You’re a fucking embarrassment.

Hmm, putting a lot of narrative spin on my pretty straightforward statement.

But they’re not assigned to Reddit, they’ve been assigned to Lemmy.

Clean my ass

All I have to say is that I sincerely doubt that From Software and MiHoYo were looking at H:ZD when they made their very successful open world games. That’s my only point, you are allowed to have your opinions about H:ZD - I’m not saying that you’re wrong.

BotW completely changed the open world landscape. Yes it was a bad Zelda game, it was by no means a mediocre game. That first experience is fucking magical, and has been recreated to great effect in Elden Ring and Genshin Impact (I shouldn’t need to point out how popular both of those games are).

You can dislike that it was a bad Zelda game. Calling it mediocre is just patently false. Granted, yes - I’ve called the game ‘Horizon: Zero Awards’ because it definitely should have won at least something. However, it was not more impactful than BotW.

Some people like to see the things they spend time on finished.

How would you put ‘person who tested various diets and eating habits for the best possible shit to freeze and pick through ice with’ on a resume?

I think their point is that if the people making the games were given fair compensation that they would be more willing to sacrifice IP rights.

I don’t see what makes them think that other than their own personal feelings on the matter, but I think that’s the message.

You can’t cook chicken with math, it’s out of this guys wheelhouse

Hmm, I was going to say there’s a chance you survive biting lava - but technically there’s also a chance you survive biting something poisonous.

So yeah, flawless logic. The most poisonous and venemous things happen to be the pure unbridled power of the earth and 900lbs of muscle and hungry.

Maybe he should try his hand at teaching too, it seems like he’s got a unique skill for simplifying complicated concepts.

People don’t like the things they believe to be challenged, and many people fail to recognize what is a belief and what is a fact.

It’s the problem with knowing enough to not know how little you actually do (know).

Considering how much the Cash version changed the meaning and vibe of the song, yeah this is canon now.

You can certainly make an argument for young kids, i.e. teaching fractions and literally how to count (counting seconds).

Teenagers? No, not really. They’ll all have phones or something to tell the time by a certain age and hopefully they know their fractions / how to count. It might as well just be digital at that point.

Unless you’re on the volcano that death will be a very slow one.

A strawman that may actually be true, given how much poison the rich have dumped into our environment.

It’s like I’m having a stroke, but without the smell of burnt toast.

Testing? You expect this person to consider testing?

That’s an extra step that will realistically lead to more work! That’s outrageous, can’t have that. Just won’t do.

Then why is this hard to understand?
