Easy to enjoy life when the shutdown, which could continue again in a few weeks, doesn’t effect you.

I’ll be sure to tell people it’s not that bad where I live, in the DC Metro area, when this happens again in a few weeks because the shutdown hasn’t been completely averted yet. 

Exactly, the fact that this could continue in a few weeks is the issue. Most people already live paycheck to paycheck, and ignoring the suffering of government employees and contractors for a lame joke is pretty sad. 

It’s not PC crap, it’s being tone-deaf to hundreds of thousands of people who were told by their government to either take out a loan or contact their debt collectors. That’s people who have jobs being told to make a deal with the people they owe money to by their boss while their boss doesn’t do shit to help them.…

Exactly, especially when that suffering is continuing because of not knowing whether or not the shut down will continue again in a few weeks. 

I’m sure it is pretty hilarious to anyone not effected by the shut down, but a lot of people are and take it very seriously, as they should. People aren’t getting their paychecks and were literally told by government officials to take out loans and contact your debt collectors to make an agreement with them. This is…

His point is that these guys haven’t exactly been a good example of the type of person we can trust when it comes to accusations like this and that’s something we should consider. You say the lack in number of accusations doesn’t invalidate accusations, but does them lying about it in court invalidate it? Looking at…

You mean right when the linebacker intervenes and essentially takes a guy off him? Quickly followed by him falling to the ground because of the triple team?

Exaclty. What they also conveniently leave out in the gif is that the entire Eagles D-line reacts passively in the example plays against the Bears because they’re coached to do so in this situation. It’s not Cox being lazy, it’s bad coaching.

“If this is such a notable and exploitable tendency that they keyed on, why did they bother to run three OL at him to block him if they thought they had an advantage? That, more than any “lack of effort” excuse, is why the play worked.”

This is bullshit to call this out as though Fletcher Cox did something wrong here. Look at each of the example plays they show and the ENTIRE D-line reacts passively - because they’re coached to, not because they’re lazy. This is simply lazy ass analysis. That’s not even accounting for Cox getting fucking triple…

Except it’s not about allowing people to connect to the device, because they’re not knowingly allowing that to happen.

I haven’t done any research into the game he’s discussing here, but that gif is a terrible example of defending Stafford in my opinion. It may be a bad play call, but why does he immediately go to the only receiver who is short of the first down marker when he obviously has a well developed pocket and time to throw?

It’s more about prioritizing their time. And it does reflect poorly on them when they get photographed saving a car from a rich person’s home while 9 people have died during the fires. Nobody’s saying they can’t do both, but to spread this picture around and proclaim these firefighters heroes for saving a car is…

Your point would be valid if the game didn’t have NPCs that exist in it that completely ignore the player and appear to lead routine lives. So if the game already possesses the required tech to create those characters, why couldn’t they create characters that exist for the player to interact with but also lead normal…

I can’t believe how much this gets under estimated. The amount of complaining that goes on about games online is done by such a minuscule amount of gamers that it’s never worth listening to the vast majority of the time.

Because of what happens with games in this industry, not all games get made and announcing a game 2-3 years before its release has become idiotic. Especially when Blizzard themselves has had this happen with a game, in Overwatch.

My argument to that would be that if you purchased a Blizzcon ticket solely for the purpose of seeing the Diablo announcement then you’re an idiot considering all the stuff they have available there. I’m dead serious when I say that. They offer so much that any gamer even half interested in any Blizzard game would get…

You’re missing the point. It’s not about whether you choose to interact with them, but rather that the characters literally do nothing BUT give you the option to interact with them. They don’t have anything else in the game they do but serve to be interacted with, unlike the hundreds of other characters that have…

I get that gamers want to feel special in a game they play, but there’s ways to do that without breaking immersion and presenting NPCs that do nothing but interact with the character. Again, it’s not about the fact that they can be interacted with, but rather that being their sole purpose to where they stand out like…
