Ah, so you‘re one of those people that would be well at home at lemmygrad. And what fate are you talking about? Not getting sued?

Where did I say that find it good that they got sued or lost their appeal? I just said that the reason why they lost the appeal is because according to the law they’re bound to, what they did was wrong. And maybe they should’ve left that to a platform that enjoys a little more immunity from said law, because there are plenty of those. It was stupid of them. They painted an unnecessary target on their back that doesn’t help their cause and I‘d prefer them not to have to shut down at some point because I’m all for the Internet archive archiving anything and everything. They should’ve stayed a legitimate library and everything would have been fine and would have served their cause sufficiently well.
People also order on temu. Amazon is oftentimes the same but with one day delivery. And Amazon does not just sell trash, since you can still get almost anything. An iPhone from Amazon is the same as an iPhone directly from Apple or from some smaller shop. And it might be cheaper, additional to the quick delivery. Amazon can still be incredibly convenient. If I know I need something important tomorrow and there’s no local store, Amazon it is. But of course, if I just want a thing without hurry, there are usually some better/cheaper options.
Also, you sound like a nightmare customer. Do you also break stuff in small privately owned shops or do you at least stick to big corporate stores?
Which was nice of them, but that doesn’t mean they should’ve done that, especially in the eyes of the law. (Also, if you’re after free ebooks, why are you pirating them on archive.org instead of libgen?)
The commenter I responded to originally seemed confused/surprised by it, though.
I’ll definitely play Jedi Survivor (as soon as I get around to upgrading my graphics card to something that can actually play the game).
I might try outlaws once it’s on clearance or so. But as someone who hated most of what Ubisoft did in the last few years (they ruined my beloved Assassin‘s Creed and made a mockery out of Watch_Dogs), I will stay sceptical.
Here in Germany at least, if you read almost any printed novel, the type face will include this type of g. It’s so common, that I didn’t realise it’d be strange for some people.
(Although I do recall seeing a post about a kid that was confused by that weird letter, somewhere a while ago. Probably was still back on r*****)
And even EA made some decent games with the IP. I loved Jedi Fallen Order. Haven’t played Jedi survivor yet but from what I’ve gathered, it’s definitely not a total flop and even Battlefront 2-2 was decent enough.
That’s fairly standard for serif fonts like times new roman, baskerville, etc. Although it is uncommon in modern sans serif fonts and/or fonts designed to be viewed on a screen.
Well, of course they’re caricatures. That’s the whole point of GTA. But that doesn’t mean, they’re not well written. Obviously they don’t have the depth of the characters of RDR2. Which is why I prefer that game over GTA.
Well, then GTA just isn’t for you, the same as Skyrim isn’t for me. I love the story and characters in GTA and hate the lack of deep characters and stories in the Elder Scrolls series because I don’t care much for exploring worlds in a way that doesn’t feel meaningful to me (or my character). We also seem to dislike GTA Online for different reasons. Me, because it’s devoid of characters and story, you because it lacks things to do.
Everything you describe you dislike about GTA V and RDR2 is what I love. I couldn’t care less about online. I find playing in an endless sandbox a waste of my time. I love however the characters and the story, especially in RDR2. I want Rockstar to keep making great story modes and to focus on amazing fixed characters because the opposite rarely works out. Bethesda games, for example, quickly bore me and ubisofts characters in the last decade have been a joke. I love that the industry trend goes towards big singleplayer linear adventures again because for a while there was too much focus on online and too many ginormous but boringly empty open worlds. Rockstar manage to build amazing single player experiences while still having a huge multiplayer community within the same game.
Didn’t have the acquisition of Quantic Dream on the Radar. That makes them unproven in their current form. Fair point.
For Rockstar though, if you liked GTA V, you’ll probably like GTA 6. Same goes for a potential RDR3 or any other IP. Sure, they’re owned by take two but Rockstar seems to be able to produce quality games regardless. Probably because they’re bringing in shit tons of money. I don’t see that changing much any time soon. If someone told me they preordered GTA 6 already, I wouldn’t be scared about them getting scammed. Worst case the PC release will have a few buggy weeks.
Similar for naughty dog, the PC port of tlou pt1 might have had a rocky release but it’s still a good game because it’s a remake of a masterpiece. And whatever game they will release next will almost certainly be a great game as well, be it another uncharted, tlou or one of the new IPs they’re working on. If you’re a PlayStation gamer anyways. And technically the PC port of tlou pt1 wasn’t even made by them but Iron Galaxy. And the PS Account thing, while annoying to some, has no impact at all on the contents of the game.
This isn’t to excuse shitty behavior of those devs, they all have had their issues but they never (or at least not in recent memory) released a lemon of a game, unlike Ubisoft, EA, Bethesda and the likes.
Yea, but there are a few studios where I wouldn’t doubt someone’s sanity if they preordered. Naughty Dog, for example. Maybe Rockstar and Quantic Dream.
What are those in English?
Yea, it’s definitely not for everyone yet. But the average user (who needs a browser, a file manager and maybe an office suite) has no reason to stay on windows besides the convenience of being installed already.
If they can’t bring the people to Win 11, they bring Win 11 to the people instead?
Just install Linux, it’s not that hard. Or at least get a Mac or a Chromebook…
Yea, but also PIA has been independently audited multiple times and their zero logs policy seems to hold up.
It‘s the camera angle. The ratio of keyboard to trackpad is a lot more pleasing if you don’t take the pic with a wide angle lens. You can see a top down shot of the keyboard area here.
But isn’t that exactly what independent reviews are for? Be it on YouTube or in written form, there are people ahead doing what you are doing but without doing it to someone else’s property.
