Yes, that's what I was referring to; I didn't mean you personally voting with your wallet, but in the broader sense. In my opinion there's little chance of having success with this method in this field.

I'm not saying you're wrong in basing your opinion on this, but I think the sample size is very small and not necessarily indicative of future results. I'm not saying the chances are sky-high either, but I think this is the best way forward, especially right now with the campaign having received a second wind.

If there are alternative roads to the same goal, I wouldn't be against supporting those either. I believe this is the best we have right now, that's why I've put it before friends, family etc. If you have a better idea, you should definitely do the same, but downplaying the potential of this campaign helps nobody but those in the games industry.

The fact that it isn't just a petition, and if successful will put the issue before EU lawmakers. I'm presenting the alternative as doing nothing because you talked about voting with your wallet, and that is essentially doing nothing.

The reason I see this as having a higher chance of success than a legal case is the monetary limitation inherent to the latter. As far as I know there isn't a big track record of successful ECI's, so I would assume you're basing your opinions on regular petitions. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Entirely discounting the fact that the EU has a track record of consumer friendly regulation. I agree, instead of doing what has the highest chance of success, let's do nothing that could have an impact instead.

If you're specifically talking about The Crew, you're missing the point. If you're being flippant, and mean online games in general, God forbid people take an interest in the health of their hobbies.

When I got banned from online play on the Switch for using homebrew I stopped paying them for games on the platform. A lot of people are former pirates, and they'll only accept so much before they decide the grass was greener.

Jeg synes det er meget naturligt. Hvis de var store fans af styret, så sad de nok i Iran.

I don't care about The Expanse, but I do care about Owlcat. I'll have to keep an eye on this one.

A trailer having a sad girl cover of a song never inspires confidence in me.

Here's why I still use Plex: for me Jellyfin hasn't been easy to work the way I want it to. I mostly access my media on an Nvidia Shield, and the Jellyfin Android TV app just refuses to play certain videos; I can play them if I use VLC as an external player, but not within the app itself. The more pressing issue is that Jellyfin just refuses to play 5.1 audio, and downmixes everything to stereo. I have other issues, but these are the ones that prevent me from using it.

For me Plex just works.

Have they released any open-world RPG's besides The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk? Witcher 1 and 2 weren't, Thronebreaker wasn't.

Definitely, but as a counterpoint it's also much more sensible ergonomically. The Switch makes my hands hurt, the Steam Deck doesn't.

I don't care about Ciri being the main character, I like her, but I read the books and I do care about them feeling the need to make the character a witcher when this isn't the case in the books; she couldn't be a witcher nor does she need to.

It's not like I'm writing the game off, but it's a significant departure from the books, which makes me cautious, and I feel like challenging people to "read the books," is a bit disingenuous here.
