The games were cool. The art was cool too. So get rid of the hate in your heart, and maybe then you can find true happiness, ya fuckin weeb.

I’ve noticed in my work as a victim advocate that some people who survived are prone at times to developing a cold and calloused attitude to those who they feel aren’t strong enough. It’s an attitude of, “I made it, I’m doing what I need to do to survive, so why can’t you.” I see the same in some people who made it…

It’s because she’s been victimized so much and not dealt with it that she’s saying these things.

lol huh? Explain.

You’re still doing it lol. I never said you have to do more explaining, in fact, I think you should have done less explaining.

You didn’t need to get all angry and defensive in your responses. You could’ve replied something like: “well that’s true probably great for blind people but it sounds awful for me.” I think a comment like that would have prevented the spiral into a vortex of anger and conflict that this thread has become. Unless you…

I could think of plenty of things...

Someone commonting on/being proud of not having heard of something is never interesting. Your name, however, is the most interesting thing on this thread rn. Why Gillian Anderson and what was her original face shape like? Sometimes I wonder about how you all derive your usernames.

And this is why the gamers are all virgins trope exists.

Oh wooooooow. That is so amazing! I am really glad you shared this accomplishment with us. Really inspiring, and btw congratulations. I hope you are as proud of yourself as we are of you.

Oh well my bad, thought you were talking about HamNo. I haven’t been reading your conversation with that guy so I have no idea what his positions are. I was responding to you specifically.

You don’t have to be convinced to spend more, it happens naturally and gradually, as inflated prices become the new normal.

Here is another article just published today where HamNo also calls it a “classic bubble,” and links to this very article, thus proving what I’ve been saying to be true.

You say that, but the economic unrest I’m talking about is what got Donald Trump elected to president. Everyone is concerned about the same issues. We might argue over how to solve them, but people at least agree on the stuff they care about right now.

Inflation may be increasing the price of goods and services.

No one is saying that we should stop making video games so I don’t see where this argument is coming from. Just stop with shady microtranscation bullshit and everything will be fine.

Inflation does not = what people have in the bank. Inflation may be increasing the price of goods and services. But it does not mean that people are making more money to equalize this process. Wages have been stagnant for a long time. This means that if the price of goods and services goes up, people are effectively…

You know what the real problem is? It’s not the devs and its not the consumers, it’s income inequality. The real problem is that wages in America are stagnant and have been for a long time. So while the value of goods and services continues to rise, wages are not keeping pace, which means the more expensive things…

The price of books, movies and music has not risen all that much either, and yet they somehow sustain their value. If anything, they are getting cheaper. I for one am not willing to pay $80 for a game. I don’t even pay $60 for most games (the only game I paid full price for on current gen was Persona 5, other than…

Stocks, bonds, and foreign currencies can only be spent in some places, still have value.
