RTO just means "layoffs" under a different branding. These gross companies know how to be extra gross. When they really want to actually do a big layoff, that's when they'll roll out the "RTO" policy.
User friendly I would agree. Definitely has the best UX. Not sure I would agree that it's the cheapest though.
Could someone (politely) explain why anyone who criticizes steam gets absolutely scorched?
I mean I'm a user, on the PC it's probably the platform I purchase on the most. I've also used Epic, GOG, and a few of the others. Like most, I'm getting pretty annoyed by having to load what seems like 15 different platforms to play a variety of games.
But I've never understood this blind absolute cult-like following of steam. What makes them absolutely beyond any reproach or criticism? Especially when at least Epic gives away lots of free games (like I think I've spent about $20 bucks on that platform, yet it seems like I have just about every game known to man in my library). Or others that don't mess around with DRM, etc. So what gives?
I think Persona 3 Portable on the Vita had a female protagonist too. I believe it was just a port of the PSP version though.
I always struggled with the Persona games. I had P4 Golden on my Vita, and that game was pretty strange, I got weirded out by it about 15-20 hours into it, and never got back into it. They had P5 on sale at Best Buy for PS5 awhile back, I almost grabbed it, but picked up FFVII Rebirth instead. Still haven't got around to opening it either. I always did love the style of the Persona games though.
I'm in a weird space with fall activities/work/professional development course work/etc., so while I'm in between games, I also don't really want to get sucked into something too involved at the moment. I bought Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2022) on sale on steam awhile back, and realized last week that I had never installed/played it. So I figured that was a good game to bide some time with. Until I beat it this aft, which sort of sucks because the campaign is never very long on these modern CoD games.
Nevertheless, I'm now in the mood for FPS's, so I loaded up the OG CoD tonight. It's been 21 years since this game first came out, right about this time of year in fact. I was in my freshman year of college, and we were obsessed with it. A copy or two floated around the floor of our dorm, and I swear pretty much the entire floor was playing it that fall term. It actually hasn't aged that badly either. I last played through it about 5 years ago, and I imagine I'll go through it again over the next week or two.
Considering it's made by Microsoft, I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest it's compatible with Windows. Specifically Windows 10 and 11 I believe.
I'm on a replay of the single player campaign, and since this update the map is laggy as hell, and it's dropping frames like crazy.
Monetary policy makes the world go round, unfortunately.
I believe the ICC does have a dispute forum. But when you get to these IGOs, it's unbelievable how many there are. Could probably bring the complaint forward in multiple other forums too.
Ah I get you, sorry, I stand corrected. Surely such a claim would come forward through the WTO though, would it not? Would the ICC (the Chamber of Commerce) have enough teeth as the forum for what's surely a monumental case?
The ICC doesn't have jurisdiction over civil matters. The ICC only has jurisdiction over the most egregious of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, on a voluntary transnational basis (you have to be a signatory country, which I believe Argentina is).
Look at buddy over here with the 1960s lawn boy
Except that a PC with modern specs costs over $2k to build. Comparing PCs to Consoles is a fools errand, yes of course it's way better, because my gaming PC also cost five times as much to build.
I bought a PS5 earlier this year that's just collecting dust. I guess I didn't realize or appreciate until after purchase that there is very few actual PS5 titles. There is no way in hell I would consider a PS5 Pro with their current library.
I don't think it matters in the long run. Make trash products, realize trash results.
Yeah that's a fair point. But you should still be able to play offline. I'm not much of an online gamer anyways.
Yeah I think we've learned by now that if you can't touch it, you don't own it. I'm tired of "leasing" software.
