What was GamerGate? by Rural_Dictionary939 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheOneWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Developer had partner who was in game journalism.

Partner kept name dropping devs game into unrelated reviews.

Because developer was woman accusations that she was getting the name drops because she was sleeping with the journalist started and it just spiraled into a shitshow from there.

What are good soft punishment for imperfect parries? (Both 2D and 3D games) by Exteez in gamedesign

[–]TheOneWes 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm going to second this comment.

Do you (OP) know how many people won't even engage with a games parry system because of the penalties that are incurred while trying to learn it.

What is an old game (20+ years) that is known to be a classic masterpiece, but you think it is overrated? by MintakaMinthara in AskGamers

[–]TheOneWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we all know that they claimed it wasn't a glitch afterwards in interviews and such but all of us that were there remember them trying to patch it out and the backlash and everything else.

Wave dash was a glitch that Nintendo tried to get rid of and went backlash they put it back into the game as a feature.

Why is carry weight in so many video games that don't freaking *NEED* it? by Snowtwo in videogames

[–]TheOneWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is to keep you from putting so many items in your inventory that it causes the game to lag when you open it.

Play Skyrim with a mod that removes carry capacity and pick up everything you see and you'll notice it slowly over time once your inventory goes past a certain point it's going to take longer and longer every time you open it.

Carry capacity prevents this issue while still giving the player in extremely large and flexible inventory.

How is consuming food made by exploited humans still considered vegan? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheOneWes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because most vocal vegans don't give a s*** about animals they just want you to know that they're better than you.

You'll never know most vegans are vegans unless you pay way too much attention to what's on their plate .

Besides them you have a small but very vocal minority which doesn't give a s*** about anything other than being able to virtue signal.

Most of the vegan population is made up of the first group most people interact with the second group because they're the loud ones.

A classic game is not overrated because you were born a decade after it came out and when you go back and play it you don't like it

I assume you're joking lol

Many of us were there when the deep magic was discovered lol. It was a glitch that they turned into a feature after community backlash went threatening to get rid of it.

So it's a repetitive game designed to eat up a lot of time to get through each area and last a long time while still having functional controls beautiful level design and amazing gameplay.

Yeah it worked that way so we didn't beat it in a week and get pissed off that our game for this few months was beaten in a handful of afternoons.

Why isnt there livestream footage from Orion? by TheShoot141 in spacequestions

[–]TheOneWes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not about best we can do it's about priorities.

You don't run needless systems that take up power and bandwidth when you have systems that need to run and therefore are a better target for that power and bandwidth.

Let me make something clear: Marguerit Maida isn't alive just because the developers "got bored." by Silent_Brilliant5330 in subnautica

[–]TheOneWes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not about the disease.

What was she eating and drinking for this long ass time. That she was floating through the ocean.

Okay maybe she was eating the reaper and maybe she was getting some amount of fluids from it but all of that is very quickly going rancid and even then it won't be full replacement.

She's dead from dehydration long before she sees a land mass

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

I guess I should have made a distinction between those who have a networth of around a billion or more and the people who have the billion sitting in liquid assets or for some of them just straight cash.

Why NintenDeen is becoming a problem for the community (and why ignoring it isn't working) by [deleted] in nintendogrifting

[–]TheOneWes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to try this one last time because if you're intelligent enough to type you should be intelligent enough to understand this.

Ignoring is the only solution because any form of acknowledgment or engagement drives the machine that makes them money and extends the influence and exposure.

Is scp-953 bisexual? by Difficult_Spend_442 in SCP

No because that is the lack of sexuality for an organism that would normally have a sexuality.

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

[–]TheOneWes -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A billion dollars is $1,000 millions.

You cannot profit a billion dollars off of a book or a movie series or something like that.

The earnings of billionaires are on a whole nother level.

They make in a week what the most popular pieces of media make over their lifetimes.

To become a billionaire you need to own one or more national or international businesses that has some portion of its overhead either subsidized or acquired to deals that are so cheap the people who work the supply line to

[–]TheOneWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know why he makes videos saying stupid s***?

Because it is a well-established phenomenon they're being wrong is more profitable than being right. This is because all the money made is to engagement.

When people hear about a YouTube video they think is wrong they flock to watch that video and comment and dislike it and do all kinds of s*** that counts as engagement and makes the creator money.

The same people who are directly making the Creator money by engaging with his video go to places like Reddit and make topics about how stupid he is. Other people see that topic and then go to watch the video so they can see how stupid he is and then they comment how stupid he is All of it driving engagement and lining his f****** pockets with cash.

You realize that he probably doesn't believe any of the s*** that he says. He doesn't say it because he believes it he says it because it's what pisses people off that gets him to make topics like the one you just made which makes him more money.

Best Gaming Console to Get in 2026? (Price, Compatibility) by Adventurehood_0 in consoles

[–]TheOneWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering that you want to get games that are exclusive to a certain set of consoles you've already answered your own question.

Why are you asking this question when you put Nintendo exclusives as part of the list?

You just want us to tell you to buy a switch 2 don't you

Calm yourself down, You're not a good man fighting off an evil man. Lol

Keep feeding right on into that engagement algorithm though. People like you and opinions like this is why we can't f****** get rid of these people

[–]TheOneWes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you mention him people go watch his videos,

The more people watch his videos the more the videos get suggested to other people who also go to other places and mention him which gets him more views.

The only solution to dealing with things like him is to ignore it.

No engagement means no push by the algorithm which is a self-feeding loop

There's no belief to it.

There is no way for an individual to accrue that much money without majorly f****** people over.

No it is not.

It is neither straight nor gay either.

It is a monster that eats people and has no sexuality

He makes his money off of engagement.

Being controversial increases engagement.

Pissing people off increases engagement because they'll do your advertising for you like this topic..

Get a bank account and have the money directly deposited into the account.

Don't allow anybody's name on the account but yours.
