a fun time.
Prefer this than all the current conflicts in the world.
- Comment on Confirmed: PS5 console prices are being raised by $100 | VGC 5 months ago:
Question; is it nowadays cheaper to just get a good gaming PC for long-term? (Including when someone does piracy related stuff).
Nowadays, I can’t recommend any console except the Steam Deck (OLED). I do always say “just get a good Gaming PC and for handheld the Steam Deck”.

Looks cool but only going to play it when, it is 🏴☠️. I refuse to pay so much and then to be forced to get th DLCs for even more money. If it won’t be 🏴☠️ then I simply will not play the game.
