This is part of why they're killing physical games. Now they can charge full price for 10+ year old games. This makes games more expensive. Even if you wait for sales, it often won't get as cheap as buying it used. This is what we have to look forward to when they go all digital.

aight then. Support piracy.

[John Romero 🤘🏽 @romero]

Hi Sandy, I hope you’re well. I have appreciated the recent discussions. I do not agree with your framing.

Regarding piracy, DOOM is a complicated example because shareware was the model. DOOM’s first episode was designed to be freely copied, passed around, uploaded, installed, and played. That enormous unpaid audience was not the same thing as piracy. It was part of how DOOM reached the world.

By the mid-90s, DOOM had something like 20 million shareware installs and more than 2 million paid copies sold. Those 20 million people were not “pirates” by default. A huge number of them were playing the free episode exactly as intended.

That doesn’t excuse people pirating the registered game. However, it’s important not to collapse legal shareware distribution, unpaid reach, and actual piracy into one number.

I also don’t think piracy is what “gutted” id - id is still around and still making games. Piracy may have cost money, but it wasn’t the reason Quake was hard or why people eventually went different ways.

So yes: pay developers. Buy the games you love. Support the people who make them.

But history is messier than “pirates killed the companies.” Sometimes the same free distribution that looked like lost sales was also the thing that made the game impossible to ignore.

@LordofHresvelg @StellaNoxEclair @CloutStrife1st That last part I will never forgive the game for. He SHOULD have a story to tell with Basilio but NAH! BETTER YET, at the end of the game they're talking with each other and when you go over to talk to them THEY DON'T AKNOWLEGDE THE OTHER WHILE SPEAKING WITH YOU AT ALL!

[JustHoum @Just_Houm]

@StellaNoxEclair @CloutStrife1st That and the whole party feel like they exist in their own bubble and have basically no dynamics aside from protag-kun.

It’s crazy how some of the same people who rightfully shit on TNA for offering AJ Styles a 60% pay decrease in 2014 - which led to him never wrestling for the company ever again - are more than happy to hear that WWE are doing the same things to their own talent.

The kindest thing anyone can say to me is “I show this to my friends who aren’t fans to make them understand pro wrestling and they love it”.

Happy 7th anniversary to my magnum opus (my children notwithstanding).

Thanks @GCWrestling_ and @JANELABABY for the opportunity.
