“...it’s 2017 and that shouldn’t be a problem.”

And why is that? Because you shitpost out of habit, like in this recent exchange between you and a woman you don’t know?

*shrug* I agree with most of what you wrote there.

I hope that’s true. Is your computer capable of achieving that level of performance? What’s your metric of comparison?

No, it isn’t. This game is far from a “lousy vehicle”. No one is asking you to pay $60 for Custer’s Revenge.

A sixty dollar game, you mean? Or do you want the expansion too?

Probably way more, if the *Hunter* gets 5.

Art echoing reality for sure. Reminds me of property disputes in Second Life.

Have any of you actually coded so much as a line of code in your lives, much less done a full 3d title?

By “mean to me” do you mean “one of them said he wanted to put me in a concentration camp”, “another one threatened to rape my mother and sister”, and “another one threatened to beat me bodily for suggesting some Palestinians have valid grievances against Israel”?

It also happens to be a very good game. It would be a very good game if it were redone entirely in sprite graphics, assuming those graphics were up to par. It is full of secrets, its world is compelling and well-written, its characters are unique and appealing, its mechanics are rewarding without being unfair or…

I look forward to the day that people can explore the idea that not only is subjective enjoyment impossible to scientifically quantify, but that as a result *others shouldn’t have to enjoy the same things you do at the same level you do just because you do*.

It’s less a question of image and self-selling in my eyes than it is that Democrats have passed a majority of the legislation that has obliterated blue-collar white American jobs in recent decades - and they just have no idea the effect it’s really had on blue-collar whites. NAFTA is the largest offender, but the…

You are quite wrong. There are indeed tens of millions of undecided voters in any election - far from the 100 million or so that each party can reliably claim as its base, but enough to swing elections. I myself talked to a great many undecided voters while canvassing in 2008. There are many, many more than you…

It is never particularly “a wash”.

Ya know, I am American, with Jewish ancestry and a Jewish last name. Do you know what right-wing Israelis call me?

You would not believe how much power the supposed “fringe” in the Israeli far-right wields in Washington, either. There is a seriously unholy alliance right now between Israeli bigots in their military-industrial complex and American bigots in ours. Really hateful, unhinged, racist people.

Actually, instead - tell me why you choose to be a bully.

Tell me all about why you think it’s okay to abuse gamers.

Tell me why you think it’s okay to be shitty to other people.

As we are talking about welfare fraud in the *millions of dollars*, it is reasonable to state that your snarky dismissal of the problem is in fact part of the problem...

A “cultish” bunch of Orthodox Jews in Jersey just got arrested for running one of the biggest welfare frauds in American history, bilking a few million out of various state apparati. This is presumably among the responses.
