I'm not a huge fan of Borderlands. I like the stories. But I don't like the loot goblining. Constant hunt for ever higher damage numbers.

There's only 1 company I'll pay $80 for a new game. And that is Ryu Ga Gotoku. Cuz they don't miss. No bad half finished launches. No bad games. Every game is a masterclass in Peak.

If you read the article it gets worse.

They're not hiring back the people they fired. They're going to replace them with short term Temps. Shit tier gig economy jobs.

The base game is fine. Once. Its just fine. Once.

When you beat the game and go thru The Unity to a whole ass different dimension and not one single detail is different in any way. That's what kills the drive to go onward. Because the game was fine. Once.

The whole story is predicated on a multiverse that effectively doesn't exist. Except on 1 sidequest for Barrett.

When people say Communism had never been tried it's because communism is the end goal. It's the place we want to get to. A stateless, moneyless, classless society where everyone is truly equal. That's the ideal.

And Socialism is how we get there. Socialism is a scientific method of governance. It's not the insanity of "free-markets" nor is it the dictate of an autocrat. You need hospitals. You put the force of govt behind building hospitals and staffing them. You have a giant landmass so you need mass transit. You don't twiddle your thumbs waiting for the market winds to blow just right. You invest in building it. Because you need it. Because it's good for your people.

Are you new to the concept of memes?

I suggest you play the entire Metal Gear Solid franchise.

Good.

That's the Golden Rule of the US.

"Fuck The Poor"

That'll be a great day.

That's because it is.

Pointless resource hogging bloatware.

Capitalism needs more slaves. But don't dare fuck....unless you're 12, at church, and the rapist is in his 40s. Then all is right with Evangelical Christian God (and Jesus)
