    Yeah i am done with “its just a launcher bro, lets game”

    There so many good games with out that trash… Why?

    For me the last straw was not being able to play a game on a plane because no internet connection. God forbid i enjoy something i paid for without checking in with server.

    FAFO, grifters. No money for parasites.

        I open Blops 6, Blops 6 opens

        Technically it’s the CoD HQ thing, but it loads Blops 6 content first and will let me play MP and Zombies without anything else needed

        I had to log in to battlenet when I first got cod, but it otherwise doesn’t appear when playing

        So I can see 2 if you count battlenet, what’s the third?

          Linking YouTube videos on my phone now makes it difficult to share without stupid tracking links, but check out Videogamedunkey’s recent Black Ops 6 video. It’s asinine.

            I respect you appreciating this!

            Can you even get a non tracking spytube or reddit link amymore?

              Seriously! I used to be able to copy and paste easily and remove everything after the ?, but now they’ve changed it so it’s nested in the URL. Also, they broke ad blocking in Firefox Focus, so I have to copy and paste the videos into Safari with Vinegar and Baking Soda for a halfway decent watch experience. Aaaaaaaa

                Yeah i had suspicion that reddit using rando letter/number variables for specific link were died to person generating link.

                I saw youtube and twatter do the same…

                Disgusting

                  Oh yah. They’re all doing it. Amazon too. Apparently with TikTok, you can’t even remove the tracking info, absolutely disgusting! I don’t touch TikTok, so I can’t confirm.

                  If you see a ?, you can usually delete that and everything after it to get rid of the spy stuff.
