My point was that I didn’t even have to look at the forums to know they were fuckin miserable for those games, not that they’re the only bad parts. Just write it off as a fuckin nasty cesspit not even worth digging through for troubleshooting threads
No, I don’t. That’s my point, they’re so unmoderated it’s all just bullshit, and the problem is that it frequently and regularly devolves into hateful bullshit. I wish Valve would have a more robust moderation system so the forums could be more useful. However, Valve just pushed the problem to the developers and doesn’t ensure any baseline level of quality between games.
As much as I do actually like Valve and Steam, this is a big issue and has been forever.
Before the guillotine got them
Frankly I’m shocked people don’t recognize how prevalent it is. So many game releases have discussion forums plagued with “anti-woke” bullshit plastered everywhere. I just write off the forums for any game that features a black or female main character, let alone LGBT representation.
You definitely aren’t looking very hard
No mods online? That sucks big, there’s several mods I really don’t want to do without.
It’s a great place to create extremists, there is basically no moderation and people say some fucking awful shit on Steam forums. I think this is a long time coming, honestly.
Yeah I’m not sure what they’re actually doing here, GOG has always included fixes and patches for the games they distribute.
They’re cutting support for windows because Microsoft is, it isn’t valve’s responsibility to uphold a depreciated operating system. GOG is doing this because they are explicitly operated as a platform for supporting these old games, Valve is a general game marketplace without any real stated obligation to support older games if the developers won’t.
Also this has very little to do with what you’re talking about. It even states they are taking old games and supporting them for modern systems, not supporting old systems at all.
Edited to seem a little less confrontational
At this rate? Leaving most of the internet probably
They are capable of it, but I don’t really see why they would. Making the tokens cost more gold would mean less people willing to buy them on the AH and therefore less people selling tokens. I think the prices have just exploded because of the mount releasing. As someone else mentioned on here, I believe Blizzard just sets a minimum price for tokens.
You can not sell gold to Blizzard
Edit: I stand corrected, you can purchase tokens and turn them into game time, but I didn’t know they could be turned into $15 battle net balance. This mount does, indeed, cost less gold than the original Brutosaur (or did before token prices skyrocketed)
Yeah it’s always been a status symbol. Nowadays it isn’t even that useful because they put auction houses in the expansion cities anyway, so it’s basically just a status symbol for people who spend WAY too much time on the auction house. This mount isn’t even half as P2W as people would have you believe.
That thing is still earnable every so often in game if you catch it on the black market
They did not remove it, people still use them all the time and it’s available on the “black market” (an NPC that sells normally unavailable things) every so often. The mount was just an enormous gold sink for people with a ton of money.
They probably meant 170k gold in-game
Also what they haven’t said is that the price is set by players of the game,. When someone buys a WoW token and exchanges it for gold, that’s because a player has paid them with gold they earned for the token. These tokens can be then used to pay for your monthly subscription.
Yeah, you guys have a fair bit more than a “boring” level of corruption yourselves, tbh.
The TRPG “Troika!” has a module that is basically exactly this called “Get It At Sutlers”
It just generates a dungeon crawl contained entirely within a department store by the name of Sutlers
Then why are you in the discussion
