You don’t own the games. You can’t trade them. If they get removed from the platform you are SOL. Also it affected physical games as well. Why did I have to install Steam (that was green steam btw) to play Empire Total War?
I’ll stick to torrenting, besides a game is like 10% of my salary. Nope.
Why pay for stuff if I can have it for free? Steam was a terrible thing for gaming.
boy do I wish I existed in a universe where this movie had been made.
I have the exact opposite opinion lol
I was about to post this. Amazing how things change.
Piracy is the only way. I never buy anything I can pirate out of principle.
In the case of Spock I am hopeful we will see him transform into the man he is in TOS. My fear is that they will make the reason for this to be some sort of traumatic event that happens to him while I would prefer a more slow transformation.
Nevertheless, I still remain optimistic about this series’ future.
Also it’s unfair to compare it to the migrant story. Most Americans and Europeans are very hateful towards people from MENA so they are either indifferent or supportive of such “accidents”.
A mediocre episode whose saving grace was the message. I get what they were going for and I agree with it, as an episode though… meh. It would have been nice to see the Federation fight back a little bit, just for drama purposes. The vibe I got was that even the prosecution was not 100% on board with the law but since it was a law they had to uphold it; imo it would have been more interesting to have a more passionate prosecution. Measure of a Man had Riker, Drumhead had Satie, both good opponents for the heroes. Who was the antagonist here? The bald Vulcan guy who spoke for 2 minutes?
Also the flashback made me feel like the director thinks I’m some sort of idiot who can’t remember what happened a few minutes ago. What was the point of that?
I also feel like the episode squandered the opportunity to explore the theme of genetic engineering itself. Why is it so dangerous anyway? Would’ve been nice to hear that side of the argument.
As a sidenote, I don’t like how bigoted the Federation appears to be; this whole ban on augments never sat right with me, not in DS9 and not now.
If I buy a game on Steam can I sell it to you? I remember when you could just buy a game and install it, now I need another program? Why?
