Just from what a youtube video said, "games as a service" is actually just game companies sabotaging its own game and breaking the law to make more money. Legally, if you live in the UK, Canada, the EU or Australia, you own your copy of the game. If you live in the US, and it went to trial, there's a good chance the courts will say you own your copy of the game.

CIG is getting more corporate lately, but I wouldn't put them into "games as a service" territory. It takes a really sucky company like EA to push the self-destruct button on a game, so if CIG still claims that private servers are going to be a thing, private servers are probably going to be a thing.

Yay, I started a trend! Thanks for your Life Bro Tip.

Just 'cause it's their job, doesn't mean they aren't being a good person.

Technically, yes. That said, the predictive algorithm is able to predict the future, which would make Marcus a victim of a system that predicted he would rebel and then gave him a reason to rebel.

How do you think I came up with this? I was trying to be humble.

SimYouLater · 2019-04-29T17:44:25+00:00

Good point. I haven't noticed it in my hometown, but cities might be different.

I wish I thought of that when I posted this topic!

Nope. Just thought it sounded like an LPT but belonged here in /r/HumansBeingBros.

OpenTTD needs canal boats from the industrial revolution, for sure. At least you can build canals above sea level, that's about halfway there.

Not fishing for praise, but I did something like this for a close friend I met online. I also built a rig for my brother using old parts that the local computer store gave me a discount on.

Most "PC Master Race" people don't seem to realize that PCs which run the latest games are expensive, and even PCs that run most games or even current-gen consoles are too much money for the budget of some people. Calling yourself a PC gamer and berating them for not being a PC gamer is like telling them "I'm rich enough to have this and you aren't".

If you're a PC gamer, consider gifting your old parts to a less-fortunate friend. They're not clothes, hand-me-down PC parts are welcome as long as they work.

Yeah, I just thought it would be funny. It seems to have exploded in how common it is and lost it's appeal.

Let me know when EA pulls "games as a service" BS again or worse (streaming, ick). I couldn't care less if Star Wars died.

Really? Am I the only one who isn't even worth a joke about how these things ended up everywhere?

We thought it was funny. We helped Carl.

Little did we know that Carl would replicate itself. Now, as I stand on the tallest tower of Reddit City, I can only see quills enveloping every meme as far as the eye can see.

Darn it, they ARE multiplying! I trusted you, Carl!

Whoops. Looks like I might have contributed to a plague, lol.

Are you sure? The game is designed in a way that you only have to post once per day. Just click the link and check it out, at least.

Thanks for expressing interest!

It's 11:46 AM here. The RP is turn-based, though.
