- Comment on "Official" Russian Military game depicting invasion of Ukraine released on Steam as Yunarmy propaganda 5 days ago:
Back in 2018, Steam stated its approach to content on its platform was "to allow everything onto the Steam Store, except for things that we decide are illegal, or straight up trolling".
A social media account linked on Steam to the game’s developer includes a post suggesting Ukraine’s refusal to surrender will provide “a lot of content to make more missions in our game”.
I’m pretty sure that qualifies.

Is that how it works? I thought content is only hosted on the original server, and each instance only shows a temporary copy at best.
If every instance is duplicating the content of every other instance, wouldn’t they crumble under the hosting costs in… hours?

These are the total numbers and includes the at-risk games. Which may not be helpful to some, since the fate of those games is unknown.
- Comment on 70% of games that require internet get destroyed 1 week ago:
We looked at over 700 games that have or used to have some sort of online requirement…
… First up are dead games, which means no one on Earth can currently play the game. It’s not possible…
…Next, we have at-risk games, which means these games are currently working, but they’re designed in such a way that the second the publisher ends support, they will become dead games without some sort of intervention…
… Next, we have dev preserved, which means the game would have died, but the publisher or developer implemented some sort of endof life plan, so now the game is safe…
… And finally, we have Fan Preserved, where the publisher did nothing or practically nothing to save the game, but fans managed to either hack it to remove dependencies or reverse engineer a server emulator so that the game was saved in spite of the publisher actions. It’s worth stating that almost every time this happens, it’s an incredible amount of work and it’s a small miracle it happens at all. So, here are the stats on all the games that we researched.

Survival horror is not my cuppa, but Alpha Beta Gamer recorded some gameplay from the demo(?) it for people who like that sort of thing:

When marketing to the “I only read the headline before commenting and sharing” crowd, anti-abortion is a loser compared to pro-life.
Pro-bodily-autonomy doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.

I’m only eleven chapters in, but so far I haven’t seen gratuitous sexual violence.
I have seen a lot of regular violence, but it’s not played up the way it is in violence porn.

::: Bisected bodies on a staircase

That’s pretty much as gory as it gets for the first 100 pages, and pretty representative of my experience so far.

- Comment on On the prospect of an $80-$90 GTA 6, former PlayStation boss says 'it's an impossible equation' for big-budget studios to keep their prices down 3 weeks ago:
Shame on Harvey Randall for platforming executive bullshit:
The problem, he puts it, is inflation. Which is an unerringly boring but also correct answer: “We live in contrasting times, where inflation is real and significant, but people expect games that are ever more ambitious and therefore expensive to develop to cost the same. It’s an impossible equation.”
They’re not responding to the expectations of the people; they’re responding to the expectations of their investors.

- Comment on What Do They Get From Rock ’n’ Roll? “We might ask ourselves, therefore, just why is it that with the onset of puberty, Americans embrace rock ’n’ roll? What exactly does it do for them?” 4 weeks ago:
Brother went through ego death before writing this:
When the listener submits himself to the beat, he loosens his mind from its moorings in space and time; no longer does he feel a separation between himself and his surroundings. The difficult world of external objects is blurred and unreal; only the inner pulse is real, the beat its outer projection. Earthly worries are submerged in a tide of rising exaltation. Dream and dreamer merge, object and feeling jell: the whole universe is compressed into the medium of the beat, where all things unite and pound forward, rhythmic, regular, not to be denied.
Rock ’n’ roll is the only form in modern music which deliberately seeks these effects and no others. They are also obtainable through jazz, but the soul of jazz is its continual improvisation, which draws on a wide range of moods and which demands the keenest attention. In contrast, rock ’n’ roll dulls the capacity for attention; the steady beat creates instead a kind of hypnotic monotony. Seen in this light, RnR is only the latest in a series of rituals which have existed in many societies for the purpose of inducing mystic ecstasy, usually in connection with religion. One might think not only of African or American Indian drumbeating frenzies but also of the cults of frenzied dancing and shaking which periodically rose up from the main body of European Christianity. In the United States, Negro “gospel music” often creates ecstasy through repeated phrases of enormous energy, and has been more than casually influential in the formation of rock ’n’ roll. Through gospel music, RnR draws directly on both Christian and African cults of rhythmic ecstasy. It should not surprise us then that so many RnR songs celebrate the all-pervasiveness of God.

We (the gaming community) say this every time, but microtransactions and lootboxes have spread like viruses because gamers are buying them.
I hate predatory pricing on principle, but whale votes count for a lot more.
