Unreal_One posted:They got real stolen during the real money auction house era, and some people just didn't deal with it ever. That's the only reason I can think of. Hell not even then. The day StarCraft 2 came out I got a bunch of emails in a row about my blizzard password changing and lost an account that had base WoW with a level 15 undead warrior on it. I think the plan was I would have StarCraft 2 or a WoW account worth money. Joke was on them

Hollow Knight was good until I finished the game and googled if there were other endings. Turns out there are but nothing in the game tells you about them and they're gated behind bosses that are unnecessarily hard and a meat boy area.

I'm bad at business, but Uber and Amazon feel different to me. They dropped things at a lower price, exploited workers, and then raised prices once the competition was successfully out of the area. Epic gave out some free games, kept things at the same price point as if they were launching on steam, probably exploited workers because  I don't really see a difference between buying something on Epic and buying something on Steam. Epic has less anime porn games though so there's that? Edit: that said I haven't actually paid for anything on Epic because I don't really game on PC that much anymore

Skwirl posted:Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo all have console exclusive games, even beyond the ones made by their internal studios, at least when Epic gets an exclusive game I don't have to buy a $300 system to play it. But it splits the username irreparably! I mean sure you already have a computer, and your friend list exists, you can start a steam voice chat and play something different, discord exists and most of my social group has moved to that, but it splits the userbase because you have to *checks notes* install another program

One is this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53s13hXBX8w&t=103s and this other is a twitter thread showing the launcher looking at Steam info https://twitter.com/_s_t_r_e_l_o_k/status/1106341025109299200 only the account has been suspended so I can't actually check anything there

Coolguye posted:the youtube link is commentary on their privacy policy, which is public and easily auditable by anyone. if you really require specific excerpts, here you go: I asked because I genuinely wanted more details. But I didn't think by "check my question mark" you meant that I needed to go from there, to a different thread, to a resetra forum thread. I was kind of hoping to skip forums and get actual news articles about it as forums tend to be full of people who misread and/or misunderstand something and then parrot it forever. Like a game of telephone that leads to the fear a company is selling my information to the Chinese government

flatluigi posted:I think there's absolutely a worthwhile separation between deals/freebies on games and whatever freeware stuff is out there and it should be pretty clear why it's good to have both to anyone who isn't being a willfully pedantic rear end in a top hat about it Games on a subscription service you have to pay for sounds like a third thread. If this is for games that are marked down to free from costing money them a subscription service is not that.

World of Horror is on Gamepass and it's a neat little early access cosmic/eastern horror mashup. The art is styled off Junji Ito. Itbfeels pretty complete but I'm hoping as it needs full release you get more interaction between things

Cross posted to correct threadSparq posted:Warzone 2100. Early 3D strategy game, released on the PC and Playstation. It has aged surprisingly well. A game where you battle for map dominance while you design and build an army of drone tanks and aircraft, being able to customize them between different chassis, propulsions, and weapons. It went open source and has been perfected and expanded by a team of modders called The Project. The campaign is good, and lets you build a homebase on one map while sending away teams to specific missions on other maps.
