Streaming has replaced the TV just running in the background in households where the TV was just running in the background in the past. Also, many people are using their phones while watching stuff, which is horrid.

Sucks for people who still remember when streaming services had to differentiate themselves from normal TV with more sophisticated content, of course.

As for the game, I played the alpha or beta (been a while, so I’m not sure) and wasn’t really all that impressed, but maybe because it felt like a downgrade in every way from the singleplayer games. Should I try it again? How good is it for players leaning towards solo play?

It doesn’t really matter. It’s an oligopol and they can set the prices however they want. There’s no alternative, since everyone - businesses and consumers alike - needs their product.

China can’t and won’t be able to compete, since they are far too much behind in manufacturing, chasing a moving target.

This reminds me that Epic, unlike Steam, allows crypto games on their store. For a while, it was being absolutely flooded with crypto shovelware, drowning out more worthwhile titles. It was one of several reasons why I stopped using the store for anything but the weekly free games.

In other words: Sweeney is wrong once again and it’s not doing him and his money pit of a store any favors.

Except that they sent it out to people in Germany if they had their language set to one other than German. Using this symbols this way is a crime, by the way.

I’m not the same user, but I’m still interested in your list.
