Wonder if these 210gb are worth 210h of normal playtime. If the game is 20h long, all these textures and gigs are worthless.

Normies are locked in the apple ecosystem. Getting android, let alone with Graphene OS would sap their ability to use that said ecosystem.

Haven’t they said they’re going to cater to complaining user base? That’s like the opposite of that 😬

So, choosing what’s good and losing visibility would en me up as a non-visible altruist.
Nobody would buy a book from a guy on a street. They’d go to a book store that is owned by a business man who offers books in exchange for money that he pays for the rent of the book store, for the salary of the staff and for himself.
You can, of course, sell on the street. But how much do you think you would sell just in the street compared to a publisher or just a random book store that asked you to pay for them to take some bookshelf space?
Money is where people are. Nobody goes on the streets to buy books. Peoole go to a book store to have variety of choices and to find something that they are interested in. Imagine you’re interested in sci-fi and you’d have to run around the city to find a street book vendor that wrote his sci-fi novel just fo sind out his novel is crap?
You’d go to a book store 99.99%of the time.
Now change “book” to “game”. See the point?
And, if we talk about decentralized. That might as well mean “free”. If the community holds all the games, devs are paid but community is left aside?
Lemmy doesn’t earn money. Maybe only donations. If we sell games based on donations to the service, who decides which dev gets paid and how much? In other words, this would be close to “free to play, ingame purchases” than to an actual game store.
BTW, some devs already locked their games to their own stores so here is this “street book vendor” type devs (more like publishers) that sell their games only there. But their service is crap, and everyone wants to buy in steam. 🤷

At a current year’s rate it is around 66 games released A DAY. Nobody has time for that. Nor money. And FUCKING CERTAINLY no will to play asset flips and Ai slop.
If any of those 66 games would be good…

So, like on music industry. Millions of songs are released each year and yet only top artists get the listens.
Or, like movie/series industry where the top movies that got advertised gets viewed and art-house ones getting buried in the black hole of unknown.
And yet, some weird days artists and bands, directors and their weird movies sieve through and become hit sensation. Who knows why? (hint: they’re good)

Dude, cmon. At least these ads are gaming ads and not some crap Ai bullshit or milfs nearby ads. That is a game store where games are to be sold. It is a no brainer to see ads for games there…

Fuck EFI SHELL, all my homes use punch cards
My tech illiterate mom is now supporting far right parties in local area, thinks that our country needs to be friends with Russians, scrolls tiktok and tells us always to consult chatgpt.
I can understand most of it but all together this is getting rediculous. She can’t answer the question: “How do you think our country can be friends with Russia if Russia constantly blames us for trying to destroy them from inside by applying European values?” too much propaganda on tiktok ig…
Sidenote: she’s tech illiterate because she doesn’t read prompts her phone gives her in her own mother language, clicks some random buttons and always asks me why things do not work. All that instead of just pausing for a sec when prompt appears and read it through to understand what buttons do.
