Don’t give them any more stupid ideas. They have their hand full enough with spinoffs already.

Those prices sound 30% too low at the minimum. You definitely deserve more.

Watch it from home right now. It’s available.

lol nice edit 🤦‍♂️ The theatre experience has been vastly degraded since Covid. The price to fun experience ratio is out the fucking window. You can watch it from home with some friends or rent out a damn screening room and have a whole night of movies. You can download the full quality film and have zero issues. Also most people who give a shit about movies have sounds bars or full surround sound. Which have better audio balance than theatres.

Don’t need to get swept up in a marketing gimmick to enjoy old movies.

Corporation tries to squeeze out last possible profit out from nostalgic fans of a long dead movie.

Fify.

Yup, then they get to do the rounds with the priests they keep hiding.

Yes and in the past games used to not have loot boxes and subscriptions.

Your experience in the past does not represent an accurate view of the future of games.

You might have had fun with free shit but that’s not the case for everyone and every game. Especially moving forward with how games are developed nowadays. You are projecting your “good” experience onto many players that didn’t.

If it’s only got a playerbase because it’s giving free shit to attract players for whales then that game is a fucking scam.

Have you heard of boiling frogs?

“The boiling frog story is generally offered as a metaphor cautioning people to be aware of even gradual change lest they suffer eventual undesirable consequences. It may be invoked in support of a slippery slope argument as a caution against creeping normality. It is also used in business to reinforce that change needs to be gradual to be accepted. The term “boiling frog syndrome” is a metaphor used to describe the failure to act against a problematic situation which will increase in severity until reaching catastrophic proportions. It thereby encapsulates the barely noticeable impact of slow environmental degradation that has been described by Daniel Pauly as shifting baselines.”

Case in point:

“It’s not so bad, they give me free stuff.”

They stop making regular games and everything is a live service.

“Thats cool, we still get to play for FREE if we prop up their revenue stream.”

Games get aggressive with charges and adds a hard paywall.

“Thats cool, at least long term fans are enjoying the gameplay they provide.”

They kill off the original in favour of marketing part 2 with more enshittification and half the content of the original missing.

“Oh…”

You are the boiling frog.

Good on you. Lots of people aren’t that strong and addictions are hard to kick.

Lootboxes have been marked as gambling for a reason.

Until you hit the paywall. Which you will.

These games are made to let you play just long enough to get hooked and then tighten the grip slowly to get you to pay.

These aren’t games they are parasitic services.

Or you could stop playing games that are made to suck as much money from your pockets as possible then implode once they are no longer profitable. Then they get to replace the game with an identical product and tape a 2 at the end and repeat the cycle.

Stop fucking preordering and purchasing scams!

That’s projection.

He doesn’t like people because they aren’t conservative and he’s projecting that same feeling onto others and treats them as he thinks they would treat him. With hostility.

Fuck the IMF

Cool now we know how to approach and destroy these abominations.

Sunglasses and a mask are still totally fine to wear nowadays. Just walk up and pretend to trip.

Baseball bats sound more effective. Make ‘em eat the costs.

Burn it!

I’m sure Mount Doom wouldn’t mind another tribute
