I don't care about the hype. I won't get myself hyped either. I already didn't like the trailer graphics, which looked kind of cartoonish. The gameplay will show, but they got so many billions from the online mode, that I'm not sure if they even bother delivering a good long singleplayer and not just focus mostly on the online play. I only care about the single player, where I'm not harassed by cheaters and shop popups, begging and nagging me to buy worthless online money.
Now they probably will provide a single player, maybe even a great one, as RDR2 has shown they are still capable after all. I will probably try the online mode but the last GTA was loading simulator and cheater party. And when I looked how grindy it is to get anything I stopped right away.
Opt-in but you get an annoying full screen popup every boot, like for the windows11 upgrade. It's only a matter of time, til they sell AI recall features as Win12 and then beg you to upgrade for free, pretty please!
This should count as violation of human rights. You're chained to the seat for hours and have no other option than look at this screen or force your eyes closed. Holy shit, people should get really mad. Flashing ads on a screen you don't look at directly are still very annoying, even if you look on your phone.
Alternative messenger exist, I should've been more precise. At this point an alternative would require at least the same features than discord, to get people away from it. I don't see that happen.
It would grow. Just to have the ability would be nice. A lot of people also would start to write reviews to be the first etc.
We got to start somewhere, same as with the Fediverse. We could even combine it.
It's about a quick glance on a location and reading some reviews quickly. There is a workaround with open street maps integrating google reviews but it's again relying on google at this point.
Discord. I hate that premium costs so much and all the ads they put in place to sell useless junk features.
Google maps. So open street maps but with reviews like maps has. A few days ago people suggested apps, but they lack reviews. I disagree that they are useless.
I think is a bit strange that Steam is so adamant on that. Sure in total every game of an inherited account might be a lot, but most are old games they sell for 5 bucks or less. How many of these old games would've been bought again from the new owner? I have little time for old games or old media, so it would be like getting grandpa Joes old book collection. It's not worthless but the emotional value is probably higher than the real use. Steam gets 30% of every game sold, seams enough to cover account forwarding.
Don't post accounts or keys online. Bots are a million times faster in soaking this data up, it's guaranteed no human who could deserve it, will get it. Make a post, pick some one at random and direct message them. Still a chance for multi accounting but less than just posting it online.
I too considered upgrading but there were months and months of botched updates, so I restraint myself and later found out there's zero benefit for upgrading.
