Nah, not furry. But it’s all vtubers, always has been.

No he is talking about his own roughly 48km² area.

Ignoring the fact that the earth is just slightly larger at 510,064,472 km²

This analogy is so bad, it is not even close to what is happening.

I will try and adapt to cars for you(I dont know why), but this is just really really bad.

Say you have designed a car, you can produce them on a very small scale, but you have come to valve(they make cars now) to mass produce. They do so, for a 30% cut(that reduces the more they sell) for everything they sell from their direct sales at the price you have set. There is no material costs or labour costs, just that cut of the price you have set.

Now valve have a sales page and are selling, and you decide that actually I would like more people to see the car, and so you consider selling it at other dealers. Valve says, sure, you can even have the cars for free from us(no 30% cut) and you can have basically an unlimited supply of free fully built cars to sell else where. We only ask that you sell the car at the same price you have set with us if you are selling a car we made.

You want to go sell it new cheaper? You are more than welcome too, but you cant sell the car we produced.

Such a bad analogy, but that is closer to what is actually happening.

Just think about how this works.

Steam currently allows you to generate keys and sell them for free, only stipulating that they must be sold for the same price as on steam.

Let’s say they are told that stipulation can’t be enforced.

Valve, will probably go with 1 of 2 options.

1 - you can no longer generate keys. So all the great key sites(GMG, Fanatical and so on) no longer exist, because no steam keys.

2 - Valve charge an upfront fee for keys generated. Now smaller pmdevs and publishers can no longer supply keys to sites, because they can’t afford the upfront costs.

What incentive does valve have to continue offering this free service? If it can be exploited for the detriment of steam, they will stop providing it.

SQL has always been Skull in my head. I think it is because I hated it when in college and associated it with dying inside.

Paige NO!

Pretty sure he means a deluxe edition upgrade as a mtx.

Where some games allow you to get the base game, try it out and upgrade if you want. Rather than diving in at the deep end and not knowing if you’ll enjoy the game.

I feel the Linux - Linux fanboy is very wrong these days. It does not have a monitor at 22 degrees

We have also had, Tekken 8, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Granblue Fantasy Relink, Persona 3r and Helldivers 2.

A couple bad/mediocre games is to be expected when we are only in Feb and this year is such a fucking banger for games already.

So this might not be the most helpful answer, but I think there have already been some great suggestions (monster hunter world and dragons dogma are both awesome).

Granblue Fantasy Relink, it is possibly the game that ticks every box. Has a single player story and is full of dragons and demons to kill, you are recruiting your crew and gearing them up for massive fights, it has some fantastic combat(had platinum games help on it).

The biggest downside is it isn’t out til February, but there is a demo on Playstation 4/5 if you have one to try it on, unfortunately PC not getting a demo.

I mostly agree, but I feel like Street Fighter 6(Going to throw Tekken 7/8 out as an option as well) has a good enough ranking system that you will be able to get people around your skill level years down the line. I didnt jump on Street Fighter 5 till Arcade Edition released, and never had an issue with learning and getting matches in Ranked, and I feel like that will be the same for SF6.

You will have to catch up with knowledge of characters, but I feel lower ranks are much easier in that regard.

However, the Street Fighter 6 Battle Hub is merciless and full of Master ranked players, and that is where turning up late is going to be painful and soul crushing(and I will be one of those people contributing to that).
