    Sorry pal, we thought having you change to paper straws, showering once a week, eating lab-made beef, selling your car and walking 40 minutes to work each way instead, spending two hours a week separating recycling by plastic number, and keeping your thermostat set at 60 degrees was going to save the planet. Turns out we need to also take away one of the small things that brings you joy in this miserable existence by eliminating video games.

    Fuck off. There are actual offenders in this world and it’s not individuals and video game companies.

      If you read the article, it was criticising the amount of travel required in the video games industry for indies to get recognised by publishers. They propose that publishers should have “local scouts” to find new projects to invest in. No-one’s trying to take your games away

        I read the article. Their travel is still an infinitesimally small blip in the cost against climate change compared to the real offenders. Why are you defending the big video game companies and large corporations by attacking small business?
