Why this studio deserves to survive over others? The game bombed so hard that was killed in just two weeks by their first party parent company. They embarrassed their whole GAAS strategy and made people angry that resources were wasted in this game when Sony cultivated fandom is all for Single Player games.

Quote:Kamala Harris' 'Fortnite' Map Bans Guns, Has Less Than 400 People Playing
Guns are unavailable on the Fortnite map released by Kamala Harris' presidential campaign on Monday in a bid to appeal to younger voters, sparking some criticism on social media.
According to the Fortnite GG website, which tracks the popularity of maps for the game, a maximum of 383 players have used Harris' Freedom Town, USA map at any one time over the past 24 hours. This places it well behind established maps such as Ranked Reload, which had a peak of 323,783 players during the same period.
worse numbers than concord, and it's an already-popular game and completely free

How would Trump make things worse than the current situation? What have social liberals in Germany actually improved rather than worsened? Your gut feeling is plain stupid. Let people criticise their politicians like they should. The politicians need to act for their citizens and not vice versa to enable them by allegedly not voting for the worse evil.

Yes, "we" know the shit your democrats did in the past. Because we were educated in this regard. It was part of our curriculum.
The focus on remembrance primarily of Jewish victims, while other groups like the Romani people, Herero, and Nama peoples are barely acknowledged at, reveals inconsistencies in how we process historical atrocities. It simply shows us that it means nothing and worse it's enabling projecting racism towards the whole muslim world and community living in Germany and enabling Isreal a genocide where germany is again one of the major enablers.

https://www.deseret.com/1999/12/10/19479752/disney-says-game-character-that-angered-hispanics-will-be-changed/ wrote:BURBANK, Calif. (AP) -- The Walt Disney Co. has agreed to change a sombrero-wearing character in the "Toy Story 2" video game because it offended some Hispanics.
The decision was announced Thursday after a peaceful demonstration outside the Santa Monica headquarters of Activision, which produced the game with Disney based on characters from the animated film. One level of the game features a villain with a mustache, bullet bandolier and a sombrero, which Hispanic activists said was a Mexican stereotype.
Players must shoot the symbol to advance to the next level of the game, said Oscar de la Torre, a counselor at Santa Monica High School.
"We feel it's degrading, it's dehumanizing. It stereotypes Mexicans as villains," he said. "It's a virtual game of genocide, the way we see it, because they're being ethno-specific." 
I don’t mind sombreros.
People here don’t mind Speedy Gonzales, why would mind a random Toy Story toy?
I love when white progressives get offended on behalf of ethnic people who aren't offended themselves. Really shows their unintentionally racist paternalistic side perfectly.

Oh, really?
Where was the concern for 'people's livelihoods' when you assholes were out for CD Projekt's blood (and still are out for blood), because of your delusional, imaginary transphobia?
You guys have banned ALL discussion of Hogwarts Legacy, believing your useless boycott is depriving multi-billionaire JK Rowling of earning more dollars. Where's your concern for the livelihoods of the regular salaried developers at Avalanche Software?
You shits regularly go after YouTubers, banning all discussion of anyone who has dared to wrongthink against Era's doctrine, forcing users to edit links out of their posts. Where's your concern for the backroom staff those YouTubers employ?
But of course, Concord gets a pass just because it featured a few LGBT fatties. That even you losers refused to buy.
Total hypocritical assholes.

Unrealistic expectations like no bombing while having almost carte blanche to post just stupid Tumblr beliefs in the games.

Quote:The problem is that this isn't a persuasive argument. Telling folks who have a redline of genocide that they have to vote for "genocide" instead of "genocide harder" isn't compelling.
This could all be avoided if Harris actually came out against said genocide. It's not hard and even things like an arms embargo are popular positions.
A vote for Kamala is helping to wipe out Palestinians as a whole with that logic. From all the information we have, she's keeping Biden's stance. Biden's stance has been to help commit a genocide.

If you're a Muslim and believe in equal rights, then I'm with you. If you believe all gay people should go to hell then you need to fuck off with that nonsense.
