Personally I feel that the show treats the independence of Zaun as that one big gesture, as instead of fixing any of the systemic problems Piltover and Zaun have, the solution is for the council to just wash their hands of the problem.

he did something, much more in fact that pretty much any entity has up to this point, on a world wide stage giving eyes and ears and you want to say it’s not enough?

I understand the logic behind starting a game in a linear fashion, but a couple hours of this? I dunno’.

So what gave you so much trouble that it took you two hours to get through the first two missions?

...of course I believe in Fair Use...

She was treated horribly by them yet wants to be compensated by way of being promoted within the company? Why would she want to keep working for a company who has treated her so poorly?

So, based on your arguments here you do not believe in ‘Fair Use’ as a concept on any level.

I lean on probably largely because I don’t know the code.  Theres always a possibility that a choice in coding along the way makes it something that “can’t” be done (can’t in this case being either not possible, or so much work as to make it not worth it).

Probably not.  Though given they haven’t got co-op up to their expectations yet its not surprising that replaying missions either via set loadouts or in a new game + style in at launch.

Its probably possible to do that (functional new game plus of the missions). At the same time its probably a lot of work to make sure things work right, the boundaries, etc.

ODST was ‘open world’ in a sense (though obviously on a much smaller scale) and as far as I can remember you also could choose what order you did some of the missions in, you could also go back and replay individual missions through the main menu. I don’t really see why they wouldn’t be able to implement this at a…

Makes sense.

This, to me, boggled the mind. You’re telling me that the strong and smart leader of a savvy militant group would make the stupidest tactical mistake in history—that he’d just presume the death of all-time badass Master Chief instead of, I don’t know, double-tapping, burning the body, and dropping the ashes in a pool…

Because they’ve took active stances on industry issues before - remember when Keighly publicly railed against Konami mid-show for mistreating & barring Kojima from coming, before next year showering him with the limelight and praise when he did arrive?

It’s my view that, if you’re choosing to directly reference real world social issues like that, you have a duty to treat them with the depth they deserve and actually say something about them. Doing otherwise at best promotes a shallow and misinformed understanding of said issues in your audience, and at worst means…

They might be terrible and they might be doing this for the wrong reason but the refusal to accept and acknowledge that they’re on our side for this one is everything that’s wrong with politics

We don’t have an absence of data.

So you’re arguing it takes more than $15 Billion to run just YouTube? And thats Youtube excluding Premium and TV.

This announcement comes mere hours after I staked out the heroic, legendary stance that Halo Infinite’s battle pass is totally fine the way it is.

So your argument is that it takes more than $15 billion just to run YouTube?
