This is literally just an ad 💀

Except Microsoft is building up a monopoly on gaming, buying what they can, consolidating its properties so they can then transition to a streaming-only model where nobody owns anything (I know you don't technically "own" the games you buy either but at least you can have them on physical media to keep, back up or sell) and the only way to play anything is to pay a monthly subscription fee and to use only what Microsoft allows you to use (i.e. no more Linux gaming)

I have news about them too: they're not actually coming anytime soon, it's all techbro propaganda

Ok have fun on bitchute with the Nazis then

I'm not interested in their games either, my issue with it is that a lot of people are, and MS is trying their hardest to get a monopoly in the industry and/or turn everything into streaming-only subscription crap

more compatible

That's because at this point Google basically has a monopoly on the web. They're pushing what they want, because they control most of the browser marketshare through not only Chrome but every other browser based on it. That's also the main reason to not use Chromium-based browsers, because it's helping Google strengthen their monopoly.

However, I am broke

Your dad sounds cool

TOS is unwatchable to me so Ethan Peck has become the Spock for me lol

:3

Counter-point: everyone should block AI shit, fuck the laws

So instead of labeling Western propaganda as well, the solution is obviously to not label any propaganda whatsoever so people can be lied to by both sides?

I thought you were pancakes

Steam games are obtainable in other ways. Streaming-exclusive ones aren't.

That's not what I meant and you're literally wrong lol, incredible games are made every year. My problem with this is that Microsoft is trying to turn gaming into its corporate cloud-only monopoly.

Our base is under attack

Unit lost

Low power

Unit lost

I don't exclusively mean piracy. You can still buy big budget games on disc, and you can buy most games from any other platform, including GOG and Itch which don't implement DRM. I only care about physical media in the sense that nobody can take it away from you, and DRM-free media achieves the same goal.

Not to mention that piracy isn't theft because you're not taking anything away from anyone, you're making a copy of some files 🤷‍♀️

The notion that piracy is theft is capitalist bullshit designed to manipulate people's emotions by equating a company not making as much profits as they theoretically could have to theft lol

RIP video games

I'm glad you at least seem to enjoy the taste of boot 🤷‍♀️
