I'd say they're halfway there. They basically ended their announcement with "next time, expect us to shut it down forever".

I don't get that anymore... But for months my windows 10 was still trying to upgrade automatically despite my PC never having TPM. Only to fail every time of course. Now it's finally acknowledging that it's "incompatible" too.

I have a Ryzen that's supposed to be fTPM capable but since I saw lots of performance complaints I never switched it on.

There only needs to be a couple people knowing how to get a rip for it to end up everywhere.

If physical releases start disappearing everywhere, I can see piracy getting a significant boost. It will be the only way to "own" a movie and be sure you can still watch it whenever you want. Disney has been removing content from its service already, even some recent stuff.

I know Gabe Newell's old quote is being parroted a lot but it's relevant : "Piracy is not a pricing issue, it's a service issue". Steam may be a digital market, but it doesn't require a continued paid subscription to access stuff you've paid for, and it doesn't delist games whenever it feels like it.

Funny that of all countries they could have used to launch that, 3 out of 4 are in the European Union.

They couldn't choose a better place if they wanted privacy protection regulations to kick in and start asking embarrassing questions to them.

Oh, it's that guy. The "Semple vs Kapoor" stuff was funny.

Before I recognized who was doing "abode" I was going to say that name was just asking for trouble, but yeah, he knew what he was doing.

Perso, pas fan. Tant qu'à camper ça m'intéresse pas trop d'arriver dans une "tente" plus grande et mieux aménagée que certains des apparts que j'ai pu habiter.

IMO having AI dialogue is only going to make it generic and possibly inconsistent between characters or with the lore the game is trying to set up.

Maybe not too big a deal for a sandbox-y experimental kind of game, but terrible for a story-driven one. Some stuff is better written.

I guess the alternative could have been " let this Munna feed on your dreams" but it might have been too creepy for most.

Let's be honest, the only reason I was still following E3 for a while was hope that something like E3 2006 would happen again.

Since it only got progressively more boring with time, I didn't care much about it being cancelled, be it this year or forever.

That site probably : "Hey kids, did you know that steroids make you better at RingFit Adventures too?"

I didn't expect there to be an officially supported community repository too. Interesting.
