Do you like Metroid or Castlevania?

My heart goes out to everyone that was censored by a dogpile of reports.

Moderators can go fuck themselves, and moderation shouldn't be taken seriously at all.

They only have themselves and their abuse to blame.

The goal is to keep opinions we don’t want fragmented and from coalescing in to a single voice for long enough that the memes we do want can, at which points they’ve gotten a head start on going viral and tend to capture a larger-than-otherwise share of media attention.

Interesting. There's definitely a concerted effort to censor information on the internet.

I don't think it's just Russians. I also believe a lot of useful idiots are perpetuating censorship because it's expected of them.

Really? I have almost the exact opposite experience when I look at my old code.

I'm usually afraid that it's junk and I could've done better, but then I'm routinely impressed by what I've written and go "Man, I did a good job with this."

Interesting theory, but I have a better one.

This is part of the concerted effort to make sure as many people do nothing with their lives as possible. There's a culture of loserdom where people literally only play video games with their lives. Such a loser should never be taken seriously unless you want to end up like them.

No it's not.

The only way to get better at things is to do them. While losers were playing video games to get their instant gratification, this winner was working towards a skill that they could use and build for the rest of their life.

Out of everyone criticizing him, I'd wager less than 10% have any knowledge at all of game development. They will never get that knowledge because they're losers who are afraid to learn. Learning means admitting you don't know and coming to terms with all the time you've wasted on bullshit.

I miss the days when gaming wasn't cool.
