You CAN do anything. Should you? No, not really. There are pretty constant references to very specific plot points of 2 and 3 in here.

On the eve of the successful creation of the games, Neo attempts to jump off of a building. He’s... not doing great in there.

Dream lives? The main villain states that in his new Matrix, the greater the human suffering, the more power they generate. So he has, naturally, amplified the suffering as high as he possibly can. This is also a completely unsubtle metaphor to the state of the current real world, which the Merovingian character…

There definitely is not room for both, Morpheus dies in a different way in the film vs the MMO.

Because the people who write thinkpieces don’t want to watch it, and the people who watch it don’t want to read thinkpieces. Pretty sure I’ve cracked the case.

No but really, the beta test (that you can’t even play anymore) of an unreleased game being one of your favorites is very dumb. I bet you’ll love the game! Award THE GAME something when it comes out, the test was nothing. Less than nothing, it was marketing.

Those games are PRETTY different from each other, so why do you think certain games in this list wouldn’t fit?

Krampus makes certain players enjoy the game less or not at all. That is why they don’t like it. It’s... not that complex?

It’s a commercial project. Literally a job. And yet, I never said he “owes” it to anyone. I never introduced that concept. You’re fixated on it because... you’re a hatefully strange person, I guess? “I hope a whole lot of people stay mad and disappointed rather than one guy do a good job on his famous commercial…

They’re a fan of his work, not of him as a person. Of course it’s going to cause problems when the series goes on a decade long hiatus. The only options there are: write off the series and leave him to be irrelevant as a public figure or wonder if the series will EVER complete. Your earlier post said “patience”. A…

I’ve never bought a Shark Card or an Overwatch loot box or a Halo Battle Pass. Did my actions stop anyone else from doing those things? Or whales from spending their entire paycheck on those things? Not doing it yourself doesn’t budge the needle AT ALL.

I don’t actually think you’re wrong about not caring how games look. As a personal preference, that’s fine. Demanding that other people see it your way and defending shit corpos over it is not fine. And this “I am a GAMER” stuff is sad, knock it off. We all play games here, it’s a meaningless statement. The vast…

Simulation games are niche. Forza Horizon is a much more mainstream game. The things I find bizarre, specifically, are the “this will teach you to be a REAL RACE DRIVER” focus of the last time around (something that would be feasible for maybe one out of every 5 million players) and the always online, for every mode…

Ah yes, “gamers”. A group who famously don’t care about graphics, art design, or picking very specific iterations of characters, even if others are very similar mechanically. This argument is very stupid, and I’m very tired of it. Yeah... the ART and the visual design is a part of the game and it does affect your…

“I get it, it sucks that once free stuff isn’t free, but the game itself is great and it’s free to play and none of this affects the game at all” Or how I learned to contradict my own bad argument in the same sentence I made it in. Yeah, it affects the game when your favorite armor now costs $10 when it used to be…

One player buying every cosmetic makes it worth their while for 100 customers who spend nothing on them. You cannot fight this by refusing to buy, and your smug and ignorant assertions won’t change that.

Gran Turismo is extremely more niche than Forza, mainly because they keep intentionally making the game design bizarre as heck.

Yeah, I have evidence: it’s called they sold games at the $60 price for two console generations and claimed to be making record profits. Think really hard, if the price was too low to keep up with costs, would they have done that? Did inflation only occur at the point where the Ps5 and Xbox Series X launched? Or are…

And the games also sell to a much larger audience and sell far more copies. How do you guys always show up with half of a math equation and think that’s smart?

I called it Cowboy Bebop LA because it’s in Live Action. Would you have preferred Cowboy Bebop (2021)? Your agonized reactions to abbreviations show that you are “a moron.” Or possibly “a literal child.”
