98.5% of my game purchases since 2018 have been digital, clearly i'm not worried about not "owning" the games, because by the time steam explodes and takes my purchases with them, society will have collapsed and also all of those games will be emulatable

I still own Sword Coast Legends on Steam despite it being delisted. It sucks rear end, but it's still available for me to download and play and I doubt that'll change anytime soon.

Khanstant posted:People often speak like GamesPass gets them "free" games despite paying for the service and not owning the games and losing access once subscription ends. People also think of purchased games on Steam or other platforms as things they own in "their" library. People are willing to flex on what ownership means and even what paying for stuff is. I don't see a lot of people going around saying things like "it's not actually 'buy one, get one free' you know, you actually just bought two things" or "the 11th sub wasn't actually free, you had to pay for 10 subs in order to get it".

Ubisoft are funding a contest on speedrun.com where the fastest run of the new PoP by the end of January gets $5,000 so my advice to anyone who buys it is simply get WR

There is really no way around this issue when it comes to licensed heavy games. UBISoft hasn't delisted other games that i'm aware of, just taken multiplayer servers offline because they had a player count of exactly 0 for multiple years in a row.

It’s not just being delisted. The game will in essence ceases to exist because they’re taking down the online infrastructure that’s required to play it in any form.

Well you can take the sandwich wherever you want or even just eat it and it's obvious the point of those programs is to get you to re-patronize the joint possibly with others. People don't say they watched such and such shows for free because they bought Netflix sub for Stranger Things. Paying GamesPass for a specific game and calling everything else free and paying GamesPass and considering that the fee to access their rotating selection of games are functionally identical, it's a matter of value and perspective on a users part of what they consider "free." If you played HiFi Rush for free because you really subbed to play something else, that freeness doesn't translate to some random person who wants to play HiFi Rush for free because they can't spend money to play it.

For real, we can agree on that much. I want Microsoft to take what they did with Microsoft Flight Sim, but for driving.

in 2024 your metroidvania options are (1) $50+ from a major developer, which will get a bunch of complaints and not sell well enough to justify an immediate sequel (metroid dread, prince of persia) (2) cheap by a small studio but takes half a decade to make (momodora, silksong) (3) anime games that come out of nowhere and are good if you can get past the aesthetics and occasional wack as gently caress writing (deedlit, tevi)

The only folks that can get away with that price for a 2d metroidvania is Nintendo. it's to sell more subs to Ubisoft's subscription service think of games like The Lost Crown as The Other Side of the Wind of these subscription services. High prestige offerings that attract attention and talk. It's similar to Pentiment in that way. Except of course Pentiment is half the price and on Steam.
