End religious tax exemptions. At this point, they can’t stop themselves from crossing the line. Just accept the reality they are going to be political and tax them like any other business.

I also believe you are a liar now. It’s all in text.

The feeling is mutual.

The article is attempting to move the established goal posts for expectations. Stop shilling for these guys. You don’t need to carry their water. The devs know this, which is why they’ve kept pace. They’re just bitching about having to.

It’s so unreasonable yet we do it. Woe is us.

I wrote them out and you made up something different. Fuck man. How many times do I gotta break it down? You not reading didn’t make my words not exist. This is like… common stuff. This whole argument is making sense now…

OR you are stupid. I’m just not gonna sugercoat it by pretending adding “gamer” to “brain rot” means anything but you exposing your bias.

If you wanna call me stupid, just do that. Don’t tell on yourself.

A gamer is the target audience of the article and this community.

I did write my expectations. So why was that your response? You called expecting the norm illogical. I take it back. You’re just unrealistic and assume everyone else should be too.

You made up what my expectations were then argued against that instead of reality. Keep shilling though.

But my expectations match the norm! You are stupid.

No need to make things up. My expectation is what we get most of the time. You’re the weirdo acting like it’s not. This article is just a developer trying to move the goal posts of expectations yet again.

Like how much of a cuck for these businesses do you want to be?

It’s not illogical to expect a developer to follow the basic standards of the industry they opted into. It would be illogical to declare them the exception.

Small teams drop regular media and content updates all the time without people dying at their desks. The conversation of their working conditions is between them and their bosses (maybe the state), and not their customers.

Naw screw that. Don’t label it early access if you don’t plan to update it from its current state at a rate that the majority of your fan base expects.

That said the dev in this article has provided 3 updates in 3 months. They’re totally fine by the expectations of all but the most unreasonable people.

It’s not expecting a complete package at the time of purchase. It’s expecting one in due time with your support.

What you are describing is a game outside of early access.

Don’t take early access money if you don’t plan to be giving frequent updates. It’s the nature of the beast.

People don’t expect constant updates from pokemon because when you buy it, it’s “a complete game”. They may drop patches and add content but it’s not expected the way it is from a game supposedly in active development like an early access game is.

There used to be a an armed security guard that would pick up the money from the Starbucks across the street from my last job that gave me the same impression as this little guard.

He was 400lbs+ and I always thought “If something happens to this guard he’s not chasing anyone down. He’s gonna shoot em.” Tiny guards make me think the same. I hope she doesn’t have a gun.

Actually the shooting at gay night clubs in the states are usually not white Christians. The most famous to me was the Pulse night club shooting by Omar Mateen, an Islamic extremist.

I think it’s safe to say that anyone attacking the LGBTQ community is a religious extremist of some variety though.

Your unwillingness to read the link you post while asserting children are illiterate, is both tragic and funny.

And that you then act like everyone else is silly for countering you? Go find a bridge, troll.

thank mr skeltal

The standard for a Mary Sue character has gone way up too. The Japanese really figured out the formula with isikais where the protagonist is almost always good at everything or OP in some way, but the writing/world building is better. There are enough gems amongst the garbage that people know what a good one should contain now.

You’ve just misunderstood what freedom of speech is. The government won’t jail you for your opinions. You can say whatever you want that isn’t a threat or call to violence.

Let’s be real though. That’s why people get to call you names when they disagree with you. They also have that same protected speech.

Protesting is a thing you are doing while exercising your free speech. However, you can be doing 2 things at once. Exercising your free speech while committing the crime of trespassing, etc. That one right doesn’t make you legally immune to anything else you’re doing.

Of course, people commit crimes while protesting to give their protest some teeth, and in some cases to bring attention to the law they might be protesting. But you should be prepared to be fined and arrested during spicy protests. People sitting in the road acting shocked they get hit and dragged away just make me feel like I’m looking at too many shocked Pikachus. You should expect it. That’s why you are there. If you didn’t face violence you aren’t really showing how strongly you feel. That’s what it means to stand against opposition.

Or, the lazier method would be they just don’t throw away their first pours which are full of methanol and so 3 or 4 bottles from each batch are poison. This can easily happen with someone who just doesn’t know what they are doing trying to not waste product.

The simplicity of that explanation makes it feel more likely to me.
