We've been enemies with mohammadans for two centuries.
About 7x longer than that.
in a world that looks like a corrupt Adobe InDesign doc.
This is interesting in small doses. If I wanted a corpo dystopia without going the usual cyberpunk style, it fits. Would make a good level.
But it's just an assault on the retinas. Do I want to spend 30 mins with johhny silverhand infiltrating and destroying this corp? Yeah. Do I want to play it for hours upon hours? Absolutely fucking not.
I imagine that even of those who do appreciate it, a fair chunk of us appreciate it at a distance.

I’d rather listen to a liberal woman at this point. Thanks.
previous wave of criminal eastern europeans and yeah, turkish, it's not that odd. It's just overshadowed by the paki pedo gangs. But they're still there too, running the garbage scams and doing the trafficking.
People don't understand how much hate and resentment many Indians have against the west. They weren't finished being uplifted by the british, not like Singapore or something, no, they were still in the resist violently with terrorism stage, and they haven't let that blood fued go just because of a few generations. If anything, with rising indian pride being pushed, they are stoking those flames.
They aren't doing it because they are tired and cold, they're doing it to make you tired and cold.
it was a socialist revolution
they should.
The issue is that one side always sees it can gain and maintain power by expanding it out just a little bit more.
Letting 16 year olds and illegals vote was inevitable.
Why does the entire West have a civilisational-ending problem with... women voting...

Starving it hasn't worked.

no you're right. They're terrible games and I've been saying they are overrated for ages. Decent enough world and ost, but the mechanics/controls and balancing are just completely awful. And with good mod support. Which is what saves it and why them making an online-only thing was retarded.
What is the usual churn? Don't a lot of them usually get laid off after the project is done?
1/3 does seem very high, I just wanna know if it's up from a natural 25%, or a natural 10%
I mean, show me the racially ambiguous picture?
this guy is white
The lead though? Atticus?

Out in the sun, during summer, Mediterranean at best. Maybe. Which is why I say ambiguous.
They probably went with the broccoli cut because that's popular now among young dudes
Apparently not popular enough to get people to play and stay.

you're right.
Worst thing is I actually went and searched how to spell that one then it got lost by the time I came back to type the comment. Thought I had written extant.
it references a still existent dog breed.
It wasn’t concord or dust born tier ultra woke, but the main character was a racial ambiguous broccoli sidecut nu-male.
Just because it wasn’t a hamplanet zim/zer doesn’t mean people didn’t smell the woke. It wasn’t unreasonable
Rumours of a Titanfall sequel swirl, a highly anticipated somewhat cult game. For those of us who played it and titanfall 2, yeah 2 may well be the best game to exist.
With those rumours floating around. At the end of the game awards, an important slot, Geoff gets up to announcing something special, a new fps, "releasing in just a month, and from the team that brought you titanfall 2". The hype is real!? Could it finally be? After all these years?! And then it cuts to reveal the most generic hero shooter you've ever seen complete with vaguely ethnic main character man with that sidecut. It was even called highguard. Overwatch. High=over, guard=watch.
It wasn't concord bad, that at least was funny. This was more boring. In the designs, and in the gameplay by all accounts, huge prep time, and it was 3v3 on massive maps making it drag.
I think this might be unique to you and your brother mate.
contrarian reaction slop.
I've got some theories.
Music genres in top popular spots generally have 1-2 gen lifespan. And then it's kept in stasis by the people who experienced it when they were 14-24, then their tastes freeze.
Funk died, Punk died, Disco died, grunge died, emo died, Rap is finally dying.
As they die, they can spawn subgenres and subtypes that if they become popular enough, replace the old and give it a few more years or even a whole 2nd run, but the genre as a whole is still doomed to eventual death. It's the way of the world. Rock had a few good waves maybe, or is it just such a broad term that we're looking at waves of essentially a different thing, like with pop. Either way, it's just that rock had it's time, that's all there is to it.
There's other patterns, the genres get gentrified by normies, corporatized, the old guard is chased out, the music itself gets sanitised for public consumption, then stops being cool (we're all familiar with that trend in media). At the same time, you get this pattern where there are niches doing the exact opposite, nasal gazing from up their own arses, just pushing weird technically complex stuff that is hard to listen-to without spending 3 years weaning yourself onto it and acquiring a taste for it, and it just keeps spiralling into further experimentation and complexity, they get artsy and pretensious about it. Which also gives it a bad name.
You're also seeing a massive streaming lead diversification in music. You can now easily go down whatever rabbit hole you want, while tv and radio are at an all time low. I want to go down some energetic dark-synth line or big-band stuff? I can, with almost no effort. And soon I'll be able to just generate it on demand. I don't like the sound of ai stuff atm, but it's what the young are hearing and being exposed to. Like with mp3s for us, the issues with that sound is what they end up actually liking, the general pop will probably like mushy lyrics and static in the high end that ai tends to make, while the more dedicated music fans will all each be off in their own little subgenres, far more than was possible before.
All the big old oak trees are dying, being replaced with a field of 1000 different shrubs, grasses and flowers.
If you were in grade school in the 2000s, you were liking music from the 70s, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin - through the 90s.
Yeah I like pink floyd, because it's what my dad would always put on. And of the 2 tv channels and 4 (basically) radio channels, he'd have that stuff on. That's not a thing or a constraint anymore.
Also, the facebook phenomena. Grandma is on facebook, and it is associated with grandma and grandpa. Boomers are uncool, and so therefore is their music. How many are going to enjoy going to see AC/DC struggle around on stage today, next to more boomers as compared to some scene where it's all their same aged peers. Which is my final point, the live performances now, they aren't what they used to be.
When done well, the most effective of the rules for radicals.
Well either you're wrong or there are a lot of basketcases to make this the number 1 use already.
Therapy is a 'sacrament' of the left now.
I might not have either.
I don't let the woke communists dictate my language, even in reaction because that still gives them control over me. I grew up not capitalising either, which is probably an artefact of the 90s race-blindness nonsense. But as it is the way I grew up, unless it's traditional, I'm unlikely to change.
How did they do it pre enlightenment?
There’s a middle ground to be found. Ever watched the room? It’s not just the bad acting, it’s the repeated overly long sex scenes.
I think anime breaks our conventions for it quite often. You get 20 action episodes then a sudden a gratuitous beach episode where some pervy 80 year old and/or the mc falls into the tits of a teen. That’s their culture so idc, but I don’t want that to become my culture.
Fan service can go too far and just be porn. I give the japs a pass, I just won’t engage with it, not my culture. But it doesn’t mean I want it everywhere in my culture and I certainly don’t want all the old classics made ‘adult’,
