‘Weird, interesting guy in the pub’. I can’t think of a more apt compliment.

It upsets me that I thought this was an Onion headline.

Just clocked South of Midnight. Simple gameplay, linear design but great storytelling digging in to the folklore of the deep south which is almost never sen in games and absolutely sublime graphics.

Wtf is up with them? I did read your explanation a couple of weeks ago but you know, that was a couple of weeks ago!

We left nuanced discussion behind a while ago. Now if you are not 100% supporting and in lockstep with them you are ‘the enemy’ regardless of which side of a issue you fall on. Even by making the argument for grey areas and mutual respect you are aligning yourself with the other. It’s maddening.

More. Negative takes drive more engagement. Positive feedback won’t get most supporters of the premise past the headline and you will only get trolls and haters. Negative feedback draws the same trolls and haters but also draws in the supporters to defend their corner. It’s just a numbers game.
