You MUST specify what that stands for so there isn’t a terrible misunderstanding with what you are suggesting.

Damn you just spoiled it for me, put a spoiler on that.

Alk@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•‘If it’s the only place to play Mario, you buy it’: Former PlayStation boss reacts to $80 Nintendo gamesEnglish2·2 months agoI do! Many of my favorites are indie games, I’d say more than not. But I guess there’s some things that you can’t do without a massive budget or many many years in development, because many nintendo core franchises just aren’t beat in quality in my opinion, at least for some entries.

That Nintendo direct had me drooling at the new Mario kart and donkey Kong games, and nothing hits like a zelda. Super mario wonder was a delight.
I only hope I can emulate this system relatively quickly. I am not a man of strong willpower.

Alk@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•Ubisoft holds firm in The Crew lawsuit: You don’t own your video gamesEnglish71·2 months agoI 100% agree. However, this statement is a very large blanket statement. I see it repeated all over the place. It’s great to pirate from greedy megacorps. I do it. It’s great. But it’s not a great statement to repeat ad nauseam because it doesn’t apply to
- small creators
- literally anything that’s not a “pay once license” (including leasing, renting, etc) If this sentiment gets too popular it will also discourage people from paying for unrevokable copies of content like from GOG or directly from a creator (patreon, etc). It’s more like “if buying isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t theft (sometimes)”
The people who argue against piracy of megacorporations’ content will bring up these points every time because this phrase makes no sense from their perspective. It prevents actual discussion from taking place. It’s not productive to our cause to use something so ambiguous and inflammatory as a catch phrase.
Alk@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•Ubisoft holds firm in The Crew lawsuit: You don’t own your video gamesEnglish21·2 months agoYeah, I am just confused on the logic. Like what is the relation between us not owning it (which is bad) and piracy not being theft? I wholeheartedly agree that pirating things is okay if a license gets revoked, and it is 100% okay to pirate something you bought even if you still have the license and it hasn’t been revoked. It’s yours. You paid money for it. But from my understanding, this statement doesn’t just cover people who bought it, but everyone, regardless of if they bought it.

Chill with the downvotes - I’m not disagreeing. I’m just trying to understand where the line is.
Alk@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•Ubisoft holds firm in The Crew lawsuit: You don’t own your video gamesEnglish1714·2 months agoI agree with the sentiment, but what exactly is the explanation for this? If you’re allowed to lease or rent or purchase a license, isn’t stealing that thing for free still theft?

He got mad at me and much of his community over concerns about decisions he was making for “block game”. We stated our concerns kindly and politely, and he got mad and deleted an entire discord channel because we didn’t agree with him and made good points that he couldn’t refute. I lost all respect for him after that.
Well I get the analogy, but also I think they didn’t use pencils because of the graphite and complications with filtering air or something.

It doesn’t always have to be relative. I could interact with the world champion self-built rc airplane racer. Or the #1 ranked speed runner for a niche video game. Or the person who holds the (unreported) world record for some niche skill like throwing paper wads into a trash can without missing.
