The satire article jokes, but you've got stuff like Dreams for the PS4 or Roblox where they exist solely due to user created content - yet Roblox bleeds creators dry before their games can even get algorithmic success, and Dreams has no way for you to get paid on it... At all...

This is uh… not entirely satire.

So, like when a multiplayer only game dies... it becomes kinda worthless to own. And you and other playing it, is what gave it value?

... I'm crazy if I think this kind of made sense?

At the beginning of the article, I thought that this was ridiculous, but by the end I found myself agreeing with you. Excellent article.

People always say "seize the means of production" but no one ever says "WE are the means of production"

I thought you were supposed to post jokes, not facts.

i'm not high enough for this kind of philosophical breakthrough

wait this is unironically true tho for whenever games do open betas and playtesting
