You can publish on Steam without DRM. I don’t really know what point you are trying to make.

I also feel a need to point out payment systems are not complicated. You can build your own payment and distribution for your game, or you could pay a 30% commission for someone to do it for you.

Steam is not the problem when it comes to DRM. Steam offers a service, it’s the publishers who choose to use the always-on DRM.

Bog. Although mummies bursting out of a child’s chest has been add to the list horrors to use on my players

You are not required by Steam to use their DRM, it’s a service they offer. Publishers make the choice to use the DRM.

Culprit in what way? It’s the developers and publishers that put the DRM on the games, not Steam.

I don’t think they, there is nothing stoping anyone from selling their game through another means. It’s possible to build your own website, take credit card payment, and distribute a game that way. People don’t do that because it whole lot of extra work and it’s easier to pay some 30% commission to sell it for you.

This is not just a Steam issue, I have games I bought and will never be able to play because of DRM. Until laws change, this won’t change.

That’s not an issue with Steam that is an issue with consumer protection and copy right laws.

I now just throw random shit at my players and see what the engage with. Last week they decided the frog must be up to something so the frog lead them to a bog full of bog mummies. Anyways I almost TPKed the party and now they are hell bent on killing all the frogs in the swamp.

You lost 60% when selling physical media in stores, 30% was an amazing deal when steam launched

I spent 3 hours editing my bosses AI generated slide deck yesterday. I am really feeling number 9

I am pretty sure the guy had some ment illness going on. I watched some videos after he died and he sounded like the guys at the group home I used to work at.

It took me a moment to get it. At first I thought this was a reference to captain Kirk saying Sora died like a red shirt. The I was like oh yeah there was that forgettable man named Kirk that die.

I will argue that the glass being half empty can be an optimistic view. The empty space is an opportunity to fill the glass with something of my choice. For example I could fill the remaining half with orange juice concentrate to now have a full glass of orange juice.

Yet I only need an integer when using the imperial system, and I don’t have to repeat 3 into infinity.

When you can divide a meter evenly by 2, 3, 4, 6 we will talk. Until then take your crappy base 10 measurements and stefu!

There is a third problem. It assumes talented people are will return to jobs where they can be fired at the whim of a presidents.

I find people who try to stand out and play up their work insufferable. What I find more insufferable is that this works for getting ahead
