Reading this as someone who bounced off Sword/Shield HARD after getting progressively more disappointed/fed up with the series as they’ve gone on like you, you’ve pretty much sold me on it.

That anecdote about Magmar and the bridge is the most exciting thing I’ve read about the game, nothing gets me going these days like a game respecting my time.

“This has no impact on Nintendo.”

lol, everyone is running with their heads cut off and Nintendo is just like “How about some Mario Kart tralalalala!” completely unaffected.

People are depressing.

The amount of people stuck in a Brand Loyalty/schoolyard Console War mentality is depressing.

Didn’t the late, great Paul Mooney have an entire bit on this like 20 years ago? He’d list all the supposed “anti-white” “slurs” like “cracker”, “honky”, “white trash”, etc., and note that white people had never cared at all about being called any of them, and concluded that the appropriate derogatory term for whites…

No white person has ever been offended by being called a cracker. It is not a slur in the way that other terms targeting one’s race are. This is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard.

Not true. Words have historical contexts that shape their connotative meaning. “Cracker” has none of the (frankly despicable) historical context of systemic oppression that slurs like the n-word have. Words like the n-word were used to express white dominance over another race and culture. Words like “cracker” were…

I’m so white my favorite meal is unseasoned boiled chicken on wonderbread with heavy mayonnaise, and even *I* think these people are fragile...
