The funny thing is that the best way to get them released faster is to not buy a PS5 and wait patiently for the PC release to go on sale.

It's needed to justify price hikes as components became more expensive due to inflation.

If the content cadence for PS5 is not to your tastes, I don't see it getting better in 5 years. Games the size that Sony is making don't get made quickly.

Not all. Steam has DRM that developers don't have to use. Once the game is downloaded, it may not even check with Steam again to see if you own the game, even letting you launch the game when Steam is closed or uninstalled. It's not inherent to all Steam games.

Not every game on Steam has DRM, let alone a server dependency.

That's retroactively deciding your audience. Once again, I'm highlighting that it's not our only option to endorse the practice, whereas the language of the comment I replied to implied that it is.

The launcher is great for automated features that make our lives easier. But if the launcher is all we have and the installers are gone, the reason to use GOG at all over its competitors evaporates.

That's not what own nothing and be happy refers to.

I was simultaneously saying that we don't "all" participate, as well as encouraging others to do the one thing we can to stop the practice.

If only they had a Linux version of Galaxy for cloud saves and auto updates, it would be my preferred store.

Eventually, they're going to stop supporting that, and we all kind of accept and agree to that.

The hell we do. I've stopped buying games that disappear when some server somewhere goes offline.

So, so many. You're going to have to narrow it down a bit. Vagante is a great challenging roguelike platformer that's equal parts Spelunky and Dark Souls. There are recommendations for Factorio and Civilization here, which I wholeheartedly endorse. Mercenary Kings has minimal act break cut-scenes that are pretty short, but the gameplay loop is Mega Man crossed with Monster Hunter, and it works really well. Streets of Rogue is a highly systemic roguelike that really lets you go nuts with the sandbox, and it's got a great sense of humor at that.

As a bonus, all of those games are also fantastic to play co-op.

Heh, that mechanic was the closest I ever got to enjoying a Mario Kart, and it seems like even that was ripped off of Crash Team Racing. That mechanic is still there, as far as I know, but so are blue shells and such.

Yeah, outside of Mario Kart, the market is basically simulators like Forza and Gran Turismo, or one step down like Forza Horizon, Gran Turismo Sport, and Need For Speed. There aren't any Burnouts, F-Zeroes, Star Wars: Episode One Racers, or anything like that made to appeal to folks like me anymore, and they rarely ever have local multiplayer, which is probably my most important feature in a racing game.
