Tbh, they cancelled the prince of Persia remake. I don’t think we know what the other games were. I know it’s a popular franchise but I hate remakes, they always end up being a cash grab. Open world is kind of their bread and butter but it’s been mostly shit, so if they focus on the quality aspect, it might turn it around.
I don’t really dig live service but r6 siege was one so maybe we can get another gem or two like it.
The markets probably didn’t like all the cancelled games in the pipeline but a reset is probably for the best. Their main franchises have gotten steadily worst. I used to look forward to their games, now I don’t even buy them on special.
This wasn’t like the GTA online mods. You couldn’t host your own server and had to pay for access to theirs. They never said rockstar forced them to take it down either from what I have seen, it might be they just decided they weren’t making enough money.
I have a backlog of games to get to so I’ll let other have the chance, just wanted to give you a thumbs up! Awesome idea! I’m sending all my spare goodluck I have your way.
You joke but they threatened to call the cops on me after the sixth call or so.
More education is always a good thing. Diplomas are probably a requirement for high end luxury shops that pay better. I had a friend who worked in a Ferrari dealership as a mechanic, he made good money.
You can look up average starting salaries online coming out with different diplomas and compare them. Trade schools will have the info usually somewhere on their website. Might give you a better idea.
Another quick tidbit but it’s a good time to ask yourself if you want to work on cars badly enough that you are willing to drive a shit car to do it. There are much much better salaries in aviation for essentially the same type of jobs. It’s better to be working on planes for a living so you can afford to work on cars as a hobby.
It feels sweeter if I know I’m stealing from Disney tho

The fitgirl unpacker and installer? Tbh I never tried, everyone on the web simply said it didn’t work.
Proton can handle the game files but not the installer. So you have to install in wine and it’s a hassle. I install the games on my windows pc, zip them and then transfer them to my deck.
If you think Amazon’s cut should be lower, you’re free to make your own marketplace and compete.
The market is already captured.
The conversation is longer then two comments. It’s highly debatable if valve has a monopoly per the FTC definition, not being sued by them isn’t the bar. You don’t need to have 100% market share. You can have legal monopolies, but that wouldn’t make the gross hoarding of wealth (which is the underlining thread) defendable.
There is no doubt in my mind that they have, in common talk, a soft monopoly at minimum and are colluding and keeping the percentage taken high. If they were actually competing, he wouldn’t be able to afford all the boats.
There is a difference in the problematic being caused, not the ethics. The soft monopoly they all enjoy together as a group (Valve, Microsoft, etc) is having an effect on the industry. We as consumers get worst quality games in the end, because 30% of profits go directly to a few hosting companies. A lot of indie companies would still be around if the game store club wasn’t insanely greedy and artificially keeping such a huge part of the pie.
If it wasn’t the same, Gaben wouldn’t own a handful of boats worth a combined 1 000 000 000 $. That is 9 zeros for boats.
Valve has lawsuits in the work, although not from the FTC. The fact is Valve is just slightly above the other companies, but it’s a very low bar and that doesn’t negate their very real effect on the industry.
I bring up Amazon because your arguments apply to them. If I told you Bezos deserves all his wealth because he has a better platform then his competitors (all three of them) and offers an easy to use website with cheap delivery, you would probably call me a bootlicker.
All billionaires and their profit making machines are bad, no exceptions imo.
Amazon doesn’t either. Most of the arguments defending Steam can easily apply to every other “bad” company.
The only thing that differentiates steam is their marketing budget targeting small forums and Reddit.
You could defend Amazon with that logic. the fact that the barrier of entry is high is exactly what let’s Steam, Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo abuse of their soft monopoly.
Nothing justifies owning a billion dollars worth of of boats.
If the bubble pops though, it means the market is going to get flooded.
