  • They think it literally does not matter, and sales kinda reinforce this. The game was an enormous hit on release, but I think it gradually eats away at the faith of the customers as their experience falls to shit in the endgame where the rushed development is glaringly obvious. That's gotta add up and will eventually have an impact cause they sure as shit aren't learning the right lessons. Always remember the best outcome for the top deciders is the quickest biggest buck, and they will throw ANYTHING under the bus that challenges that. Especially thoughtful and rich game design which takes time and love to produce right.

  • I do agree, but indirectly, cause social media isn't inherently bad; It has been manipulated and exploited by oligarchs into weapons for information scraping and data theft. Zuck... Musk... Don't let them slink away into the shadow and blame the tech. There was a time when social media was mostly enriching and had a potential for community building, and they took that from us to profit massively. The internet is dying, and it's those psychotic freaks that have done it.

  • These fucking whale-scale welfare queens must be nationalized. They think this threat of 'taking our ball and going home' is going to scare people, and it probably will convince the officials already open to lobbying; but let's be very clear, they cannot just take their business and leave. Their infrastructure is here, their labour is here, and their market is here. If they really wanna sabre rattle, stop fucking around and say "okay then, leave, and pay the newly instituted 75% gross wealth and asset tax while you abandon Canadians who MADE you what you are today. And don't fucking come back". CEOs think they are indestructible, but we need only look to the past to see the truth, we just need principled and willful representatives who won't sell us out for chips. That's a whole other problem.

  • Tax the rich to pay for social service expansion like we always did successfully, resulting in everything good we have, until we decided not to because rich people are cool and will give you money if you help them get richer. everything else you said is hollow words and clumsily laid bait traps. Bye.

  • Everything preceeding the word 'but' is bullshit, every time. Let's be real, you're all for mass deportation of visible minorities, you don't care if they were born in this country or how much their family has contributed to its growth. You won't acknowledge that every one of us who isn't a born indigenous Canadian, had to migrate here and be given a chance to improve the country, which we did, every time. Now you want to pull up that ladder and assert that because they're not the same colour or culture as you are they should suffer and probably die actually. Some believe you should be deported for not being of Canadian spirit, and so will the regime you're dreaming about after they shove all the Canadians YOU don't like out. Time will come that you won't be loyal or Canadian enough for them, and you'll be sent to a camp or deported to CECOT, and be asking yourself 'how could this happen to me?', and you'll know... This is what I asked for.

    If you are self-aware and you're actually telling on yourself saying "yes, I want what they have, which is our own military terrorizing Canadians", then sincerely, get fucked, you don't belong here.

  • this is 50% factual in that coop is 100% the reason for the game franchise existing and succeeding. BL2 is pretty much the peak of the series too IMO, this is such a weird and dumb move by Gearbox, just trying to profit off useful hype for BL4, reminding people what it might be like in a timely manner is profit enough on release, but they wanna act like we don't know what they're doing. I can't tell if this is to kneecap the fanbase's expectation of good multiplayer ahead of time, or what. Let's just say I'm skeptical they're giving away a janky version of BL2 because they're extremely confident their new release will do well, pretty revealing to me.

  • Hey fellow 41 year old dude, I also cry at this stuff. It seems especially pronounced when rewatching nostalgic productions with well written characters and conflict (I will not apologize for crying all the time during Avatar the last Airbender, as an adult man). No, I do not know what this means in regard to healthy emotional processing, it just is what it is. Mind you I also get unjustifiably angry or emotional in other contexts when I feel connected to the fate of a character and they experience injustice. So this might be a general marker for some level of empathy or maybe just emotional mimicry. Thanks for posting, I think this is something people should be okay talking about more.

    Edit: I wanted to add this also occurs in other mediums, like video games. Cyberpunk 2077 was like a revolution in awareness for me, but largely because I experience DID to a degree in my life, and it really flipped the table of my understanding of myself seeing what I experience through the eyes of others.

  • And the operation turned out to be a complete success! Looks like a good strategy going forward.

    Not one person on this entire site can tell me anyone should trust tRump in ANY situation, let alone one where he has leverage over you and interest in... your stuff. Expect more of this by the way; turns out when you're a constant asshole to everyone, nobody wants to be around you or rely on you, let alone offer to extend help in your direction. I'm honestly baffled what people fucking expected, only brainrotted simps believe in the real adult world, on the global stage, you can twist everyone's arms to get your way without consequence forever. And only tRump can't see this cause that's been his ENTIRE life: No consequences ever for being the absolute worst person regarding character and conduct.

  • Man I love to see that abusive Owl grovel. I also did this, good on you OP, may they see a consequence for threatening something good for the sake of greed. Eventually nothing is enough for the managers and they burn the whole thing down because of their personal addiction. This harms lives. We need to jail CEOs abusing power this way, that's the actual remedy.

  • My point is the question is terrible, and one might as well answer however they like. It's a basic logic test dressed up in fractions, the only answer is one pizza is bigger, but that's apparently wrong, so you HAVE to be creative in describing how to solve the logical problem. Does this help you?

  • it's fairly clear there are two pizzas, but as to 'how' someone eats more than someone else... this is not really a simple math question, there are too many unknown variables. Maybe one has Bulemia, maybe one of them is 6'9" and has a much bigger appetite. Maybe one of the people has a congenital deformity resulting in two mouths... This question is not a math question, it's an exercise in creativity.

  • The fact that they are asking for another chance means they internally acknowledge they fucked up with their unprovoked trade war and assault on our sovereignty. The fact that they won't just say that and apologise means they refuse to learn, so every single interaction with them should result in "Your guy's still that orange dude, huh? Okay come back when you change". They KNOW he's fucking himself and their whole country over, but they expect us to just allow the betrayal.

    tl:dr Get fucked US reps, certainly untill you're going to meaningfully stop attacking us.

    Edit - phrasing
