Well, it requires one because the producer said so, not because the game can't function otherwise. That's what makes it half-correct.

Having the "server" locally hosted on your device would fix it, but they just let it die without allowing those who purchased the game to be capable of playing it. That's the big push behind this movement, not online only multiplayer games. Everyone knows those die eventually.

You misunderstand me. It wasn't out of consideration for you; it's just a vote. I just want to remind myself that the person I want to be doesn't make snap judgements on half of a hot take. There hasn't been enough substance to affect me. You don't have to answer my original question, but I am still curious.

It‘s not about games that never need an internet connection

That is half correct. The big point is for games that are singleplayer that you pay up front for that require a internet connection for no good reason.

VideogameRoss is a youtube guy who really pioneered this whole movement. He has a series devoted to really old niche games that is really interesting (Ross' Game Dungeon). I'd highly reccomend looking into his standard content and the don't kill games afterward.

Edit: Also his voiceover halflife series is likely the best protagonist commentary series ever.

I'm actually going to remove my downvote and reserve judgement until a response.

What games do you play, and what games do you think this movement is targeting?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Lol. I saw it at 0 downvotes. Tbh this makes it better.

Beware the torch for it bears a curse.

Those who pick it up cannot relinquish it, merely pass it to another. The flame shall be tended and always a bearer must toil.

Let not the bearer convince you to take the entire burden, for like Atlas, they will not willingly take it back.

Oh, look. A personal attack without contributing more to the discussion. The exact thing you complained about happening to you. Wooooooow

Empathy =/= White-Knight anger. You're only demonstrating the latter, not that you necessarily lack the former.

Yeah, it's been pretty clear who has directly and intentionally caused more instability and human rights violations. Geneva just wants to keep hating on 'Bama. They may feel stuck in the past, idk.

Everyone deserves to be represented. Honest disagreements and discourse leads to good things. May you avoid bad actors in your interactions. 🙏

Yeah, noone can say if you're racist or not just from this. You do have some sort of hate-boner for Obama though. I don't know what he did to personally hurt you, but I hope you eventually heal from it.

I don't think America has had a morally good president in a very long time. Since sometime before Regan. I enjoyed the sense of stability that Obama brought to the people and nation. I view him as doing a decent job overall and if we want to point fingers, the Senate is who really failed the American people that cycle; Mitch McConnell in particular.

Those seem like some major contradictions of the concept of liberty. Ty for the book reccomendation.
