I use “honestly” or “to be honest” myself sometimes.

It’s a simple way to convey “I’m going to give you a risky or unpopular opinion. Can be unpopular with you personally, or for public in general. But either way I value the honesty of sharing that opinion over the unpopularity it will cause”

I can see why you would hate it. it wouldn’t be unusual for people to share bigoted/sexist/violent opinions on subjects they should keep to themselves.

I’m sorry to hear about your son, and I apologise if my comment brought up some difficult memories.

For me, it was my best friends funeral and his family had an insufferablely god-fearing priest speaking for part of it who knew him from his childhood. He was telling stories were “he found God”, “god has now welcomed him” and “he now knows God’s love”. I don’t recall exactly what he said word for word, I just remember quietly seething throughout his whole speech and also afterwards my other best friends were venting that the whole thing was disrespectful to his memory.

My friend wasn’t religious in the slightest. it felt like a complete stranger trying to convince a room of grieving people comforting lies that he is “in a better place”, when it was clear he didn’t know him at all.

“God loves you” is fine for me. they are usually simply wishing us happiness in their own way (sure it can be passive-aggressively throw to people they call “sinners” too).

What I really despise is “god has a plan” as words of comfort.

A plan for fucking what? Noahs ark V2? cleverly getting around the “promise not to flood the earth” clause by having greedy assholes pollute the earth in his stead ?

“Ah little 4 year old Andrew would fuck up my plans, better give him cancer… Hm, let’s hit Jane with a truck just incase”

I don’t appreciate that you somehow think a magic man in the sky planning something so cruel would be of any comfort to me.

Of course it is exaggerated. That is the point of a hyperbolic arguments.

Examining hypothetical edge cases in more detail is a useful tool for defining where the issues lie in a debate.

Would you support/play a game of 100+ devs if key management DID commit war crimes? I’d like to think probably not.

It’s though it is clear from your response that misogyny isn’t a deal-breaker for you for this case, so the question then becomes; how shitty does a single person need to be before it becomes an issue for you then?

Other people drew a line in the sand at misogyny and there is nothing wrong with that. In fact I’d say it is a respectable opinion.

You probably would prefer to just ignore any controversy and just judge the game on its merits alone, and that is fine in its own way too. It is exhausting keeping up with the news and you would be happier and find it easier to just blindly enjoy a game.

But don’t pretend that just because you are ignoring it, doesn’t mean that you aren’t supporting bad practices like misogyny when you do so.

Edit: downvoted for not wanting to pay attention to stupid controversy about video games? Weird…

It’s one thing to live peacefully in ignorance. I get it. it is exhausting keeping track of every shitty thing a company does when it’s so much easier at the end of an exhausting 9-5 shift to avoid news and play your games guilt free without thinking about who it’s hurting.

It’s a completely separate thing to brag that your ignorance somehow makes your way of life superior.

People caring about these issues, and sometimes leading to actions being taken because of that, all makes the gaming industry, or to be hyberbolic; the world a better place.

It’s fine to avoid news on controversy and just blindly enjoy games, but don’t lie to yourself (and others) by pretending that it is a good thing.

Oh, but those Activision scumbags had no issue with this hype boosting MW1 sales right up until the day before the mods planned release date.

It’s one thing shutting down a modders passion project, it’s a complete other level of evil to allow it to proceed right up until release date because it boosted sales for an otherwise dead game.

I hope negative press from this tanks their sales, but we all know it won’t.

May want to wait and see if the new warbond this week is worth it.

That said here are the ones I’m interested in:

Steeled Veterans has the incendiary breaker which is amazing for fighting bugs. It also has the Dominator which is a good pick for bots. Not much else going for it, but two good primaries are pretty nice to have.

Haven’t gotten into the other packs yet, but heard good things for few of them.

Viper commando seems like a great pick: The armour passive is really good due to the faster aim, the booster is really good but niche, the shotgun secondary is powerful but slow, the knife is niche too but a fun gimmick to try, and there is lots of cool customisation options for hell pod/etc.

The one I’m planning to pick up next is democratic detonation: I’m picking this almost purely for the grenade pistol as closing bug holes with a secondary would be handy. Especially on search and destroy. Though the primaries are pretty good too from what I hear.

Not to mention that a lot of companies pay the minimum price needed for a camera for insurance purposes, as insurance is supposed to cover the damages.

They only need to show that a crime was committed, not who committed it.

He must be good at poker, I heard he changed that shitty hand for a much better one.

I think it is supposed to be lips.

See the red parts? That looks like lipstick.

Internet ruined me so I assumed it was supposed to be another orifice at first until it looked a little too odd.

I partly agree with you, but not completely. There are benefits to claiming you are ADHD, like in the UK being covered as a disability, thus employers are required to make reasonable adjustments for work comfort e.g. Noise cancelling headphones.

People without ADHD that claim to be can shew the expectations of what ADHD people go through in the wrong direction.

That said: I ended up waiting like 3 years for my diagnosis (and I had to chase those bastards every single time for a response), so if my employer didn’t trust me and wasn’t understanding of my struggles I would have been sacked by now.

That said; needing to pay £1,000s to get essential mental health care is outrageous. I’d take a reasonable self-assessment any day over expecting people to pay that.

But I wish people would stop voting for the government party that trying to convince them that immigrants are stealing jobs and they should underfund health care to keep the economy safe.

You sure he’s fine? It sounds like he has nothing left!

Also Google their sister company. Company number: 11933362

I don’t think any of these are planets.

Though one interesting thing is that Ligma was actually the name of a company incorporated in England and Wales that provided IT consulting services.

It has the company number: 12243748. Google the company number and see for yourself.
