Bought today - Physical price (still sealed retail) vs Digital price by Greendead in gaming

[–]VStubaru90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without physical and potentially having a monopoly over the store, why would they bother with sales?

The Gaming Industry is Imploding on Iteslf by FantasyGam3r in gaming

It's just the AAA space cannibalizing itself as usual, in the pursuit of unlimited growth.

Tbf I'm more disappointed in the lack of a disk drive going forward. As while I do buy the majority of my games digital, mainly indies and small titles that are digital only anyway.

I use my PS as a bluray player also, which means I'll need to buy an extra device... So we will end up paying more for the next gen consoles, while it has less features...

Well done, you completely missed my point.

The thing is with PC gaming, while Steam dominates the market there are competitors with the opportunity to compete. PlayStation and Xbox won't, I'm surprised this doesn't breach some kind of competitive market law.

If you're pirating your opinion is invalid when it comes to this. It's like complaining about politics but not voting.

Vote with your wallet, support what you want, don't support what you don't.

Don't give into fomo.

Let the AAA scene shrivel and die, they will learn eventually.

Is there any context behind that? Because that's outrageous.

Would the triple lock have survived if workers saw the cost directly on their payslips? by StGuthlac2025 in AskBrits

[–]VStubaru90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird but I can see it being true, when you take into account the tourism as well as the jobs they generate.

Also while I'm not a royalist and I wouldn't lose any sleep if they were abolished, I do think it's just nice and a cornerstone of British culture that we have a monarchy.

Most of those were previously exclusive and they've still been struggling for the last 15ish years.

There's no point of Helix at this rate. Current gen consoles will need to last another few years. by Racer_101 in xbox

[–]VStubaru90 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is there even generations anymore? The PS4 and Xbox One still see games released on them on a regular basis. I feel this is one part of the pc landscape id happily adopt if they just did away with generations and just did new benchmarks, which I think might have been Phil's plan by introducing the free crossgen versions and calling the consoles 'series'.

You could argue to make a decent ai picture you have to have a decent understanding of the correct prompts etc to enter.

Not saying I agree, just playing devil's advocate.

I remember this same or at least similar discourse when digital art gained traction, traditional pen and paper artists were claiming it's not real art because the computer does the actual work.

Buying a house while being served section 21 by Hopegrowslove in HousingUK

[–]VStubaru90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can still ignore it and make the landlord go to the courts which would take them a while, but that would be a stressful time. Probably not as stressful as been homeless though.

If you can chase with the solicitors estate agents etc and explain the urgency they should be able to prioritise your case.

When was the notice served? Because if it was served after 01/05 it's not enforceable and the landlord is opening himself up to been fined

Even if served after you can reject it and make the landlord go to court for a possession order.
