It’s not about taking matches “seriously” - it’s about basic etiquette. Just because the matches don’t “matter” doesn’t mean it’s okay to degrade the experience for others. “Casual” doesn’t mean no rules. If you’re rage-quitting and going AFK, you’re not there to play the game as intended and should be punished.…

And always take a fishing friend with you. I swear, seaweed is the worst grind in the game as you need so much of it to make a bunch of rope. Hardwood is also a pain, but gets better once you get the second shovel upgrade.

Some management fuck is spouting rote anti-union talking points that ignore the overwhelming good unions have done for actual workers? Why I never!

That was true for along time before the militarization of police though.

The trio: Poncho, Percy, and Phil.

I don’t know. The paragraphs that explicitly spoke to the game play didn’t make it sound all that good or fun. I guess you were too busy rubbing your hands together in glee at your sick dunk on the author to actually read the article.

Inglorious Basterds works because it doesn’t pull punches or pretend it’s something it’s not, and it’s extremely self-aware. This game is the polar opposite, without any of the self-awareness.
