You can also ignore them on their developers page to blanket-ignore their games

Black and White. I miss good god games. Most these days seem like they are just casual, mobile style games.

Splinter Cell. Or a similar tactical stealth shooter. Except made by anyone other than Ubishit

I liked using KanBoard. Its simple and runs well inside a docker container.

Rio Tinto is moving to solar (and some wind) here in Australia for its aluminum refining and smelting operations. Would be good if the same could be done for steel too.

WoW, XBL and Eve are some examples

Subscriptions to online vs offline games is the major difference from now and back then.

I used to pay a subscription to play WoW and Eve because alot of the game runs on the game company’s hardware, which requires maintenance and upgrading periodically.

Single player games that have no reason to connect to the internet other than for updates should not be locked into having a continuous connection to authentication servers and there is no reason to pay a continuing subscription for the game, other than the company’s greed.

They should release decent DLC, expansions, etc if they want to keep milking the same title (or better yet, invest in some new IP instead of swapping franchises like trading cards)

I’ve got >500hours in Timberborn on Ubuntu. Runs flawlessly and never had an issue.
