@GreenTextRepost Imagine pulling your friend's plug over some light hacking, smh

@ShitpostRock2 The 2nd one is probably most similarly coded as the player-character, so it'll be a better fight

@Minorikyun Well, "be nice to them", but being liked would be nice too

@RinoTheBouncer The correct choice is Playstation, just because it has the largest library of games of the four... but I hate having to choose.

@NJWebCrawler @ShirakoTheFirst @xaviersonline_ Yet, as has been said elsewhere, it technically still meets SKG's guidelines... though I hate how Steam delisting works, because I bought a game that got delisted once and uninstalled it, but couldn't reinstall and play it after the fact. So still not great.
English

@ShirakoTheFirst @xaviersonline_ The game is being delisted, meaning that there will be no possible way to even get the game in the first place besides physical copies and piracy

Lego sacrificing their public image so the Stop Killing Games lawsuit can win in a landslide

LEGO 2K Drive will delist on May 19th, 2026 NOTE: All multiplayer servers for LEGO® 2K Drive will be shutdown as of 05/31/2027. After that time, all game functions requiring online servers will no longer function. store.steampowered.com/app/1451810/LE…

@xaviersonline_ Just saying, this game already has an offline mode so it already falls within SKG's guidelines.

@Sakev78 @VideoArtGame The way there were different scenes that would show when it timed out blew me away, we basically never saw that in games since the N64 Zeldas.

@SuperSisi What's weird is that I played it for the first time on the 3DS as a teen, thought it was kind of mid at the time, but then it's still somehow managed to be in my top 10 as an adult. It's just very unique in what it gets right.

@SandyofCthulhu (and console-exclusive stuff too, can't forget about that)
English

@SandyofCthulhu A huge reason why I push back against DRM/Online-exclusive stuff. Even if it's doing well in the moment, all it takes is one bad turn for the consumers to lose out.

Gabe Newell owns the majority share in Steam. Now, I know Newell somewhat. We've met. We've talked. He's not a close friend by any means. But it is by his will and genius that Steam is the way it is - a triumph of good guy capitalism. A great site for finding games, with cheap prices, frequent sales. Well ... I don't need to praise it here. You guys all know about it.
When Newell passes away, it's unclear what will happen with Steam. Doubtless his shares will go to his family. Will they continue his vision? Or will they sell out to one of the many circling sharks who have been trying to buy it for years? What will happen if the sharks DO get their teeth into Steam?
I believe that in that case Steam will go to hell in a handbasket. Owned by men in suits who don't give a sh*t about quality or the consumer. Probably it will become a subscription service or worse. If it gets sold to a horror show like Electronic Arts or Disney it'll be a nightmare.
The only mitigating feature is that a different service might arise, but it will need to fight the rotting lumbering corpse of Steam to establish itself. I am content that since I am several years older than Gabe, it is plausible that I won't live to see this terrible day. But you might.
Gabe Newell, to me, is literally barring the gates to Hell for us all.

@blacknredtext I wouldn't want the previous one to not exist, but I would definitely like to see most games without this filter. Deus Ex: Human Revolution comes to mind.
English

@Tohabath @RinoTheBouncer Ahhh, thank you for clairfying! Kinda get the same impression, less about the genre and more detail-specific. Flavour then, bit like Touhou vs Girls Panzer? Might be the same game, but just different tidbits?
The genre itself seems treated as a medium,
like books vs tv. 🙏
English

@Getlucky12341 Sort of! It's like putting a nickel-sized dent in Captain America's shield, it was anticipated to not be possible to get ANYWHERE in the U.S., so even a grain of progress is impressive, even if it's meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
