What they’re doing is maximizing their profit as the expense of gaming fun, which is why their explanation is gibberish. They can’t tell us the truth, so they make up nonsense and hope lazy stenographers don’t make any inquiries and the players get busy debating the nonsense they said was the issue. 

A game that requires you to be always be online to play it has a long term design goal of continuously monetizing players through various tactics to motivate players to buy things after the game is bought to look more unique or have access to rare powers.

Meta being unfair was the story they gave. Making the game more efficiently profitable was the goal. If the goal was a better gaming experience they’d be proud of it and announcing it with fanfare. This rollout shouts late Friday bad news drop tactics of knowing that the fans are going to be irate, at the very least,…

If that was true we probably wouldn’t be aware of how incredibly dumb things are because we ourselves would be too stupid to notice it. 

Again, gaming made ten times the money movies did last year. That’s the opposite of a niche. 

FYI the video gaming industry made ten times the money the film industry last year. 

Bad news for your prediction: Trixie Mattel has founded the Barbenheimer Institute to help raise money for STEM degrees for incredibly attractive women.

My chaotic neutral bard has a feat in advanced gaslighting and if you tell them otherwise it’s clearly a part of a plot engineered by Lolth, who, like most arch villains, has no sense of humor.

Thank you for this Emergency Nerd Alert Broadcast. Now I have two game imperatives: don’t skip the opening scene and have sex with Halsin in bear form.

It’s an absurd argument to think there’s some guy out there who is massively competitive in sports and really wants to win but just keeps coming up short so decides the way to start winning is taking female hormones and becoming a trans woman and competing against women. 

It’s polling poorly because the GOP has executed a preplanned strategy of attacking trans issues and drag queens as their new wedge issue strategy. It was once gay marriage, because gay marriage ick!! And then a decade later the tide started turning against that hatred. Another decade and SCOTUS is ruling gay marriage…

That’s bullshit hairsplitting designed to blame the accusers for the “problems” their accusations create. “They’re not even believing these bitches, they’re just weary of dealing with accusations from these bitches and that’s not fair!” Thisbitchagain indeed.

You’re the one with the complaint, it’s not our job to figure out how you’d mitigate this supposed problem. If you think it’s problem, propose the solutions. You sound like Flanders’ parents, “We tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas, man.” This is one of the situations where involving the government to solve this…

His career has zero to do with due process, which is a legal precedent for courtrooms not matters of public opinion or employment. How does one get due process in regards to their job without involving the government? How does this even work? Sure, it’s not fair, and so what? Life has never been fair and it’s only in…

Make gems more useful! 

I am a massive procrastinator and usually wait until the last moment to get things done. Putting out one podcast every three months is absurd considering they most assuredly did not do any of the editing. All they had to do was take a question from “random” Spotify users where they’d pick which ones they want to…

The All New Garrus Fleshlight! (tm)

We need a statue of a shark jumping over Fonzie. 

Bill Cosby has ordered six female versions for his bedroom.

You say so, but then you offer no other examples of a publisher “being saved” by being bought save Arkane. And since you’re prone to compulsive conjecture why should I believe anything you say? And I most definitely am not going to do your homework for you and look things up to prove you wrong. I enjoy writing, I…
