Oh yes, that’s good. Didn’t even think about that. I’m so used to seeing -rf that I didn’t even register what I was looking at for a second.

Luckily it’s France, not Quebec. France is much more amenable to providing documentation in other languages.

You had 30 seconds? So much for a quick wit.

That requires telling a new joke, not just rehashing the same one with a materially insignificant difference.

Oh, that’s worse than just missing the joke. That’s just one-upping and mistaking it for humour.

Wooooosh

Pointing out that Sony (apparently) making Concord unable to be downloaded again is not at all like how Valve lets delisted games usually still be downloaded by people who owned those games is the opposite of conflation. Conflation is when you say Valve is just like Sony when it comes to delisted games in that they both don’t let you download the game files again even though that’s false for one of those companies.

Do you not realize what you said with these lines?

Everyone lost access to their files when Valve allowed Sony to pull Concord from Steam.

Or when Valve pulled Total War Arena, The Day Before, The Culling 2, etc.

Did you think you named the actual publishers for those games this whole time and didn’t realize you put it all at the feet of Valve? Did you not remember that you said Valve has the power to allow a publisher to delist their games or not?

If you know there’s a difference then why are you saying customers who bought those games no longer have access to the files? You should know that’s not true if you know how delisting works on Steam.

I don’t know if it’s Sony’s choice or not but I know your statement about how it was Valve who chose to delist those games was incorrect.

You can still download the client side files for those games after de-listing.

And it’s not Valve that chose to pull down those games. It would be quite the power play for Valve to be able to tell other companies their games are no longer able to be sold.

Sony is deleting purchased movies from people’s libraries. It’s the same as when Ubisoft deleted the Crew from people’s libraries, so they are no longer even able to download the client files after delisting.

Delisting and deleting are not the same thing.
