thats great
the reboot is still probably most fans entry point to the franchise and frame of reference for discussing it, especially during a discussion about Bethesda
that is not any kind of dig at the older games, the quality of them is entirely irrelevant to the point i was making
you dont need to come to the defense of them, especially by venting about games that i also do not care about

the difference is that discussions about robocop are exclusively about the original
if youre convinced the wolfenstein and doom reboots have the same impact and relevance as robocop (2014) youre entirely allowed to stay that way, im not gonna try and shake you out of it

Dude! The original ones were cultural touchstones in a market that wasn’t yet oversaturated. They literally invented and defined the whole genre!
the original ones were undoubtedly MUCH more popular in their time.
i mean sure, but that also doesnt matter to the point i was making
More people might be playing the new ones NOW
which is why most folks are probably not talking about the old games when they say they like wolfenstein and doom

im so glad that blizzards internal culture and conduct align with microsofts values enough for them to skip the hands-on approach theyve shown with other subsidiaries

sorry, but arent the crimes of their fathers the sole basis for our worshipping them, allowing tbem political power and sending the pricks millions upon millions of tax payer pounds?
you dont reckon its a little disingenuous to complain about people shitting on their heritage when said heritage is the entire argument for their existence

if rehabilitation is possible, there is no real benefit to society to just keep folks in prison indefinitely, and in fact refusing to accept change for the better disincentivises folks from doing so

besides this just being false, her being considered an easy target is still pretty unambiguously influenced by society's unfavourable view of trans folks

this isnt false, but it still feels a bit off to frame the female murderer as being way more accepting of trans folks

Eye for an eye has always been a deterrent for most.
this is why countries and states that allow execution invariably have lower crime rates
Cuz that’s the definition of justice when he killed someone.
i think justice is when my family doesnt get murdered in the first place because of policies that actually reduce crime, im quirky like that

can you reasonably call holding your breath voluntary in this situation? i dont think my holding my breath if someone holds my head underwater is a particularly conscious decision

eating healthier works
oh yea?? why is my leukaemia not fixed by it then
that is the level folks are arguing at when they say voting doesnt work
voting works, voting does do something, it just isnt a fix to every political issue or a heavy handed enough approach by itself
But don’t worry, it’s already too late: if anything, you’ll be happier if you keep your blinders
the irony of losers pushing defeatist cynicism while complaining that 'go vote!!' does nothing would be funnier if it didnt come with this shit eating smug false sense of superiority
