they might crater the economy so badly that it wipes out a ton of carbon use and buys the rest of the world some more time (albeit probably along with millions of people starving to death, akin to Mao's famine)

what about quebec french?

At absolute best Canada will be a territory, but that will still be "bad" since it means that people born here will be US citizens and have freedom of movement. Much more likely that we'll end up with an Israel-Palestine type scenario where they just gradually violently displace Canadians off of any resources they want, starve us literally and economically with embargos, assassinate any non-extremist political leadership, and enslave us

When you consider that a major feature for the PS5 was a highly optimized I/O controller for a very fast SSD, I have no faith whatsoever that we'll be seeing SD cards as a viable game storage mechanism. Unfortunately.

Truly one of the best games ever, especially in the context of when it came out. Perfect timing of the well-executed slowmo gunplay mechanics right as the matrix popularized bullet time. Story and storytelling way better than they had any right to be. Really good pacing and length. Acts broken up by genre-bending dream sequences. Great voice acting.

I think the graphics might have been the only thing about this game that wasn't ahead of its time. They still got the job done though.

Hopefully this game gets a remake as faithful as Demons's Souls.

download the podcasts ahead of time too smh

I coincidentally played it during covid lockdown and the thematic connections to the moment were really special. Bird flu is coming, maybe wait for the next pandemic lockdowns and try it then?

minecraft and rimworld too

Mainstream gaming, is on aggregate, getting worse and worse over time. Everyone wants to feel empowered to stop that from happening.

You could punch upward, targeting management of stuidos and publishers.

You could look inward, and make a commitment to sincerely boycott games from companies that consistely release games in an unfinished state, use dark patterns to exploit gambling addictions for profit, mistreat their staff, etc.

Or you could punch down, and target LGBT creators, who are largely individual contributors and completely unrelated with any of the root causes of the decline in game quality. But this one is SO much easier than the other two, so maybe you'll do this one so that you can feel like you're doing something without really having to do anything. Especially since it confims some things you heard from politicians that need to distract you from how their only policy is to make life better for rich people.

why?
