>>107562728I haven't bought a AAA game since 2012. Get fucked. Not my problem. Oil > Drain. Yada yada.
Console gaming is the way.
>>107562728>Can't install Windows 11 offline without CMD OOBEBYPASSNROYou absolutely still can, but you have to resort to manually fucking with the registry and manually creating user accounts via the CLI.Other than that, if you have a license for a genuine complete Windows SKU, aka not the Home edition, then you can still opt to join the system to a domain and create local accounts.And Microsoft probably is never changing that, because if they would they would instantly overnight use any and all remaining trust placed in them by the small-business market - which is the sole market keeping the lights on for them nowadays.Enterprises barter a volume license and manage shit themselves. Small businesses are those that are forced into unfavorable licensing schemes, but suck it up because just relying on MS's cloud to manage everything for them turns into a cost saver (or so they think).
>>107562728Dunno, playing on Windows 11 right now.

>>107562741>I haven't bought a AAA gameSilly, you don't have to buy games in the first place!
>>107563327The only thing more pathetic than actually buying the modern malware they rebranded as games is pirating it. Imagine your time being so utterly fucking worthless you subject yourself to modern games.
>>107562728Who cares. Linux plays everything I want to play out of the box. Enjoy your abusive relationship with Microsoft.
>>107563362I pirate AA and indie games too. I didn't say "you don't have to buy AAA games!", I said " you don't have to buy games".
