I got Okami HD and Crash Bandicoot 4 for real cheap

I don’t do diagnosing people with personality disorders based on their online behaviour

But I do recognise the patterns of a 4chan-using teenager, seeing as I used to be one.

They think they’re the coolest shit ever because they send people verbal abuse and can at least superficially get away with it because on the internet no one will give them a black eye for it.

They’ll grow up, eventually. Or they won’t and will become a fascist. Either way, they’re the one most deeply fucked over by their shit attitude.

I mean if you wanna dive that deep, it started when some religious extremists got kicked out of England for being too extremist (for the british empire!) and moved to the new world, killing the people who previously lived there.

… But up until 2008 shit more or less held together? Not pretending 'murica was ever good, but it was the 2008 recession that caused its structure, however fucky it had been from first principles, to really break down.

Peep their profile, it’s full of this shit. I’m assuming “Chan user, possibly teenaged”

You’ve picked a pretty dumb hill to die on mate.

The estimated population of natives in the 1500s when the portuguese arrived was 2 million (according to IBGE), it was 302k by 1998 (also according to IBGE), and that’s AFTER decades of recovery efforts.

Edit: Jesus christ on a stick your profile.

Retro-style: DUSK, Prodeus, Serious Sam

More modern: Wolfenstein - The New Colossus, Doom 2016, BioShock 1 and 2

Spooky, “ghost train”: Doom³

Exploration oriented: Metroid Prime (and 4 is coming up!), Powerslave Exhumed

Yes and no.

Without Trump fucking shit up on a government level (the Supreme Court in particular), there would probably be less scary shit happening on that end. Would have slowed things down.

But the radicalisation of the Americans began before 2016. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. The disease started spreading as early as 2008. The recession, the damp squib that was the Occupy Wall Street event was the inception of many political movements, both far left AND far right.

That’s the thing people don’t realise. Even if Donald J. Trump didn’t exist, the underlying social tensions mean that inevitably someone would show up to galvanise far right sentiments, and the political estabilishment would have boosted them, whoever they were, because when the common folk are getting angry about their lot, then to the people actually in charge, a fascist dictatorship is preferrable to the alternative.

You called?

I have a list of people allowed to diss Brazil

It does not include Anglos or Europeans.

Fellow Latin Americans and African folk can go crazy.

We also really fucked Paraguay up.

Human beings may not be perfect but a computer program with language synthesis is hardly the answer to the world’s problems

I find myself appreciating Deus Ex more and more with the years…

… But also utterly unable to replay it because it’s too close to home now.

(I also have no love for .webm as a video format)

Same. Very useful.

John Cena school would be great.

Already did, unfortunately. There was a time when she was inescapable in fandom circles. Mlpol people are the most punchable persons to have ever existed.

The chick, in this context.

The Boto-cor-de-rosa, or river dolphin, is a real animal

But the cryptid of the same name is a river dolphin that is actually a shapeshifting trickster, who will turn himself into an attractive man (often depicted wearing a fancy hat to cover the blowhole atop his head) and seduce and bang women.

Brazilians with our cryptids:

Getting your masturbatory material from pornhub is for normies. Real degenerates are home free on account of the relative obscurity of our sources.

While I had some fun playing torchlight 2 with a friend back in the day, in reality I never got on with the entire genre (or its sibling the Looter-Shooter)

It’s like

Every video game is on some level a skinner box, but arpgs and lootershooters are the most transparent and cynical about it, idk. Well no, the SECOND most transparent and cynical about it, MMOs still take the cake.

The move to “HD” when the PS3/360 were dominant was the death knell of hundreds of mid-sized studios, and gaming never really recovered from it.
