    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    You know who really loves this game? Twitch thots. Top-rated game among Twitch thots. Therefore, I declare you are all simps. Anyway, yeah, this looks like a good game for under twenty bucks six months from now when everyone moves onto being butthurt and counterbutthurt about something else.

    The Dell has a 3-year burn-in warranty. I played a shitload of classic WoW with static hotbars, and spend the rest of my time in Microsoft Word on the same PC, and no issues on my 1st gen Samsung panel so far after a year.

    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    Modern Conservatives: Books for teenagers should never mention the existence of sex. But video games should flash vag. Whatever, guerilla marketing works. A blatant 7/10 game turns into a "10/10 must buy to the defeat the woke mafia."

    I had it, or the other one just like it, and now it looks like a joke compared an OLED. Find some promo and buy the Dell 27" OLED instead.

    Video games have publishers? Weird. And yes, I think editorial control by publishers is bad, but it is also not new.

    What? When did I say I was against titties? I just don't think titties-or-no-titties is some kind of meaningful, society-shifting political ponderance, especially from an Asian game.

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    I think they're supposed to be difficult, require grouping. The problem with WoW players is that they will always optimize the shortest path to the cheese, turning a challenging activity into a cumbersome exercise that borders on the edge of exploitation.

    Been considering the same with the dollar booming this hard, but historically when things go south with Asian currencies, things go REALLY south, REALLY fast. There's no guarantee the BoJ has the required toolkit/economic knobs to turn this around. Maybe buying solid NIKKEI equities might be...

    I really don't think Ubisoft made that character intentionally ugly, I think their engine just sucks ass. Like how in DA:I and Andromeda you could make a character that looked fantastic in the character creator and then looked like a hideous fucking zombie as soon as you encountered zone...

    Y'all just act super weird over the weirdest shit. You act weird when people get all butthurt about stupid shit, now you're acting weird because people you don't like aren't getting butthurt enough over this game. Like, no one cares that this game has an Asian babe with a BBL. No one cares...

    Is this supposed to be bad? 25 years ago, video games were good and the only culture war was a united front against Jack Thompson.

    An Asian game has tits and ass, like every other Asian game, and you're all freaking out like this is some world-shattering phenomenon.

    Sucking ass was priced in and they didn't suck quite as much ass as expected? idk nothing makes sense, proceed with conspiracy theories instead.

    You're arguing about totally different sets of numbers. "Initial jobless claims" and "jobs added" aren't in any way directly linked.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I think it was Snow Crash that postulated that the "babel" effect that causes languages to diverge instead of converge effectively created a firewall slowing the spread of bad cultural memes. Anyway, Joe's idea is fucking stupid because you would literally need language police to stop language...

    The point is that it's an aggregate of state data, and the state data is available if you want to look at it. Unless you think every state, which are controlled by totally different political forces, is publishing bullshit numbers.

    I'm going off data and arguments from someone who has funded literally over 1000 startups as their fulltime job. That's what VCs do, they fund startups knowing that 17 out of every 20 will fail and disappear into oblivion, 2 will break even and hope the 20th pays off bigly. I am not going to...

    My point is that most companies and most products fail. But people only pick up on the failures that align with their agenda. That's how confirmation bias works. My other point is that a certain kind of reactionary constantly picks up on the new three-syllable-thing to hate. It's a weirdly...

    i think we're going to see a lot of studios close due to larger market trends (we already have) and anytime one of them shows even the faintest hint of diversity in content or composition, it's going to trigger confirmation bias and cause NPCs to shout DEI because their lizard brains can only...
