Reviewers rave about a game, I pick it up and play it, and they’re raving about a new one before I’ve finished that last one.
That’s why i only wishlist games that i’m interested in. by the time i get around to them, there’s usually a sale and/or price drop. Some games have been on my wishlist for years, while I’m working through my backlog, waiting for their price to drop even further.
Yes. Germany for example requires a proper age verification with id, but since stores don’t want to implement that, they just block these games. At least GoG lets you buy them through a VPN. Steam is much more thorough and won’t let you buy them if the account has German payment info or a German address linked to it. You can create a second account with vpn and buy the games on that account using gift cards, but you can’t gift the games to your main account.

And how many people will actually see it? when he releases a video, i get it on my feed. but i have never seen a text post from any of the creators i’ve subscribed to.
A petition I don’t think will do much.
This isn’t just any regular change.org petition, that can be ignored. It’s an official partition based on EU rules, where EU parliament is forced by law to listen to the initiators and talk about the topic, when it passes.
How has no one mentioned the tetris theme? Dum dada dum dada dum dada dum dada dum di da da da
unfortunately not all of us. few weeks ago 20% voted for our nazi-party and another 30% voted a party who’s leader is willing to cooperate with the nazi-party.
Boycotts by individuals are legal.
For now…
Not that weird, since we’ve had similar things happen in Europe in the 1930s. I’m mostly wondering, what’s going to be Canada’s Stalingrad.
We allowed nazis take power once, we must not make the same mistake again.
In case you missed it, they are in power already, just not in Germany (yet).
As long as you keep a pc with the specs and OS of the time the game was released. GOG is also making an effort to patch these games to make them run on current hard- and software without the hassle of finding and downloading fan patches, running emulators/virtual machines and all the other hoops one might have to jump through to get an old game running.
Of course you could theoretically pirate the gog version after they made it run, but given that these games usually cost about 5-10 bucks and some go as low as 1-2 when on sale, i think that’s worth it to support these efforts.
The best MMO for Halloween IMO is secret world. unfortunately it is pretty dead, so finding people for group content is near impossible, but the solo quests are pretty well done and a lot of fun.
