That's true, but those days are long behind us. Now, games are released in an unfinished state and require, at the very least, a day-one patch for any hope of a non-buggy experience. It's sad affairs everywhere in all aspects of the industry.

Can report that ALVR with a Quest 2 works great.

Unpopular opinion, but hype for GTA 6 died to me when they showed their disdain towards Linux users. They've always been shitty towards PC, but enough is enough.

I remember the physical media PC game days. At the end, the games had horrible copy protection/DRM. I remember not having an internet connection for a while and I went to buy a game that I could play. All the games on the shelf had a notice on the box that said "internet connection required". Single player games needed to be activated, and if you ran out of activations you either had to contact the company to reset it or you were shit outta luck. I far prefer the combination of Steam and GoG.

Publishers already tried this (EA, Ubisoft, etc) and it didn't really work. They came back to Steam.

Hopefully they add Linux support soon.

Apparently, Linux hosts do not show up when setting up the connection. Hopefully Linux support gets implemented ASAP.

I did take a look at them and bookmarked one of the news sites, thanks 👍

The only issue with that is their prices go up if their costs go up. Kind of like how grocery stores claim that theft causes prices to go up. It is their money, though it does feel bad paying them.

I stopped looking at Lemmy for a long time, up until yesterday, due to the content being really depressing. Reddit didn't hate society, capitalism, or really everything as much as the Lemmy users seem to. I might stop doomscrolling here again.
