What a weird argument. People preserve all the digital games on consoles, too. The only somewhat fair argument would be that it's slightly easier to preserve games on PC, but really both have their own challenges. On PC you're fighting DRM, on consoles you're fighting the OS security to break in.

The only real excuse for digital only is DRM free, where you can backup your installers.

In my defense, I put "recent" in quotes.

Did you mean to reply to another comment? It's like, completely unrelated to what I said, I was praising a game, not bitching. Nor did I say anything to indicate that I'm terminally online or a gamer.

No, I don't think I do. The goal of their message is to point out that the modern AAA game industry makes similar, boring and repetitive games. RDR2 isn't that, it's a genuine piece of art. Why pick the one good apple from a pile of bad apples, when complaining about the aforementioned pile of mostly bad apples.

I love FTL, but weird choice for an unfun AAA game, as RDR2 is actually one of the best AAA games in "recent" history.

If we are being technical, that word uses katakana, not Kanji.

It's rail time!

Mostly home computer. But I don't see how that's relevant.

Why not? As a kid I already knew the ins and outs of the OS better than my parents and could fix practically any tech issue.

Didn't stop Mr. Incredible from getting sued...

That's the most HD, AI-upscaled version of this meme I've ever seen.
