Gaming discourse has become unbearable. A game gets announced and suddenly thousands of people act like they're the CEO of the company. You like it? Buy it. You don't like it? Move on. What nobody asked for is the endless whining, harassment, and demands that studios change their games just to satisfy your personal preferences. Not every game is made for you. If a game doesn't interest you, close the tab, keep scrolling, and let the people who are excited enjoy it. The obsession with attacking developers, studios, and creative decisions is far more annoying than any game announcement ever could be. #Gaming #GameDev #PlayStation #Xbox #Nintendo #PCGaming #VideoGames #summergamefest #gta6 #godofwar

Lol. Imagine ever playing this game when people like this exist purely to exploit the secondary market. I'm glad every day that I never was a part of this community or OPTCG. The profit maxing people are so gross.
Went to the Riftbound RQ in Sydney and had a group with the intent to farm metals. I’d say it went pretty well.

In the past, you could look at someone’s character and reliably identify their strength and achievements based on the way they were geared. This has been largely replaced in favor of cash shop items and bikini skins all while making the in-game drops look worse to push people towards swiping. Working hard on clearing difficult or sometimes simply repetitive content doesn‘t feel rewarding if all you get to show for it is some goofy title and all you get to flex with is your credit card. These days, MMOs are designed in a way that makes it possible for people to progress solo all the way. Plus, interacting with other players has been „optimized“ out to a point where most people would likely not be able to tell a difference if they were queued into a dungeon with AI bots. Some might even prefer it. To make things worse, MMOs started to introduce daily chores in an effort to increase player retention through psychological manipulation. Not only are daily quests repetitive and unfun, they prevent you from doing things you‘d rather do for the sake of „efficiency“. They also shift the mindset of the player base in a way that makes people impatient and irritable. Wiped on a boss once? Watch half your party rage quit because they need to clear it asap on as many characters as possible. MMOs have lost their identity as a massive world one can explore side by side thousands of other players and have turned into a glorified P2W queue simulator that has little to no appeal for new players that don‘t feel nostalgia for the „good old days“.
The MMO is a dying genre for a reason. Younger people generally dont have the attention span or are too adverse to social interaction these days to play them.

3 years. 3 World Finals. 3 unforgettable experiences. I'm insanely grateful to Bushiroad for giving me the opportunity to represent them as a commentator, convey the knowledge I've accumulated, and spread my love of Weiss Schwarz. And I hope to keep coming back for more.

When Wolfe says this about VGC everyone is like "preach" but when I say this about Weiss Schwarz people think I'm a fckng clown 😔
Replying to @DistantCoder
The real secret is that managing the RNG in Pokemon is a huge part of the skill - it’s definitely difficult and you’ll still lose games to bad RNG sometimes, but you can build your teams in a way and play in a way to minimize the odds of it happening

New blog article. Despite high usage since its release, I feel like discussion around BD didn't go deeper than the surface level very often, so here are my thoughts on top ends in Bang Dream. Kept brief to publish before banlist. Link: kaigaiweiss.wordpress.com/20… #weissschwarz

“we may or may not invade you every four years depending on how worked up ~20,000 swing voters in Waukesha County, Wisconsin feel about trans kids playing volleyball” isn’t really a good sales pitch for maintaining international allies.
Let’s focus on preventing Trump from forcibly acquire Greenland, with all the global damage it will cause. But let’s also be clear that if he succeeds, the position of a Democratic administration in 2029 will be to return it to Denmark. And our Danish friends should know that.

Ron DeSantis: If a mob comes and surrounds your vehicle and threatens you, you have a right to flee for your safety. If you drive off and you hit one of these people, that's their fault.

New blog article. Here's the updated Overlord (EN) article I promised. I've gone 11-2 in BSF2025 season (inc. a regional win) with the deck and @_Ryoshun has won #BCS2025 Pasadena with the same list so the results show how good it is. Link below 👇 #weissschwarz

I won BCS Pasadena over the weekend, accomplishing the only thing I haven't done yet in the game. Shout out to the DFW Weiss scene, Elly for telling me to play OVL as well as @zabuton78 for his excellent Overlord build and analysis. Let's win worlds again!
