Like I've said before, for me it's GOG or Piratebay.

BTW, I won't even have a discrete GPU on my PC until around Cyberpunk's release date, so I'll be playing mainly monocled games until then.

I just went and invested the massive sum of 3.99 eurobux for a 3-month subscription.

There are a bunch of games there that I'm sorta kinda curious about but nowhere near enough to buy them at full price, or close to, or watch out for discounts. Just downloading a mad viking simulator. Pretty sure I'll get four eurobux worth of entertainment out of it during the next three months, if not I can always cancel.

Nice knowing you.
1. You think you've known me? :lol:
2. You have a lot to learn, little scooter.
3. Don't thank me, thank Tim Sweeny.

Seriously, if I'd have to create an account at MS's bullshit store just so I can spend $5 on a game that Tim Sweeny has already paid for, it makes more sense to just pirate the thing and donate the $5 to a Twitch thot, or to the Codex.

Feargus or Microsoft couldn't wipe their ass with my $5.

Fella, I have nothing against piracy. Sometimes people just don't have the money, sometimes they're cheap sluts. And that's fine.

But spare me this edgy teenage grandstanding how you're heroically resisting evil corporations by downloading games on the internet, it's embarrassing.

Outer Worlds still looks like fucking shit with horrible "omg so zany and lol so random!" millennial sense of "humor", I bet Rick and Morty fans will love it.

No, I don't give a shit about resisting corporations. You are getting your panties in a knot because the game is in a "pay what you want" status, and I choose not to pay, because it's not on my platform. Well screw you, you pay if you like to, I'm not judging you for that.

Sweeny buys out the rights to sell the game from everyone else, and that's ok for little retards like you. The game goes for free on a platform where I need $5 to register and I don't want to register, and I'm somehow evil. Fuck you.

Fuck QBitTorrent (used until it randomly capped speeds. Looked everywhere for a solution. Others have this problem too. Every update it gets worse). Deluge is much better. Easy to use, customizable, good speeds, light on resources, good times.

Spastic try hard writing, obsidian combat, art direction launched out of an aids riddled beelzebubs ballsack.

Fucks sake.

Best shot from the trailer. I didn't expect the open areas to be that big.

That's like 300ft. m8

The trailer. I LOLed. I think this is gonna be a good clean janky zany B-movie and there's room in the world for that.

We're living the "Zany" B-Movie here in clown world, I don't need it in my fucking games.

Looking more like Borderland and Bioshock is a big turn off for me. The art styles and setting have been overdone in cartoon, comic and other games. So much for 'from the creators of original fallout'. I thought whites are the most creative people on earth. And I hate for the fact that there are too many bald space marine looking guys as main characters in modern video game. Warhammer Space Marine games suck btw.

:hmmm:

Then just don't play it. I want to play phoenix point, but now I won't even touch it because it's a epic exclusive.

Sure Epic is being a piece of shit, but that doesn't suddenly make piracy a "OK" behaviour.

This "Epic is a piece of shit" meme needs to die. It's no more a piece of shit than any capitalist cashgrab corporation is a piece of shit and less than some. Steam is the really big steaming stinking pile of shit in the middle of the room. Epic at least gives the devs a fairer slice of the revenue and gives them better deals in other ways as well.

tl;dr anything that chips away at Steam's dominant market position is an improvement

Epic or no Epic, piracy has always been an "OK" thing. Only under a system as fucked up as capitalism could simply making a copy of software be considered something so terrible.

It's a good thing they didn't use the evil Unity engine that allowed them to publish Tyranny, POE1, and POE2 on a truly free operating system.
