I hope you’re right. I’m future proofing anyway by preferring DRM-free stores when possible.

Sure that’s reasonable at the moment. And while it seems Gaben would never sell out, he is going to die at some point. What’s going to happen to steam / valve after that?

GOG enabled regional pricing several years ago.

Personally I enjoy the complicated character building of Grim Dawn way more than the item hunting. This also means I will play a host of characters and eventually complete item sets and have the resources for crafting after half-completed character number 86. For me the grinding is mostly a test on the efficiency of my build.

Maybe look into Warhammer: Chaosbane. It has a point system that superficialy looks similar to Grim Dawns devotions or Path of Exile, but in reality it’s super simple. And while you do collect items, they don’t matter as much as in other ARPGs. The flip side is that it’s kinda hard to fail because the game is so simple.

Maybe it’s just me but I think the Mumble UI is way better than the Discord UI

The point is that an email address that is not in use except once to create that epic account is worthless to whoever buys it.

Well if they can turn fakeaccount53643@yahoo.com into money they honestly deserve the 50 cent they’re getting for it.

Is JavaScript a serious language? /s

Joking aside: One of Brendan Eich’s books probably contains something resembling a style guide.

Since you specifically mentioned C# : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/fundamentals/coding-style/coding-conventions

I’d be surprised if there is a serious language that doesn’t come with at least some semi-official style guide. But usually they are not universally followed and everybody just does their own thing.
