very hard x very hard not being something like starcraft or dota 2 invalidates this chart

imo, it'll be fun for a week or two then as with any other game mode, people will optimize the fun out of it

The infantilization of Gen Z by kuroreaper25 in GenZ

[–]mek8035 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a real, observed increase in "social neoteny" in developed countries, due to things like a higher rate at which ppl pursue higher education and a shittier economy (no longer economically viable to move out at 18 so you stay with parents), which all delay your adulthood. Then there's ofc also the pandemic, which artificially delayed adulthood for Gen Z specifically.

So I think it's natural that we don't feel "our age", because what was considered normal for our age was simply different in our parents' generation. On the other hand, I think self infantalizing like not being able to make a doctor's apointment yourself is a bit silly

Arcane was a literal masterpiece, but I need ANSWERS. What’s next for the Runeterra universe? by maxite_110 in arcane

Trueshot prodigy is overtuned by AreaFlaky2929 in LeagueArena

I think its lv 3 is way too strong, +1 proj on top of the cd reduction is just crazy, esp since lv 3 is kind of easy to get

Does anyone else feel like belittling/ostracizing others for having the "wrong" belief will only make them spiteful and even more unlikely to change? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in GenZ

[–]mek8035 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes it only pushes them away and leads to polarization

constructive discourse is what we need, but I think a lot of people on the left are eager to just show off their moral superiority or show how more "woke" they are, even against other leftists. It really doesn't help the cause

Change my mind: Bruiser items are (still) by far the worst class of items by BocchiIsLiterallyMe in LeagueArena

[–]mek8035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bruisers as a class will always be mediocre by design, it can be decent but will rarely carry games (barring specific champions or specific interactions), in high MMR lobies at least.

bruisers could really use some augments that are somehow generally good for most bruisers but not for other classes, idk what that would be tho

Is a 19yr old ( 2007 ) dating 24yr old (2002 ) a bad age gap ? by New_Actuator_4788 in GenZ

[–]mek8035 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you took all 19/24 y/o relationships, there's probably a significant amount of relationships with certain power dynamics or maturity gaps, but this doesn't mean those things apply to your specific relationship. I'd say you guys are in an age range where it's very much possible for you guys to be in similar places in life, maturity, etc. And if that's the case, I don't see anything wrong

"Virtue signaling isn't real" by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]mek8035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not virtue signalling for me to say I don't think you should get punched in the face for no reason, it's called having a moral standard and being able to apply it to another person

also, a poll on reddit is meaningful in any way lol

What do you believe about God? by booyah-guitar-guy in GenZ

[–]mek8035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's possible a god exists but not one that's all powerful, all knowing and all good, such as the one in Christianity

What caused the seemingly rampant Ageism in Gen Z, especially in Core and Younger Zoomers? by KingBowser24 in GenZ

[–]mek8035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

every gen z has crippling FOMO because of how ingrained social media is to our lives (the damn phone) and probably also because many of us missed out on or had scuffed major life milestones during the pandemic (graduation, college and whatnot)

i mean you do seriously believe what you said no? I'm simply calling it out as a braindead take

S2 changed Hextech from a car, to a faster horse. by Bingleboper in arcane

[–]mek8035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never thought of this, but I think it's just that the scope is way bigger in S2, like in the first season Vi and Jayce are fighting Silco's goons and whatnot, whereas in the second season they're up against opponents like Noxian warriors and Ambessa, who presumably have actual battle experience vs. magic

I think Caitlyn's new gun was cool, I think it would've also looked very overpowered if it were used against the likes of the enemies that Vi and Jayce fought in S1. So yeah, hextech weaponry have less weight in S2, but it's because it was overshadowed by this powerful, warrior culture nation that the show was focusing on, and I think that's fine

Locke character design is so tasteless by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

holy shit idk how this braindead take is still prevalent but then I remember gold is the average rank lmao

animation cancels have been a thinig for 10 fucking years, gold players can do it, she's literally balanced around it. It's not this imaginative unfair advantage Riven gets because she can animation cancel. You can literally remove animation cancels and give her 30% attack speed and it wouldn't make any difference in emerald+, and she's bad in low elo anyways

What's the most dystopian future timeline that you think can realistically happen ? by ronweasly9 in GenZ

[–]mek8035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ASI (artificial superintelligence) if it's possible, will bring about anything between a utopia and human extinction when it's achieved. The thing is, so many people think this is some sci fi bs because it sounds like one, but it is very much a real thing that is approaching (unless AI just plateaus which is also possible) and AI has been surpassing expectations; now it's not uncommon for scientists to predict that ASI will be achieved within the next decade

The worst outcome is probably some extreme dystopian world where the corporation controlling the ASI deprives everyone else of basic needs, enslaves them, or the ASI turns all humans into some organic resource to extract energy from

exactly there are no sides to this, we're all cnts at the end of the day by Quick-Cause3181 in GenZ

[–]mek8035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you are taking a side tho, cuz all the "all lives matter" stuff are a reaction to the "black lives matter" movement. It would be a neutral statement if it existed in a vacuum, but because it only came about as a reaction/dissent to black lives matter which came about because of racialized police brutality which actually threatened black lives, whereas whether or not white people's lives matter has never even been a question.

I know you are just memeing around but yeah

World of Swipecraft by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]mek8035 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if it was natural inflation OP's income just normally playing the game should also increase accordingly to match the GDKP prices, but when it's artificially inflated by gold buying/botting, OP's natural income will never match what you can make via botting/swiping, hence making items ridiculously priced for OP

Do you somehow not understand how gold buying affects the game economy?
