politics is reality and you just want fantasy… but if you keep reading fantasy, you’ll eventually notice something horrible about it. Spoiler alert: its politics
I like that it takes becoming satanic to develop a civilized view of the world. Rather I like how completely we have twisted the world with TOTAL BULLSHIT that people feel the need to claim a force for ultimate evil is what makes them want to make the world a fairer, less shitty place.
Bro. You don’t think that having to label a “rational, scientific, humanistic worldview that fights against superstition and ignorance” as SATANIC makes a point?
You gotta remember the Satanic church started in like the 50s or 60s in the USA when the tone of the country was even more overtly religulous than it is now. It’s an aggressive reaction to craven stupidity. Murica, don’t tread on me, that sort of thing.
You start making your microtransactions actually micro - transactions too small to do with real money, ie things that cost less than a cent - and maybe we’ll consider this, you raging fucktard. I might even pay you 2c extra so that I can have all the clothes in a game I really like - the actual value of digital “goods”.
I’m playing an Ubisoft game right now; if a game is cheap enough on Steam I don’t care who the publisher is. So I got Immortals Fenyx Rising in exchange for dirt.
It bears all the signs of a great creative team getting fucked over by exactly the sort of idiot who runs his mouth like that guy. There’s even a demo level, explicitly called such in the game, for the now-cancelled sequel, how sad is that? The control scheme isn’t completely ironed out and has some screwy behaviour in niche situations. There’s a huge wait as you load the game while it checks the server for updates which will never come, duration of nearly a minute and sometimes longer, the sort of thing that a responsible company would remove when updates are no longer forthcoming (surely it’s at most a few lines of code, and circumventable by one); and I haven’t finished the game yet but it seems right now that the main story-giving NPC who hangs out at your base is just selling fuckin macrotransaction cosmetics. Tacky, and you can taste the dev team’s resentment in being forced to include it.
it’s your combination dyson sphere/rotisserie spit. Exposes the surface of your planet evenly to the sun! … in case that was’t happening already, before.
Cruci-fuckin is good, but The Bible 2 was what got the laugh. That it’d really be part 3 (probably actually more like 10, those Sumerian stories seem super familiar…) is just part of the joke!

Ancient wisdom often sounds like common sense now that it is commomly taught. What is some ancient wisdom that we no longer teach because it was wrong?

Aliens want to communicate and they decide to use you and your personality as the base model for all humans. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
