This is how we get nowhere. Anyone who has any power or voice to speak out on wealth inequality will be wealthy. Always been that way.

There is nothing wrong with housing people. What is wrong is bulldozing them out of the way. Its your problem, deal with it.

Nintendo is super greedy for sure. And out of touch, they've been like that and getting worse. But the one thing the corporate side does better than anything else is understanding how to cultivate these teams to make extraordinary games. Sony used to be able to do it too, but not as much nowadays.

Well, I spent longer than 2 seconds Googling him, unlike you. Hes said plenty condemning the Holocaust. Who doesn't condemn the Holocaust? Antisemites are usually super right wing and deny the Holocaust, very very few say it was a good thing. Its a bit obvious.

An actual antisemite or just critical of Israel?

Thats a super villain line if Ive ever heard one.

But fr dude dark humour is fine, Ive written stuff thats covered in it and have not received any backlash. You just have to be extra careful how you navigate it.

I think he realized hes in the wrong and it wasn't a very good joke

So that gif you sent is how you feel? Interesting

Okay? Sorry about your Grandma, I guess?

You just said "you wouldn't be able to handle a Jimmy Carr show" so are you impersonating him or Stephen Miller?
June 11, 2025 at 6:09 PM
Jimmy Carr is nothing, you can watch that with your grandma. You're not Jimmy Carr, my dude. You can’t pull it off.

Complaining about people being offended is so 2015. There are real bad things happening in the world. Grow up and have a bit of sensitivity.
June 11, 2025 at 5:56 PM
I can't put myself in his shoes, dealing with that and being from there. That's complicated. Though I hope everybody should see what is happening for what it is and work to put an end to it.

Yes, I know them. I don't have a subscription but Ive seen the quote in this. The inspiration as he put it is from a memory where he was reflecting on the vengeful gut reaction he had against something that happened. I wish he was more reflective on how that is exactly what the Israel gov. Is doing.
May 20, 2025 at 5:29 AM
Yeah dude I know all this, Im talking about the themes of the game as it is, not Neil.
May 20, 2025 at 5:27 AM
Its not zionist, just a bad direct parallel to Israel-Palestine if you wish to take it that way. Mostly because the groups in the game are in a mutual terf war, not an apartheid state.

The sentiment of the games message goes against what Israel is currently doing.

Agreed. I liked the new scenes with Isaac in the last episode. But then the museum scene was... very odd.
May 5, 2025 at 7:22 AM
Yes, its a videogame and a show at the end of the day. Most of the time, we can't even tell why we like one thing more than the other, we just do.
April 24, 2025 at 7:15 AM
Who are simply never going to fuck with what the story is going for. Never have I ever seen people so angry over a characters death, its beyond me. But I think the game did a better job pushing that gut punch to the max. Show was still incredibly done, but lost some of the confidence.
April 23, 2025 at 5:50 PM
Keeping the mystery. Right now, Abby feels one note. Now, what we lose is the mystery. Why did these people do it? In the show, as it is now, theres pretty much no narrative hook except wanting Ellie to get her revenge.

The show just feels like its apologizing to much. Apologizing to people (4/?)

What it wants to achieve. People are still furious they killed Joel, so it didn't soften the blow at all. Even if you know why shes doing it, shes still an unknown. The game actually does a better job of connecting you to Abby by focusing all the time it has on her relationships and (3/?)
April 23, 2025 at 5:44 PM
Like the way Joel's name is revealed in the game still makes sense. What are the chances some girl you save the life of happens to be on a cross country revenge plot to take you out? As well, revealing Abbys intentions early and having her monologue for so long... I don't think it achieves (2/?)
April 23, 2025 at 5:43 PM
Understandable. Those are all writing related though, not really directing. I think the directing of the scene in the game was better - had a better sense of perspective and was paced better.

I also personally didn't care for the narrative changes. Some of them felt a bit pointless (1/?)
