  • indeed, gaming is becoming more of an “older” people hobby mostly because kids nowadays get bombarded with micro transactions and pay to win mechanics that don’t really engage them as a target audience.

    Once I attended a reto game convention and meet a kid who was like 14 or 15 who was really into retro games, mostly because those games didn’t nag them with live services and bullshit as such. It really shifted my perspective about modern AAA gaming.

  • Twice I’ve been blocked out of my account, the first time it was because I was accessing from too many different IP address (VPN). The second time.I didn’t even bother to contact support and was willing to loose my account.

    Also, I recall many years ago in the early days of the app there was an app update that would straight up not work on my phone and had to sideload an old apk in order to keep using it. And according to google I wasn’t the only one.

    Took me a few months of manually testing new updates until a newer version worked for me. Not to defend Facebook or Twitter, but a fuck up like that one would never make it past their QA teams.
