Quoting: Mountain Man

Doesn't seem like there's any chance of transferring to Steam if you purchased on Battle.net though, annoyingly.

Well, that sucks.

Yeah it really annoys me, as they can generate keys free, and just put them into accounts of people on Battle.net who purchased it. Any developer can do it, that they don't is just really annoying.

Quoting: EhvisI did notice the release. Then also noticed that they didn't bother to add key rebinding since the demo, so I skipped it.

No key rebinds in a PC game release...in 2023? Wat.

Yeah it's annoying. It happens to so many games. We've seen it before with music licenses, rather than remove or replace music, some big publishers just delist the game *sigh*.

Quoting: GuestEveryone here talking about region locks being evil, but no one addressing the elephant in the ROOM of Region locks... in some countries... we cannot buy a Steam deck :sad: we'd had to pay double or triple price to scalpers.

That’s an entirely different issue and nothing to do with region locks. Physical distribution comes with a great many hurdles. I do wish Valve would expand it but they will have their reasons why they haven’t.

Quoting: CatKiller

To sum up Valve tried blocking people buying games in different EU regions to get them cheaper, which is a breach of EU rules.

To be clear, it wasn't an action by Valve as such, and it wasn't sales on Steam. The publishers had their region restrictions on sales (which aren't allowed within the EU) and gave out Steam keys (for which Valve didn't get money); the publishers used Steam's region locks to prevent activation of those EU keys elsewhere within the EU, and Valve let them. That's why Valve got fined, but that's also why the fine is quite small. Valve subsequently fixed their tools so that publishers can't prevent activation within the EU of something sold within the EU, so it's just that historical breach.

Poor wording on my part, have clarified.

Quoting: PenglingIt happened back in February 2021 - there's an article that gave a good rundown about it and the fallout here.

I never really got the fuss over it personally. It's just a repo and as a distro they're free to do whatever they want. People could just remove it or use a different distro. Unless people suddenly think having a repo harms their PC in some way, it felt massively overblown to me.

How about we stop commenting on their looks, it's just weird. I've already had to remove one comment that went way beyond what is acceptable here. Time for some people to grow up.

I actually found with 2.0 that even though I had the old UI, all the flickering and weirdness on it was gone.
