We have to talk about this Disney-fication of games. This ruined WoW and now it's on the way to ruin God of War: Laufey (terrible name). Modern designers seem to have an unquenchable desire to take epic stories with grit and then shove in cute animals, jelly cubes with millennial dialog, dancing sentient "ribbons" and colors dredged from rainbow vomit. This feels like they never grew out of needing a safe space. It feels like they are incapable of adult themes and problems and it feels like a total avoidance of adulthood and accountability. And it's so off putting to see in a God of War game. You might as well have called it something else. It has zero ties aside from the name to the originals. Stop taking games that are supposed to be about war and violence and gritty mythology and turning them into theme-park rides for 5 year olds.

What if Russia and China didn’t want to deal with nations like Iran and Venezuela? The West have been trying to isolate Russia and China for decades, and gave them no choice but to deal with unsavory regimes. What if we offered them a seat at the table instead of being enemies?

Trump is just matching energy with the regime
