EGS losing money has been great for gamers, as they continue to give away free games in an attempt to claw any marketshare. Gamers continue to win as long as this situation lasts. But reading these comments, nobody seems to recognize this.

Yes, instead they will discontinue their websites and make you use their app.

Dude can charge whatever he wants, and you can choose to buy it or not. Super weird and annoying responses here.

I love Brave, use it daily, and this article didn't convince me at all. Vaguely motioning at the founder's ancient political donations or the optional crypto features, doesn't make a strong case.

I feel like it's one small community instead of an interconnected larger one, unfortunately.

Everything is gonna be alright.

This was one of those games I thought was alright when it came out. When all the DLC came out I played through it again and really enjoyed it. But recently I did one last playthrough, and at this point, I think it might be my favorite game?

I developed an early VR game called Soundboxing. It was a VR beat game before Beat Saber. It was doing hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales on Steam, but Facebook repeatedly denied us access to their store with no explanation, bought Beat Saber, basically took over the industry and shut us out. They even sent us early Quest devkits that we spent 6 months porting to, only to be denied again. I'm super salty about it all tbh. But yeah, this is not that, this I see as an absolute win.

Again, another thread where two billion people joining our network and meeting us where we are ... is somehow bad. If embrace extend extinguish is really the worry, then we have a bad protocol that needs extension to be usable by those 2B people, and we should fix that.

Am I living in a different planet from the rest of the commenters here? We have much more to gain from this than they do.

I actually think this game looks pretty good, and the fact they care enough to delay it is a positive signal. It's one of the first UE5 games. I'll play it when it comes out.

No, it'll never go away, fortunately or unfortunately depending on your perspective.
