kibiz0r, do games w Does anyone else find it suspicious that there wasn't any criticism on here about Stop Killing Games until after it hit 1.4M signatures?

I made some critical posts about it several months ago. It was exhausting. So I stopped. Haven’t changed my position though.

RageAgainstTheRich, do games w Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy.

They want to that bad? Why not remove those payment options for those games? There are a load of other payment options besides VISA and Mastercard…

XTL,

That’s not the threat. Payment processor says they have to form their entire store according to their whims or lose all credit card using customers.

SheeEttin, do games w What's a video game that can run on any sort of device?(besides doom and pong)

Any sort of device? Well, to run a game, at a minimum there must be some kind of input and output, but not necessarily any storage. I think the one that could run on the most would be one that requires only one button for input, and one LED for output, that just tests your reflexes. It would have to read out your time by counting out flashes. You could also have a Simon-like game, with pattern memorization.

barnaclebutt, do gaming w You wouldn't self-host a game server

Fun fact, they pirated the font. What a bunch of assholes. Stop killing games.

Jax, do games w FromSoftware reportedly has another unannounced game that ‘could release next year’

I would believe a Bloodborne remaster was coming before Bloodborne 2.

Please. Please I have been waiting for years to play it on PC.

MasterNerd,

You could emulate it if your PC’s powerful enough

Jax,

I admit it’s been a while since I checked in on the progress towards emulation, is it actually playable now?

cyberpunk007,

Didn’t bother on my much more powerful PC, but it’s playable on the steam deck… Just a bit rough last time I tried.

If only someone could garner that much support for StopKillingGazans amirite

MisterFrog,
@MisterFrog@lemmy.world avatar

There’s arguably much more support for that, than stopkillinggames.

But the political opposition to stopkillinggames is far less.

Allero,

Easy to gather, but will likely be ignored, sadly.

mrductape,

The whole Gaza situation is a wasp’s nest that nobody should poke without knowing damn sure what they are doing. There are multiple big players playing chess with other people’s life there, and you could lose a lot.

But given the complexity the chance that the situation is resolved and thus something is won is very small.

Yes, it’s terrible what is happening. But unless you have a lot of resources and a big army you are not in a position to muscle all the parties involved into submission, which is what will be required at this point.

Come on, Steam, it’s time to create your own payment method! There are plenty of people who want their wincest!

slazer2au,

The problem becomes how do you get your money from your account into steams.

Making a payment platform isn’t as easy as it sounds. There are significant rules regarding payment processing which is why there are so few of them.

Walk_blesseD,

It does have its own payment method: steam gift cards

XTL,

It’s not so much the having or adding a method but losing one that a lot of your (potential) customers use.

Tattorack, do gaming w Is that a mod on the device that you own?

If only the “tax the rich” petition had such a great villain to reinvigorate interest, but I take what I can get.

AwesomeLowlander, (edited )

Elon, Trump, and the rest of the fucking pantheon weren’t enough to invigorate interest, I don’t who is.

Edit: how the duck is this a controversial statement

mnemonicmonkeys,

This is an EU petition, not the US.

Doomers coming out in force today

What does the US have to do with anything I said?

RogueBanana,

There are no billionaires in EU, didn’t you know that?

zerofk,

There were, but we ate them.

If only.

mnemonicmonkeys,

Nothing, but that doesn’t stop people with Americabrain from making terrible comments here.

The EU has a record of actually passing pro-consumer legislation such as the GDPR and forcing companies to use standardized cables. Claiming that nothing is going to happen because of lobbying doesn’t hold up nearly as well as it does in the US

Tattorack,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Many countries in the EU already tax the rich. I mean, it could be better. It could be a lot better, and we still have right-wing types that try to destroy that positive element within the EU.

But of all the countries that would benefit the most from heavily taxing the rich, it would be the US. And since the US has made itself the centre of all the world’s attention, and the whole world still uses the USD as the primary exchange currency, anything that would shake up the economy of the US would shake up the economy of the world.

Lazhward,

My thoughts exactly, I find it very disheartening.

magic_lobster_party, (edited ) do games w Stop Killing Games reaches its goal of 1.4M signatures, covering the risk of valid signatures going under 1M

But how many of these have worked at Blizzard?

Korhaka,

Why would that matter? EU is generally not as shit as the US on consumer protection

It’s a jab at the Pirate Software guy, I believe.

@Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I’d like to think people would focus on other things now that SKG picked up the pace but he’ll most likely be brought up for a long time regardless on what happens with the campaign in the future - even if just as a punching bag for people to feel superior about.

TheEighthDoctor,

Dude I could code at Blizzard in a smart fridge

This isn’t about you, America.

JoShmoe,

I genuinely can’t think of any way to address your level of immaturity. Here’s your reality check. I didn’t vote for the guy, I don’t like him. You’ve been checked kid.

TheTrueColonel,

And StopKillingGames has nothing directly to do with America. It’s a European/UK petition. At least understand what the topic is about before bringing up unrelated things.

I’ve recently gotten back into (indie) game dev and made my multiplayer game with Stop Killing Games in mind. When you connect to the game, if the server is down, you get a one-click solution to run the server locally and play single player instead.

This setup actually helped speed up development too, since now I don’t need to run both the server and client when making (most) changes :)

Baggie,

You’re doing gods work my dude

For every such indie dev who can do this like it's nothing, I bet Ubisoft will find 1000 reasons why they can't...
