    I paid full price for both Factorio and Skyrim because they are full games that I get to own. No micro transactions, and modding is almost encouraged through Steam. I will never buy another microtransaction game. I will never buy another “subscription based” platform like Xbox. I’m so fucking over not owning the thing I bought

      I hate to break it to you but you don’t really “own” the games on steam either. You have a license agreement with valve which they can revoke at any time, and you lose access to the games you paid for.

        I have them all downloaded. 25 years of old hard drives and nerdy piracy have me well stocked for the apocalypse
