If you wanna sell people on this idea, then phrasing it in a way that suggests it would make Europe more like America is pretty much the worst way to go about it.
That’s not lucky at all
2·1 month agoI only have 200 on Steam and have 100%ed 24 of them with an average completion rate of 62%.
I have 102 games on GOG
4·1 month agoThere is a kernel of a truly great movie hidden inside Batman & Robin. Unfortunately it’s buried under a mountain of shit. The result? Pure corn.
7·1 month agoThey’re both great. One is a sequel to the other. Get BotW.
I find it plausible that Orbán and the average Orbán voter sees the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a godsent opportunity for Hungarian revanchism on parts of Ukrainian territory.
Europa Universalis IV 90% off. Alan Wake 90% off. Prince of Persia series 80% off. Devil May Cry 1-4 67% off. Various Hitman games 90% off - the original is going for 79 cents. I could go on but I dunno what you’d be into. They have more recent games too, like Baldur’s Gate 3 20% off.
Anyway, mostly they’re the same discounts as on Steam at the moment so I dunno if it counts as “of note”. I just mention it because if you buy with GOG you get the game DRM-free, plus some people prefer to spend their money with the EU (as opposed to the USA) these days for obvious reasons.
Note: GOG is also having a sale
0·1 month agoEvery time somebody tries to bring up the “America is just as bad as Russia” argument, I like to look at and compare South Korea vs North Korea and West Germany vs East Germany. We basically have proof that America isn’t trying to conquer the world. It practices catch and release.
America’s done lots of horrible things but Russia seems to ONLY do horrible things. America helped Japan rebuild and then gave it its freedom again. Russia still refuses to let go of Southern Chishima. America is not as bad as Russia.
Having said all that, I would prefer if NEITHER of them were global hegemon.
If we ever actually pass that bill. The OTB or some version of it has been on the table for most of a decade, and the cabinet keeps rejecting it. I see no reason why they’d grow a spine now.
Well, duh.
Every land is stolen. The problem is that they’re in the middle of committing genocide.

“Wide assortment” would be my guess.
If you go through your day and meet one asshole, they were an asshole. If you go through your day and keep meeting assholes…
…maybe instead of expecting the world to get more i tune with your sense of humor, the person who needs to make the adjustment is you. The Internet is made of strangers who can’t hear your tone of voice or see your tongue-in-cheek expression. Poe’s Law basically defines the Internet.
They’re not competing for the same slice of the pie, though. Microsoft isn’t trying to take Nintendo’s customers because Nintendo’s customers want very specific things that Microsoft isn’t really offering. For example, Nintendo caters extensively to parents who want a safe space for their kids to play online. The Switch doesn’t even SUPPORT voice chat without the aid of a separate smartphone. Xbox Live is notoriously the opposite of that, because they focus on teens and young adults, who Sony are also targeting. Basically Nintendo sells to a very specific market, and the other platforms sell to “everybody else”.
By contrast, in the 90s Sega was SPECIFICALLY trying to steal customers from Nintendo.
Nintendo aren’t in the console war anymore and have’t been since the gamecube. Nintendo consoles sell on the strength of Nintendo’s first party titles, of which they have many. Nobody else can use their IPs, so that’s their USP and as a result they don’t need to compete with anyone on graphical capability or processing power. It’s its own market.
I’m starting to think that maybe I shouldn’t be trusting the Lemmy codebase.
