Next step in the saga, Sony buys off EA as a counter attack.

It happened to me last year or something. Reset your password and it’ll be fine. It was probably leaked.

Or do the smart thing and stay here instead. :)

Right, got it, thanks a lot. I’ll stop downvoting in that case, except if something is really offensive.

Alright, a question for you all about down voting. Is the platform, or the apps made for it take it into account for feeds?

ie, if I down vote everything I don’t like seeing does it get removed from my feed? If so I’d just down vote and move on. If not, I’d probably not down vote, but even if I did, I’d feel like I need to give a reason behind it for the poster to know.

I’d hazard a guess that most people down vote you not because you don’t want to use steam or that you want to pirate, but rather because it’s most likely something wrong with your setup and you can’t be arsed to figure out what the problem is. Which might end up being a lot more serious than simply being unable to launch steam.

IMO, figure it out, get your system to work properly and then go pirate if that’s what you prefer.

Still haven’t managed to get into MAM but abtorrents is pretty damn good so far. Haven’t managed yet to search for something I wanted and be unable to find it.

Not knowing what you’re looking for, I can’t help much. But I found a whole lot of art books on cgpeers and gfxpeers in the past. But registrations are closed now I think.

Last time it got so bad that I started duping to be able to function there with a new character without nolifing the game. Something which I had promised myself not to do ever in this game, ever since I learned how back in 2007.

I heard a lot of people with performance issues, luckily I never had that problem myself for whatever reason. Regardless if it was with the new or old engine.

Then again, if I ever decide to play again, I have an entire roster of lvl1 chars with the entire set of the store QoLs to go, from all the keys to the gardens, to stupid amounts of VP/tokens, to banks and portable stores and even endgame armors and a complete set of twinking weapons/armors for every skill/ability at every breakpoint. So it’ll be easy to get back into it.

Though I doubt I ever will again.

Meanwhile, 162 days and counting for dead space.

Doesn’t make me want to buy it, without trying it out first, but saying hours to days for denuvo is…a joke really. Sure there were a couple of games that were cracked in a couple of days, but that’s a handful of them in the last 6 years or so. Most take a long, long time.

It’s not. Most of the time it’s fine, but there have been cases in the past that they added their own DRM in the games.

Mine would be Anarchy Online. Still around, though FC has ran it to the ground and not too obscure, considering it used to be quite big before 2005ish, but almost nobody talks about it in EU and the few times they do is to comment on the dreadful launch.

But I doubt there’s a game I’ve sunk more hours into, playing constantly from release up to 2011 and then on and off until last year. Eventually I figured out it’s just nostalgia and it’s not worth it anymore, the time, let alone the sub.

Do you happen to have a good guide I could follow? I really like the idea behind playnite and how good/useable it can look, but I get lost every time.

If not for the rest, at least for emulators/retro gaming.

I really, really want to use it instead of having a bunch of launchers for pc and emulation but it’s too damn fiddly. Cant get retroachievements to work, normal achievements tab is forever empty, no way I found to have a unified control scheme, most of the plugins I tried do absolutely nothing, like the deal finding one, I could go on.

Not saying it doesn’t work, obviously it does. But it doesn’t for me sadly. And I can’t spend a week on trying to get it to work. Two days of following guides online, did nothing for me, so I just gave up.

After my last visit on r/piracy, I’m of the mind to close it down for good and if reddit wants it back they can do so themselves.

Sure, there’s a few people there that honestly ask question about the community since they weren’t checking reddit at the time, but any attempt to explain has people insulting me. They want to stay there? Fine, cut ties and let them moderate it. That means they inherit a community someone else worked hard to build but whatever. With the attitudes I notice, they are not going to manage to keep it running for more than a few months anyways.

Best I’ve seen so far is 16TB for 30 bucks on Mega. Don’t know how okay they are with piracy however, I’ve seen a few DMCA’d links from it in the past.

Sonarr and radarr can use torrents just as much as they can use usenet. I used them for both, now I dropped usenet altogether.

I find it easier to either DDL or torrent, plus a lot of the stuff I’m after recently proved hard tto find on usenet for whatever reason.

It’s more hassle to search usenet for my usecase and while it’s true that maxing out download speeds is awesome, I’m not in a hurry. I let the .arr apps do the work while I’m busy with life and when I get back home I have it all ready anyways.

No it’s not. You can find literally everything on torrents. Even with Kodi/Stremio, I could always find what I wanted to stream when my debris ran out.

There’s only one case that I can’t think of a way without premium link generators and without waiting for months on end, and that’s switch emulation, and that only if you want the latest updates/dlc.

But honestly, if I found someone reputable selling modded consoles, rather than picking someone random at etsy, I’d be their income for a year or so. After finishing my Roms and redumps collections, getting modded and working (to refurbished standards) hardware would be the next step. I love emulation but I much prefer original hardware if given the option.

But I suck at soldering and hardware modding/fixing in general. I don’t even care if games are included, just give me the option to pop an HDD in on some quality modded console and I’ll be happy.

Not a server solution but it’s not a desktop app. On androids there’s Seeker that does an excellent job of connecting to the network and downloading what you want.

You will not get banned for not sharing. What actually happens is that some people have scripts to see if you’re sharing, if not they refuse you access to their files until you start sharing. That has to do with each individual and nothing to do with the network itself, other than the fact that it gives you the option to deny access.
