Yeah, it's a really shitty pattern. Unfortunate, I was kinda looking forward to Marathon despite the drama.

Oh! Lookie here, a fascist for breakfast. My day is off to a lovely start.

The difference is in the history. America has NEVER been honest about its origins. No other modern nation was built on slavery like we were. Britain abolished it decades before America. And after WWII, they gave up the rest of their colonies because it was the right thing to do. That's when the American Empire took off. Naval bases in every country. Global watchdog, above the laws everyone else has to follow.

America? It only stopped genociding Indians when they were such a small population that they couldn't pose a threat to the white man, and it still fucks them over every chance it can. Edit: oh yeah, and then it painted them as villains in cowboy movies for half a century. Nice.

Racism is so deeply embedded in America that the simple claim that black lives matter turned into a controversy. You know what a normal nation would've done? Examine their police. Us? We said fuck those people, let the racist cops do whatever they want. Do you have any clue what it's like to raise a black son in America? I'm white myself so I can't speak firsthand, but I have talked to numerous people who've told me about "the Talk". You know about this? It's not the birds and the bees, it's about how to behave around cops so they don't kill you. How insanely fucked up does your country have to be for that??

This is called honesty. Progress can't be made without it.

I've made it my life's work to fight white supremacy in the blue collar South and I'll fucking devour you whole.

Dictatorships be like that. You never hear about these problems with co-ops, just saying...

You can still be a wizard! I'm trying to befriend my local crows currently.

Idk there's a lot of pissed off restaurant workers out there who can appreciate it

Man, I should watch that again. It's been ages.

I've always been a fan of that trope. I like to do a Brooklyn goblin from time to time.

I'm honestly not sure what point you're trying to make.

Painting them yourself is easier than ever though! Contrast paints and washes alone can accomplish amazing things. Trust me, if you've thought about trying, do it. You can absolutely do a better job than that in no time.

And everyone's hands shake, you work around it :)

👏👏👏

The USA was built on genocide goddammit

Whole nations of people wiped out

And yes, obviously, Gaza.

It's such a damn shame, too. Destiny 2 was some of the most fun I've had in gaming over the last decade. Absolutely jaw-dropping environments at times, clever encounter designs, the gunplay, so many things to love. And I have no doubt Marathon will be a hell of a thing from what I've seen. These people can design a game.

But GODDAMN stop stealing art from people. Upper management has got to be atrocious with all the bullshit they've pulled over the years. And you know that bullshit starts at C-suite and rolls downhill.

Just a damn shame.
