One could argue that by moving from one DRM-restricted walled garden like PlayStation or Xbox to Steam is not a real solution since Steam is the same in that one does not truly own their purchases, you’re only buying a license to play the game.<br><br>Everyone trusts Valve now, but remember when everyone was up in arms about Xbox not allowing for the reselling of game discs? Remember Sony’s <a href="https://youtu.be/kWSIFh8ICaA" rel="nofollow">brutal video on how to share games on PS4 using discs</a>? Everyone celebrated and trusted Sony then, now 13 years later?<br><br>I don’t work for <a href="https://www.gog.com" rel="nofollow">GOG</a>, but I do think they are doing things right for gamers — selling games that are DRM-free and come with offline installers. This way when I buy a game, I own the game. They might not have the latest AAA titles, but games that were fun before are still fun today — and the benefit is that they’re cheaper and fully patched up.<br><br>Let’s not keep supporting businesses that don’t let us own what we buy digitally.<br><br><a href="https://social.gamefan.net/@gamewire/116897085641691239" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="social.gamefan.net/@gamewire/116897085641691239"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">social.gamefan.net/@gamewire/1</span><span class="invisible">16897085641691239</span></a><br><br>cc: <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@lisamelton" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>lisamelton</span></a></span><br><br><a href="/tags/gaming/" rel="tag">#gaming</a> <a href="/tags/videogames/" rel="tag">#videogames</a> <a href="/tags/playstation/" rel="tag">#playstation</a> <a href="/tags/xbox/" rel="tag">#xbox</a> <a href="/tags/steam/" rel="tag">#steam</a> <a href="/tags/gog/" rel="tag">#gog</a> <a href="/tags/ownership/" rel="tag">#ownership</a> <a href="/tags/drm/" rel="tag">#drm</a><br>

<p>Rated <a href="https://eggplant.place/search?r=1&q=https://bridge.neodb.net/catalog/video_game/igdbId-361855" rel="nofollow">LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight</a> 9/10</p><p>95% / 28hstory: 4.5⭐game design: 4⭐gameplay: 3.5⭐music &amp; sound design: 2.5⭐ui: 4.5⭐[no spoiler]crazy to think this game is its own story, while taking plot points from 6 movies and 4 video games, without even counting the easter eggs of about EVERY SINGLE DC MEDIAS THAT HAVE EVER EXISTED.what a good time to be a batman (or even a dc) fan and getting all the little references. like most LEGO medias, we can tell all this was made with love for the franchise.they even added a few memes only a few redditors would understand.the number of costumes and obscure reference is insane. I LOVE WHEN A GAME LETS ME COLLECT OUTFITS!!!!the jokes are even better as what you would expect from a LEGO game, even as an adult.the gameplay is fun, not too hard, maybe a little repetitive sometimes. i still managed to get it to almost 100%, completed the whole map and all the side quests without feeling like i was doing chores.i didn&#x27;t really care much about the fights, even tho i enjoyed the arkham feels, it wasn&#x27;t as good as the other games.the puzzles are nice tho. some of them are very easy, but i had to really think for others.a few glitches here and there that can be infuriating, but it didn&#x27;t ruin the game for me.the overall ux is not the best as well, i hope an update could fix some stuff.i reeeeally want LEGO to take this opportunity and build a bigger DC Universe of their own, outside of Gotham.</p>
