From what I hear, that applies equally to coders.

Publishers would still have to distribute authentication keys directly, no? That would cause the same problem here.

I didn't say it was obvious, only that it was factual. There was no doubt what the term was referring to once you learn the context.

Isnt that part of making a game, not of developing a game?

Bought it. Found no easy mode for a dumbass like me. Refunded. Not Team Cherry's fault. Looked like a great game, but unfortunately not for me. I really wished they added some easy mode, but it's their decision.

"Easy mode" aka "game journalist mode"

Another win for GOG? DRM free and their servers didn't crash. Although it is sad to see that people don't buy enough from GOG for them to crash.. I guess people like their DRM.

Same price as steam for me so it does have regional pricing, but maybe not in every country

Isn't that part of being a jackass online, not using your brain?

Development is more than writing code. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development

I thought software development and developing meant different things

Technicallly, they only need 177(countries w/internet) 3(triangulation) × (≈531) superseeders to kickstart the main files, and deliver decryption keys between the 3 triangulators.

Wtf is the difference between making and developing a game???

do you play every game in easy mode? No judging you, just curious. I do not play every game in hardest difficulty, but I do play above normal difficulty

If the services weren't preparing for absurd traffic for this game, they were downright negligent.

Huh, Silksong is out now. Maybe it's time I played the first Hollow Knight?

Im old. I play easy. I just have little time with work, family, etc. To spend yet more time gaming. I enjoy the story and get to experience it quicker than I otherwise would.

Pros of GOG: ability to download an installer Cons of GOG: no features, very few games Pros of Steam: everything Cons of Steam: making backups of your games is marginally harder than on GOG I wonder why more people don't fall for the GOG meme. Truly a mystery.

I guess the same than between shooting and making a movie. But the term game development is confusing, as it includes more than actual development.

"Easy mode" aka "I have a full-time job and a family to take care of, I'd like to make some progress in this game with the small amount of free time I have". Not everyone has the time to sit down for a couple hours to grind out mechanics.
