They claimed it was feature complete in 2023. And now they claim it is two years away from release. You really think polish and optimization takes three years? Of course, they've claimed it is just two years away every year since 2016.
They are lying to you.
I remember being laughed at when I admitted I still buy CDs, DVDs, or BluRays a few years ago.
Going that way is a great way to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Messing with their equipment is going not going to end well.
Ad block is NOT piracy. And use Ublock Origin.
Way back in the day, my best friend had a family friend that owned a computer software store. He rented games and gave us copies of the latest and greatest copy programs with a wink-wink and a nudge-nudge.
Remember, no business is required to tell the truth. Had a pipeline go through my backyard and you would not believe the lies that company told. Glad I lawyered up instead of believing the lies.
Only if you sold it. Back when cassette tapes first came out, the ~~mystic~~ music industry sued, and the Supreme Court ruled it fair use. So VHS tapes were under the same umbrella. We wouldn't get that same ruling now.
Holy hell, that was one hell of an autocorrect on mobile.
It the same mechanism. They can do it, they just don't want to.
They can. I buy and gift games to my son all the time.
That info can go stale quickly as content licensing changes. I've ran into that plenty.
There are still plenty of good deals in streaming if you have shifted to on-demand. If you want live TV or sports, they're out to gouge the fuck out of you. Luckily my Wife came around to on-demand only and an antenna. Of course, they're trying hard to take away the antenna option from everyone with ATSC 3.0.
I've played the game since 2015 when all we could do was walk around a hanger. When it comes to where SQ42 is at, we are being lied to about where it is. Them saying at Citcon that SQ42 is just 2 more years away is a dead giveaway that they are absolutely no where near a release, and the 2026 year is pure fiction. Like I said, they've been saying 2 years away since 2016.
