Genuinely baffles me that people are SHOCKED by the recent turn of events with Sony Playstation

Like, did you even read "Technofeudalism" by Yanis Varoufakis? Console users are serfs to digital overlord that is Sony. Going digital-only is the only natural way forward for them.

F*ck pirates, as a man who designed video games from 1988 through 2012.

70-90% of Doom's players pirated it. If not for that we would literally have had so much more for our workspace and upcoming projects - Quake may not have gutted id Software. At least 50% of Age of Empires was pirated which helped lead to our MicroSoft buyout and eventual demise.

And your excuses of "we have to try before we buy" are complete bullsh*t. Doom let you play a full 9 levels free. Age of Empires let you play a battle free to see how it worked. We bent over backwards to ensure you'd know what you were getting into.

Damn pirates are the guys who killed game companies. like Atari, Amiga, Cinemaware, 3D Realms (Duke Nukem!)

And if you're NOT a pirate, I salute you. You are a gentleman and if you ever see me at a convention, walk up and say, "Hey Sandy, I never pirated a game." and I'll buy you a drink.

@RightSideOfAI @Teknium They made something what destroys his narrative

@hvg_core They could have bought Ferraris for Sandy too if not for damnable pirates!

@SandyofCthulhu @GameStalgiaX "Atari", you really saying pirates killed Atari and not a 1983 video game market crash? "3D Realms", did the pirates killed 3D Realms or Duke Nukem Forever? "Cinemaware", oh yeah ,the famous The Three Stooges videogame for Amiga how could we forget

Your takes somehow always bad

You'd think western AI corpos would learn a thing or two from this on how to get even more money from literally nothing instead of trying to milk their customers dry and locking models from public access but alas, seems that Chinese are better at capitalism in every way

@KeepForeverr @elder_plinius You can't really go "underground" with the LLM training because you need more money than 10 generations of hillbillies can provide

@mitsuhiko They'll make a waking up committee in a mountain retreat and consider the impact of waking up.

Why is everyone comparing Steam Machine prices to console prices? Consoles are sold AT A LOSS. They recover that loss by introducing subscriptions and costly videogames. Gabe Machine is a PC.

Even @LinusTech did this comparison in a video, which is very disingenuous take.

@Jonathan_Blow @P_AllensProfile Jonathan Blow was more of a programmer than a game dev. He was primary more into pushing tech forward with OotSS engine and later Jai, for better or worse.

Even if he wasn't interest in OotSS itself all that much, it benefited immensely making tools and source code available.
