if gaben died i dont think even know how game industry will become
if gaben died i dont think even know how game industry will become
JGonna be a sad day really
JI hope steam doesn't become like yet another for profit games company with tight monopoly
AProbably this
Aarent steam kinda for profit and a monopoly
OThat reminds me of how the 3D animation industry was pushed forward leaps and bounds by people wanting to animate Elizabeth from Bioshock, uh, doing things she never did in the game
JI meant, the way ea and Nintendo are doing
JAnd to some extent, epic
Ayeah steam atleast do it the right way
Mthey aren't a public company, so they don't have the reason to milk every single things
Oshareholders ruin everything
AI hope not, ffs, imagine all the DMCA takedowns valve would do if it acted like ninty
JBioshock walked so that overwatch can run 
Obecause by definition as soon as a company has shareholders, maximizing revenue for them becomes the only thing they are legally allowed to focus on
Atbh kinda sad for bioshock creator lol, what does he think when he model elizabeth from his daughter
JNow I feel very very sad
Oclearly nobody told him about the internet
Alike ever heard of r34
JHe probably knew about all of that, he didn't expected it to go that far
JI'm lucky that I got bioshock infinite before I got fast internet, through different means ofc
Ohard to blame him tbh, the ability for basically one person to make such detailed animations practically sprang out of the ether
JTell your mom random internet person said hi
Olike many tools went from not existing at all to fully formed in like a couple years, and suddenly anyone could use them for anything
OI want to compare it to Bazzite or Linux in general but I know that was a much slower process
J
I'll withdraw from discussion of this topicObut from my perspective Linux went from "not even close to ready for normies" to "every normie should use it" in the blink of an eye
AThanks steamos
AFor making history
Oimagine if Windows and Linux were to switch places?
Olike all the normies use Bazzite and professionals use Windows
APlease, I am tired of bullshit copilot
OI mean in terms of market
ASame thing, I want it to happen asap
JI don't think it's ready for normies still
Omaybe not
JImma delete this else I'll be banned
Mat least my gacha work
Oit's easy to forget that what I think of as a low tolerance for tinkering is still actually higher than the norm
JWhich one?
Mwuthering with extra steps and the recent zzz out of the box
JI have a few fam members using computer as normies. They do some wierd ahh stuff and I have to chime in from time to time, since searching on web does not yeild proper results because some windows stuff does not have a linux counterpart
AWhy would you? Some games need extra tinkering because generally devs don't care for Linux and we have to make wine do all the work
Mslap a gnome with macos theme tell them it's a macos they would never know
ATrue
JIssue will arise when they are stuck, and they search the internet
AMy father said " nice windows theme" It was bazzite from my deck connected to my monitor
MI have some kernal panic here and there on fedora but issues on mint, debian or popos is just rare
JTbf, most people won't have issues unless they are used to windows way
AYeah, or if you are a boomer and your son set up your PC for you, they probably won't tell a difference because they use a browser and maybe some ways to open docs pdf excels etc
VJust regular breeze-dark?
