Which contradicts no part of what I said. Critical thinking. It works.

Do players celebrate layoffs? Or do they just enjoy the schadenfreude when karma bites executives and managers who disrespect their customers?

Either way, yeah $70 for a game, especially for a bad one, buys me the right to complain.

So people will either simply stop talking about Square Enix at all or make sure they use a VPN/Tor and burner email to do it. SE do know who their customers are, no?

At this point, he’d be better advised to spin up an OpenSimulator instance, hire Firestorm to build a custom viewer, and focus on building his world. Reinventing the wheel — again — is pointless.

Nintendo’s own-goals are getting embarrassing.

Yes, but he’ll gaslight the rest of us into calling it “bee-GOH” Games.

The upcoming Dragon Age: The Veilguard will somewhat surprisingly not use Denuvo at all

Apparently, it isn’t about FOSS. It’s about trademark infringement.

God of War Ragnarok PC port suffers earns review bombing on Steam due to PlayStation Network account requirement

Fixed it for them

Whether he said it or not, social engineering is perhaps as inappropriate in games as in schools. I agree with the sentiment that I play games to get away from reality, not to get slapped with extra-strength RL issues.

It’ll definitely lead to a few never-imagined-by-humans campaigns.

Now I want to plug in the rules to ChatGPT and let it run a session, just for fun.

Someone wants to remind them that Ehmke lost. There’s such a backlash against her brand of approved discrimination that DEI is being dismantled, made illegal, and generally thrown in the dustbin. She’s probably not the best person to advise on equality issues.
