@robertsgulans @scarlettscarlia It's about individual safety vs safety of people that might be considered "stupid" or otherwise having made a poor decision. Not a perfect parallel but it's like being asked to risk your life for someone who's about to commit suicide, you know suicidal people would press blue.

@whateveriguesst @scarlettscarlia It boils down to: does each individual wants to live. And answer that question. Those who want to live, live, those who are not sure… it depends how many indecisive people there are.

@scarlettscarlia Red button: i want to live Blue button: i want others to decide. What collective good it is to press blue? Why just not clearly say: i want to live. And everyone who wants to live do the same?

@daiconlovesyou @NikTek Hard to say without seeing it first-hand but it does seem like a fair price, original SC retailed for 50$ 11 years ago, and having one myself i can say they did cheapen out on some parts to get to that price, if this controller feels as good as the competition it should be worth.

@NikTek It's only a fair deal if you aren't willing to step back from consuming for awhile and accept companies saying $100 controllers as the new norm. Consumers need a sanity check on hardware prices, but Valve is definitely not stepping on any toes with a $100 controller

> DualSense Edge costs $199 and comes with potentiometer-based analog sticks that are prone to stick drift (an analog module alone costs $19 when its time to replace them) > Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 is on sale and currently costs $157. It comes with the same type of analog sticks The Steam Controller comes with haptic dual trackpads and drift-resistant TMR magnetic joysticks, yet some people seem to call Steam crazy for pricing it at $99. I never expected this controller to cost anywhere near in the range of $60 to $70. Although $100 isn’t cheap, what you’re getting here is a controller that is going to last much longer than any of these other ones.

@Wshw7wS2L4y7Hci I've gotten two replies and still don't get it, why are doujins the only thing that can stand in this legal grey area?

It confuses me how japanese people can so strongly believe in doujin culture while simultaneously demonizing fan projects that try to preserve a work because it "goes against the wishes of the company"
Brodie Robertson@BrodieOnLinux

There's such a different response to this from Japanese fans and everyone else, most people are happy about a dead game being brought back by the community. But I've seen a bunch of Japanese fans angry about this because it goes against the wishes of Square Enix.

@umesansansan @zkurishi Pretend arcades basically don't exist outside of japan, they do but they are so niche you would never stumble into one without actively looking for it.

「Stop Killing Games」は、オンラインゲームがサービス終了した際にもユーザーを守るために広がっている消費者運動ですが、カルフォルニア州での法案提出が世界中から注目されています。 法案は、サービス停止時のオフラインでプレイ可能な代替版・パッチの提供もしくは全額返金の義務付けをはじめ以下の内容を含んでおり、成立した場合にはおインラインゲームの在り方を大きく変えることになります。 ・2027年1月1日以降に販売されるデジタルゲームを対象。 ・サーバー終了（end of life）前に60日前に通知義務。 ・終了予定日の2ヶ月前からの新規販売禁止など。 現状、オンラインゲームのサービス終了に際して、消費者側の権利が弱い、ゲームそのものがプレー不能になるのは文化保護の観点からも問題、などは日本で指摘されることも少なくありません。日本においてもこうした運動を進める余地があるのかという点も含め注視、応援していきます。

The Stop Killing Games movement has officially backed the proposed California bill focused on protecting players when online games are shut down. > Publishers must provide an offline mode or a way to keep the game playable after server shutdown. > If this is not possible, players should receive a full refund. > The goal is to protect digital ownership and game preservation. This proposal follows growing concerns over games becoming completely inaccessible once support ends, especially after shutdowns like The Crew. Most gamers think that if players pay for a game, it should remain playable or be fairly compensated.

@Pugnus_Simia @MizutamariVT Collectivism means prioritizing the needs and goals of the group as a whole over the needs and desires of oneself. I don't know why you assume from one example that fits this criteria that i somehow think that's all there is to it...

Japanese copyright views confuse me cause on one hand, they have a thriving and extremely popular doujinshi culture which openly violates copyright in the same way all fanart does and this is seen as acceptable simply because the companies don't pursue them. But ensuring a game they payed for can still be played after EOS is seen as some extreme flagrant disregard for copyright law even though by japanese law, it's still likely completely legal in most cases to do it. Japan's stricter view of copyright seems to stop completely with specifically playing games and watching anime, nothing else.

@Pugnus_Simia @MizutamariVT You can interpret the two behaviours we see here the opposite way just as easily though, going out of your way to make a mod for a game and release it to the public for free sounds pretty collectivistic, whereas what i see from the japan side is gatekeeping for bragging rights.

@MizutamariVT the answer is simply that they are a collectivist culture, unlike us who are individualistic consider how we will leave a shitty job at the drop of a hat for our self-interest, while they will apologize and bend over backwards for their employer until working themselves to death

@whateveriguesst @plebiansdotnet @JamrockHobo Because the Hardie Boys being the big dumb morons they are decided to take credit for it over & over & over again, to the point they literally dug their own graves, because they were too dumb to realise that the Mercs weren't playing around at that why not point let Dawinism win?

Jamrock Hobo@JamrockHobo·
If anything, Disco Elysium makes fun of communists the most. If you opt into it, it tells you to get the gulags and death squads ready. The communist quest is centered around two geeks who talk about revolution and slaughtering capitalists but don't go outside. The union boss is a fat, corrupt mobster who has no qualms about flooding his own streets with drugs. And at the end of the game, you meet the Deserter, who is a bitter old soviet who couldn't get over the city's failed attempt at communism. His old regime was decidedly defeated in battle, but not before attempting to put nuclear power into "the people's" hands, causing a mini-Chernobyl.

@JamrockHobo The laziness of the game is that I can't side with the Wild Pines Group mercenaries, but I can side with the communists striking in the dockyard.

@garbud15 @TidyWire The example is relevant though, Konami suddenly decided that sanctioned retro formats must be played with cards in their current forms, cards that were erratad in the future must be played the way they work now when they worked differently in the past. killing any interest.

@TidyWire Picking a card that's banned in competitive play is a choice. Like they did change it, they got rid of the card entirely in competitive

@LDfc75 @ChuggleVGC @ChunchunmaruDes Honestly a relevant difference like this would be a dealbreaker for most competitive games, especially in this case where it's different from how it works in mainline games and the title is marketed towards the competitive side of the playerbase.

@ChuggleVGC @ChunchunmaruDes So you all are mad that a “tech” that the devs obviously decided is not something they want in competitive play, removed it? Thats not a feature thats a bug they decided needed fixing.
