  I work at a call center for insurance stuff and regularly have people start the call with ‘REPRESENTATIVE’ or ‘SPEAK TO A HUMAN’ because they think I’m still a part of the IVR system. One thing to keep in mind with any call center, is that no matter how specific you feel like your problem is, that rep has said that exact same line thousands of times, probably a few times that same day. For a lot of issues, it’s the same thing, just swap some names and numbers. And when you say the same thing over and over, you get really good at communicating the exact information that someone needs with as few of the little imperfections that’s make a conversation sound ‘human’ as possible.

  I love roguelikes, probably one of my favorite genres, so much so that I started playing rogue for a while to see what the OG was like.

  And by sales numbers, 100% Pyre would be their worst game, but I’m far past judging a games content by its sales at this point.

  And it’s easy to see why Hades is loved by so many, it’s a great game! Just definitely my least favorite of all of Supergiant’s stuff.

  I have the exact same take, and the exact same experience with my friend group. I love supergiant games. Anything they touch is solid gold imo. I’ve always said that Hades is an amazing game, it’s just supergiant’s worst game.

  Personally, I think for me, it comes down to the setting. Bastion, Transistor and Pyre all had amazing, unique settings that made me as a player want to learn and explore everything I could. And again, Hades does an amazing job of painting the setting and fleshing out the characters, but it’s kinda just Greek mythology, which has been done before and I personally find it less interesting.

  To restate, Hades is an amazing game, just imo it’s supergiants worst game.

  I think the ‘problem’ the meme is referencing is supporting centralized social media run by corporations. I think the ‘problem’ you are talking about is more along the lines of tech addiction. Something can fix one problem without fixing every problem.

  I mean, a lot of roleplayers don’t… It’s definitely pathetic, but like of all the reasons it is, not responding in first person is a weird one to single out XD

  Just my two cents of course

  I like your comment and I want to posit this.

  If you want to swear then swear. Cool, I agree with this as it’s following a simple ‘Do what you want’ kinda thing.

  If you don’t want to swear, don’t swear. Again sweet, do what you want.

  But what if I want to swear, but I want to censor the swear word, even superficially (replace a vowel with something else, leaving the swear entirely readable where everyone can easily tell what swear is being used)? This is where I’m seeing a ton of people suddenly not as okay with people doing what they want, and that’s what I was trying to get at with this comment chain. Why are people so upset at people censoring themselves in this way?

  And I’m not even suggesting that I do this all the time, just in some cases where I specifically want to swear, but softer. Like when I’m trying to make it abundantly clear that I’m not swearing at someone, I’m just swearing in general.

  I really hope this doesn’t come across as confrontational and I appreciate that you took the time to reply. This just really feels like something that harms no one but for some reason makes a lot of people mad.

  I just feel like people can choose for themselves. As another commenter said it takes a lot of the ‘oomph’ out of the swear which I believe does have a time and place. But many people seem to be over the top ofended if you choose to do so.

  I’m certainly not suggesting that ‘everyone needs to censor their swears, think of the women and children!’ But lemmy seems to get more angry than I would consider reasonable if someone does censor themselves.

  Best anti-censor sewers argument I keep seeing is that people are doing it to be more advertiser friendly which is making the internet worse overall, and I while heartedly agree with that, but sometimes with no other motive than I would prefer it, I like to say fxck instead of fuck.

  We’ve gone all the way around so now censoring a swear makes people more upset than actually saying it and I really don’t understand why.

  Year 2000

  Say ‘fuck’

  People get irrationally mad

  Year 2024

  Say ‘fxck’

  People get irrationally mad

  What happened?
