This sort of thing happens all the time, good intentions getting twisted over time.

Iirc the reason you’re not allowed to depict Muhammad, for example, was because Muhammad didn’t want pictures of to be used to worship him. He didn’t want to be deified basically.

Cut to today and his followers will literally kill anyone that even tries, even those outside of the religion, due to their worship of Muhammad, something that he clearly never would have wanted. It literally goes against the reason he had the rule in the first place.

It absolutely can happen on such short time scales. Regardless, it’s also been hundreds of years.

No

True, but it’s not just clueless. It’s malicious too.

I’ll never forget how they originally introduced paid modding through Steam, then apologized when people got mad, only to bring it back with the Creation Club years later when the anger died down.

They literally only apologized so they could calm people down and do it again later - it was a flat out lie. They tried to justify it with Pete Hynes arguing with people on Twitter, swearing up and down that CC content were “mini-dlcs”, not mods, so they actually upheld their promise. It was a bs excuse.

But at least they had an excuse. Recently they straight up allowed paid mods on their store, without excuses, dropping the mask entirely. Proving once and for all that their apology meant nothing and that they’d monetize the modding scene no matter what.

And let’s not forget Fallout 76 and all the shady shit surrounding that…

Microsoft was massive back then too and interacted with a lot of various studios. They notoriously forced Valve to charge money for their free Left 4 Dead dlc because they thought it would set a bad precedent.

So I wouldn’t be surprised if some Microsoft employee inspired the horse armor dlc.

This really is the year of the douche and the turd sandwich

I mean I live in CT, and technically I have wolves and bears, but neither are going to appear under my toilet paper

I’ve never been more glad that I don’t live in Australia than right now

Eh, the inflation argument never moved me for a variety of reasons. But either way, if that’s true then the first part of my comment applies.

Depends on if the publisher is scummy or not. BG3 and Elden Ring were $60.

Even then tho, this game was $60 back in 2010. Releasing for the same price 14 years later is insane, not even EA would pull that.

A 14 year old game releases at full price. God Nintendo is the worst

What a surprise.

Just wanted to say that while I agree with the spirit of your comment, there are so many Nintendo first party titles that barely hit 30 fps, that a power bump would be nice.

I’m not expecting 4k 144 fps, but just hitting a consistent 30 (or call me crazy, 60) would make me very happy. Playing Xenoblade at sub 720p, or Tears of the Kingdom at less than 30, is just unacceptable imo.

I don’t even care about a Switch 2, just give me a Switch Pro or something, something that can play all the available games well.

I think this is just porn

Don’t tease me

Idk I’d love Summer if it was cold like Winter

Totally agree, tbh I even felt 7 was a bit too high. But people were pissed that it was that low.

Dunkey actually made a great video showing how any game that gets below an 8 gets slammed, regardless of the title. Was kind of funny tbh, albeit a little sad.

They thought 7 was too low. And I totally agree with you, I would’ve given it like a 6 or 5.
