Remember when Threads released and there was a massive thread on there about how everyone was moving to Threads and it was going to be great? Then when anyone mentioned how Facebook/Zuck are almost certainly worse than anything Musk could do, they were shut down and told to shut the fuck up. 

I don't like Musk. Guy is a clown and has the dumbest ideas for Twitter. Just pure stupidity across the board. But anyone celebrating a government blocking Twitter is utterly insane. This is especially important in developing nations like Brazil, that have a high level of corruption in society. Twitter serves as an important tool for people to document the fucked up shit that is going on around them. When something fucked up happens anywhere in the world, you head to Twitter to see the people impacted by it reporting on it. You don't go to traditional media for that. Twitter allows you to see exactly what is going on, as it happens. If you are too much of a dumb cunt to tell between what is real and misinformation, that is on you.

Everything these guys pretend to know and repeat about israel and palestine comes from Twitter and a teenager dancing app. Now let’s say the government censors all that, deletes the apps for your country, and puts a fine on using a workaround. “They wouldn’t do that because we’re the good guys.” No abstraction to consider knock-on or second-order effects.

The problem is that we have way too many public servants and policy makers. The number of administrative staff in the collective west just exploded during COVID.
When you have so many bureaucrats, all they will do is regulate. An EU bureaucrat isn't going to pull up his chair and say: "You know what, lets deregulate some things" no he starts drafting a law to regulate the length of tea spoons and the corporations goon at the thought of pushing out the competition of home-made Etsy tea spoons.

Starting to experience longer queue times 😢

Yeah sadly my queues were definitely a bit longer today. And I wonder what the impact of the upcoming football season will have on the game here in the States. I say that as someone who will also be eyeball deep in way too much televised sports far too often.

It's just so ridiculous how much downright spite people have. People really will cut off their nose to spite their faces. Cause damn this game is ridiculously amazing and anyone who plays a serious breadth of games can realize this, but the denial of it is next level stuff. But instead of being open minded, closed-mindedness assumption is the name of the game today. And as I've said in here and around before, I myself am also guilty of this too.

When people say things like they "feel like they are taking crazy pills" in regards to the discourse and perception, well, it says a lot. Not about that person's judgement. No, it says a lot about the other people trying to assert influence and the things they are saying. It's incredibly shitty, because while art is of course subjective and people are free to feel any kind of way about things, this game's reception has been absolute horseshit of the highest degree.

"Don't believe your eyes and ears." x1000000000000000

I told someone this last night:

I don't and wouldn't spend a single second of my time, let alone a cent of my money, on something like 98% of F2P multiplayer games out there. That's how low I think of them.

But I'd spend $600+ to just play this one, singular game. Actually, that I'd go even further, I'd pay $2000+ USD to exclusively play this game. That's how high quality I think this is; I value it to that degree in just this short amount of time playing (about 60 total hours now across the Open Beta and retail).

I go where the games I want to play are, and games I value, I spend my money. And I am willing to spend quite a bit of it for things I think are genuinely special and quality. And I am also extremely exclusive with what time and money I spend on video games too, and this game is worth all the time, and all the money.

All of this is said as someone who owns all current console hardware, many complete sets of legacy console hardware, a PC, and a smartphone. I've played quite a bit of games in my time.

So all this talk around this game is cute af to me.

also with people there talking about their queue times and such, presumably actually playing, it's crazy to think that resetera could legitimately be 5 to 10% of the entire playerbase right now

Explains why their boycotts don’t work. They are just the equivalent of a small bingo hall in Philadelphia acting like they are the center of the universe, when they are nothing but a single drop in the bucket of history.

I remember there were two hot actresses, one of them basically naked in some kind of fishnet dress, and someone got banned "objectifying commentary" just for saying they were hot.

My turn to use the new Sony crybaby GIF. Some replies in the Concord has only sold 25,000 units thread (based, not on facts like the IGN article, but their feeeelings):

Not really imo, bad estimates

Nah no way, it has to be at least 100/150k units, there's no way it's selling worse than indies nobody has heard about

I don't believe it is that low because that would be an unheard of disaster for a Sony first party game

It's no doubt a sales failure but I doubt it sold that low.

Certainly, the most interest I'm seeing in the game is from people who seem to hate PlayStation and want to dance on its grave

Tough women that don't look like blobs. UFC champs





And here's Amanda not giving a fuck about the male gaze. And she's a real lesbian married to another female fighter.



These are all women capable of busting your orbital if they had a problem with how you looked at them. 

Bonus:
Ailín Pérez is known for her twerking

[DocWager]

Remember when they used to ban people for “Conspiracy”? Now literally the only thing they mostly ban people for is “Dismissing Concerns”, sexually “Objectifying”(Only women by the way unless you are trans objectifying women), and “downplaying”.

User banned (permanent): Troll account

Or you could ignore me and be done with it, I'm not obligated to conform to your opinions. If you want to talk about the game exclusively with other fans of it, maybe consider Discord?

  
to this banned poster for posting the following gif in response to one of SunnyD's effusive praise posts:

Wait, he wasn't banned for the gif?  The gif made me think SunnyD was slobbing on Sony's knob 

[BananaBlast]

Wait, he wasn't banned for the gif?

Nope, they got him for being a new account, talking shit about their holy woke cow Concord, and for DARING to literally say "I have a different opinion than you and don't have to conform to yours". The horror!

The gif made me think SunnyD was slobbing on Sony's knob 

Well I interpreted that .gif as SunnyD pretending to enjoy concord, as in the Professor pretending to enjoy the stale peas

[DocWager]

Which come on, that’s gotta be considered “Positive Trolling”. Honestly see that for games like Stellar Blade, and Black Myth. But this one is taking it to the extreme with bullshit like “Defining game of the PS5”. Yeah sure, but maybe for the wrong the reasons.

[DocWager]

Double post

[Snoopy]

I was genuinely gutted when Nunez retired. I was hoping she'd sign up for a 3rd fight with Valentina before she left but sadly nope.

Vima is my current fave.



She's a good fighter and she looks like Franklin's twin

Apparently, no one has heard of Concord either.

Which shouldn't be possible, since ~2 million people watched the SoP from 3 months ago.

Two months ago in the DrDisrespect Drama thread, someone got banned for "conspiracy theorizing" just because the user said it was odd that he was able to settle with a big payout, and the possibility of Twitch potentially doing something unlawful on their end like snooping on his private messages.

100% valid take, but anything other than blind sperging was wrongthink to the Ree mods.

99% sure that Crossing Eden hasn't touched Concord. He's just absolutely desperate to defend the game because a woke game failing ruins his worldview. For some reason he's also a huge defender of GAAS games.
