If only there was a website with Fast and Reliable Video Game Collections.

My teeth make me feel like aristocracy.

Charging, syncing and Bluetooth compatibility will be a bit of a challenge for most.

To keep their membership in WTO. Even if the US exerts massive influence over WTO it’s still the only general trade agreement most countries recognise.

The first one is genuinely good. It’s the later ones that require significant amounts of irony and/or drugs.

Hard drive in PS4 is user-replaceable so at least there’s that. Putting even the cheapest SATA SSD decreases load times considerably too which should help in stretching its lifespan a bit.

So you don’t see a problem with Valve’s solution not being a solution to everyone being locked in their platform. Valve monopoly is based on their gatekeeper status to the defacto industry standard game ownership ledger.

You must have loved Internet Explorer.

They paid way less money than CodeWeavers who released their work freely as well.

I’m not able to use it for games outside of Steam because Steam is a monopoly and loads of games release exclusively for it.

Dude, you’re beyond help. Steam keys are a form of locking you in Steam. People are lazy, the main reason they don’t buy outside of Steam is because they like everything in one place. Valve knows this, hence their line „just resell keys” is plain malicious and you’re just doing free PR for Gabe.

Tell me what could be the precise reason for delisting Crysis 2 from Steam? Why is developers agreement with another party any consideration at all? If Apple delisted someone because their product was cheaper on an alternative to app store would that be ok? I’m sure it would cause an outrage and they’re not even a monopoly, unlike Valve.

Wine is dead simple to use. On MacOS which I use on desktop there’s Whiskey, a free front-end although author of that one decided he doesn’t want to cut into Crossover sales because they contributed so much to it.

Let Valve pretend it’s their product in their press releases but why do Linux users do this much free marketing for them is beyond me. You’re allowing PC gaming to become locked like Android/iOS for very little in return.

Why not filter them out? Doesn’t Lemmy have this functionality? I filter out „could” and „might”.
