@kgsg-19-2: The "pockets your money" president Trump has donated his entire presidential salary during the past four years -- over $1,200,000.
I'm paying far less taxes under Trump than I'd been paying during each of the previous eight years -- possibly due to the fact that he's the first president in 40 years to not start a new war.
The people who got very rich during the lockdown were the ultra-wealthy billionaires, and Trump is not one of them (in fact, the media gloats about his losing money)
You're not fooling anyone but yourself. If your "new mommy" gets into office, expect more lockdowns and more wars. He's already loading up his cabinet with CFR (Council for Foreign Relations) people, the warmongering meddlers who worked with Bush and Obama.
@thecupidstunts: I like how you summarized 50% of the article in two sentences.
I'm exaggerating, of course. Seems like a very enjoyable time, and I'm looking forward to it (whenever I find PS5s readily available, because I'm not doing the "camp out in front of the computer and constantly reload the page" thing).
"git gud" is just the hard truth - or at least one side of it.
If you dislike how often you die in a game, your two main options are 1) improve as a player or 2) quit. That's a simple truth.
Conversely, other options exist, such as handing the controller to a better player or using some kind of cheat. I just don't see either of these as being worthwhile suggestions to struggling gamers.
So it goes back to those two options, "git gud" or quit.
It would be a "beta male" or "childish" person who has severe difficulties in accepting reality. The sane and responsible people of the world understand their available options and act accordingly.
You did say "usually" beta males, though -- so I can accept that you don't mean everyone. And yes, I do know that there are people who use "git gud" as a condescending taunt, which is indeed rude and juvenile.
Yet, the hard truth behind the taunt is what makes the taunt effective.
@dashaka: That's why I rarely argue with people who don't like "Souls" games.
Some people get frustrated more easily, and the games are a different experience for them. You can describe your own experience to them, and the best possible result is that they will understand what you are saying and perhaps agree with some of your points.
Yet, they still rely more heavily on their own experience with the game -- which is perfectly reasonable. That's how we all are.
And it is for that reason that I would never let anyone convince me that the "Souls" games are anything less than masterpieces.
