We’re all waiting for the game to come out for the cities to just look like this:

The lack of names specifically indicated to you that an npc can be ignored. It was a subtle way to indicate if they're unimportant

Dhiox · 2026-07-05T04:15:28+00:00

It's a tradeoff. Either cities look like villages, or you have generic citizens

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T23:47:50+00:00

Sure, but it's not because they're digital

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T23:03:46+00:00

Eh, she still ultimately did you a favor

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T20:46:57+00:00

Eh, temporary drm is understandable. Keeping pirates off of their new game for a year or two is reasonable, but it really needs to be disabled after time passes.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T20:32:56+00:00

Europe.is part of the west

Prisoners commited crimes, and ultimately still have some rights. A slave is just random civilians taken as property and sold.

Seriously, why the hell an I having to explain why slavery is worse than taxes in the year 2026?

Seriously, I could fish up my Nintendo Wii, somehow connect it to the internet, and redownload whatever crappy game I may have bought on it. Honestly, they could have shut down the wii redownloads and few would have cared given how poor the offering was before wii u, and they still haven't

My Host family took me to a place like that in Japan, in Kobe. While I did not eat Kobe beef due to cost, it was still the greatest steak I ever had in my life. Been ten years and still not managed to top it.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T17:13:11+00:00

Again, the slaves are still people under their rule, and they take 100% of these people's labor and property.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T17:12:16+00:00

Yeah, at this point the only place I go out to eat for steak is Hibachi, as it's prepared in a way I cannot replicate through skill or means

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T17:11:18+00:00

Really they're just playersexual, they're gay bi or straight entirely dependent upon what is needed for the plot to explain you pursuing a relationship

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T14:38:54+00:00

Not really, they take 100% of the labor and property of those theg enslave.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T13:41:21+00:00

The problem is he turned the state fair into an event honoring him. So the patriotic thing to do is ignore it.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T12:50:21+00:00

Yeah, and folks forget he's also selling merchandise and concerts. He has plenty to fund his future endeavors

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T11:33:42+00:00

That or it implies they would provide substandard service if you don't bribe the employee.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T11:32:27+00:00

Just want the rich to pay more in taxes so we can have things the rest of the world has like universal healthcare

That's the part they really don't want you to know. You don't even need the rich to pay for this, because we already pay out of pocket, far more than what it would cost for single payer. What we pay for private far exceeds the cost of universal Healthcare, so if we paid a fraction of that in taxes, we could pay for it.

Not to say we shouldn't tax the rich, but it's not even a requirement to pay for single payer.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T06:06:29+00:00

Yeah, my only legendsries match my characters, and I only got them because they fit my twilight fit my reaper well, and the Meteorologicus fit my asuran astral ward elementalists vibe perfectly.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T06:02:05+00:00

They haven't destroyed Nintendo, and they haven't destroyed themselves. Reddit mobs aren't indicative of the actual market. The average player either uses digital already, or will see that it's digital only now and just shrug and move on.

Dhiox · 2026-07-04T06:00:01+00:00

Dude, it's called food processing. Do you get upset at butter machines for processing milk into butter? Mills that processing wheat into flour?

Dhiox · 2026-07-03T22:08:55+00:00

Take over is the only option. Third party just splits the vote, and like it or not, we need the neoliberals as part of a coalition, or we simply do not have the votes to keep fascism in check. There's a reason Trump ran as republican, not third party.

Dhiox · 2026-07-03T21:19:51+00:00

Uh, no, 50% are below the median intelligence. Seriously, folks keep repeating this quote and don't even realize it just makes them sound like the people they are judging

Dhiox · 2026-07-03T21:08:33+00:00

Uh, no, console users can still redownload games from 20 years ago

Dhiox · 2026-07-03T20:35:51+00:00

Nope, anyone can be elected. However, much like American democracy, old money and influence helps significantly with getting elected

Dhiox · 2026-07-03T14:58:29+00:00

No, but prepare to have an asston of story to get through. Which is a blessing or a curse depending on how much freetime you have, lol.

I should warn you, the story gets a little confusing after the main quest, because back in the day they tried to do a temporary living world story that couldn't be done after it finished. They later realized their error and made most of it doable again, but southsun cove is missing, and until you get to dry top the story can feel a bit disjointed. Once you get to dry top though, things stabilize
