@ChimpMasta Then we'll agree to disagree. My point still stands that twitter has turned into a republican propaganda arm, and the platform is only going to continue to bleed money and users. FAFO, free market decides, etc.. as they say, lol. 😉 Good day.
@ChimpMasta The irony is don't pretend to be something that one clearly isn't. I personally don't care where information comes from, as long as it is accurate and verifiable, it should always be revealed, no matter who the guilty individual or group is. Twitter and muskrat are no neutral arbiters of free-flowing information. How quickly one changes their stated tune from 2022 saying the platform needs to be neutral, to the current ceasepool after getting fully into bed with chump in 2024. There was also the caving in by muskrat to government demands by both Turkey and Brazil. It's just a ruse and pandering to the hard-right audience the platform has turned itself into and now artificially boosts. And we see the result; the "X-odus" (Tw-xodus? 😂) as it were, lol. 😋 That's purely on muskrat for why his platform is failing. Dudes getting what he deserves, and he needs to take personal responsibility. Can't blame anyone else for that.
@ChimpMasta Don't forget Twitter, they've surpressed info under muskrat that was inconvenient to the far-right... Now the site is just one giant arm of maga.
Considering how toxic social media is, made worse by the far-right takeover of sites like Twitter and the increasing "normalization" of ignorance, baseless conspiracies, intolerance and hatred, it's no surprise to see moves like this to address youth bullying. I myself was bullied horribly in my primary school days, and that was without social media. I couldn't even imagine how much worse it would be for kids now with the advent of social media, hence another reason why I would never want kids of my own and deal with all of that again...
It just seems nearly impossible to actually enforce something like this though.
@ Kanji-Tatsumi Chumplings and the far-right are indeed truly the deranged ones, lol. 😂 Still buying his watches, bibles, his crypto grift, etc. Deranged.
But it's not just exclusively that type of person, as many on the far-right despise video games and the gamers who enjoy the hobby; I could buy a brand new copy of SH2 if a had a quarter for all the times those losers have attacked me for being a gamer.
Having a die-hard obsession over an individual or object; that is derangement syndrome. Previously it was Bush; you can look up clips online of far-right pundits uttering "BDS". Maga has been using that incorrectly for nearly a decade. Its so funny to me, lol. 😂
@Vault_Mcfly And also the anti-gaming, far right freaks on muskrat social. I was genuinely shocked SH2R got targeted like this, but meh, let the trolls cry harder. I'm just waiting to get my hands on the game. I always believed in this project from its initial reveal trailer, and I'm glad my faith was rewarded and that the haters failed. 😍
@EchoRange @jrt87 Makes sense. I played every AC from 1 to Black Flag, and always found it amusing how it takes historical events, places, people, and makes a sci-fi story out of it. I'm no real fan of Ubisoft, so to see all this hate over more of the same from Shadows is beyond insane. Murderous popes, Aliens and millennia-spanning conspiracies = fine, but 1 Black dude in Japan which we have some historical evidence for = nuclear meltdown? 🤷♂️🤯 Just ignore culture war garbage. It never ends, it's stupid, ignorant, pointless lunacy perpetuated largely by the far-right, and nothing is accomplished from it. Just play and enjoy whatever looks interesting to one's self.
The only remotely exciting console manufacturer/publisher at the moment is Nintendo. MS & Sony..? Lol... A race to the bottom competition of who can make themselves hated more... 🤦♂️
@NEStalgia This is easily the most boring, slow, uninspired generation of PlayStation I've personally been apart of, since jumping in with PS3. Complacent is an accurate adjective to describe the current Sony and their internal output. Nearly a year's wait between Spiderman 2 and Astrobot is insane.
@WhiteRabbit... 🫤 Define "biggest". If we're talking resources, number of studios, and overall organizational size, MS is absolutely gargantuan. It's one of the largest companies on the planet.
@LordFunkalot I bought it immediately as well but haven't played yet. I couldn't be happier to finally have a digital re-release of the original Timesplitters. 😄😍
I'm sure the final design will be fine. Culture war garbage and the far right extremism nonsense that pushes it non-stop, have really broken many people's brains. Christ...🤦♂️
While it's true gamers are ridiculously entitled and many individuals are toxic (although that can be said about most fandoms), Gatcha belongs in the dumpster. I refuse to play stuff like Genshin because it's so predatory.
@J-Dubs That "rule" doesn't automatically apply to straight ports of re-released classic titles. Timesplitters is from the pre-HD, pre-achievement/trophy days.
Same with BWC original Xbox ports (like TS2 and 3) on Xbone/Series X; they don't have achievements, only 360 titles do.
Just bought TS1. 😍 Man, I missed this announcement last week. Despite already having Timesplitters 2 and 3 on Series X, TS1 is still exclusive to PS. Awesome to have the entire Trilogy again on modern hardware. 😍 The way the Timesplitters IP has been treated by publishers is just criminal at this point.
Since I mainly use PS5 for exclusives, and the only Sony exclusives in 2024 I care about are Astrobot and Silent Hill 2, PS5 is quickly becoming the absolute worst generation of PS by far.
These days, Switch and XSX get the majority of my time. Sony just sucks so much overall this generation. SMH.
