There usually aren't many complaints of something being woke if the product is actually good. I think the main takeaway is that nobody wants to be lectured, and told they are wrong for having a different opinion, and amateurish writing can easily come across as preachy or being a self-insert.

Sid Meier's Pirates! There are so few actually good pirate games.

I don't see this as refuting the previous point because those who don't know nor care about Denuvo probably wouldn't be pirating the game regardless. Pirates and entrenched enthusiasts are the ones in the know, so the real question is how many pirates actually purchase games they otherwise wouldn't versus enthusiasts who refrain because of its inclusion.

True, but even through Steam, you're still dealing with Ubi's launcher and Denuvo, so it's just adding another layer on top.

I wanted to play this, but not enough to interact with their launcher and Denuvo.

They nailed the flavor on these cards.

Might be hit or miss. On Kubuntu it wigged out on me often enough that I needed to make a shortcut to restart Plasma, but so far it's been stable on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.

Kubuntu crapped out on me after updating, so I tried a few other distros. Bazzite refused to install, but OpenSUSE Tumbleweed has made a really good first impression.

I agree, I would never subscribe to such a specific community, and the decentralization, to my eye, leads to less user engagement; if one of these link posts doesn't have comments, I'm less inclined to even click on it in the first place.

You should not be getting promotional emails if you opt out, so something is wrong with your account/settings specifically. Contact them or filter your emails.

I tried this a while back, and it couldn't correctly identify anything. Presumably this will improve once they get IGDB implementation done.

Hell yeah. I went with Kubuntu because I figured it would be easy for a beginner to troubleshoot eventual issues, given the amount of asked-and-answered Ubuntu queries online.
