Lol, they(chuds) already changed the face main character of Intergalactic and even gave her hair.

More proof they want her to look like a supermodel.

The horror…

The classic trait of a super model, having hair

I've researched, scouted, laid out, and prewritten everything for my suicide plan. I have almost exactly a month left to live and am fortunate that I live near several high bridges with railings you can get over and super-high success rates for jumpers. The ironic thing is that I'm finally making great progress in finally building the kind of life I've always dreamed of for decades, but I don't care any more and stuff like this thread and Era in general really helped me commit to ending myself. So thank you all.

This whole thread - Era in general, really - is making me consider suicide and view existence as a meaningless burden that's nothing but pain. Is that a normal response?

This thread legitimately has me like "Is ResetEra okay?"

I will at least offer the thought that if you don't feel like you're making progress in healing, consider shaking up your approach and/or methods of treatment. For almost a whole decade I was the type of person who easily could have made the opening post but I started taking prescribed ketamine in 2021 and have been feeling a weight off my shoulders since.

Well, look how that turned out. Who knew drugs will only make yer chest stick out for so long

It feels like there's a non-zero chance I'm going to be alive to see civilization start to collapse (and continue to degrade until I die). Any of the rest of ya'll feel this way? How are you mentally grappling with it? Am I way off base? Are there reasons to be optimistic?

In all seriousness, Christmas is usually a really bad time for people with mental health problems. 

While I usually find the reees' dooming and glooming pretty funny because it's usually baseless and purely for attention, these are probably the actually depressed ones coming out and they may well follow through.

Probably best to leave most of this on Reeesetera honestly.

At least it sounds there is legit ties with Nationalists:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/black-myth-wukong-studio-ceo-wrote-game-of-the-year-acceptance-speech-two-years-ago-questions-selection-criteria-of-the-game-awards.1061829/page-12#post-133019979

Welp. It's cringe-worthy, but there's not much to write home about, really. When it comes to cringeness, sterns from China manosphore gamer fury with Nationalist tint, on a scale of 1 to 10, this is about a 3.

For many Chinese male gamers, Wukong's loss of the major award at TGA represents yet another symbol of the oppression imposed by the West and its Alliance on the Chinese people.

An example of how far nationalists have pushed this game in China. Here's a clip from August 2024 in which a Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson responds to a question on the Chinese military's reaction to the Philippine Navy's "provocations".

The spokeperson answer:

"I am not sure whether you are aware that there is a Chinese-made game named Black Myth Wukong. I also watched a lot of shows about Wukong in my youth, so I'll just respond you with the lyrics of the song in it: We've smoothed out the obstacles to make an avenue; We've beaten the odds and we're on our way!"

This clip was posted by an account operated by China government.

This speech in the OP is also in similar style. It is a talk style that has been championed by the government from its establishment, and it is the preferred writing style that will result in a high score on school tests.

almost all of his complaints are due to the fact that a show is built around the most interesting moments of everybody's lives, for every episode you see there are probably 50 or 100 boring days where nothing of note happened and everything worked perfectly

the holodecks are probably in near constant use without issue, of course episodes where they break are going to be what we see rather than nothing interesting occurring

It all boils down to simple math really.
Our industrial civilization has never been, and can never be sustainable.

The best and most sobering lectures I have seen on the topics of exponential growth, overshoot and "energy bankruptcy" are these:

Arithmetic, Population and Energy - a talk by Al Bartlett:
- YouTube

How to Enjoy the End of the World - by Sid Smith:
- YouTube


Sid Smith also has an excellent ongoing series that expands upon his original talk:

It's hilarious how their every explanation for something they don't like is some kind of sinister conspiracy. "rogue employee" "someone there is taking advantage" "bad faith actors"

Also their constant belief that these giant corporations have every employee distracted by some other thing or operate like a school. Switch 2 is ramping up so clearly the guys whose job is purely the store are focused elsewhere. Miyamoto is parading around the office carrying the Switch 2 and everyone is going to watch. Then factor in how many people are still on break for the holidays.

At this point Israel and the West are just going through with it to set a precedence and when all Palestinians are dead (or crippled to the point where they might as well be dead), Israel just annexes the entire territory of Gaza. And thus Palestine will cease to exist.

It will be the most heinous, disgusting, evil crime in 21st century. And the US, Germany and others will let it happen, support it, and afterwards make bs claims about how this was okay.

I feel sick.

Do the Palestinians in the West Bank (50% of the Palestinian population, 94% of Palestine's land area) know they're not part of Palestine?

Fine fine. It is was bold of me to think Steam completely stopped. Though it sounds like whoever at Valve is behind that is being "smart" and going after pretty niche games. I do worry that a game I backed on Kickstarter could be facing such issues.

I’m sure it’s very classy and of age wholesome WLW content.

I’m going to be honest and say that I totally think is some random Campo Santo wokie screwing things at steam given that developers have complained about them being schizophrenic about the smut stuff.
