American Psycho

apparently there's communities that take Patrick Bateman as some kind of role model

Take-Two already announced on their website there will be a time-exclusive release for PS5 and Xbox initially.

My guess is they're going to treat online like a separate game release, like they did for GTA V and RDR2, and get out a PC version when that happens.

I wonder if there could exist a solution for services like these, but decentralized, as to cut out the greedy middleman as much as possible. I mean, lemmy sort of is the application of this concept. Sure, there's still costs with running servers etc., but the protocol regulates much of the interaction.
