I'd cheer valve on for taking a principled stance against bigotry in my country while personally grieving the loss of my steam library.
I doubt it'll make a difference. Also almost all my LGBTQ friends are huge gamers. It's an escape, and often provides online community. And I'm in a very liberal country and they still need it here. Can't imagine the need for it in China or Russia. Whether that's healthy is a big question, but the rug pull definitely won't be.
I guess there's an argument to be made for just stopping selling games in those regions while keeping access to existing libraries
That's a looot of users they'd need to support without seeing any money from them. Might be worth it if they expect the laws to be temporary.
Be a good little fedi, put your money where you mouth is and get ready to sacrifice. Jesus Christ, 'waahhhhh, I'd have to start stealing my games '.
Jesus Christ the second valve gets involved you all become spinless DNC cunts.
Yeah so this isn't about me. It's about millions of lonely kids. Plenty will learn to pirate. Many won't. I'm sure we'd see an uptick in suicides.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌👍
@makeshift0546 @TheBlackLounge What is funny ? The fact some won't be able to pirate games because of ignorance or repression ?
Fuck all domination, oppression, and exploitation systems. That of course includes capitalism and LGBTQIA+phobia. That also includes elitism, classism, ableism, etc. These lists are not exhaustive.
That you'd rather simp for fuck faces and waste time with gpt rather than pirating a game.
Fuck you.
