Comparing it to Benghazi is crass and insensitive. 9/11 would've been better.

I think my problem with the "alt-left" is that while of course the movie business, videogame business and what have you are shitty to women and at depicting them most of the time, and you'd have to be dense to argue otherwise, online slacktivism is rather stupid and pointless. My theory is that the reason we hear about problematic stuff in media more often (other than the fact that the Internet gives everybody a platform for their own views) is the fact that most of what people do is consume media. They don't vote outside of presidential elections, they don't spend a week at homeless shelter, they don't give back in general.

Yeah and I suspect it drives a bit of the excessive investment in media displayed in geek circles. People want to be a positive force in the world but that's literally the only way they know how and they end up ascribing inflated importance to their hobbies. I'm very much guilty of that and I fit that profile, to be fair, I've been struggling over doing something to "give back" and I know I should just stop sitting on my hands and do it.

People no longer define themselves by their accomplishments and careers but by what they like to watch on TV.  It's a very boring life so they have to spice things up by actively surveilling and policing how others consume media.  One day it will hit them in their 40s or 50s that they spent their lives binge watching TV shows and suddenly gargling buckshot seems like a palatable option for them.

To be fair, career and trade wasn't exactly a panacea either and I say that as someone who currently have a job from which I extract some personal satisfaction and let me effect (at a modest position) things meaningfully.

Maybe they were right and we should all do some forced labour in factories and fields to gain some perspective. We're a Don Quixote generation.

Alt-left is a bad term with no consistency in how it is used other than having negative connotations. If anything the representation-above-all types are reflecting a quite mainstream current in the modern center-left of favoring a superficial diversity that doesn't question underlying dynamics of power.

Yeah, the more I think on it, what I am mostly describing is not so much a movement as what I am seeing from those on the left in the younger generation. Some of their habits and approaches to politics.

Not that elements of this didn't exist ten years ago but it just seems to be growing in prominence and is more reflective in place like GAF.

Don't buy games until they're £5 or less on a steam sale or £10 or less on a PSN sale.

At this point quality is generally known and I'm never disappointed and I have such a massive backlog I could not give less of a shit about waiting.

Sure, you're never disappointed at the cost of devaluing what you feel games are worth. Personally, I wouldn't call that a good tradeoff

no mans sky fanboys trawling the bottom of the barrel. sad. probably gonna start making up their own meta gameplay rules to extend the actual fun while waiting for hello games to add features they forgot to add the first go around, because obviously if the could barely fart out a skeleton of a game after a few years, certainly they can revamp entire gameplay systems and add complex mechanics in a couple of weeks.

If you dumped 50 fucking hours into a game hoping for it to get good, you are an idiot. At that point, your right to a return should be forfeit. He played the game for FIFTY hours! You couldnt tell if the game was good or not in the first, I dunno, ten hours? And that's being generous. That's like trying to return a pair of worn underwear to a store.

It's more like if you were eating a meal at a restaurant, and it tasted... off. And you knew it tasted off, but you kind of kept going because you were hungry, and you've been waiting for the meal for a long time. And you don't want to cause a scene. Then, as you're standing up, someone yells "They're cooking with rats!" and you look into the kitchen and see them skinning rats for all the meat in your meal.

Then you go to the kitchen to see what the hell is up before you vomit, and the entire staff runs away so you can't question them, and it turns out their sink doesn't even work so they weren't even washing their hands. The only person left in the building is a confused looking waiter, whom you must demand a refund from.

:dead

Is getting a refund after 50 hours legit ? Maybe not. The salient fact tho is that some of those are indeed granted by Steam and Sony despite being well beyond any obligations they have to their customers, as far as I understand*. Tells me they reckon the game is a bit of a broken mess and / or not what was advertised (maybe to the point of a potential legal action ?).

* They may only be complying to local law I guess ? But is seems they are refunding US purchases as well.

Eh, I think he has a legitimate grievance, the game began fucking up royally 40 or so hours in. He said he actually liked the game for the most part but it just stopped working after he finally left the first system.

Maybe. But either way, he got more hours out of it than most entertainment mediums provide on average. Most games don't have 50 hours of replay value. An argument can be made that he got $60 worth of gameplay out of it and his grace period for returning it is over.

Hahah, those people own their own houses. Not like me, I rent an apartment in downtown. I'm much more real than those phonies.

EDIT: lol. Actual final post as of now. "Give me an apartment in a thriving city over a big ass house"

I am sorry you bought that McMansion, man.

Would you look at those plebs in those McMansions? Their windows aren't symmetrical. And those Corinthian columns don't even go with the Ionic cornice, would you believe that?
