That’s a reach lolol. Did Pooh Bear put you up to this? Promise a bump on your social credit score if you’d go online and say anyone that calls Xi Winnie the Pooh is racist?

It’s not yellow because he’s Asian you raging edgelord, it’s cause he’s Pooh Bear, and Winnie the Pooh is yellow.

Go back to licking your authoritarian, human rights abusing quasi-dictator’s boots ya fop.

That’s fair, I can see where you’re coming from there for sure.

To be honest, I ran through all the different endings once, and then settled on one that I personally prefer every time after that for a bit, but lately I actually just play all the way through, finish every gig, mission, and scanner hustle up to that final point of no return, and that’s where I quit. Then start over from scratch lol. I’ve ended my last 3 playthroughs that way.

Really?

I mean, I’m not a big fan of “Five different endings” (technically 6) that literally just exist as “select which ending you would like” in a dialogue choice to choose the last mission, I’ll give you that. That being said though, I really do feel like all of them represent different attitudes and/or takes on the story preceding, and really feel like they could be a legitimate close to the story each in their own way.

Just curious if it’s a similar feeling for you, or if you actually don’t like the endings themselves

Skyrim,
Fallout NV
Fallout 4
Witcher 3
Ghost of Tsushima
Mass Effect (full trilogy)
BioShock (mostly 1, but sometimes 2 and 3 as well)
Borderlands (1 and 2, never really got into 3 or the Tales games)
Red Dead Redemption (both)
Assassins Creed Black Flag
Mad Max
Cyberpunk 2077
Dying Light (the original. Haven’t played 2 yet)

As far as single-player goes, the ones above all have several hundred hours each (a couple of them well over 1000 lol), across countless play throughs lol

Screw driver or pocket knife works too.

Fun fact: Xenophobia just means “fear of “others”” (technically “fear of alien” but using the definition of alien that is “not like the observer”). So it can apply to any group- national, racial, religious, even regional or tribal.

It is the umbrella term for all interpersonal bigotry.

Growing up in Alabama we used to joke that the unofficial AL state motto is “Well, at least we ain’t Mississippi” and Mississippi’s motto is “Well, at least we ain’t Missis…AW DAMMIT”

I have felt a great disturbance… as if millions of jimmies suddenly became rustled and then fell silent

Way back in the way back we used to call comments like that “flame baiting”. It’s trying to start a fight, nothing more. Forums and BBs I moderated used to technically ban it, but generally the rule has always just been “don’t feed the trolls”. Meaning: don’t comment, don’t downvote, don’t bother reporting. They just want attention, the only thing that hurts them is realizing that this board will ignore them just as completely as their parents already do in real life.

This is the correct answer to the question that was asked by OP.

Well said.

I don’t believe the message here is “i don’t like what Reddit is doing, therefore it’s bad if I use Reddit” at all.

The point is: reddit couldn’t care less what you say. Reddit at this point only cares about traffic and metrics. How many items posted in the last 7days, how many unique logins over X period, how many views on ad trackers. That’s why it’s bad to log in. As P.T. Barnum once said-“There is no such thing as bad publicity”. Whether you say “fuck spez” or “spez is the second coming in the flesh, all hail” doesn’t matter at all. Just 1m logins, 2m new posts in the last 24 hours.
