I generally believe in freedom of speech but if you start arguing "uh its not actually pedophilia if they're only 15" you should probably go straight to jail, I think we can probably all make an exception here

Nothing in Metroid really makes sense.

The bad guys are "space pirates" who don't really travel around space, don't really rob anybody, don't really attack ships, barely have ships of their own, and in fact are dinosaurs who don't seem to care about money?

Its just lip service.

People have been dreaming wistfully about a bounty hunter game (often set in star wars) for decades

A few have even tried it, but nothing has really come together to deliver

Imagine taking the Shadow of Mordor engine and making it a bounty hunter game, jeeze, slam dunk

PART of the problem is there's more orange than black in that chart now, but worse is that the last four years have each had more sets than the first 6 years of magic combined

That's the biggest problem. They've just pushed too much product to make more money each year. UB is only one part of that.

The doctor fighting dinosaurs is actually canon 😆

UB itself is one issue, but the bigger problem with Magic that UB is only accelerating is there's just too much Magic.

Used to bet we got 3 sets a year, 4 with the core set.

Now they release like 20 sets in a year. Its just way too many cards.
