I understand why you said this but you did not need to act like you have some higher moral standard because of it. Some people want to play video games without having to even THINK about the possibility of a game asking you to tweak a config to get the optimal experience, especially if youre a linux gamer. There are no options for people who want a console without a walled garden. Your closest shot is the Steam Deck, but the steam deck is shot in the knee by every company who uses an anti-cheat.

Before you say they just shouldnt play those games, consider the fact that some people aren't willing to give up things they already have for Something new and unfamiliar they have to spent months to learn and years to master.

It's funny how y'all are getting all bent out of shape at my slightly abrasive tone, while white-knighting the "victims" who excuse their ignorance and vulnerability to advertising/propaganda (among other forms of exploitation) on the grounds of mere convenience.

But by all means, keep dog-piling on the guy who wants the problem to stop instead of those who want to perpetuate it.
