Wait, I'm out of the loop here. What is this G2A fight? I don't use that site because it's greymarket and often ends up not actually supporting the developers, but would still like to know what is happening.

Old news but since factorio doesnt go on sale they were able to confirm that the keys sold by g2a were stolen.

Okay. I already knew that much, but thank you. Yeah that is the reason I only use IsThereAnyDeal.com to find sales, instead of like G2A/Kinguin.

I only ever used g2a for some sharkcards back when i was dumb enough to buy them, but microtransactions are scummy anyway so i didn't really care if it wasn't supporting the game

This is what nintendo fans will say. Even if somehow rent is $6 due to some future catastrofic events.

Nukes have a wonderful deflationary effect on the economy

$6 only buys you a month of shelter. $60 buys you a lifetime of entertainment you can pass on to countless generations.

They will demand far more. Nintendo always gets far more than they are worth these days.

Fuck them.

Maybe to visually separate the money number from a number before it? Like a date on a list of transactions.

June 5, 2026 60$
vs
June 5, 2026 $60

Idk tho.
