This. ID and anonymity are antithetical

That reminds me, I still need to make PF2E stat blocks for various sizes of mimics. Including a mimic hatchling swarm

Mere references aren’t plagiarism, idiot.

This. There are very few major games that remotely get my attention nowadays. I’ve spend most of my gaming time and money on indies

I tend to be in the “fuck corporations” camp, but this doesn’t really look like they’re stealing his work. It looks nothing like the original Charlie the Unicorn. The original Charlie was gray, while this creature is white and rainbow. This is just a reference.

As an analogy, Borderlands 2 has a sniper rifle names The Storm, and it has the red flavor text “tut tut, looks like rain”, which is a quote from Winnie the Pooh. I personally wouldn’t call that exploitation. You could try to make an argument, but it’s so minor and indirect that any argument wouldn’t hold any water

We’re talking about a company that was raking in hundreds of millions of dollars from Fortnite, and buying exclusivity deals for tens of millions of dollars, being unwilling to implement a store feature that would take any half-decent developer a single day to implement.

We bring up this argument because it perfectly highlights how little Epic cares about creating a service that can compete with Steam based on quality. They’d rather ignore the basic functions for years and instead spend orders of magnitude more money on anti-competitive practices like exclusives.

you anti Epic people

And this tells me that also aren’t willing to argue in good faith. You’re disregarding my argument simply because I hate Tim Sweeney and Epic

This

Because Epic does everything it can to be anti-competitive, because they don’t actually want to be competition they just want to be the monopoly.

GOG doesn’t operate that way, they just try to compete by offering a good service,

If epic wanted to compete “from a consumer’s point of view” they would make a better product than steam, but their store is still missing features

Reminder that it took them 2 fucking years to implement a shopping cart

PF2E’s pretty fun. The Remaster makes things a pain to look things up, but that’s more on WotC and should be largely fixed in a year when Archives of Nethys finally gets caught up

Same. All I know about my party’s AC is that one of them is tickling 20 right now, and I have no Idea which it is. Granted, I run PF2E, so even if it’s a sure hit, I still need to know if it crits

I tried it last night and couldn’t get it to find specific addresses, particularly in rural areas. Any tips you’ve found?

I checked mine, and it doesn’t include hidden games on mobile at least

If Xbox drops consoles then Sony will absolutely be pricing PS6 at $1k

Then people will start buying entry-level gaming PC’s instead, killing off PS

It was a timed EGS exclusive, so that’s a no from me

It would be the same as a guy with back pain killing an insurance CEO,

It’s not the same, because that guy was good for doing that while Tim Sweeney is a pos

You could always sail the high seas

If you refuse to buy after it hits steam, then you’re just 1 of several billion who didn’t buy the game.

No, you have it backwards. If people buy the game when it goes on Steam, that tells the developer they can double dip buy going Epic exclusive then releasing at full price on Steam a year later with no repurcussions.

The only way to make the publisher learn to not go Epic exclusive is to not buy those games at all, even after they are brought onto other marketplaces

If you think taking a 30% cut to enrich a billionaire isn’t enshitifaction then I don’t know what to tell you buddy.

Most of the 30% cut goes to developing the store, software, and even hardware. Valve has worked to make gaming on Linux way more feasible and easy, popularized handheld PC’s, made game streaming simple, etc.

Meanwhile EGS took 2 whole years to add a shopping cart to their online store and had multiple data breaches. That is what I call enshitification

Your “question” was irrelevant whattaboutism. Go read my comment again. I doubt you will though, as a quick look at your other comments have proven you to be intellectually and morally bankrupt.
