Afaik this a fairly standard software licensing model. Pretty much all paid videogames are like that, physical or not. Sony just started to act on it in the hopes of making even more moneyz

Nah, I'm standing by this conspiracy as well. Something is off about it - the timing, the fkn amateur "hacker" etc

Plus rockstar have drummed up drama in the past to promote their games

Do wired usb-c headphones not exist? Don't get me wrong, I hate that everyone has dropped the jack and buds can fuck right off, but they're just advertising those buds as an adjacent product, they're not locking anyone in.

Care to elaborate on the Terraria fanbase? I never got into the game, always liked starbound more, but I could not get from them anything besides condescension regarding any other 2d-survival-whatchamacall-this-genre games. It's terraria or nothing else.

I don't get it - what's the market for an overpriced ( even by today's standards ) non-upgradeable but "build it yourself" desktop pc? Is it because its a prebuilt server? Or just the fancy case?

I guess they made decent phones so that oppo had a foothold in western markets, but they got their asses handed to them by xiaomi. The moment xiaomi established themselves I swear oppo started phasing out oneplus. This has been a long time coming.
