If it’s a code you don’t own it. If this slides you will never own a game going forward.

Your thinking like a logical person…not a sycophant with an entitled attitude to their gains.

“would produce a high-quality product,”

Ai couldn’t do it. Real engineers can. However C suite gonna rebute high quality in favour of service and product that fleeces the most of the buyer.

Did they think everyone was gonna be creating return value based products for the company to make a fortune on?

Instead they making posters and having crazy convos.

It’s like someone has just discovered salt and every restaurant has it. Each thinks they are unique and gonna be the GOAT.

Yeh but the people trained ‘number’ widget went up on their numbers dashboard. Good reason for another self awarded bonus!

So if you buy a code and for some reason you can’t play via the platform…Xbox, PS. Say it’s revoked for the usual
Nonsense reasons, etc where would refunds come in? Would that be rockstar, the retailer?

I feel this is. Blurred line of buying if it’s not actually buying.

Cowards.

Problem is becoming a platform where you cant just buy the game anymore. You can obtain a digital licence that they can revoke at any time. So it’s more rent the game. And the price is up. And they have interfered with the studio and development. Plus you also have to pay for gamepass to even launch the game you ‘paid’ for.

I’m surprised they haven’t come up with a mandatory paid service where AI finishes your game for you. Just pay for the device. Pay for the game. Pay for online access. Pay for the mods. Pay AI to finish the game…Pay extra for a summary of your achievement's.

This is it, on so many aspects. And during that they ruined the fun.

I’ve been expecting this for a whilst. It’s what they did for business users. Most office workers pretty much have a glorified tablet.

I’m not In that category and don’t begrudge gaming funds…but I still resist as it’s a form of enshittification.

You should start asking for money. Just $50 see what happens.

The destruction of ownership! That’s the right way to frame it

So one jealous that he can’t own the poly market. He really does not like not owning all the toys does he.

Or you can say is that really left? that people have been so conditioned by a right leaning Labour that this seems left?

And once everyone runs in they get locked and airlifted to the frontline.

Yup replaced mine a few times. Cheap ones are just as good. I add a dot of double sided tape or glue gun to secure.

The thing is it it was an overall fair system most people would get along with the machines. But capitalists and ‘leaders’ have started to make us hate it.
