They were bought by IBM a few years back, but even aside from that they’re a corporation and they care about making money above all else.

It looks like Red Hat is doing its damnedest to consolidate as much power for themselves within the Linux ecosystem.

I don’t think the incessant Fedora shilling is unrelated.

It seems like there isn’t much criticism of the company or their tactics, and I’m curious if any of you think that should change.

You should get some experience using modern game engines so you can see firsthand how easy it is to develop cross-platform games.

Supporting multiple platforms is a job for the engine developers.

Are you talking from experience?

[–] propitiouspanda@lemmy.cafe 2 points 13 hours ago

I completely agree.

I do not reward or support incompetence when the party in question is demanding my money for their product.

Seriously. I'm getting into game development and it's eye-opening how many difficulties are really skill-issues among nincompoops.

Mad respect to the devs of the past. They're the real heroes and we have relatively fewer of them around these days.

This is a terrible trend and we should stop supporting it.

Compatibility layers should be for games that are already made and not receiving any updates.

Everything else should be encouraged to support Linux natively.

Stop lowering your standards to avoid conflict.

That's not the point.

Lawbreakers was made by Boss Key studios, headed by Cliff Blezsinski who was the guy behind Gears of War.

You may be thinking of Battleborn, which was made by Gearbox.

I think they're pretty terrible.

I've tried multiple times to get in to them and I've come to the conclusion they're just for a gamer with lower standards than me.

This is also based off of the games that I see borderlands fans like that I think suck ass.

Hear hear!

Borderlands is a neat concept, but it's ruined by an awful studio and reddit-tier 'humor.'

It was nice to see Battleborn fail because honestly that's what the studio deserves.

They didn't have to 'fuck' any election.

Consumer culture fucked the working class by conditioning them to spend money in order to be happy. Now that they can't spend at the levels of their parents because of the growing disparity in wealth, they're apathetic and turn to demagogues.

Neo-liberals did their part by making sure any candidates that represent the working class are shuffled into political janitor closets.

As always, blame the people who voted for Hillary in the 2016 primary for why we now have 2 trump presidencies.

We don't want to solve these problems.

I don't know, but it looks like my phone has something pretty close to stock.
