Uh, no, it’s a meme because people suck and are unoriginal.

Well, 40% of us

It’s wild that you dorks will up vote preemptive excuse making just because someone took a pleasant tone.

Funnily enough, about a decade or so ago some war plans leaked for a USA vs everyone else war. That’s not unusual, that’s the job of the Pentagon, to make plans for every contingency so they can dust them off when something similar comes up and then not use most of it.

What was unusual is that they might have actually worked, in a “force a peace treaty” sort of way. The Pentagon identified the key, and frankly quite obvious weak point:

America has the strongest air force and fleets in the world by a decent margin (until relatively recently), and the world depends on fossil fuel pipelines and tankers that are quite easily destroyed when you have the only real blue water navy.

In a sane world, every general on the planet would have been screaming at their governments to push green energy after this plan leaked.

Never forget, never forgive

Oh, these are like, an industrial product. I thought everyone was just shitting on something a fan sent in.

They don’t charge 100k

This is going to piss off some people, but I knew this generation was in trouble when HellDivers became big.

That game isn’t hot garbage, per se, but the fact that it got the success it did is a pretty damning indictment of the state of multiplayer shooters.

Nothing that I can think of off the top of my head but every once in a while you’ll hear about restored content or various IP shenanigans getting pushed by definitely-not-the-devs on modding forums.

There are a couple games where it’s an open secret that the “community” modders were the devs

When Google itself is the one stopping you from clicking on a website you’ve got a problem.

That’s never actually about humility though, that’s about enforcing heirarchy. Dear Leader gets to be as arrogant as he wants, the kids deserve to get slapped into “their place.”

The CEOs get their gold toilets, the prosperity gospel preachers their fleets of luxury cars, and the peons are to be humble and obedient.

I mean, the Marxist wouldn’t try to miss.

What ever gave you the impression conservatives didn’t glorify narcissists?

“Bethesda game in spaaaaaceee” is more than that, you know it, and it was proven when one of the first costume mods on Nexus was the space suit with a force field boob window tyvm.

So abolish copyright law entirely instead of only allowing theft when capitalists do it.

Don’t think too closely about whether your catchphrase is the result of or plays into groupthink itself.

I was just flabbergasted that they decided to make all of their perk trees boring and lame. I genuinely don’t remember anything about the characters other than disappointment.

Roland, Mordecai, Brick, Lilith: character design masterpieces. Distinct styles and strengths but not overly limited. Zer0, Salvador, Gage, Axton, Magic Chick 2: great, less type specialized but that’s not a bad thing.

Everyone else? Just walking gun stats. And not particularly fun ones.

Aren’t Layton games basically a visual novel?

I’d appreciate calls for nuance more if most of the time the people doing it weren’t just exclusing hypocrisy and crimes against humanity.
