I see, interesting. I was wrong then.

Edit: So it seems they have non “smart” versions but not for everything.

Usually lite version of their products don’t connect to the to the internet.

Yup:

I mean, Premiere is known to be a buggy mess. I have no idea why companies still force people to use it when Resolve exists. Good luck to you sir.

Why does god not do the same in the US?

It’s not surprising, a large portion of South Africans online love fear mongering and are openly xenophobic.

Also, I’m starting to think that a large amount of online trolls that spend their days attacking feminist and queer pages on mainstream social media are god damn fkn white South Africans.

Many South Africans (especially in Johannesburg) are vile online and in person they’re narcissistic and shallow. Don’t be surprised when you find out that race isn’t a barrier to being a cunt.

So why should people listen to your arguments?

So what are they? How often do you buy 10 litres of paint? How often do you buy furniture? How does not having a car restrict you to one shop?

Most people chose to drive a car because their town/ city has poor urban planning and public transportis an after thought. Go to a city that isn’t built for cars and you’ll see the opposite is true.

It does on some games, have you not read my previous replies?

Okay you’re examples are bullshit.

You can’t carry stuff? Are you serious? Yes you can carry four bags of food on public transport, it’s not difficult.

Are you buying 10 litres of paint every day?

You absolutely do have options, I did not live in an appointment in a city and had a large variety of options.

Again, are you buying things from IKEA every day? Can you not hire a van for one day? It would be cheaper and more practical.

These just sound like excuses. You sound like the type of person to buy a truck just on the possibility that you might need to transport a fridge once in a blue moon.

Life with a car is the opposite of freedom when you are completely dependent on it to do anything.

Yeah because it lets me take care of things for the household. Go shop for food, get stuff for renovating house, go to work and home on my own…

Like an adult?

Look, I get that in your case it’s an upgrade. The city you live in sounds like it has piss poor urban design which makes it difficult to think of living without a car.

I used to walk everywhere and take the train and bus and I got things done, was able to explore and find new restaurants and coffee shops etc. But then work forced me to move an urban hellscape where you can’t do anything without a car and I fucking hate it. I don’t like needing to have an oversized mobility scooter just to get around.

You need a car to feel grown up?

Moving to a car centric city has been significant downgrade for me. I’d much rather walk or cycle than be stuck using a car.

I see, just didn’t get it then.

This comic is about as car brain as it gets

Empathy to who? People who don’t like difficult games but for some reason insist on ruining things for those who do?

That’s not what people are saying, but the entitled attitude here makes it seem as if games are a mandatory interaction.

If you are a game dev and you decide that part of the experience of your game is the difficulty, so be it. Art was never and isn’t something that pleases everyone. You can call them a dick but you don’t have to engage in what they produce.

That is such bullshit. There is such large variety of games out there that still give meaningful experiences to players that calling all of them “barely art” is just wrong.

A game isn’t a public service. There are many games where part of the experience is that everyone has to go through the same or similar difficulty and the learning curve involved in that. If that isn’t something that you can manage then you don’t have to play it.

If anything, demo versions should be more readily available so that you don’t end up buying something you can’t return.

I know it’s a quote, but there’s a big difference between inclusive public infrastructure and interacting with games.

Yeah, it should be based on playtime though there’s probably a reason why it isn’t. There are times were I’d have a game in my library that I only get to many months after purchase only to find out its not what I was expecting.

I don’t think you’re getting the point here. If you buy a game you can do whatever you want with it. Same goes with developers, it’s their creation and they can do whatever they want with it. It doesn’t have to please everyone.
