This is getting silly. Every time you bring this up, I’m going to bring up the fact that the only other person who was involved in that little spat was you. And now, you’re the only one, because the other guy got on with his life, but you can’t.
This was such a small event, but it seems to fucking define you to this day.
I’m glad you’ve found the one place where dictatorial moderation and misuse of mod powers is okay, because you only saw it happen to one person. I’m not sure why you think you have some sort of gotcha point there.
The mastodon screenshot is all that is needed to prove that this guy was unfit from the start.
People like this should not receive benefits from the platform they tried to abuse. A simple copy paste of the evidence and information whenever it pops up in my feed is barely any effort.
Besides the fact I think that linking to the primary source of information is already more important than linking to someone’s post about it.
Hopefully this encourages developers and publishers to re-evaluate kernel level anything.
Sadly i don’t think it has any impact. For example, for Riot games no one complained about Vanguard except Linux gamers.
I didnt buy Helldivers 2 because of it. Explained why to all my friends who kept trying to convince me to buy it. I didn’t convince them, they didn’t convince me… but hey I appreciate the warning in the future.
Meanwhile hd2 runs just fine under Linux, without kernel fuckery.
Funnily enough it was HD2 that finally convinced a few of my friends to hop on over the Linux
Yeah, i mean it’s not useless to make it visible. It’s a good news in the end.
Plenty of others complained, the difference was just that they could swallow the pill and keep playing. Linux players were just fucked.
True ! But now we have an excuse to play better games
Valve continues to do the minimum to keep it’s users happy, and that’s 100x better than than the industry standard. Tiny steps but in the right direction.
This is a fantastic addition to the store page that I’m sure will cut down the number of refunds valve staff have to deal with. I wonder if publishers will complain about this transparency impacting their sales …
I really hope they do complain, because that’d be great confirmation for anyone considering adding this shit that it does in fact impact sales.
EA: complains 2 months later
This will make the boycott against the games that dont work on Linux easier.
Don’t they already do that?
