Revelation34 08/08/18 6:53:10 PM #53:	adjl posted... We've been over this. If a publisher wanted to stop you from playing a copy of their game, owning a physical copy wouldn't protect you from that. It's easier with digital, yes, but in practice that'd just mean you'd be slapped with a lawsuit if you continued to play the game, rather than being able to revoke access directly. It is no less illegal to distribute copies of a physical game than it is a digital one. Digital's just easier to enforce. You still own the game in that case anyway especially when it comes to physical releases. A company wouldn't have a legal right to do that. Distributing physical copies of a game is different since that would be bootlegging. DPsx7 posted... I did. Steam. Haven't you been keeping up on the topic? Nah you clearly didn't use any malware. --- Gamertag: Kegfarms, BF code: 2033480226, Treasure Cruise code 318,374,355, Steam: Kegfarms <cite>Revelation34 posted [p:906520652] in Attn: DPsx...

Not Valve's fault you didn't bother to research what you were installing to see if you'd like it. DPsx7 posted... They can't touch me or my discs/carts. We've been over this. It's in the EULA; your usage rights may be revoked at any time. Will they do so arbitrarily? Of course not, because it'd be highly impractical (especially where you're so paranoid as to cloister yourself away like you do) and do more harm than good with the bad press it'd generate (also true of digital), but they are legally entitled to it. DPsx7 posted... I did because the Doom 3 PC was old and the following PC was built around the time of Quake 4, Fear, and Serious Sam 2. There wasn't anything wrong with the system. So you had the spare RAM and therefore nothing to complain about. DPsx7 posted... Great, then I'm telling you how it worked since you weren't there. And I'm telling you how it works since you aren't here. I'll accept that it may have been a problem for you, but that problem's been fixed. DPsx7 posted... If they didn't tell us what it was doing to our PC Can you name a single commercially-available program that tells you everything it does to your PC? DPsx7 posted... I'm not applying anything. You've defined malware (as you see it). By stating a definition, you are applying the label of "malware" to anything which fits that definition. Ergo, in your eyes, a number of OS's can qualify as malware. DPsx7 posted... It didn't. It did. Trust me, I've actually used it since 2006. --- This is my signature.

Think I hid the box knowing I'd never touch it again. The research was to ensure it would run. Answer me this - do all games list the malware/DRM included on the disc? I seem to recall some other nasty software that caught people off guard. I think fear of backlash is enough to say they won't. I know what I can and can't do with the game. The code isn't mine but that copy is. That's not the point. I didn't want software running in the background causing my game to hiccup. Well at least we're getting somewhere. This goes back to my previous question to you. I doubt software boxes explain everything, meaning I was blindsided by what Steam would eventually do. Ah, no. I described why Steam meets all the requirements of being malware. Malware can do much more. Nor am I applying it to anything else because the focus is Steam. You're not going to sidetrack this topic trying to rationalize the mistakes Valve made. I used it too, trust me that everything above is no lie. While we're at it, why does this bother you so much? Steam is trash, that's great. For someone who wonders why I talk about Steam so much you're dragging this out longer than it needs to.

Learn to read. Yeah those are the typical lines given in defense of digital. Thing is those are under my control to prevent. Digital gives other people power over what, where, and when I play. Sure it has. The DS and Wii services aren't working anymore. Servers for online games have shut down turning them into coasters. Maybe you don't play very much. Discs will work in a replacement console. Good luck swapping a HDD in a modern one. PT is a good example of what's possible. It may not happen soon, but digital is not future proof enough. I'm aware of what they've done. Give me some credit. Not even remotely. <cite>DPsx7 posted [p:906534424] in Attn: DPsx... [t:76879585]...</cite> <quote>Dude, give up. You're wrong in all ways.

You think there wouldn't be just as much backlash if companies started arbitrarily revoking digital games? DPsx7 posted... Ah, no. I described why Steam meets all the requirements of being malware. Malware can do much more. Nor am I applying it to anything else because the focus is Steam. You are asserting that Steam is malware because it meets all of the requirements you're listing. The logical extension of that is that anything else which meets the requirements you're listing is also malware. If something else which meets those requirements is not malware, then you can no longer conclude that Steam is malware based on those requirements. That's just how logic works. You can't choose when to apply or not apply logic. DPsx7 posted... I used it too, trust me that everything above is no lie. Not since the incident in question you haven't. I'm willing to believe that you had a game catastrophically glitch out on you, especially that long ago (historically, PC gaming hasn't been the most stable thing out there).

You are asserting that Steam is malware because it meets all of the requirements you're listing. The logical extension of that is that anything else which meets the requirements you're listing is also malware. If something else which meets those requirements is not malware, then you can no longer conclude that Steam is malware based on those requirements. That's just how logic works. You can't choose when to apply or not apply logic. Not since the incident in question you haven't. I'm willing to believe that you had a game catastrophically glitch out on you, especially that long ago (historically, PC gaming hasn't been the most stable thing out there). That's not the issue here. The issue is your refusal to accept that computer things change in over a decade, and that Steam is now a very stable, user-friendly distribution and DRM platform. All this paranoid nonsense about malware and infections is just ridiculous. Now you're being stupid too. Please educate yourself before trying to argue with me. There was.
