Quick, sell all your Nvidia stocks!

Cheap cancer

They talk about Apple products, but that’s not something I concern myself about. I just like vibing with Grey’s beautiful mind

He’s still in the Cortex podcast :)

CGP Grey might be one of the most interesting people to ever have lived. I cannot get enough of his podcasts. I still miss Hello Internet dearly.

They can be if you are brave

It’s only fair.

Where in my comment does it state that I don’t pay indie devs?

I spend money on Steam, but I have no allusions that I’m not owning the things I get there.

I’d much rather have a title on GOG than Steam. At least there I get to keep it.

I was thinking of sites like GOG when I wrote my comment.

I have never heard of a Steam game you could run without having Steam installed

Buy second hand.

In my country first party titles go for $60 and all the way to $90

Second hand prices for these are often between $30 and $40.

And you can always sell those used games, and not really lose much (if any) money in the process.

Ps. Prices will fall even more when Switch 2 comes out next year. Hopefully it will be a repeat of the post-Wii days, where most Wii games were dirt cheap.

I purchased it purely as an all-in-one indie game player for the television, that had a nice form factor. Was easy to connect with controllers, and relatively high-end.

I don’t really like playing on it’s joysticks and buttons, but that doesn’t matter when I only really use it docked.

It’s nice with a relatively high-end console when on the go. I usually bring a controller along for this, though.

It was expensive, but performs exactly as advertised.

Have I got some good news for you then.

One cannot buy digital content with DRM, only rent it.

It’s impossible to regret acquisitions you’ve never made.

Point in case. You can sell on your physical games. Not so much the digital ones.

All that said, I too use Steam, just not mainly anymore.

Edit: Holy smokes did this blow up! I’m happy to drive engagement here on the fediverse, albeit I do believe I struck a nerve. Either that, or some people have poor reading capabilities - I see the comments refuting something I haven’t said.

Waaaay too late for that

Wth… DOS stands for Dirty Operating System : D I would have never known

Not one mention of where said moderators who left went to…

The post clearly asked for the worst names, not the very best /s

Which ones are nazi flags?

This is why we need more high speed trains. Can’t forget your luggage when you have it with you at all times

Buy used.

The disk-less “cheaper” PS5 is 100% the more expensive option.

Also, if you buy a new game you’ll have the option to sell it on, recovering some of your initial investment.
