That's partially to blame for all 196 communities having this weird "if you know you know" approach to writing their mission statement and rules. I've seen numerous people ask wth is 196 because of how vague the communities they saw were.
But, particularly about the social politics, here's also the thing I think. Trans rights are human rights. Communities fall under two categories: Welcoming to trans people, versus inherently evil. So I don't think that a community is pro-trans should ever have to be stated. It should be assume, and whoever has a problem with it should go fuck off from society, Satan has a place for them.
I only use revanced because I consider picture in picture and playback with screen off a basic feature, and removing it to monetize inherently immoral.
The fact it comes with everything else is bonuses. I'd pay for those bonuses, but I won't if they try to cheat me beforehand.
We also cancelled our (way back, as soon as news of this came out) and have been on the whatever-arr system off of a friend's server since.
But it really doesn't matter. Too many people doing the opposite. I'd have at least expected other services like HBO to see a surge, but instead, no, people are just loyal or some shit.
Whenever you try to get an answer to something like "What movie was the Be Like Water line from" and you can NOT find anything other than a bunch of articles with tons of paragraphs wasting your time - that's the SEO spam tactics. Those articles chose words that made themselves easier to be indexed by Google, but don't actually want to answer that question.
And yes. I literally looked this up this week.
I still don't fucking know if it came from Enter the Dragon or some other short series. I just gave up. Google has enshitified news articles on the internet and has to seriously consider retraining their algorithm to negatively impact shit like that.
Even at the peak of my Overwatch playing spree, I always found Overwatch boring to... Watch. Too much going on, and if the casters were focusing on one person it was dull.
It's like, when you watch a MOBA, there's an ebb and flow to calm periods and to the fights and things are happening mostly in one screen and people who are fighting are right on top of each other. In Overwatch, it's disjointed bodies shooting at each other and blocking with shields and turning to shoot other disjointed bodies with a single flick of the mouse because shields are there. And it's non-stop. Someone is ALWAYS in a clash, and is ALWAYS doing it at whole-room scale. When people had ultimates to break a choke, it suddenly became better, but the whole in-between was just nothing. Noise. And even then, ultimates like Lucio's or Moira's later on could easily cause the big issue of "The blob". Like a cartoon fight with smoke, where details don't matter, someone sometimes can be seen choking someone else or biting their own leg, and in the end someone comes out victorious and who knows or cares why. I've only ever seen one game try and do worse, and it's Splatoon. And by try, I don't actually mean they tried much at all. But OW did.
And it wasn't a shooter problem. Counter-Strike has such low TTK that when a clash happens, you can generally get the camera focused on those people and lose nothing of importance elsewhere. All the nitty gritty of a single round can be understood in a single, real-time watch. I couldn't with overwatch because there were just that many people always in the heat and the important play could happen ANYWHERE.
If I had enough money that I can just go "fuck you", that's what I'd do. I'd obviously help my family financially, but probably not as a lump sum except to help them buy property to make houses on. But beyond that, I would basically be away and uncontactable. No one would know where I am and what I'm up to except maybe a couple times a year.
The bigger question is actually what type of charity I'd end up doing. I have some distrust for charities, so I'd want to take a more direct approach, so in all likelihood, I'd be helping a number of small creators I believed in to see if they could get a chance at establishing themselves better.
People were very defensive of 5vs5. But if you check /r/Overwatch right now (I did because I was looking for the news about teams receiving a 6million withdrawal payment), there's a thread full to the brim of people who hate 5vs5 and want 6vs6 back.
So basically, how people feel about X depends on which way Y is spinning in the news, uh? Oh well, me, I always hated and will hate the change, so, good.
