The worst of Lemmy is a certain instance… That I have never heard from after defederation.

Yeah, defederating from Beehaw was definitely a great decision. I’m so glad I don’t have to see those guys’ posts anymore.

Netflix competitors (Disney, Comcast, Paramount,…) lose over $5 bilion, and now some of them are thinking about merging into one huge corporation.

I really want to play single-player versions, or at least on my own private server, games like Travian or Ikariam. Basically resource management strategies but without the insane need to be 24/7 online in anticipation of an enemy attack.

Edit: Also a single player tab targetting open world rpg.

The official announcement teaser for The Elder Scrolls VI came out in June of 2018. That means Bethesda will have most likely started advertising the game a full decade before it came out, if the game is at least five years away at this point.

I’d love to see a seedless watermelon. It’d be less of a hassle to eat them.

Took them only three years.

I was mostly referring to the last part of the article where the author explains the entire long-term plan behind the subscription services - first they offer a large variety of games for a low price, then they squeeze the customers for every single penny after they’ve cornered the market.

We’ll all pay for a subscription-based future

Not me - the moment when buying a game outright is no longer an option is the moment when I stop paying for video games. I already have a large library on Steam (1,700+), GoG (400+), and I’m not planning on buying any Playstation or Xbox products. I’ve never paid for Xbox game pass, or PS plus, nor do I plan to. They can scheme all day long, hike the prices every week, I already buy games only if they’re on a really deep discount or in a bundle. Never paid more than 30 bucks for a game, and I could count on one of my hands how many I paid more than 20 bucks for.

I do, of course, realize that I’m in the minority, but hopefully more people will realize how big of a scam these subscription services are.

Crazy frog and its sequel were genuinely good racing games for the time. I enjoyed them a lot. Split screen was awesome.
