  • Your argument hinges on the incredibly dishonest argument that games written for 16bit DOS, before the PSX existed, were designed for modern 64 bit windows.

    Of course a modern PC can play them without extra cost, in Gog’s case without extra hassle either. Needless to say you can’t play PSX games on your PS5, your best bet for playing them is a random PC. Even better than a PSX as 25-30 year old hardware can crap itself out.

    When games are no longer released for the PS5, a current PC will be able to play new PC games, PS5 era PC games and at least PS4 era PC games with no hassle. With atiny bit of hassle or support from vendors way further back than that.





  • The Ukrainians is not responsible for Greeks being forced off Crimea to Azov by the Russian empire yet Crimea is Ukraine.

    Also Ukrainians are the closest thing there is to a Russian. They are eastern Slavs. They were much better treated than other ethnicities in Russian majority states exactly because they are close with Russians.

    You can find Ukrainians in Lemmy calling Russians Muscovites, do you have a clue what that references?

    Go look up the history of Greeks in modern Ukraine, of Ukrainians and Russians. Search for drone in Greece in google.







  • We have physical media on PCs, we even still have full control of them and can copy and modify anything we want.

    Now you mean we should be buying some kind of disk which will actually offer us no more control and in fact was historically used for DRM.

    Adding physical distribution overhead will definitely not help publishers (especially small ones or indie Devs) turn a profit.

    Vinyl is horrible for consumers. CD was a format we eventually could use ourselves to copy and mix music to our preference.
