Many of these are barely games at all, but they're marketed as such so into the games section this goes. only-good-gamer

    How did we, as gamers, let this happen?

    as a first-order cause we didn't have a choice.

    at the root, too many of y'all bought horse armor instead of becoming communists.

      Placing the blame primarily on individual consumer choices is a LIB take and the sense of lofty superiority you might feel from that take is also a form of liberalism.

        ii said it wasn't our choice

        if "the market" had magically rejected horse armor they would've had to find different ways to be horrible

          That's a non-provable negative and claiming that absolutely everything would be exactly the same is just a call for apathy and I reject it.

              wut

              Bruh peddling inevitabilism and allowing bad people to be bad however they please is not exactly a leftist take.

                is not something i did

                claiming that absolutely everything would be exactly the same

                is also not something i did

                allowing bad people to be bad however they please

                is not something i proposed or implied

                I'm not sure who you're talking to but for a portion of each of your replies in this thread it seems to not be to me.

                have a nice day.

                  There aren't many other ways to interpret saying that, or its intent in being said. Dodge around all you like, but if all you have to say is disavowals of interpretation over and over again, then you effectively said nothing at all, which is fine by me because your apathy statement was worthless from the start.

                  have a nice day.

      No, I let this happen. I once saw Sid Meier at an airport and I didn't attempt to kill him or even slip a note into his thick jacket pocket threatening his life if he ever made a bad game.
