Discord defends itself against efforts to stop piracy on its platform by saying no to more invasive data collection. Even though Discord isn’t exactly known for privacy, this is a great move for its users. What are your thoughts?

    I’ve never played a Nexus game, and I’m definitely not going to start now. People who are pirating a game aren’t usually doing it bcz they hate the company, or have a vendetta of any kind. It’s usually a money issue. People are more than happy to pay for games when they have money, and you’re not a shit company.

      No, it’s a convenience/service issue. Last time i’ve seen a third-party launcher was Mirrors Edge on Steam proton, and that thing failed to run since it wanted to open more than my security limit of 50k files, which no game hit before.
