Please look up the definition of theft lmao

I'm not "delusional" (maybe tone down the ableism btw) because I don't see theft as something universally bad, stealing from companies is good IMO.

But piracy is different because again, you're not taking anything away from anyone, you're making an unauthorized copy of it for yourself.

I'm glad you at least seem to enjoy the taste of boot 🤷‍♀️

Yeah, and they keep blocking emergency vehicles in intersections and the whole city wants them gone.

They're prototypes using real human cities as proving grounds without the consent of the population.

I don't exclusively mean piracy. You can still buy big budget games on disc, and you can buy most games from any other platform, including GOG and Itch which don't implement DRM. I only care about physical media in the sense that nobody can take it away from you, and DRM-free media achieves the same goal.

Not to mention that piracy isn't theft because you're not taking anything away from anyone, you're making a copy of some files 🤷‍♀️

The notion that piracy is theft is capitalist bullshit designed to manipulate people's emotions by equating a company not making as much profits as they theoretically could have to theft lol

Steam games are obtainable in other ways. Streaming-exclusive ones aren't.

[-] hazelnot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 10 months ago

I'm not interested in their games either, my issue with it is that a lot of people are, and MS is trying their hardest to get a monopoly in the industry and/or turn everything into streaming-only subscription crap

[-] hazelnot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 months ago

That's not what I meant and you're literally wrong lol, incredible games are made every year. My problem with this is that Microsoft is trying to turn gaming into its corporate cloud-only monopoly.

[-] hazelnot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 10 months ago

Except Microsoft is building up a monopoly on gaming, buying what they can, consolidating its properties so they can then transition to a streaming-only model where nobody owns anything (I know you don't technically "own" the games you buy either but at least you can have them on physical media to keep, back up or sell) and the only way to play anything is to pay a monthly subscription fee and to use only what Microsoft allows you to use (i.e. no more Linux gaming)
