I mostly get my games through steam, which allows you to set multiple library locations, and then asks which drive you want them installed on. Besides that, every game or program installer I've ever used has asked me which drive I want it installed onto, although sometimes you need to check the custom install box first
A program instalation window with a licence agreement with the text "Insert your licence agreement text here..." and an agree and disagree radial buttons.
Now I kinda want to write a full license, complete with all the legal jargon, that takes up 43 pages of space to say you can do whatever the fuck you want with this software
I think the company should also be required to clearly state the amount of time they'll keep supporting the game and will operate the servers for. If they decide to shut them down early, everybody should be given the choice to either receive a full refund or the non DRMd version of the game + the server software like you suggested.
In general I think all paid games should be required to clearly state the amount of time they'll keep providing feature updates for, as well as support for new hardware, major bug fixes, and minor bug fixes. Although games that aren't online and just reach EoL are still playable for quite some time, eventually there'll be some breaking operating system or hardware change that will force the use of a virtual machine, compatibility software, or other types of emulation to keep playing. That might not happen for 50 years, at which point you probably don't care, but still. I'd give more leniency to indie Devs and games made as passion projects, though.
Although obvious once you think about it, I don't think most people realise or even think of the fact they will eventually not be able to play the game they're buying. And these mega companies need to stop making games they dump 6 months after launch.
Are spaces used in place of commas in regular casual conversations, too? In Australia, I've only ever seen them used in really formal documents like financial reports, never really anywhere else
Don't forget to upvote good segments and downvote bad ones. Segments that are downvoted enough get hidden or removed. That's a pretty big part of how they prevent malicious people (possibly with outside instances) from trying to sabotage the network
I once saw 2 blokes getting on the tram with half a tv. It was a 50" or so tv with the back plastic thing missing. They were both shirtless and both seemed to be completely out of it on something. I sort of concluded they ripped a tv off the wall but didn't have a way to get it home, or to a pawn shop or wherever they were planning on taking it
I've always thought that perhaps all the stereotypes about the French being arseholes come from American tourists being entitled and disrespectful and the French just not taking any of their shit

You have to agree to proceed as well.
