Thanks for the offer, but I got Postal 2 ages ago before the block was implemented.

You need age verification. And not of the “upload a picture for an AI to take a look at” kind, but the kind where a government worker checks your ID. So some games, e.g. Postal 2, are just blocked in Germany as a result.

And I guess if you’re located in Germany, you already can’t buy these games, and therefore also can’t claim this giveaway.

It’s also too awkward to actually use.

Reminds me of the Omegle zombie survival game:

1. You have six shotgun shells.
2. Connect to a random person.
3. If they ask “ASL”, they’re a Zombie. If you have a shotgun shell left, you shoot them and use up one shell. If not, they bite you and you die.
4. Ask “What is OP?”. If they give the correct answer, they’re a fellow survivor, and both of you refill your shotgun shells.

Which actual criminals can circumvent, and takes away anonymity from children, which is by far the best protection for them. So yeah, if you want to protect children, this is a serious step back.

A thing about how the group’s goals are contradictory: Sex education is probably the best tool to protect children from sexual exploitation. So stopping sex ed aids child molesters, by making it easier to manipulate children.

Does it count as repeatedly when its in a time loop?

The problem here isn’t that the games are bad, it’s that people are being taken advantage off. A lot of effort goes into making these games as enticing to spend to spend money as possible, which leads to people spending more money on them than they can afford. Vulnerable people are being taken advantage off, and that’s not okay.

There were a number of mods that fixed that, which I would like to note is not a defense of the game. The one I used was Ordinator, which is a perk overhaul. For the magic skills, it makes it so that the first perk of the tree makes spells scale, up to twice as much damage once you max the skill out. The magic perk trees in that mod also provided a bunch of other nifty abilities. For example Illusion had a perk that added I think 1d20 power to spells such as ‘fear’, allowing you to try your luck in casting them at targets that are normally out of range.

AI content already appears to be at the point where it’s absence is considered positive.

Could you link a screenshot of the LinkedIn post? I don’t want to make a LinkedIn account.

A big question is, how many sales are actually lost to pirates, or, how many pirates would have bought the game if they couldn’t pirate it. The answer is neither zero, nor all of them, but I don’t know what the actual answer is.

The reason why DMR tends to get cracked is that the concept is inherently flawed. If the entire game runs on your machine, then everything needed to run the game has to be on your machine at some point. DMR is security by obscurity.

I’d say it could go either way. You could publish a positive piece on a company and then buy stock in them. They can make a profit whether their research turns out positive or negative. This would however give them an incentive to sensationalize their results, to exaggerate their findings, be they positive or negative.

Riding a creature. “Daggerfall” had ride-able horses. That’s the oldest example I can think off. But there’s probably something even older than that.

That sounds like a bad idea.

Stellaris was released 2016, 8 years ago, 21DLC/8years = 2.625 DLC/year.
