Witcher 2 had an Assassin’s Creed Easter Egg as well.

What’s extra funny to me is that most classic boxed games require you to have an internet connection so you can download the fixes to get them to run on modern computers.

False advertising/consumer protection laws can be quite expensive if someone reports them. Canada is one of the sticklers about it, and while you may not be based out of a country nor have offices there, you are still subject to their laws when it comes to online sales. Not totally sure how effective collection would…

This is the most correct take I’ve seen. Unless the online connection is required to unlock functionality that exists locally it’s not DRM.  I’m guessing all the stuff that makes all of those “locked-out” features work lives on the server. But it really shouldn’t have been on GOG regardless. GOG’s whole shtick is…

I’ve also installed many of my GOG games on retro PCs. I sure can’t do that with a storefront that requires a DRM client to run the games.

They bill themselves as providing only DRM free games (which is true.. except for this game). It doesn’t belong on their store. I buy from GoG whenver possible because it is DRM free, because I can actually OWN the game, not borrow it or have it taken away at a whim by the store like steam or epic or origin (you can…

Disclaimers and disclosures are easy to miss.  Especially on a website that is built on selling their games free of the very thing they’re disclosing.

I am finding this so hard to care about right now. 

They’re all cringe. This still feels unnecessary. The puns and cringe are part of what makes WoW what it is. 

Blood Elf Female: Normally, I only ride on epic mounts... But, let’s talk.

I mean I’d have removed them a good decade ago just because of how embarrassing they let alone as some poor attempt to deflect from their creepy bosses.

When you split a server’s country’s population into three two factions and set them loose to compete over an the island nation, hostility spreads like weeds.

Maybe it didn’t make you a Grand Admiral.

Please be courteous while you simulate a literal war for territorial dominance.

A remaster of a 3DS game is available on cloud only.  Okay Squeenix, you’re drunk, go home.

They are, New World runs on Gamelift. This comment is a bit technical, but maybe interesting if you’re curious about how this stuff works. I used to work for an MMO middleware company in the early 2010s, so server scaling was a big part of my job. I’m not in that job any more but I still keep up with changes and I…

The world is going to have to learn to live with COVID. It isn’t going away, ever.

No one has adequately explained Kotick’s continued employment. A man who has extensively profited off exploitation and harassment?

The world and the rules of the 0.01% are not your rules and not your world, is why.

The more powerful and wealthy a company becomes, the less honest they need to be towards the consumers in their pursuit of greed.
