Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Perhaps to avoid buying them?
I personally have a weird habit of uninstalling and reinstalling games a surprising number of times. If I know there's a fee associated with it, be it for the dev or Valve, and the money goes to vultures at Unity, I won't be buying.
that'll probably hurt devs more than unity.
To avoid re-installing them then, if we're going to play by the stupid rules. Just install it once and never ever uninstall it if you have even a slight chance to play it. Also make sure your disks have multiple backups.
I'd love to live in a world where I could just install everything and never struggle for storage space.
