Personally, I'd say the biggest problem is the lack of accessibility with Linux. I've tried to convert multiple times and always run into numerous issues even with the more Windows-user-friendly distros like Mint. I love the potential for customisation and feeling like I actually own my computer but my own experience lines up heavily with what the average console gamer thinks gaming on PC is like; a several-hour-long nightmare from launch.

Some of us have been saying that for years

Found the anti-HDD drama queen

The best kind of clothing

Can't say I've heard anything about that

Well that's a shame because that's how things like copyright laws work. That's why companies like Nintendo are so overly litigious. Whether you like it or not, people bought Helldivers 2 and didn't need to have a PSN account to play it. Now Sony is making it so they do, several months after purchase and long after customers would typically be able to get a refund. Sony never gave information on the waived requirement coming back, customers could only possibly know there was originally a requirement for yet another third-party account that serves little purpose to the user and that requirement was waived. For months now players have been buying the game, launching it and actively playing it without once signing in to PSN. This is also going to cause a subset of owners to completely lose access to the game they legitimately bought because of Sony's short-sightedness to enforce a network requirement in countries that network simply doesn't exist. This is a case of moving the goalposts, arbitrarily removing content from legally-abiding customers and this isn't the first time. Maybe you've already forgotten the controversy with Discovery? This isn't a good look for Sony to be pulling content from clients twice within 6 months, no matter how different the means.

But the BBC would just show off all those magic black vans they've got going around to detect who's watching their network without paying for a TV licence

Because it's going to lead to yet more people getting fired. The whole "necessary evil" of large corporations in society is that they supply a lot of jobs. Since they are going out of their way to not even do that anymore, we have no use for them.

Clearly you haven't tried to touch the Mona Lisa hard enough. If you make it to the painting, lick it and get back behind the line before security reaches you, you win a prize.

That serves your case less than you realise. Most people facing this invasion of privacy trust Apple even less.

Thanks, bot

I can definitely see why you've struggled so much since the common factors between the games you didn't like are the most rampant in the industry right now. I've tended to find myself in a similar situation and would only remove Spider-Man from the list of not liked. Because of constant push-backs, I'm honestly not sure what the release forecast looks like at this point because I've refused to play into the hype train for a while now.

In case you haven't already tried them, based on your favourites list, I'd recommend taking a look at Satisfactory and Jusant. The first is Factorio but in 3D so it plays into some of what people like about Stardew, in my opinion and Jusant is an interesting blend of Journey and Shadow of the Colossus from what I've played so far. It also has a rare thing called a 'demo' on Steam so you can at least easily and freely give it a try.
