Bad news: Playstation is starting to block their games from running on Proton. Playstation Overlay is blocked on Linux in Ghost of Tsushima. The same thing happened with the Concord beta. (x.com)

Dude, speak for yourself, the last AAA title I bought was MH:W at massive discout many years after the next iteration released. I've never even considered a AAA title that wasn't several years old already, that have had plenty of time to show exactly how scummy they are.

    First of all, I never said I buy them on release. I pretty much but all of my games on discount. Except for Factorio.
    And also, you tell me to speak for myself and then immediately admit to buying an occasional AAA. So turns out I was speaking for you, too.
    But most importantly, the point was that my statement will be true for vast majority of people. They aren't gonna stop buying AAA games.

    Hmm, when people say "stop buying AAA games" it's usually a sentiment similar to "stop preordering games". A purchase long after release and at a heavy discount isn't really economically relevant, especially after the next product has been out for several years.

    When you said you let a AAA game in occassionally, it seemed like you were saying you bought something like GoT when it released on your platform, and that people will continue to do that. Saying that people need to stop buying AAA games is about forcing AAA studios to change, and to stop allowing them to clown around. If everyone stopped buying AAA games on release year, that's already 90% as effective as ignoring the bargin bin sales too.

    So maybe you were speaking for me, but I think you did that poorly. The purchases that allow AAA studios to continue being dickwads are about as far removed from my purchases as you can get without learning how to hoist a sail, and even those up for consideration are eliminated 9 times out of 10. Trying to accuse me of funding the race-to-the-bottom enshitification is missing the mark.
