It’s only too high if they demand exclusivity.

And they don’t.

They are providing PLENTY of value to anyone who is listing their games there.

Would I like to see them do more now for small and independent outfits? I would! but 30% isn’t that much comparatively to the old days of buying physically distributed things in a brick and mortar store.

I remember buying final fantasy 2 (4) on snes and it cost 95$ US this was 1988 or 1989

Which was about 129 CAD (the exchange rate is between usd then and now is about the same conveniently for this tidbit)

Today after years of inflation it would cost about 250-260 USD or 340-355 CAD

I don’t fucking miss those days at all. And while there are multiple factors here in play, this is entirely fair to charge silksong 6 dollars ish per sale on a 20 dollar sale whilst the failing AAA games 30 dollars on a 90 dollar sale. There is a cost involved and it is because of steam, specifically steam, that made digital distribution what it is today. And by that I mean they have set the standard for what is a healthy location to sell your digital goods.

And to give an example of what garbage (yes you Tim Sweeney you giant whiny fecal faced fuck) digital distribution for games would look like if steam didnt actually do a great job, look at books.

Buying books on through amazon you pay more for them then you used to for a physical copy of the book itself.

Why are you assuming it’s physically draining and not mentally or emotionally draining?

Time to get on your knees

Happy to help. Most welcome

Literally today me

Saying them their is a very quick and dirty way of saying those things over there. It’s a really common expression in some areas. Kind of a country slang thing.

I the joke they are writing it like them/they as if it is a person’s pronouns.

It’s just word play at work which is usually a defining character of dad jokes

As an author he’s well known for his magic systems he creates. I haven’t read all of his different worlds but that’s what I’ve learned his thing is. Not sure about the rest of his world building but apparently the systems he creates are well received by most

I just want winamp on everything that works with everything I have winamp on

It’s pure brainrot, don’t even bother. Just clowns jerking off to their own content

I wonder if those places do a better job of being less drafty because it’s easier to know there’s a draft when it’s really cold.

It would help keep hot air inside if so which might explain why it’s so hot

Yeah also thanks because I thought they meant like the raw inside of the egg. Like the yolk and white all over the bottom of your foot and the pedals making it very slippery.

In this case the raw egg is still inside the shell. They makes a lot more sense that what my brain conjured up.

Though all that being said it does things me of the anime Initial D

The main character makes deliveries for his dad and his dad puts a cup of water in the cup holder and says not to spill any. That’s how he teaches his son to drive without breaking the tofu he is delivering.

That being if he doesn’t spill any water he is driving smoothly and with care.

Which is actually a reoccurring challenge on the Canada’s Worst Driver show. Season one is actually a great watch for winter driving skills

When my mechanic had decided to sell his shop, he got rid of his heating bill for the last few months he had to work and he used a vest from snap on (branded snap on anyway) that had rechargeable warmers in it. Was kind of neat. He said it worked surprisingly well as long as he remembered to keep it charged

Unessesarily and for no reason mean the same thing in that sentence, you can omit either one and it makes more sense. Less is more in this instance. But perhaps you know this already and it was intentional. If so apologies

Hey South Western British Columbian here, please send me as much of your snow as you feel comfortable giving us

I was curious if there was anything inside it for at least a decade. I have no idea why I’ve never looked it up. I even subscribe to Wikipedia.

Thank you

The AIDS epidemic didn’t help that at all.

Neither did the mentality of… But it’s the gays disease, so let them die… Fuck you Reagan

Try to remember the 80/20 rule (may not be accurate with those exact numbers) 80 % of people on here are invisible and rarely make themselves noticed.

The vocal minority skews perceptions but are often rather noisy about their opinions…which is just like my opinion, man

Well some of us still prefer accuracy and or precision whenever possible. Doesn’t seem like a reason not to in this instance.

After the last decade or so, some of us prefer as much disinformation removed from our lives as possible.

Scumfuck needs to hit his trillion dollar payout somehow
