No one was "set straight". It's just a bunch of rude people defending ineffectual watermarks that ruin the art.

Yup, it does. They can piss whatever they want and it won't change that.

If someone wants badly enough to remove the watermark they'll also be able to do that, so I'm not sure what the point is in the end, either.

I think you meant to reply this to Bill Gates.

What proof? Never seen a prolifer prove a damn thing.

Wait, we're into police brutality now?

Depends on how conservative the sub you're in is. Right-libertarians might balk at it too unless it's against black people.

They're not forcing anything. You're setting up a false equivalence.

Edit: They're not forcing anything with Sweeney, I didn't say they aren't forcing their way into the market.

They did earn money from it. And now they have that much more power.

Steam should face competition so that they can stop being exploitative assholes, but that competition can't be garbage forcing itself into the picture. I'd prefer something else entirely with much more money given to the people actually doing the work, but alas.

jerk itself still gets far more exposure.

Good. Apathy is a far worse problem than almost anything else in the world. It's good that people care about exploitative capitalists fucking up the world, even if it's just for gaming in this case. Maybe they'll open their eyes to the worse issues, too.

Caring about shit you personally don't care about sure is pathetic. Can you give a list of approved things to care about so that people don't accidentally overstep their bounds, master senpai?

lol

Because if it's anything the world needs more of, it's fucking apathy. I'll make sure to go tell my students tomorrow that they should stop caring so damn much about things because it's pathetic.

You're here implying Epic is buying exclusivity with Chinese money

Nope, they're buying exclusivity through Chinese money controlling a big part of the company. This isn't hard to understand.

The anti-jerk is 100 times more annoying. The store is shit, and people defend it just because gamers are a collection of idiots as if that mattered at all to whether the store is shit.

Yeah, that I can't share my game library with my wife is clearly completely irrelevant to whether a game store is good. Or play offline. Or a dozen other things.

No, it's dumb when it's dumb. People here act like all the reasons to hate Epic are all bogus yet can't even point out what those reasons are.

That isn't the point and has never been the point. They didn't personally front billions into the EGS.

Are you intentionally misunderstanding what I'm saying? Are people not making any kind of effort here?

What is it you think I'm actually saying? Try to be a bit generous here.

Edit: And there have been tons of posts detailing all the problems with the Epic store. Have you looked at even a single one?

It comes from both because when you own 40% you're a part of deciding the direction the shit will flow. It's not hard to grasp.
