- Comment on GTA 6's delay doesn't mean the games industry's in trouble - it's already dead 2 hours ago:
Yeah, I do. A bunch of consolidations is AAA companies have left us steps away from a monopoly on publishers. Given the lack of competition, these big companies have gotten lazy and keep releasing the same shit over and over, some of it ripoffs, some of it remasters. People are getting fed up with it and their easy cash cows are now less profitable than they were.
Instead of changing their plans, they’re firing people. Because the only ones in charge are MBAs, not people who know what their products even are.

Another AAA game I want planning to play getting delayed doesn’t say anything about the games industry. Haven’t been excited about a AAA game in many years now. Everything is a bland cookie cutter sequel, remaster, or battle pass loot box multiplayer arena thingy.

Are you being sarcastic here… Or just a dick?
It’s a privilege to work for a shitty mega corporation making substandard pay for the skills you have?!
- Comment on From 4chan to the White House: James Ball explains how failing to take games seriously has fed the populist right 6 days ago:
This is an incredibly stupid attempt to bring games into a situation or is not involved in at all.
Young men have been driven right because a portion of the left have been really bad with their messaging and like to generalize a bit much about men being the source of social problems, despite young men being just as much victims to the billionaires who have been buying up our politicians to undermine our rights for decades. Society still has an outsized expectation for men to be the providers, despite women overtaking them in college degrees allowing them to often earn more.
The right wing preying on these ostracized people who often frequent gaming communities isn’t them taking gaming seriously. It’s them recognizing a hunting ground for manipulatable desperate people who want some kind of change.

That’s seems very stupid given that renewables are actually cheaper at this point
- Comment on Toys ‘R’ Us Live-Action Movie in the Works With Story Kitchen (EXCLUSIVE) 2 weeks ago:
The film, which is in early development, aims to capture that childhood wonder in a modern, fast-paced adventure that taps into the Toys“R”Us brand’s relevance across its more than 70 years in the toy industry
It kind of took a break from being relevant for like 15 years…

Half of US adults have reading comprehension skills at our below a 6th grade level. If you believe this article, guess where you fall in that spectrum?
- Comment on Indonesian student who joined George Floyd 'riot' and destroyed property complains as he's seized by ICE 2 weeks ago:
He’s still entitled to due process before jackboots send him to a death camp. Also we shouldn’t have giving death camps.
We have a convicted felon in the white house ordering the abductions of legal residents and you’re whining about some spray paint…

Lol, what? Are you pretending like the late 90s was the infancy of gaming? The industry had already collapsed and rebounded like twice by then
- Comment on The most influential video game of all time - Bafta 4 weeks ago:
You can tell this survey was filled out almost entirely by millennials by this collection. Almost all games that came out during their childhood or their young adult years, except those 2 they’re playing right now.

Not the way they keep cancelling every show they produce before anyone has the chance to check them out…wasted a lot of my time on unfinished series

Correct. This is why Disney is now using a sniper of steamboat Willy in it’s opening logo - making it part of its trademark
- Comment on Alarm as Florida Republicans move to fill deported workers’ jobs with children: ‘It’s insane, right?’ 5 weeks ago:
Of the people that were of age, were able, and did vote, just over half voted for Trump, assuming voting tallies were accurate.
False. He didn’t even win 50% of the people who did vote for president. He only won a plurality.

A few dozen bomb threats at polling places in the swing states makes it real suspect whether we actually did vote him in.

The party of “family values” was always referring to the value of their labor potential those greedy pieces of shit were longing to utilize.

Of course not. They only said that to raise approval for the bullshit they’re doing. You won’t see that money. They’ll raising the government to enrich themselves off your tax dollars, not to save you anything
- Comment on Why is Trump not able to end wars (as he promised he said he would) 1 month ago:
Because he’s a blustering liar, who overestimates his own negotiating abilities, and probably doesn’t actually care to fulfill the many promises he’s made.
Also, he’s obviously working to help Russia, and israel

We pay twice what other countries do for healthcare, for much worse results. The insurance plague is definitely party of the problem.
When insurance companies are auto denying claims in hope you give up and never challenge that bullshit contact breach, it’s definitely a massive part of the problem.

No it’s definitely “too”, no “to”. Too is a statement of how much, to us a statement of direction. OP is not going toward lazy.
