Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game
TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.ca 1 month agoBuying a game post-launch:
- Better prices; often on sale.
- Fixed and patched up.
- Extra content often included.
- DRM often removed.
No brainer, imo.

Runs out of copies? Is that a thing?

Remember when games used to, at least sometimes… do actual internal beta testing to iron out performance bugs and such?
Now we are all alpha and beta testers, all the time.
Sometimes even AAA and ‘AAAA’ games release, and then unrelease before the alpha or beta is even done!
Yeah, patient gaming for me, haven’t preordered or gone into an early access game in almost a decade now…
