Turns out speculative value is made up.

It’s too much work to use, plain and simple. It has officially become more of a hassle to run Windows than it is to just download a user-friendly Linux distro and learn about docker.

This is exactly why it’s important for people to learn about how capitalism functions instead of how to identify morally condemnable behaviour. A liberal with think Steam is fine so long as they remain “horizontally” organized and Gaben remains the special boi he is, but will only be bad if it the company gets “greedy.” There is no benefit to PC game distribution being controlled privately; any media distribution.

I sit in front of a screen for a good chunk of the day and also like video games, a 144hz monitor has been an absolute necessity lest I get motion sickness by the time I get to the video games.

Kind of an ephemeral thing though, isn’t it? Saints Row 1&2 were deeply influenced by the contemporary hiphop scene and limitations in game development at the time. A constant issue with these attempts at remakes and reboots is they don’t do the work that is necessary to capture the feel of the time these games were made in. How could you make a game without the ugly mid-00s bloom feel like Saints Row 2?

Fucking crazy that they’ve had the franchise for fourteen years and still can’t design clear cisuals. The fucking lighting engine makes the enemies blend into the background like, god I hate how they make games now.

I don’t think it’s new info that there is a substantial percentage of fascists in communities that are predominantly cishet men.

Crazy how these guys keep talking this way and still feel safe after this past year.

Has anyone else noticed an uptick in Wolfenstein content in the past year? I wonder if anything happened that encouraged a bunch of people to revisit a franchise about killing Nazis.
