From what I've heard Neogaf is pretty much Sony fanboy central, so meh

When Microsoft first announced the XBox One the DRM was going to be draconian always-online or at least check online every set amount of time. There was to be no used games or even sharing between friends locally. Of course the outrage was massive, but TB made a video where he played the industry apologist. he went on several occasions prior and later to the announcements about how he#s a PC gamer and how he never buys used (does he even buy at all anymore?), so since it didn't phase him it was allright. After al, those evil used saled and big bad companies (GameStop, Wal Mart) are taking sales away from mediocre and bad games.

Now his own big bad company (Polaris) is taking sales away from mediocre and bad games and now he gets to taste their medicine.

Just to make it clear, I am not in support of how those companies are using copyright, a law that was put in place to protect content producers, to basically silence all criticism. It's just that TB has now been hit by the same kind of shady politics and legal loopholing he has been supporting before.

Actually I have nothing against Steam existing, I just downright hate how everything is Steam exclusive. If I had a choice, like I do with games from the Humble Store, I wouldn't give a flying f' about Steam. I tried it, i didn't like it and I moved on. At least until I found out that every new game released had to be activated on Steam. That's when my dislike turned to anger. It's not so much Steam itself that's the problem, but what Steam stands for.

Well, there is nothing to attack about the message. I mean, what kind of idiot would argue in favour of censoring criticism?

There are quite a number of veteran PC gamers there though. Also news seem to come fastest there. And great threads from time to time like this:

But I'm afraid nothing in the whole internet beats this thread:

What has happened to the user avatars in the Codex?

Administrator trolling users again

Thank you
And thank you

LOL, I can see why. His arguments are so full of holes I don't know where to begin to shooting them down. Worst part of his whole argument is that it's based on being a (former?) employee of major brick&mortar store chain that had practice to push used games down customers throats over new copies and he has the audacity to use that to support reduction of consumer rights, rights that have existed for since the dawn of mankind. And for what? For the profit of multi-billion dollar megacorporations. Funny thing is that he seems supportive of Steam's model, a model that ultimately leads to same situation that game industry had when brick&mortar stores were the main distributor of games. You could already argue that we already are or are at least close to same point as getting into steam seem to be matter of life and death for devs.

Wow...who is that Cleve guy, is he for real? When you search the net you find all kinds of funny discussion with him.

See what you caused trying those features! : ;-p
Aaaand the new avatar system crashed spectacularly with longer than screen error message :-p

The site's tagline says, "Doesn't scale to your level" :P

That's RPG Codex. You leave your sanity at the wardrobe.
