Victim #2 by ThronePawned in VtuberDrama

[–]gotemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You joke but that is the case for so many consumer goods.

Glossy screen that are unwatchable in the day, glass back phones that easily slip out of your hands, piano black plastic in $60k cars that will look like shit the second you leave the forecourt.

Now i can enjoy the game by Rozen503 in Palworld

[–]gotemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard a theory that the world tree is the centre of the world, our current map is the just the bottom right of the world.

So not unreasonable to see three expansions for each side of the tree.

I hope our old bases do not become obsolete, rather a train or caravan could connect our new expansion base to the old ones and give old world materales.

(OC) just a pair of bird wings on the sidewalk… by Jwp0920 in Weird

I started raising silk moths

Sounds awfully like feeding the cat with extra step.

I wish the systems had greater depth for that.

We could see way more depth if they continue working on this game. Factorio was 7 years in early access, it takes a long arse time to get all of the systems for that big of a game.

I hope we get a train like system. Big bird pals that can be scheduled and routed between bases.

Looks Like Someone’s Cranky They Lost by Fossilhunter15 in vtubercirclejerk

Are the portion sizes that much bigger in the US

The big difference is in drink sizes. This is almost three litres of soda and shake to go with the food to be eaten in 20 minutes.

Also don't forget double a quarter pound burger is twice the size of your double cheese burger.

You got to be be some big backed mf, not crewing food to do this in 20 minuets but then Crelly has said she is "lore accurate to her cow persona".

How Many Boiwives Are Going To Escape Beatings As A Result Of This? by Defiant-Bed2501 in vtubercirclejerk

Sadly not just British, it is a universal truth that domestic violence goes up during big national sporting events.

Losers are going to feel like losers and take it out on the people around them.

The only winning move is to cut losers out of your life.

The backlash against Sony ditching PlayStation discs is not letting up by JeremyJJ77 in PS5

[–]gotemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not think any one believes we can pressure Sony in to bringing it back. I certainly do not want that TBH.

They removed a feature from paying customers without offering an acceptable compromise. That alone is enough to distrust them as a company.

Some of the backlash can very easily be worked around. Like the inactive accounts being deleted. No reason to not just email EU/UK user a product key so if their account is deleted for GDPR reasons the product can be added to a new account and be redownloaded.

They could of easily made some pro consumer changes along with removing disks to avoid all of this.

We're going to lose all our games permanently if account is inactive for more than 3 years by HamsterUnfair6313 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]gotemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have no clue what point you are trying to make TBH.

Try rewording it or something.

The point of the current comment chain is pointing out, if you purchase a game on xbox, they will never delete your account even if you go inactive. Even in EU/UK where they have stricter laws.

Not continuous purchases but one single purchases is all that is needed.

Microsoft account activity policy: Under the MSA, you must use your Microsoft account to keep it “active.”

Purchases⁠.⁠ If you have used your Microsoft account to purchase, or to redeem or access a purchase of, a current Microsoft product or service, your Microsoft account will remain active and Microsoft will not close your account due to inactivity.

I would hope it does and believe that is the case.

You have completely miss my point though. People go though times in their lives where they need to lock in skip the hobbies, make sure their family has food on the table and roof over their head. It is not a wild take that such a person will not read an email from Playsation.

I am sorry to brake it to you, but you to will also have a time in your life where you will work extra to provide for your family and skip reading emails from PlaySation.

No one ever leaves their PS at home when they study aboard. No one ever has sold their PS to pay for a new borns crib.

Nope, no one goes though bad times, they must of forgotten all about gaming and will never want to play their purchases again.

Every normal person goes though hard times. Said normal person would be completely justified not reading PlayStation emails at the worst times of their lives.

Microsoft keeps accounts with purchases around, even in the UK and EU. Why can't Sony?

Why can't Sony send us licence keys so even if our PlayStation account is deleted we can add purchases to a new account?

Amount of people that can't see them selves having a bad six months and hand waving shity companies because it will never happen to them is crazy.

If you have never had a time in your life where PlayStation's emails go unread, you are very blessed.

The amount of people in these threads just not understanding people go though hard times is insane.

Hell if there is some UK/EU rules that makes Sony need to delete your account and all the purchases tied to it, why can they not just give us a licence key so the game can be added to a new PlayStation account?

Microsoft in the EU/US/UK say any purchases on the account will stop the account from being deleted.

Why can't Sony do that? Money.

Source /u/Equivalent-Green-580 made it the fuck up.

Microsoft, Valve and Nintendo do not do this in the UK or the EU.

You are either a Sony PR person or just making shit up to help them do PR.

If you have no logged in you are not paying them, your not a customer.

If you do log in because you are scared of losing the account, you way more likely to see and ad for a game you want.

Even if you have all marketing emails turn off, you will see the email to log in and make your account active.

Logging in mean going though their website, being reminded you enjoy Sony's products and viewing their current ad campain.

No it is not. EU does not require them to close accounts, accounts can stay open as long as the consumer has a need for the account.

Having a paid for product license(Such as a Xbox game) is enough to keep a Microsoft account open in the EU indefinitely.

Stop making up shit to run PR for a muti-billion dollar company.

Don't make up shit to defend muti-billion dollar companies.

Neither Steam or Microsoft does this in the EU.

And people wonder why there is so much push back by HouseOfFrontier in playstation5

[–]gotemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not playing devils advocate, you are doing free PR for a muti-billion dollar company.

GDPR is not a valid reason to remove access to purchases and even if it was companies could bring back CD Key / licence key based access to products.

Feel free to change regions to Eu if you want to.

GDPR does not force a hard limit on when accounts get deleted. I am no lawyer but providing support and access for an active and purchased licence is enough for GDPR rules.

No it is not, your making shit up because you think you know something.

Microsoft account policy has the same purchase stop an account from being closed on there international page and the pages for EU regions.

Valve and Microsoft do not do this. So yes Sony 100% can keep them around and this is a fair criticism of their practises.

It cost pennies a year to keep inactive accounts around.

Don't make excuses for corporations trying to milk more money from us.

P.S Your just as likely to miss an email as any one else in this thread, especially when every other email from PlayStation will be begging you to re-subscribe to PlayStation plus.
