People are reading the headline and assuming they're talking about older single-purchase games, but the article is actually referring to mostly MTX-driven games that get continuous updates.

And the data further shows, in Newzoo's own words, that these 908 million "PC players are heavily skewed towards older, live service games."

Remember that even things like Rocket League are about a decade old at this point, and games like LoL, Dota 2 and CS:GO are even older

Except they haven't actually backed that up with a way for you to jump servers. If the central Bsky server goes down, it takes the network with it. Until they actually let other people host, it's just meaningless posturing. Without a way for people to leave their network you are as captive there as you are on Twitter

I feel like the opposite, while Opal was the straw that broke the camel's back here, there are a lot of less powerful decks that heavily depend on it (Affinity, Asmo Food, Lantern Control, Hardened Scales, Hammer Time) whereas Breach is really only necessary in Breach combo decks. It occasionally gets used in Prowess or Ruby Storm but more as a flex card. It's also just a busted card banned in several places anyways, it's not like it's a fair card taking the fall for something else.

I feel like it worthwhile to at least see if Opal can stay unbanned without Breach in the format, and if it continues to be a problem hit it on the next list

This deck isn't living past March 31. The question is, what's going, Breach or Opal?

It's literally worse than piracy, since the AI companies are also trying to sell shittier versions of the works they copy from

Like selling camrips except done by multi-billion dollar companies ripping off individuals and stores are trying to put them right next to the original DVDs in the store

So according to Republicans the FCC shouldn't have the power to regulate net neutrality but it should be able to force streaming companies to carry specific programming.

Time for some Satanists to start some public broadcasting?

Dragons get a new typal enchantment based on a popular Zombie one

I can see a Necroduality for Dragons, but given that this is Dragonstorm I feel like a Dragon version of Rooftop Storm is even more likely

It's ridiculous they were asking for $30m to do something that ActivityPub already does. Wasted money that could have gone anywhere else

I tried to fit it into a deck but couldn't get it to work the way I wanted it to. Glad it's found a home, it's a cool card

I think the shared deck has its advantages of reducing the amount of space to carry decks for two players and also guaranteeing that both players have a deck with an equal power level

Yeah it's really satisfying when all the combat clicks, especially when even random encounters can be deadly. I've reached the point where I'm not worried about beating a game and just gonna keep playing as long as I enjoy it.
