Why are you mentioning Linux? I did not. Keeping this all with the context of using Windows, both Epic and GOG stores provide API access which proves they only want to compete but Steam demands tyrannical control and tell gamers want they are allowed to do while Steam maintains the right to erase a user's game library without a refund.

Steam does and has deleted ganes from people's library without giving refunds. People have developed a blind allegience to Steam either through ignorance or lower cognitive function, but Steam is between aburden and a plaque on PC gaming.

Did you read the court documents in the video? The simple fact that Epic allows API proves that they not tracking and datamining people's information.

I have never bought a game on Steam. I will never buy game on Steam. It was a court ruling that made Steam change their user agreement, not Steam trying to be nice.

I have never bought a single game on Steam for this exact reason. I will buy from any game store except Steam.

The service on Steam is nothing superior over others. For people that want privacy but can live with DRM, I like Heroic open source launcher for playing games on both Epic and GOG, but Heroic does have issues launching Fortnite.

Which shows NDP and United only want power, void of any principals. From watching interviews and listening to speeches, it sounds like BC Conservatives want to cut the burden of government out of people's life, stop with the busy body administrative state, and stop pushing conformity on its citizens to stop nagging the population so people are left alone to make their own choices in how they live their life.

Game developers should never use upscaling, develop everything at native 4K with 4K ultra textures, and for playing at lower resolutions the game can remove pixels for lower resolution. Similiar to how 4K recorded video looks better at 1080p than 1080p recorded video.

For framerate and GPU performance, we are now in the 4K capable GPU market and only getting better every 2 years. In 2026/2027 people will NOT require the top GPU for native 4K 120fps which means 4K GPUs are only going to get cheaper and cheaper, not for price but can start pairing a lower GPU with a 4K screen.

Upscaling is not available on older games, some of those are more popular in terms of favourites than brand new releases, and upscaling is inconsistent across games that have it.

The smoothest performance across a random 20 to 30 games will always be to only play at native resolution with no frame generation technology.

Someone else mentioned it. I have never played Bioshock, I think I've seen it used as a benchmark. I look for military style games and I wasn't sure if I should give Bioshock a try.

Thank you providing reasons for why it's your favourite game.

I bought the New Order/Old Blood combo on GOG.

Prey looks really nice. Don't you primarily play through the game with a sword, having a lot of required stealth kills?

Is Turbo Overkill an arena game in a single environment, as opposed to progressing through multiple levels, say, in like a military campaign?

I have New Order. I tried Doom reboot and lost interest in playing because of the fictional space creatures. You're the 3rd to mention Titanfall 2. I have it but played maybe an hour so I don't know it very well.

I don't like random creatures or space aliens, fantasy, Martians, I don't like those games. I prefer real world military style. What makes Half Life so good?

Someone else said Ttitanfall 2, to which I replied "I have it, I have not played it through, only played half an hour to an hour, but I will trust you and play it through soon to give it a proper try"

I will watch for Effect and Cause to see what you like about it so much.

I see people rave about it. I tried Half Life 2 for an hour and quit because I lost all interest since there wasn't much happening.
