People don’t realize how much this could change the gaming market.
When physical games disappear, it doesn’t just affect collectors. It affects the entire ecosystem around gaming.
Retro game stores? Many of them survive because people still buy, sell, and trade physical games. As physical media declines, some of those stores will have a much harder time staying open.
Collector’s Editions? If everything becomes digital, what’s the incentive? Are people really going to spend $200+ for a few digital cosmetics and a downloadable license? A huge part of what made those editions special was owning something tangible.
And don’t think retro prices won’t be affected. As fewer physical games are produced, the older ones become even more desirable. Supply goes down, demand goes up, and prices climb even higher.
This isn’t just about preferring discs over downloads. It’s about ownership, preservation, accessibility, local game stores, collectors, and the future of gaming as a whole.
There’s so much more at stake than people realize, and I don’t think the long term impact is good. #supportphysicalmedia
To know how many trans women have been killed this year, and black trans women at that, makes this song nefarious.
RIP to all of our sisters that lost their lives to this shit. You deserved better than this bullshit society we have to survive.
transgender is walking around minding your business and then every so often remembering you opted into a continuous ritual of shame and humiliation for a chance to be happy. "why is everyone staring at me today?" you might think to yourself. "oh right, duh. The Ritual"
I have decided to drop out of the AI program at Amazon. I will not be making a Punky Duck series. Actions speak louder than words.
My intent was to showcase artists, both new and seasoned, both inside and outside the studios, driving this new tech.
My sincerest apology to those I upset. I promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for your patience with me. I will try harder.
Doing a new Raccoon City Outbreak storyline that runs parallel to the games is a million times better than a straight adaptation idk why so many people are opposed to it
