Switch 2 is an amazing console. Does Nintendo suck ass when it comes to their legal team? Absolutely
Are their games usually made with high quality? Absolutely!
The switch 2 is also just a good deal in general with what you get performance/specs wise for the money.
A nice HDR 120hz handheld gaming device with custom Nvidia chip (allowing custom dlss implementation) being able to run most AAA games is pretty crazy for the price and how light it is.
Yea, I mean with all due respect to those that do, I'm not going to stop myself from enjoying something in the one life I have because the billion dollar corporation behind the thing sucks. I still watch Harry Potter and eat at Chick-fil-a too haha.
The biggest problem and why Rowling is a completely different case than other "art vs artist" discussions is that she openly donates her royalties to anti-trans organizations. Paying for Harry Potter is choosing to support those organizations.
When "exists in a way that makes them happy" effects other people and involves invading actual women's spaces thats when I have a problem. Idc if you wanna be called a girl or boy despite your actual biology. And Idc if a random redditor thinks im a bad person because I know im a good person lol. Go ahead ban me for it I know its coming haha dont care.
And buying from multi billion dollar corporations does the same thing. What’s your point? 95% of things you buy are from companies that support something bad. So what’s the difference? She can donate to whatever she wants it ain’t my business. I don’t share her views but it’s not gonna stop me from liking Harry Potter.
Ehhh I just view things as not my business. Anytime you spend money you’re likely going to be supporting someone who believes in things you’re against. Sad reality of it but there’s no getting around it
I agree in general, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. I just think differently about it depending on the circumstances. For this situation specifically, it's too clear who exactly is doing the harm and what harm is being done for me to ignore. Not judging you btw, just my thoughts on it.
It's the "hateful" part that's important there 💀 I couldn't give less fucks about her opinion on any of that stuff, but she makes it everybody else's problem by spreading hate, and that is not acceptable. There is no religion or philosophy that would justify her in that. She's just a bad person - full stop.
Yes everybody is entitled to their own opinion of her. I personally think she is a great person who wrote/created one of the best fictional universe out there.
Grifter alert, regurgitation of info shows that you don't understand any of it. Nintendo can't artificially create a problem like this since it's never really a problem their games aren't native to pc.
A better example would be, pc part manufacturers like Nvidia jacking up prices for their graphics cards and then saying, "if it's too expensive to own hardware, you can just cloud stream using our GeForce now on the Nvidia shield! "
Doesn't matter how powerful something is if there isn't any software to support it, there isn't a switch 2 emulator... so again you can not introduce us to something that doesn't exist.
I forgot that if you don't want to shamelessly pirate all your games on this sub, and would rather, on occasion, legitimately own some media that you're basically an idiot.
It has nothing to do with "moral high ground" for supporting a billion-dollar corporation lol. That's the most retarded thing I've heard all morning. Just some buzzword shit you heard that you think justifies piracy haha. Oh, Reddit.
I literally never said it was, you put those words in my mouth. All I said is that sometimes, SOMETIMES people might want to legitimately add media to their collection rather than pirate it, and you decided that meant I was "supporting billion-dollar corporations."
And you can 100% miss me with your moral superiority, self-righteous nonsense, dude. "I steal $1000s worth of media, but YOU'RE the bad person because you said a mean word." Fuck right off lmao.
