@Goalkeeper A reminder that NeoGAF is still around, even with the mass exodus that led to the creaton of ResetERA thanks to Tyler Malka (aka Evilore).

i love it when right wing accounts follow me for some le based take i have because i just know at some point they're gonna have loli hentai on their feed because they didn't actually look at my profile first.

@sun are you enjoying the PHPocalypse

Won’t be doing any spoopy videogame top 10 lists. Instead I’ll showcase physical games of prior seasons. I don’t care if critics consider this a graphically inferior version of SOTN. Love the extra levels, characters & tunes. Wish we got a definitive version of this 🖤. #octoberween #halloween #spooktober #videogames #retrogaming

Poll, please boost for reach, I’m genuinely interested.

Do you use IRC?

Bloodborne is overrated, but I'm glad to see it brought to PC.

"New Video Game Law Proposed: 'If You Pay For It, You Own It'"

Ha, yea, I could half-get behind something like this, but the problem is you shouldn't be able to force the company to do shit, but you should be entitled to reverse engineer it, copy it, modify it, etc. When companies behave badly you should stop doing business with them. It's really that simple most of the time.

The problem really comes down to government interference in the free market as to why we have many of the problems we do. It is copyright, patents, and similar that most significantly undermine competition in the market place & hinder folks ability to seek out a competing solution from a better behaving actor.

Governments should never grant monopolies and should look for solutions to undo what monopolies have handed unfair first mover advantages that benefited from such temporary or permanent monopolies of the past. Think electricity, telephone, internet, copyrights, patents, etc.

It's near impossible to open and compete against a pizza place that has been in business for 20 years already. They've paid off loans to get started and anything you do they'll be able to out-compete you on [probably] at least as far as price is concerned. They won't have the loans to pay off so if you set one price they'll just drop theirs to just below what you can afford until you go out of business. This a common practice of bigger corporations. Once they've run out their smaller competitors they then raise prices.

We should not be enabling this kind of behavior. It's also the case we should not be rigging our financial systems to reward larger companies over smaller ones.

It's these sorts of things that lead to less competition & it's effectively bad for everyone except those at the top.
