I mean, there are if you’re „arian“, not disabled or otherwise made a target and don’t get snitched on by your neighbors.

In that case you can live like a „free“ person while people around you „disappear“ which would not freak you out at all. (/s)

You are not actually free though because if you openly criticize anything, you disappear as well.

I suppose the common theme is „murderous authoritarianism“.

It is a education problem imo. Keeping masses in check is very easy if they lack critical thinking and have a tv in every room.

Nice! Now I need to find a way to get around the perma aggro bug of cesars legion and I‘m good to start a new run. :)

I recently bought an nvidia gpu and I won’t do it again. Forget nvidia and linux. They work together at this moment but very much meh. Proprietary driver and lots of little issues with games. Maybe those also surface with amd but I doubt it.

But this makes the subscriber count kind of pointless imo. It’s kind of important to see how many people really subscribe.

I think the discussion has become a bit muddy.

The argument against live service games is that you are dependent on the servers hosted by the developer/publisher (afaik).

In normal circumstances, they are able to stop you from playing or alter the terms at any time however they like.

This is a dominant/subordinate relationship which is quite risky. Especially for young people who are still learning what a healthy relationship looks like.

The alternative is a equality relationship where you decide if you buy something based on the price.

One argument against that would be that you can „rent“ an apartment as well. But legislature has shown that states will intervene on a vendor (landlord) redefining the terms of the contract. Not so much with gaming.

Now you are arguing that the game is taken off live service and you will be able to play it offline. I don’t know if that is the case but if so then buying it now would actually send the message that doing the right thing after all boosts sales.

TL;DR: Live service games are badly legislated imo but truly making such a game offline playable with all dlc would be a good thing in my book.

Just my personal opinion. Have a good one.

Thanks for answering but I have no idea how that works. Additionally, I got it working now. It is running at 60+ frames after I chose steam linux runtime in the compatibility options.

I don’t think this fits here. Nobody on the internet is ever wrong! /s

Thanks for the advice! :)

I highly appreciate the effort you took making this post. I believe it will help a great deal making it easier for this community to thrive. Thank you very much! :)

Upvote for correcting yourself without taking the knife out. You got dignity.

The proverbial ice cram sticker on the windowless truck.

Good question. I have not seen those yet. Will keep an eye out. Thanks for mentioning it.
