Well I wasn’t planning on playing GTA 5 but now I guess it’ll have to be pirated GTA 5 only so I can play a pre-anticheat version. It sucks that GTA is a game where all the mod developers try hard to make their stuff not work on pirated versions. Guess I’ll be avoiding that entire toxic community as a whole. Cyberpunk a better game anyway.
BattleEye can’t stop scripting mod hacks in any other game I’ve ever played using it and that’s the number one kind of cheat used in GTA V. 🤦♂️
Breaking Linux support after-the-fact ought to be grounds for a full refund (no matter how much time or hours of play have passed). Valve ought to allow such refunds and forcibly debit Rockstar’s Steam publisher account, whether Rockstar likes it or not.
Rockstar doesn’t officially support Linux though… So it’s on valve that they certified it for steam deck. There’s no grounds for charging that back to r*
Who cares about Rockstar’s opinion of “grounds?” Valve should simply do it anyway, and kick Rockstar off Steam entirely if it bitches about it.
I disagree. I bought a game for all the features it had at the time of buying it. There is no avenue for a consumer to push back against publishers changing that
While if you bought it, it should be source included and you should be able to host your own servers/pick any patch to play on
We don’t have those consumer protections because software is a relatively new thing
Same thing happened for the whole Bioshock series. They rolled out the update just over 2 weeks after a big sale so it was beyond the standard refund policy too.
Bioshock? Why would their be battle eye in Bioshock? There’s a multi-player function in the series?
I wonder if online play will actually be tolerable now.
A few months ago, I would be very upset about this, but the game kinda got old a while ago.
