TECC :archlinux:<p>How I Buy Games</p><p>I stick to a clear philosophy when it comes to <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/GamePurchases" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GamePurchases</span></a>, focused on ownership, platform fit, and how a <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/game" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>game</span></a> is best played.</p><p>1. <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/DRMFree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DRMFree</span></a> First<br>My top priority is owning my <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>games</span></a> without restrictions. If a game is available on <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/GOGcom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOGcom</span></a>, that's where I buy it. Full ownership, no <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/DRM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DRM</span></a>, no launcher drama – just the game.</p><p>2. Platform Depends on Genre & Controls<br>If a game isn’t on <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/GOG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOG</span></a>, I pick based on how the game is best played:</p><p><a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/StrategyGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StrategyGames</span></a> etc. go to <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Steam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Steam</span></a>, since these are best with mouse and keyboard. Steam is my least choice overall, but still valid for genres where a controller just doesn’t cut it.</p><p>Everything else that plays best with a controller goes to <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Nintendo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nintendo</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Switch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Switch</span></a> or <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Sony" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sony</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/PlayStation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PlayStation</span></a>, especially since both still offer physical copies.</p><p><a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Epic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Epic</span></a>? No</p>
