Hopping back on here for a few days because my Reddit account got a 3 day suspension for something I posted in r/EnoughMuskSpam... No idea what it was because the comment got deleted but the automod said it was harassment so I'm inclined to believe it was bullshit

I’m glad this conversation is finally ****ing happening because the graphical fidelity arms race is the single most expensive thing involved in making games and it’s literally bankrupting people, for what?
Executives putting Back of the box thinking over creative innovation got us in this mess and creativity is the only thing that will get us out it.

Ai will not fix this industry either...

The gaming industry spent billions pursuing the idea that customers wanted realistic graphics. Did executives misread the market?

I think the Walmart video game website is good in that it pays people to write and bad in that it is totally anathema to a certain ineffable “spirit of games writing” that we are losing and which will never come from Walmart.

they made Gerald Witcher a girl in the new game, so I threw my Xbox out the window and it killed a small dog, and now everyone's mad at me for having an opinion

ppl need to stop getting so angry about how female protagonists in games look.

u don't hear anyone complaining about how the male char models look.

just play the game and have fun oh and realize these are fictional characters and even if they were real , they still wouldn't date you.

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.”

She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line.

By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year.

Numbers are fun.

I have been wracking my brains trying to come up with a single instance where privatizing a government service has ever either improved the service or saved any money at all.

Can anyone help me think of an example?

Back when I was a computer field tech and computer viruses were somewhat new, every single person with any problem whatsoever blamed it on a virus. Like, a floppy drive would be physically broken and they'd claim they had a virus. This is what's happening with the drones. Anything is a drone now.
