Well at least you didn’t give your money to gamepass.
Nothing wrong with buying too much art, just don’t piss all your money away to corporations charging artists rent instead of giving the money to the artists.
The Voxelibre mod is probably what you want to start with if you want to have a Minecraft+ like survival experience.
EditYou can download Luanti from F-droid too… as in the Android store!!! The touch screen controlsk work great on a phone and I am pretty sure you can use a gamepad if you want too. Luanti/Voxelibre multiplayer servers thus are actually kind of awesome social hangout chatroom-esque spaces that are very chill and low pressure. Also… most of them that say they are family friendly are serious in their moderation around it (though of course, if you are a parent don’t count on it being 100% perfect at screening out annoying people).
I don’t, my favorite games have a way of leaping out of my memory or my life and latching onto my face to remind me I love them. I guess I forget the others.
I have nothing against the idea of people using gaming streaming services. I think it is awesome actually, I just can’t join into the positivity yet until we solve this existential underlying problem.
That is perfectly ok, you don’t have to tackle the world by yourself, thank you for providing me the public opportunity to show why you are so critically incorrect in your approach to things you love so the rest of us can evolve together :)
Just because we are leaving you in the dust doesn’t mean we won’t care for you, but my oh my you are taking out a big future debt on your soul by going through your life with an attitude like this.
It’s not the deep “bro”. Maybe Microsoft does have some underlying motive to reshape the gaming industry but I’m not going to think about it that hard.
I know you don’t want to, that was obvious from our initial interaction which is precisely why I am taking the time to try to get you to think about it harder or at least point out to others the folly in your shallowness.
What part of the progression to the end stage of Spotify do you think we are at?
Maybe the stage where they give you a bunch of stuff in an unsustainable firehose because it is meant to destabilize the industry and decisively put Microsoft between gamers and video game developers so they can charge both more rent once there aren’t any popular alternatives left?
I know that someone like you with your attitude will just say “whatever bro, it is what it is” and frankly I don’t want to live that way because nobody can live that way forever.
To be clear, Gamepass itself is a totally fine concept, but if you choose to remain ignorant of the context Gamepass is being used in that is your problem and honestly people are going to remember you didn’t care, especially video game developers.
but you don’t want to play a *Microsoft-undermined game,
Tech corporations (especially US ones) that big don’t back anything, they enclose markets, buy the innovative companies and undermine the industry until they can force a meager profit out of the industry even though they are selling crap.
Exhibit A: Gamepass
I will not be a part of the Spotify-cation of the video games industry, for that is one of the things that killed my love for producing music.
