The Bruce Lee. He probably talks about water a lot.

If you’d watched the video, you would know they were one of the ones getting scammed.

Everyone has 4 years to learn, including you. What/who is your viable alternative?

But this is gamingcirclejerk. This is THE outlet for this type of thing. I’ve clicked on “Don’t recommend channel” on Youtube countless times and the videos still pop up, just because I’m interested in the occasional gaming news. The bitter Youtube comments are everywhere. This is one of the few places that allows you to vent from the “anti-woke”.

You’ve played Cyberpunk 2077? Majority of players played female V. I don’t think they struggled to play as her either.

Also, whether or not all publishers are all extorting devs is up to the courts to decide. To be fair, they probably thought a class action lawsuit was better because the original lawsuit was for a publisher which was as bad as you say. All I ever said was I’m okay with the case to continue because of my thoughts that none of you hive minders really could disprove.

There are games that are self-published…

Anecdotal evidence and self-contradictory. There are devs who self publish too.

Are all publishers like that, to all devs? You and I can’t say. If all the money goes to Steam, it is a blackhole for the money. It is money that doesn’t go into the development and marketing of a game.

That doesn’t say anything. They’re not complaining, but it doesn’t mean they won’t benefit from Steam taking a smaller cut.

There are Playstation games you can play without needing to update the game. Or you can update the game, store the game on an external drive, and restore them when you want to play in the future.

Sure they do. There are solo developers out there.

Think of it like the opposite of tariffs…

Ubisoft can fuck itself. There are so many possibilities for indie devs. There are still passionate developers out there.

Too long, didn’t read. Cost savings probably won’t go to consumers, everything may go to the executives. But not all companies are beholden to shareholders. Smaller devs do offer games on discount more often. There are still passionate developers/non-managers out there that could take benefit.

Not all developers are gigantic and beholden to shareholders.

I could’ve given more. If we’re only thinking of the industry giants, of course a slight reduction in expenses don’t matter. But the smaller devs will definitely benefit.

No shit they’d price the games the same.

For indie devs, yeah.

There are people who pay full price for games, yes. I do too for games I really love, but I wait for discounts. I’ve also profited from buying MSFT and SNE shares during console releases.
