GOG Launches Preservation Program for Timeless Classics | Retro Gaming News 24/7
  • They're cutting support for windows because Microsoft is, it isn't valve's responsibility to uphold a depreciated operating system. GOG is doing this because they are explicitly operated as a platform for supporting these old games, Valve is a general game marketplace without any real stated obligation to support older games if the developers won't.

    Also this has very little to do with what you're talking about. It even states they are taking old games and supporting them for modern systems, not supporting old systems at all.

    Edited to seem a little less confrontational

  • The Garf Hand
  • One of the things I love about Berserk is that it touches on a lot of topics that the usual dark edgy bullshit does, stuff like sexual assault in particular, in a much better way. Usually it feels like when stories add in things like this It's more like you're supposed to get some kind of enjoyment from it, like it's some forbidden pleasure.

    In Berserk, scenes like the Eclipse are truly horrifying, I genuinely felt sick to my stomach when reading it, it is showing it as a look into absolute utter evil and Guts refusal to give into it. I think that's what really makes it stand out compared to similar stories.

  • There's lots to criticize Harris and Dems for. Nonetheless...
  • This is how I feel about it. Even if you don't think your vote will accomplish anything, do it anyway. Otherwise you're just doing nothing.

    Do what you can to push things toward the better rather than sit and wait for it.

  • World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store
  • They are capable of it, but I don't really see why they would. Making the tokens cost more gold would mean less people willing to buy them on the AH and therefore less people selling tokens. I think the prices have just exploded because of the mount releasing. As someone else mentioned on here, I believe Blizzard just sets a minimum price for tokens.

  • World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store
  • You can not sell gold to Blizzard

    Edit: I stand corrected, you can purchase tokens and turn them into game time, but I didn't know they could be turned into $15 battle net balance. This mount does, indeed, cost less gold than the original Brutosaur (or did before token prices skyrocketed)

  • World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store
  • Yeah it's always been a status symbol. Nowadays it isn't even that useful because they put auction houses in the expansion cities anyway, so it's basically just a status symbol for people who spend WAY too much time on the auction house. This mount isn't even half as P2W as people would have you believe.

  • World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store
  • They did not remove it, people still use them all the time and it's available on the "black market" (an NPC that sells normally unavailable things) every so often. The mount was just an enormous gold sink for people with a ton of money.

  • World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store
  • They probably meant 170k gold in-game

    Also what they haven't said is that the price is set by players of the game,. When someone buys a WoW token and exchanges it for gold, that's because a player has paid them with gold they earned for the token. These tokens can be then used to pay for your monthly subscription.
