It's not like the artists got most of the revenue from CD sales either. Artists being scammed by record labels was so common it was almost a meme.

And yeah they agree to revenue-share because it's much better than the alternative of piracy and no money.

I think many of the people complaining don't remember what is used to be like when you would pay £10 per album.

But it's trivial to write a slightly different implementation of something.

I think one really has to consider what the effect on innovation will be - you don't want too many protections as that will stifle innovation as it prevents people from building upon the prior ideas, but equally you don't want no protection at all as that will discourage innovation as R&D takes money, so if you can't recoup the investment the money simply won't get invested into R&D and the innovation won't happen.

At least it's not a hostile takeover I guess.

They haven't had anything interesting to watch since Squid Game. This Black Mirror season had like one good episode.

But sales are slumping
And no one will say why
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?

Meanwhile the Americans drive around their massive trucks, live with constant central AC etc.

Nice try, FBI.

Techtonica looks cool, I just hope it's not like "we have Satisfactory at home..."

The Wandering Village looks cool too I just hope the controller controls are decent, which city builders aren't renowned for.

It looks like it has the automation stuff from Factorio/Infinifactory though.

[–] FantasticFox 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, although I wonder how good it will be with a controller. I've always played city builders on PC.

Not really. Miravet is a famous tourist castle place. You can't get there via public transport from Barcelona or even from Tarragona.

Same for Besalú.

Honestly, Germany is the only place I have been where I felt I could get everywhere by train.

Right, now ask them what they think about rap music...

And how many people play it via Game Pass and thus not on Steam? How many people on Xbox? This is a trash article.
