I like how they keep needing tax breaks and shit because they provide jobs.

Here’s Louis CK’s joke on it: youtu.be/r6x3e8MurQY?t=72
Yes, I know he’s cancelled and all that but I don’t know I still love his comedy. Like … I cut out a lot of comics like Joe Rogan (just kidding, he’s barely a comedian) so I dunno I just remembered this joke.
- Comment on It's why they tried to get rid of it 3 days ago:
The thing with jokes like these and Birds Aren’t Real and Russel’s Teapot and stuff is just that we don’t believe in them and the people that do believe in the vaccine cause autism BS is that they do fervently do.

Can you give me a few solid examples or some slides that they shared for your specific DEI program? I’ve done two and it’s some of the most boring and dry shit that I’ve ever listened to.
For ours, it was mainly that you can get talent from anywhere. It wasn’t about hating white men or nothing. I mean, at least it wasn’t for the ones that I’ve attended?
- Comment on Are people around you still excited about MCU movies? 1 week ago:
Eternals was the first MCU movie where I was like, this one should have been a miniseries on Disney+.
Telling a story through time like that should take time. Would have been good to do an episode on each of them and then have them reunite and stuff.
Also, like, in terms of the acting… I didn’t think it was great. Angelina Jolie is by far the best actor on the cast. So much so, it’s jarring. The ending was weird too. Felt thematically like it came from a different genre too.
I definitely wanted to like it more than I did.
- Comment on I watched Arrival (2016), there was a lot more to it than I was expecting 1 week ago:
Amy Adams wrecked me with two movies back-to-back. Nocturnal Animals and Arrivals really did a number on me.
- Comment on Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled 4 weeks ago:
lol no worries, my comment came off as arrogant so it’d be deserved. Reserving judgment is good and something I some practice more as well.
- Comment on Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled 4 weeks ago:
Yeah you’re absolutely right in terms of concept. I mean if you dig into my example, Suicide Squad could have been a good live-action shooter as well. Marvel Rivals is cooking right now.
I think my initial impression was switching a single-player studio over, but I lost that message in my reply. I also think it could be fun to take down mechs together as a team.
Just pulling it out of my ass, I didn’t think I see the appetite and if it’s not there then we could be left with a lackluster game.
I’m a big Horizon fan. Although I need to try Monster Hunter, my friends love it.
- Comment on Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled 4 weeks ago:
Oh, I didn’t mean this-therefore-that … I was trying to say that these two games in my experience having enjoyed the single-player, I think would have failed in the multiplayer realm as the desire doesn’t seem to be there. I’m certain there are examples in the opposite direction.
The IP “could” make sense as the gameplay goes for a very fetch questy type of mechanic and the land is vast and they could expand the lore.
I was just assuming (out of my ass) that these successful single-player story driven games are “forced” to do multiplayer games for cash grabs.
Albeit Blizzard did it for WarCraft, but I always saw Blizzard differently in this regard as it seemed like they had (very much past tense) the desire to do so.
Once again, all assumptions.
- Comment on Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled 4 weeks ago:
Yes, I’m in my 40s … I think at the time most people wanted an MMO of that RTS game.
I don’t see the parallel between that and the lore of the single player story-driven Horizon Zero Dawn but hey.
- Comment on Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled 4 weeks ago:
But it worked so well with the multiplayer shooter Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League by Rocksteady Studios! /s
I know it’s not an MMO but there’s parallels there
I love the Horizon games (didn’t play the Lego version though) and it’s similar to the Batman games but don’t have any interest in an MMO or Live Action Shooter for them.

Looks like Mio, you add it to your water to get flavoured water. I guess like Tang or Kool-Aid but modern and typically zero calories or something like that.
I’m guessing this one has caffeine and for some reason they chose not to mix it with water.

He didn’t suffer as much as the pain he’s inflicted upon others. He also didn’t bankrupt his family in the process.
I can’t say this is the way I want society to run … but quite frankly I think we’re all sick of pretending that killing someone with a pen is any different than killing someone with a gun.

I remember working in the London UK office and we curse non-stop over there it’s great. Whenever our colleagues from SF would visit they would always be surprised how much we swear. I’d see them do the turnaround like, ‘what just happened?’.

lol, it’s alright, it’s cold communication on the Internet. I also genuinely thank you for both replies!

I mean I think I understand the argument for your distinction. I don’t play either games, I just watched VFX artists reaction and say Snoop Dogg in it so I was wondering why it’s such a big deal with Tencent. As he does seem to “dance” in CoD: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdhPvXhXoUM.
I may take slight issue with your last statement. To be clear, I’m not trying to have a “dishonest discussion”, I genuinely don’t understand the distinction and there isn’t really an article or anything here for me to clarify.
Thanks for your input on it though.
