To an extent you’re right, but I think you’re overplaying just how much we know about these things and our capacity to manipulate behaviour through UX.

Sure but that’s not some psychological trick, and certainly not inherently evil — it’s just how they’ve tied their progression system into their business model.

I just don’t understand why that’s even necessary. Like what kind of lavishly, cartoonishly rich Bond villains are out there streaming high-definition video or playing demanding games over cellular data? 

That does make some sense. So the issue is with the scaling, not the display itself - it’s a problem unique to playing old games on technology they weren’t designed for.

Literally every other competitive esport in existence manages fine with regular monitors.

This is fucking hilarious, Smash is full of petulant manbabies. Perfect example of why nobody takes that community seriously.

The aesthetic is so stylized that there’s only so many improvements to be made.

I couldn’t feel any more different tbh. I thought Burch’s writing was an absolutely awful stain on an otherwise really great game, and it genuinely impacted my enjoyment of it. His sense of humor doesn’t seem to have progressed beyond 2004 Newgrounds-era “walrus spork sO rAnDoMb xD” style jokes.

Quick, someone call House.

It’s weird, because he always seemed like a pretty normal guy back in the alpha days. Then one day he just... snapped and started posting absolutely wild rants on Twitter. I wanna say it was around the time he made the news for outbidding Jay Z on that giant mansion.

Giving this much of a shit about whether or not a food is “correct” is for people who don’t have a real personality.

I think he’s supposed to be the god of the world because people believe the world... exists? I really don’t know where they’re going with him either, it seems so incongruous to the rest of the Gods being manifestations of actual, concrete belief systems.
