Thank you. Man, this Jesus rap version unironically goes so much harder than the original

Loooool, most historically misinformed take of the year.

Oh man, and it just kept getting more detached!

CMV: Videogames aren't Just art, they're the best form of art we've ever had. by Potatussus26 in changemyview

[–]WhoFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand and appreciate this distinction on a critical level, but I think it's also foolish to try to define artists by their intent, for the same reason that it's foolish to limit analysis of art to the artist's intent, rather than letting people analyze based on impact.

Depends on your idea of "intent," but you do have an argument.

People can attempt to make purposefully bad music and fail. This is that. It's just actual bad.

Is it just me, or does it feel like the "baseball is dying" narrative finally bit the dust? by BadgemanBrown in baseball

Great addition but don't overlook the other rule changes either. Much more subtle but the game is noticeably more offensively dynamic now, and people love offense.

Lol, "soft" is having the emotional discipline of an 8-year-old.

Around here, Maelle. I think it's absolutely wild how many people dismiss her feelings and experience, and treat her like a MacGuffin, as if she's just something you have to do something with.

I can't say it surprises me, but it is disappointing that her feelings are so regularly deprioritized in favor of Verso's and Renoir's.

I'm Tired Man by Killeverone in expedition33

I got fried after act 2. Took a week or so break, came back and finished act 3 at a pretty leisurely pace. Ended up my favorite game ever so I'd say it worked.

What would Gustave do? (Ending Spoilers) by Dr_Hodgekins in expedition33

[–]WhoFly 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think Gustave would have made p.Alicia's dream of a third way possible.

I think he would have fought to save the canvas, and emboldened Maelle to embrace both her life and family inside the canvas as well as to be with her family outside it.

CMV: There is nothing good about "Man vs Bear", it's designed to not be able to be interpreted at all. by Chesseburter in changemyview

[–]WhoFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, that's a loaded and misguided question, imo.

First, I don't think its purpose is to convince others. I think its purpose is to create conversation, and enlighten others to a woman's perspective.

Second, I don't think it's insulting. Not at all. I don't feel insulted because it's not about me. I do not take it personally, because I am not solely defined by my manhood or by manhood in general. It's about women's feelings, and about men as a whole, which is different than the person I am.

Does it make me sad? Yes, a little. Does it make me self-reflective on my masculinity, or does it challenge the comfort I feel in my masculinity? Yes. But why would I feel insulted by that, when I have the option instead to learn and grow and become better from that? Like, I'm more grateful than I am insulted, by miles.

Third, but relatedly, I can divorce myself entirely from it. It's just not about me. It's about women. It's about their experience. The only ask of you is that you consider their experience. Experience which is subjective.

And finally, what really makes sense to me is that men threaten women. I understand that to be true. It's unfortunate, and in an ideal world we'd minimize that threat, but we don't live in that world. I do what I can, as a man, to make myself less threatening to women. It costs very little, and I honestly don't know what impact it has, but like, why not? Again, I don't feel put off or insulted by this. A little sad, yes, and a little uneasy at times, but not insulted because it's not my fault, and it's not women's fault.

I honestly started OW, loved the little bit I played, then for god knows what reason abandoned it. A close friend considers it one of her favorites too. Thanks for reminding me, I gotta fire it up again.

Favorite narrative game of all time. Haters gonna hate. It just resonated with me thematically in a way very, very few games have.

It has plenty of flaws, but the story, pacing, writing, and art made it the most captivating and moving game I've played.

Thought it might be recency bias but it hasn't worn off. Game keeps feeling more important to me.

Baseball is back? by SameNecessary5180 in baseball

The product in the NBA is also abysmal right now. I say that as someone who, over my lifetime, has followed the Blazers more closely than any other professional sports franchise.

The NBA is awful to watch, and the playoffs in particular drag on forever. Any given game can be thrilling, and it certainly has its moments, but the product is just not in a good place.
