Squall is a much more relatable character in 2019. His entire dialogue reads like a self-deprecating young adult’s twitter thread just trying to make it in this broken world. 

... whatever.

My teammates on the high school cross country squad.  If I never see any of them again, I would have no problem with it.  It’s a shitty thing to do, and Katy Perry is a shitty person for doing it.

You’re right.  If there’s one thing Fallout 76 needs more than anything right now it’s bans for people who find a way to make the game fun.  

Thing is, in 1999 audiences left theaters satisfied, almost giddy, with Episode 1. Darth Maul was the character with the biggest impact and the climatic battle ended a 16 year light saber battle drought. It was in the years that followed that the nerd echo chamber exploded and public derision for the film came to the…

I-T-S-A-M-E-M-A-R-I-O

Because maybe those of us with careers, wives, mortgages, children, etc. would still like to have fun playing a video game every once and a while, without having to commit to an extensive training regiment.

Oh yeah because games should only be for the hardcore people.

reminds of the superstore episode where they have Glenn’s first edition Superman #1...and rip the pages out to discard their gum in it. That sound is my soul crushing. 

Yeah, that’s classic opportunistic thief behavior: take what you can and throw away what you don’t think is worth anything/you can sell.

This....seems like a weirdly plausible scenario :(

If somebody stole it they probably opened it at home, realized it was some dumb card and just tossed it in disgust.

Honestly... suck it the fuck up.
The whole damn engine is rebuilt, every single pokemon has to be remade, reanimated, reprogrammed, balanced, etc. On top of that, the more detailed and complex everything becomes, the more time needs to be dedicated to each and every pokemon.
And doing it for well over 1000 pokemon is…

I’m going to buy the game, I’m going to enjoy it. Will I be upset that not every single pokemon to ever exist will be in it? no, no I won’t. Why? Because they’re nearly 1000 pokemon and I wouldn’t wish on any developer/designer/animator to code, animate, etc all of them. That’s insane and totally unrealistic.

Because like most gaming fans they are entitled children that cannot respect the creators or understand this is a business.

I’m to the point now, as a man in a professional work environment, where I don’t usually trust people in suits and ties. (exceptions apply for businesses with archaic dress codes where suits are still required)

I vaguely recall Destiny was once long ago planned to have both space combat and seamless flight from and to planet surfaces, so you’d be flying from the Tower directly to Mars or whatever. The objectively useless spaceships are basically a vestigial remnant of that older version of the game.

I posit that participating in a fighting game tournament and “behaving in an adult manner” [sic] are pretty mutually exclusive.
