Oh ok, I must've misread the article, thanks for clarifying :)

A bit of the eula says not to share info about the game, but you can literally back out without accepting the eula, and still play. So I don't know if I'd call it intentional, but there's definitely no legal reason they can't post whatever they want. They just got banned for it and might have damaged their relationship with valve somewhat. Depends on how much valve cares tho.

Edit: it wasnt even a eula apparently, just a "pls dont tell people ok?" Pop up. Thanks to the folks clarifying <3

This isn't some grand conspiracy it's a closed beta for a video game. It's pretty normal to have an NDA or embargo agreement to get access. It sounds like valve just goofed the implementation. So yeah it's totally legal for them to post it, valve just might avoid giving them early copies in the future.

So apparently they had a bit asking players to not share info about the game, but you could technically back out of it without agreeing so legally they can post whatever they want. It feels like a case of "this is legal to do but maybe kinda shitty and valve might be upset". Basically the agreement was informal and not enforceable and the verge just said fuck it. They did get banned afterwards, but I think that and not working with them in the future is all valve can do.

Edit: didn't even require agreement, so honestly it's kinda fair game. I was a bit hostile calling it shitty, I felt like it was a loophole or something but it's more Valve just saying "hey pls don't" and the verge replying "no thanks", and eating the game ban since that's all valve can really do.

It's not like I make or save a lot of money from it, but as a hobby it's been amazingly fun. Getting into basic 3D modeling has been really cool too, nothing quite hits like making something entirely unique and designed for a specific purpose, then watching your printer just crank it out in a day or two and your imagined thing is all the sudden real.

I'm sure other hobbies can do that too, but for me it was a really awesome feeling :)

No, I don't think so.

Fucking cry. Maybe don't invade your neighbors you fucking cunts.

"spend time with my loved ones" :)

I remember a chip clip model, but I can't for the life of me find it >.<

That and just printing parts where multiple colors don't matter.

I played this with some friends. I'd say if you want to try it, get it on sale and mod it. Mods add a bunch of stuff like balance changes, new skills, etc.

Just be aware what the shortcomings are and understand that the devs have a history of overpromising and under delivering. If you like the game as is, nice. If you're buying for future features then you do so at what I consider great risk.

It's classic trump. Its either dark and fascist as fuck, or the man is as intelligent as a wet fart.

Honestly I think it's both. He's an idiot, and he parrots the fascist shit that the people around him say without grasping how bad it is. Useful Idiot.

Yeah main thing is Ventoy and images for windows 10 and 11. I also have some basic tools, and some portable versions of some games I like (OoT, Warcraft 3, etc).

"but seriously" "It was sarcasm" Ok bud :)

I mean they presume that people experience heat. We all know the weather changes, it's a bit patronizing to be like "well u know its not always hot, on this post about heat".

We know lmfao.

Oh nice! I gotta go back and play that again, they added a bunch of epilogue stuff since I ran through the first time :)

Yep, shadow of the erdtree :) I've been big on invading since Dark Souls 1 and I found that the fog catacombs are a delight to invade in.

• Long zone with few checkpoints
• Lots of traps
• Elevators :D
• Imps that do bleed so moghs great rune is decent
• Marika's stakes so I don't feel toooooo bad murdering people right before they reach the boss lol.

Love those cannon imps. Such a goofy enemy, and such a good enemy for invaders. Anything that does aoe and knockback is my bff in invasions.

A theatre spokesman said later that he was in "good spirits" and expected to "make a speedy and full recovery".

He is expected to be back on stage next Wednesday for a matinee performance of the play.

Well thats something

I'd love to have kids. I think it would be wonderful to be able to be a foster parent as another option.

I can't afford it. Its impossible. We can barely afford living as it is. How the fuck am I supposed to raise a kid?

I'm shrugging at falling birth rates not out of indifference, but out of a lack of ability to do anything about it.

Sure buddy.

Do you have a link for the article you're talking about? I haven't seen anything yet confirming anything, but I imagine there's a lot of speculation right now.
