Here's your digital only game industry
Doesn't happen to me. I have all my DRM-free games downloaded on PC.
>>743427684>DRM free >PCNo future
Let’s be realIf you (and that’s a big if) still have physical media lying around after 25 years you’re about to throw it away anyway. You’re not going to replay that shit and it’s just collecting dust.
>>743427783good morning saar
>>743427783hello shill
>>743427738people are really forgetting how PCs works.I still have the same Diablo 2, Aoe 1/2, Max Payne and HoMM3 folders from 2010 through multiple backups and they all work.
>>743427857>>743427937Post your 25 years old collection
>>743428069Zoomers arent “people”
>>743427608how mant times am I going to have to see this fucking headline
>>743427783>and it’s just collecting dust.Correct, because I'll reinstall from the isos on my NAS instead of bothering with finding what cdrack that shit is in
>>743428336>manteat your poopsicle, rajesh
>>743428069LOL>names old shit when talking about the future
meanwhile
>>7434285281 guyBut digital policy changes means millions of people lose access at the same time everywhere on the globe
>>743427783T. digital cuckholdI still have my PS2 games collection and regularly replay some every year because I enjoy playing on real hardware the way God intended.
>>743428528Wait did Microsoft start that fire?
>>743427608jesus
>>743428620Me too.I love whipping out the old PS2 and playing with some bros.
>>743427783Let’s be realIt's too easy these days to bait for cheap (you)s.
>>743427608>Microsoft is actively "working" to restore the 25-year-old account of Twitch streamer Joshua Khane after a massive public outcry.>The image highlights a viral news story from July 2026 where Khane's long-standing Microsoft account was compromised by a hacker. Rather than recovering the account, Microsoft Customer Support permanently suspended and wiped it to "prevent further misuse," erasing thousands of dollars worth of digital Xbox games, OneDrive files, and personal data (such as his son's baby pictures).Imagine if you're not a famous streamer.
>>743427608He got his shit backhttps://x.com/JoshuaKhane/status/2077714407447019674also let's not act like he's not at fault for not using 2FA
>>743428854>2FAlmao lol
>>743428528>acquire tangible personal property of physical goods>physical goods can be destroyed, lost or stolen>wtf we MUST OWN NOTHING RIGHT FUCKING NOW
>>743428854>2FAishygddt
>>743428814>OneDrive files, and personal data (such as his son's baby pictures)Why are normgroids so fucking stupid?
>>743427608>gets 5 emails to tell him his account may be deleted if he doesn't log in>doesn't read any of them>didn't log in for over 5 yearsThe account was abandoned.
>>743428990
>>743427608Reminder that these retards are constantly pushing this shit, intentionally confusing cloudshit and digital gaming to confuse the layman on what rights they have and to strengthen EULAs in uncucked countries like EU members where EULAs are unenforceable if they do not conform to customer expectations of their rights and you are legally permitted to sell perpetual digital software licenses.>>743428476Can be circumvented if people actually give a shit. But Denuvo only gets used by shit games, because good games benefit more from piracy than they would lose by having Denuvo and missing out on the free marketing.>>743428990>Physical goods only have value for autistic collectors or have copy protection so they can't be backed up
>>743429086>Why are normgroids so fucking stupid?I bet it's fake and just for the drama. Nobody would care if it was just some shitty games
>>743428476>Crackednuvolmao
>>743429341>doesn't get crackedHypervisor bypass is no crack and it won't work with newer hardware
>>743429456>doesn't get crackedI'll sure miss never playing football manager whateverthefuck 20XX.

>>743429551>look up list of uncracked denuvo games>they're all dogshit that's not been cracked because no one with an IQ high enough to be cracking games would play themObjection denied, I sentence you to 1,000,000 years CBT and your tardbabble is henceforth stripped from the record.
>>743429805Son of a bitch I forgot the picrel
>>743429456No bypass needed on linux
>>743429862>this nigga thinks only 600gb is impressive
>>743427608Shit like this is the catalyst to create a whole new generation of pirates with a personal axe to grind
>>743429929I mean I downloaded all the games I ever wanted to play and have played before, idk what to do beyond that. Download games I don't wanna play for the shake of rising the file size?
I had a Spotify sub pretty much since the service launched, and I'm Swedish so it was since about 2008. Had lots of playlists that I listened to weekly, often daily. Got banned last year for "suspected fraud", despite never having any issues with paying the subscription. My card had been billed successfully just a few days before even. Contacted customer service. Long story short, no way to give me back access to my account.At least it was a great wake-up call, and I've since cancelled all my subscription except one. Fuck subscriptions.Not exactly the same as in OP, but same issue, methinks.
>>743430129That's kind of sadI find new games to play every dayDownloading whole sets is even sadder
>>743430185There's not as many good retro games as you think. Most are Mario clones or FF wannabes. I still try new games every so often but I'd rather just replay the original rather than play a new imposter clone.
>>743429456Its still playing the game for free, suck it
>>743430129>this nigga doesn't play anything after the 360 era
HAHA GET FUCKED
>>743430507It's on Steam nigger. Post 360 emulators also kinda suck with the exception of a few games.
>>743430294Most games aren't jrpgs nor platformer. Tons of arcade games you're missing out on
>>743429805>Much retrogaymes and crt shadersManchild
>>743430507What. Like The Crew? Games after the 360 era are made with killswitches anyway. You never owned them.
At this point I simply don't have any sympathy for goyim.
>>743431296Most games aren't You can still play the crew thanks to community efforts
>>743427608>he didn't read the end-user-agreement before clicking "accept"lmao unc is chopped
Well that's it then. Xbox, Sony, Nintendo and Steam should be shut down.
>>743429984modern day consolefags will never piratethey will just buy their games again
>>743428126Still waiting
>>743428528LOOK AWAY MR PHYSICALFAG
