Yeah, but it’s always been a license. I’ve never been unaware of that, it’s only now that publishers are starting to abuse that fact that they’re making it obvious. Again, I’ve never been burned by valve, so I trust them. Maybe that’ll change some day, but for now, that’s why they’re doing better.

And here I just read another post here about how gaming journalists are surprised their industry is dying

It’s because valve has always been transparent about it. They’ve also put in place a lot of protections for gamers, which is why I trust their store. Their stuff is also a license, but I have yet to see something pulled out of my inventory. Actually there was a game once, and it was a Ubisoft game now that I think of it. I believe that’s when they put in more protections.

Ubisoft wants to make everything cloud dependent and then want us to be happy that we can’t play our games anymore. They lost all of my trust. If it’s not a purchase, then it’s a rental in my eyes, and I’d never pay more than $20 for a rental.

Sounds like it may be time for some creative licensing

I think that’s my point, that they’ve built such a easy to use trustworthy store that everyone just buys it because what’s the point of stealing anything from them. Vs Nintendo when that’s the first thing people start working on.

Then they’re all shocked Pikachu that people are so determined to emulate them. You know what games aren’t being jailbroken en masse right now? Steam games. Because the store has been trustworthy since day one. They may break that trust but it hasn’t happened yet.

No. I don’t care if it’s microscopic and you can’t feel it. Go wash your hands.

The amount of dudes who don’t wash their hands is fucking disgusting. Even if you don’t think your crotch is dirty (it is), you just touched the urinal handle, you have splash back, doors, your hands are dirty now. Go wash them.

Perfect! I’m a Linux guy, happy to fiddle and learn things!

I actually think Syndicate is one of my favorites, behind only black flag… I absolutely loved it. To me Unity was the boring one
