You first.

What if it was an unusually charismatic zombie with a tragic backstory?

Ok. How would you say does it prep?

What definitely did happen to me is I booted into windows, shut down, on the next startup there was no more grub menu, just instant boot into windows. (Separate physical drives).

Remember, just one. In my prep time I’ll build pit traps.

One zombie. I could win against one zombie. With prep time. I think.

Ok, but which? Can you sue them if Galaxy, a free tool that they provide for convenience and that isn’t required for the actual service, doesn’t work, or if it breaks a game? Name one thing.

I have lots of free games from GOG. You don’t have to be a paying customer to use Galaxy.

Which rights do you have?

Galaxy is free and not required. If it doesn’t work you can download games from the website (which I consider an important feature). I’m pretty sure you don’t have any rights whatsoever.

Buuut it also reinforces my point. The free open source solution works better than their in-house one.

I genuinely don’t get the “don’t pre order just buy the day it releases” thing.

Nobody ever said the second part.

Don’t pre order, wait for reviews a couple weeks after release, buy if reviews are good and no major bullshit is discovered.

What do you think you’re winning?

Avoiding the major bullshit.

Also, even if you did just buy day one: If developers have a lot of pre orders they know they’ll sell anyway they have less of an incentive to deliver the highest possible quality day one. That’s why people are telling you to not pre order. I could not care less if a stranger struggles with day one bugs, but they are helping to lower the bar for everyone else.

So does Galaxy?

Let’s say I have not yet had to do a full reinstall of Heroic and multiple associated games because something got unfixably (for my level of understanding) borked during an update.

I hear it every time: But Muh Windows is better, because you dont have to install Drivers!!!11!11elf

I come from a time when you (in Windows) had to hand pick the correct driver for the individual device from a very long list of options to make anything work, not just graphics. Not just “the nvidia driver”. Think “driver for the Sapphire RTX 12345.6.7-8 pro super max whatchamacallit RGB edition with anime waifu on the backplate, manufactured between May 21st and august 15th, quality controlled by Jeff and packaged by Tony”. If your card was packaged by Bertha instead it wouldn’t work. (Mine was always packaged by Bertha. Fuck Bertha.)

I feel so fucking old when I read complaints like this (yeah, I know, it’s because I am). Is clicking the highest version number behind the word “nvidia” considered complicated nowadays?

Even fewer people game on Mac than on Linux (judging by the Steam survey). I bet it’s not that they can’t they just don’t care.

Heroic works better than Galaxy does in Windows. They should just pay the Heroic devs for their work and make that their official launcher.

Doesn’t look like wood to me.

Not school, kindergarden. I drew a rocket, in space, with flames shooting out from the engine. The teacher declared fire = violent, I had to stop drawing. I think she also talked to my parents, but I don’t remember more than that.

Why would the sword shatter but not the shield?

Also, no 3rd person camera, so you’d only see your character in inventory screen.

That’s why you ride bikes, d’uh!

Elon doesn’t have the same cult of personality Trump does

He used to, but then he started associating with Trump.

Some people will always find an excuse to change nothing.

It doesn’t matter how many similar EULA’s people have already accepted. The best moment to not eat it anymore would have been the first time it happened, the second best time is right now.

Also, retroactively amending an EULA is a different quality, since people have already paid for the game and would be locked out after the fact if they didn’t accept.
