It's not an RPG but how about Lollipop Chainsaw?

It has hordes of enemies you can slaughter (which provides a certain kind of relaxation, to be fair) as a pretty girl who possibly looks like you maybe, and you can see boobs.

I never actually played the game (although I'm interested in playing it) but it was the first thing that popped into my mind.

What’s Steam got to do with Borderlands 2 having a rootkit?

Blackmist,

You’re right that it’s not Valve they’re mad at, buuuuut…

They could regulate that no games they sell can have rootkits and delist the ones that do, as well as offer refunds if a rootkit is patched in in the future. They have lots of rules already, and I don’t think that would be a bad one.

So should Walmart stop selling products that I deem unfit based on my personal preferences too? Say goodbye to animal fats, products made in the US, ultra processed foods, some fruit I just don’t like the taste of, all Nestlé products…

I think you get the point.

Blackmist,

If somebody put strychnine in the guacamole, I’d expect Walmart to remove it from the shelves and offer refunds to anyone that bought it.

If somebody distributed malware through Steam, I’d expect them to stop it also.

Not that there is currently malware in Borderlands 2, but their EULA says they could put it there if they wanted, and there’s nothing you could do about it.

As usual, money is the best message. So if they do put it into a game you’ve paid for, request a refund. If Valve starts losing money, they will change their rules.

Diurnambule,

Steam refunded me multiple time for game where EULA changed and I disagreed with it. I told them that the EULA changed to include spyware capabilities and I don’t agree with the EULA change.

BlameTheAntifa,

I didnt realize Steam would do that. There have been several times where EULAs changed or malware was added a year or more later and I just assumed I had no recourse.

Diurnambule,

Dépend on the backslash they get. I have to admit it didn’t work each time. Last time I did it was for a psn account requirement added after they sold it

gamermanh,

I actually tried this with BL2 last week and got told “no, you’ve owned it for almost 10 years”

I find it hard to disagree with that notion, but also have a pirated copy with my saves backed up ready to fucking go

Diurnambule,

Yeah it didn’t work each time.I don’t remember the specific game, I think they got a huge backslash with some game and I kept asking for refund and telling them I disagree with EULA update which made my game unusable. I am in Europe through, that may have played a rôle

A_Union_of_Kobolds,

That’s a nice thought, and they should do that, but you’ve gotta do better at picking and choosing your moments

Blackmist,

I’m not the guy that guy replied to.

Just a random guy who thinks Gabe can put his foot down with these publishers. They already all tried going without Steam and they came crawling back.

But_my_mom_says_im_cool,

If this was on PSN or the Nintendo shop, everyone downvoting me would be up in arms blaming Sony and Nintendo

OutlierBlue,

But it’s not. So don’t make up scenarios and then claim persecution when people downvote you.

kadup,
@kadup@lemmy.world avatar

Making up scenarios and claiming to know what the response would be sure is a way to make an argument.

I mean, the worse most laughable way, but it’s a way indeed.

RevolverSly,

Objection! Speculative

Agrivar,

Your mom is wrong. You are not even slightly cool.

But_my_mom_says_im_cool,

This thread makes me wish we could have a discussion community where we exclude Americans. Even the left are nuts over there now. Nothing but name calling and shit slinging. Glad your country is drowning

Diurnambule,

Hahaha, you killed me. XD You have problem with the default country ?

Agrivar,

I believe so! I’m like 90% sure I’ve seen the version number listed as 4.0. Along with a bunch of workshop mods saying it’s 4.0 compatible

Prosperous universe might fit the bill depending on how deep into economy sim you want to go. Beware that you have some limitations as a completely free player, that are removed (last I checked) after you’ve made at least one purchase. So think of playing “free” as an infinite demo.

Allemaniac,

this game seems very promising, I’ll check it out later today. And I don’t mind spending a coin or two to help the developers. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just played again for a long while today, but only Zombies with my bud. I will say I unironically love shipment because I just don’t feel like winning is a skill thing and that takes the pressure off. I just throw out my traps and go around full ape-shit with a shotgun. Totally recognize that’s not what actually good pvp’ers would want, but it works for my casual ass ¯_(ツ)_/¯

PalmTreeIsBestTree,

Every government and corporation has some data on us no matter how we like it. I was referring to my Xbox 360 copy which is totally offline.

I’m playing Oblivion Remaster. I never played it before, so I don’t have any nostalgia for it. But, its the first Bethesda game I’ve tried that has actually grabbed me. It’s just super charming and immersive to me. All I have left for my current character is the main quest and the Shivering Isles. I didn’t do all the guilds or explore everything - I’m saving some stuff to do on my next character that I’m already planning.

Saw your first screenshot in the post and immediately thought Eve online.

I haven’t thought about that game in a few years.

I know that’s not what you’re playing but now I’m thinking about Eve again.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve heard of Eve before but know nothing about it. Is it similar to this? I might pick it up

RedditAdminsSuckIt,

They are completely different experiences. Eve online has a steep learning curve and is a player driven open world sandbox.

I haven’t played stelaris but after a google comparison between Eve and stelaris, I want to try it.

Eve online offers free to play now. They offer alpha accounts with the option to upgrade to omega whenever you want. I’m thinking about getting back with just an alpha account for frigate pvp.

They’re so buried in the system settings and the Maker is so… bland. I mean. I get it. They wanted to distance themselves from the Wii U as much as possible but it does feel like a lot of identity was lost because of that
