  What do you think happens when someone with a treatable condition that would normally lead to death is denied medication for that condition?

  They don’t magically get better.

  Under his leadership he had the highest (by far) denial of coverage rate of any healthcare company in the world.

  And was trying to push the number of denial to 90+%.

  That is millions of people.

  Do you think they all magically got better?

  The big question to me is, why doesn’t THAT bother you nearly as much? I don’t see your comments sharing any outrage in that direction.

  Lol, I’m not gonna contest you on the price point. But that’s an issue with every AAA+ game imho. Even I snagged it on sale.

  But that’s also not even close to what the review bombing was about.

  Forespokens hatred train was beyond-the-pale ridiculous. If every game was judged / brigaded as harshly as Forspoken was, the AAA game industry would collapse.

  And honestly, Forspoken was a really fun game if you focused on what you were doing 99% of the time, which was traversal and combat. The story, quest design and characters were lackluster, but it wasn’t nearly as horrible as people made it out to be.

  People robbed themselves.

  It’s not wrong, it’s just generally offensive since colloquially “it” refers to objects rather than a individual.

  And as it follows, “it” is used as a insulting term when people want to dehumanize something.
