Yep, we need proportional representation. And Labour won’t do anything about it because they benefit from it.

You want to be like America? Because a two party system where the right party keeps going right and the left party, which is already right of centre, follows them to court their voters is how we get there.

We have two parties. One getting more and more extreme and one that’s letting them, just like in America. People are severely underestimating how dangerous this is and if you’ve paid any attention whatsoever over the last decade and a half is should be painfully obvious that we are actually tied to America by outside influences and that connection is slowly pulling us off the fascist cliff after them.

Trump supports Israel’s “war against terror.” He has said so. His supporters do too. Nikki Haley wrote “finish them” or something on a missile whilst in Israel. Trump is wholeheartedly in support of this genocide and will definitely never set any kind of red lines around it. Biden is shit but trump is a whole sewer worth.

I’ve never had so much interest evaporate so quickly, I’m still sad I won’t be playing the rest of the game. What a fuck up.

God, I was absolutely loving Observer until I hit the generic “helpless whilst instakill monster hunts you, hide and run” bullshit started. Ruined the whole game for me.

I wouldn’t put Cillian Murphy even close to the same level as Keanu, who is universally recognised simply by his first name.

Vaas is the best FC villain, but then he dies in a quick time even (if I remember right?) before the end and you’re stuck with someone poor. Pagan Min was engaging enough and that game had the coolest setting and an amazing hand crossbow. FC5’s villains really worked for me, so I prefer those. The perfect FarcFry is, in fact, a combination of elements from these games, modernised. Instead Ubi is homogenising it into Assassin’s Cry.

This is stupid but thanks for working on those games, I love all of them. You didn’t work on 6? So you left and the series instantly fell apart? Clearly they should’ve kept you on!

You’re saying this like the reason everyone was pissed off about cyberpunk was because of anything other than it not being finished. STILL.

I didn’t say all directors come across that way, I said visionary creators do.

It’s been around since the 80s, we already know long term outcomes.

That’s just always online. Live Service is milking customers for more money on top of the already full priced game, because just releasing a product that’s good and is the best selling game of that year wasn’t profitable enough for the vampires at the top of the company.

I’m not talking for anyone, so you seem to have gotten a little lost again. It’s ok, go back and re-read, do it slowly and sound the hard words out loud so you can work out what they are. Maybe you’ll extract some of the actual meaning from the word, then you can finally make a comment that actually follows a conversation instead of this weird straw man about someone “not made for the internet.”

And dude, the conversations I’m responding to are literally right there above my comments, where is it you think that stupid line of thought is going? Everyone can see what you said. Are you struggling with object permanence as well?

That isn’t what I said at all, but I can’t expect you to understand that I suppose. What I actually said was that if you were even slightly smarter you be so embarrassed by them that you’d delete your comments. Not sure why you think I’d want them deleted, the longer they’re here the more embarrassing it is. Or would be, if you weren’t so dense.

Practice some reading comprehension, judging by your comments you should start with Mr Men books, that’ll be about the right level for you.

If ignorance is bliss you must be literally the happiest being in all of existence. If you were even a touch smarter you’d be embarrassed enough by this exchange you’re losing to delete your comments, but you’re not.

That first paragraph is the most cringe inducing thing I’ve ever read. If you had written guttural sounds and whines you’d have sounded less stupid. Go and learn something you embarrassment.

Pretty clear that I was directly answering what you said.

PSVR1 does have Skyrim VR funnily enough.

I mean personal preference is one thing, whilst issues are another. It doesn’t aim to not be violent or not use plenty of cutscenes.

Yeah, Druckmann is a visionary creator, they all sound like that, just gotta put up with it really.

You don’t think the body count reinforces revenge being bad? With the looks of terror on their faces as Ellie slices their throat, the cries of “Sheila!” or whatever when you blow Sheila or whatever up, the dogs whining at their dead owners’ sides, seems to me that all of this feeds into revenge being bad. You see the cost of those actions too, whole settlement aflame as Ellie hunts down Abby, slaughtering everyone in her way whilst Abby is trying to walk away from it.

You’re a killing machine in that game, but everywhere you go the violence is always extremely messy, upsetting, and visceral, and Ellie has pretty severe reactions to it as well in cutscenes. Both Ellie and Abby even say hateful and petty things under her breath whilst you’re taking them out, hardly presenting them in the best light whilst they’re slaughtering people in their pursuit of revenge. Enemies beg for their life when you grab them, Ellie has to be talked down from murdering a pregnant woman. At one point she tortured, brutally, a woman who looks a bit like Dina. I’m not sure the ludo-narrative dissonance argument applies here, surprisingly, despite basically being Rambo from a gameplay perspective.

Now Uncharted? I love those games, but you destroy legions worth of bad guys, it’s ridiculous, and in a serious narrative Drake’s charming affableness whilst doing it would have to be a cover for a full on psychopath or something. There aren’t many action games, especially shooting, where this argument doesn’t apply really. It’s just somewhere you need to suspend your disbelief. That or only play games where you kill a reasonable amount of people? What would that be? 15? Even that seems high, but 12 hour game a game where you only defeat 15 people isn’t an action game.

We can see why.
