I mean, what is this chart? What are the metrics?
“A book?” Jeez, take a hard look in the mirror, friend! It’s obviously “an book.”
Jesus Christ. This is why people hate Americans.
How was the second one “so bad?” It had incredible narrative, more in depth gameplay, challenging and coherent themes, depth of storytelling, it took risks that a lot of people didn’t like, but you can’t say they were done poorly. They were just challenging for people. And that’s good. The same stories told with the same character arcs following the same hero’s journey is boring. TLOU2 challenged you with the characters making choices you wouldn’t, it challenged you with co placated character arcs that saw well-loved characters turn into the villains, while the villain of the story became the one to end the cycle of violence…it was incredible. That worldbuilding, the design, the voice acting, the mocap acting, the more varied fighting styles, the expansive world…I mean, shit, I really do want to know what you thought actually classified as “bad” about that game. It pissed people off. But that does not make it a bad game by any stretch of the imagination.
Wait a second:
it’s hard for apple to manufacture devices in a country with robust labor rights.
Robust labor rights? The US?
We have child labor making a comeback here. It’s not that far fetched to imagine children working in hypothetical US factories if things keep going the way they’re going.
Has seriously no one mentioned The Last of Us? That’s crazy.
I think the second should be included.
As well as red dead redemption 2.
The storytelling is just top tier. Better than literally almost all media made today.

lol what does that even mean? Four people downvoted it
Yeah but the last group isn’t big on electric cars
Also, it really just depends on your age. Have you believed for decades? Not believing at some point in your life will be some kind of earth shaking change.
The kochs have been the actual boogeymen of American politics for a long time. They’re basically what the right always fear soros is, but for racist, imperialist, corporatist shit. They basically responsible for citizens united.
lol farming for engagement on lemmy? One of the, like, 10,000 people worldwide trying to get points that aren’t even counted? Doubtful
Why does this entire distinction matter? You’re like the dairy industry saying oat and soy mills can’t be called “milk.” Who tf cares
Wait, are people censoring the word “kidnap” now?
…no. They already got that. It was called the holocaust. ANOTHER holocaust is not the answer. They just seem to have somehow forgotten the lessons they should have learned.
Such a strange comment given recent news
So are, in this context “obnoxious and outrageous.”
Sure, it’s outrageous in some sense of the word, but it’s far on the other side of egregious, base, despicable, horrifying.
Oh and there’s one more word for it: fucking genocide.
The post body said their eyes were closed when they found them, and they were slimy. So probably got abandoned by the mother because it was a blind runt?
Because no matter the business, the game is capitalism. Who has the cutthroat, borderline personality to “make the tough calls” (read: weigh the cost benefit analysis of screwing the next group of people).
It doesn’t matter what the business is. Because it’s just about cost and benefit to these people. If they can cut costs, they will. If the benefits are lacking in that people will be outraged enough to stop buying, or the lawsuits will cost more than the profit increase percentage (factored into the actual viability of the claims and the affected group’s buying power for legal representation), then they don’t do it.
Nowhere does “but is it right” factor in. It’s only “will people find out, and if they do can we weather the storm.”
Capitalism should die.
Or babel. Anything but Duolingo at this point seems like the best bet
I need help. I saw a trailer for a movie maybe three or four years ago and I can't remember what it's called
I heard I could see some dude talking to themself about synthesizers here. You got any more of that in stock?
