Great post. To borrow a quote from that link:

America has far, far more blood on its hands than Saudi Arabia. It’s not even remotely close. So it’s very hypocritical when people cry about Saudi Arabia while turning a blind eye to America’s far worse crimes against humanity. There’s nothing wrong with calling out Saudi companies... But keep that same energy for…

Biden did execute an aid worker and his 7 kids out of a hasty act of revenge . . .

From a non-American perspective, there was no meaningful difference between the Bush and Obama administrations. Obama continued Bush’s illegal wars (and started a few proxy wars of his own), kept Guantanamo Bay open and even ramped up the drone program, to say nothing abut the camps he opened to detain migrants that…

Wow all those sales without adding in a difficulty slider, crazy

Haha “there’s not Switch without the Gameboy Micro” bullshit. Reggie is right about the Micro - it didn’t make sense. It was released after the DS as the GBA was dying, the SP (cups hands over mouth) IS THE DEFINITIVE GAMEBOY EXPERIENCE BECAUSE IT PLAYS THE ENTIRE GAMEBOY LIBRARY, CLOSES CLAMSHELL STYLE FOR PORTABILITY…

This is such a weird take. Reggie’s opinion is that “Maybe we should sell stuff that people like and want to buy?” And your opinion is that the fact that it was weird and dumb was cool, actually? I’m normally 1000% anti-CEO, but... nah he’s correct.

Oh sweetheart, there are plenty of us with responsibilities who also sort of don’t care.

come on man, don’t reduce me to that. if you can’t put things off in the real world for 1-3 minutes while you log out or warp somewhere, that’s the bigger issue than not being able to pause.

i just gave you actual solutions to all of your quandaries, not sure how that’s trolling. you’re trolling me if anything, because this isn’t actually a big deal for real.

what if you get a phone call in the middle of a boss battle?

Just in case you’re somehow not a troll: Do you not understand how constantly online multiplayer focused games work?

is this really an issue for people? it’s not like a returnal run or something.
