Yeah, it’s cringe to be better than others.
That’s why you’re not.

Would you buy it?
If everyone around me was doing it, sure!

Just kidding, but this is how the average idiot thinks these days.

I always consider the profit margins on whatever I’m buying.
The profit margins are insane for a $5 milkshake. Even if you think you’re not getting ripped off, you are.
The same goes for coffee and soft drinks. You’re paying meat-prices for no meat and the businesses are pocketing the difference.

Make sure everyone checks the modlog to see how the mods are serving Israel’s interests.
It’s gotten so bad we can’t even say how bad it is.

No, you copied it.
You’re insulting me because you’re wrong and cognitive dissonance is kicking in.

Why the fuck aren’t we doing more of it?
Because we’re stupid.

The assets were copied, not stolen.
You can’t steal ideas.

God, that trailer just reeks of hollywood bullshit.
No art. No risks. Just copying whatever the people at their liberal arts colleges told them to do.

Exactly. It’s an assistant, not a replacement.
A programmer who never uses AI is just as stupid as a programmer who never uses search engines.

Yeah, I don’t know why so many projects cave the bitching of morons on the internet.

It makes sense.
The gooner crowd has no problem getting taken for a ride.
- Comment on DEAD OR ALIVE New Project - Teaser Trailer 2 weeks ago:
The sexualized characters are the main focus.
There’s no reason to play it over Tekken or Mortal Kombat if you value a good fighting game.
- Comment on DEAD OR ALIVE New Project - Teaser Trailer 2 weeks ago:
It’s a fighting game for lonely manchildren.
- Comment on Young gamers in Japan may not be forming the same attachment to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest because modern dev cycles are as long as their childhood, users theorize - AUTOMATON WEST 2 weeks ago:
There’s not really a reason for games to be taking so long to make other than too many cooks in the corporate kitchen.
Back when studios were run by the developers, great games came out on almost a yearly basis. If they had 2 years? You’re almost guaranteed a classic.
Now that the business school people make all the decisions and there’s so much money being wasted on unnecessary positions in these companies, customers are left out to dry.
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 2 weeks ago:
Skyrim is great.
Losers with poor taste will tend to hate on it because it’s popular and they think “game x” should have more recognition.
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 2 weeks ago:
No it hasn’t.
It’s actually on it’s way to achieve “Classic” status.
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 2 weeks ago:
Probably Overwatch or PUBG.
Both games started out with huge potential, and then proceeded to squander all of it as time went on.
Overwatch was kind of doomed from the beginning. The 6 player limit is really oppressive and makes the game feel more like ‘work’ than ‘fun.’ As time went on, the game became less fun because MMR meant you were always playing with people around your skill level. Some people like that. I don’t. I want to see myself getting better by having more fun killing others who aren’t on my level. I don’t care about some symbol that says I’m in a higher league or whatever. Then they decided to drop the player count down to 5 and I literally haven’t been back since.
PUBG just went in the completely wrong direction. It’s like they knew the right answers, and specifically chose the wrong ones. 8-man squads, TDM, 50v50 wars; that’s really where the game shined. Unfortunately, it’s next to impossible to play any of that with any consistency.
I’d wager the main reasons these games failed (for me) is that they don’t allow people to host their own servers. Valve never got to make retarded decisions with TF2 because they always had to compete with a playerbase that could tweak the game to suit their needs.
TF2 still holds up to this day. As it turns out, having fun in games is more fun than taking them seriously.

I work in tech too, and I’m convinced almost none of these abusive tactics are the result of incompetence.
The abuse is the point. They need to constantly remind people who is in charge.

This is what Google does. They censor content and keep it gone as long as there isn’t a sufficient retaliation.
It’s what they did to remove AdNauseam from their addon repository. The only difference is nobody fought back so it remains gone to this day without justifiable reason.

Jews control most of the world and get angry whenever there’s something popular that they can’t manipulate.
Major corporations are their tools.
