Larian’s CEO says that less games like Baldur’s Gate 3 will get made if the industry keeps chasing subscription models for new releases.

    I refuse to support streaming games or subscription models as they only screw the consumer in the end. These companies have shown time and time again they are not to be trusted.

    Such as editing games after release to remove media, inserting shitty launchers and DRM , removing content you have paid for such as dlc, shutting off the multiplayer servers etc

    Once they have the market streaming they can set the price as they wish and you will have to have mutiple subs to play different games. Were seeing this with movie and tv streaming now.

    They don’t care about preservation just the CREAM … dollar dollar bill y’all

    Valve is good for now and I support them to help further linux for us all but gaben is not immortal so who knows what the future holds.

    I like gog but as a linux only gamer steam is just way less hassle.

    Emulation and roms is the only way to be sure you can continue to play your games. So get building your collection.
