I want Matt to refine his criticism because right now as it stands his lack of experience with gaming itself makes his argument come off more like an old man's rant
Don't get me wrong though i can see the central point of his argument.

he would be able to make a much stronger case if he knew more about video games. During the debate he went off on this tangent about how video games train you to see every person as an enemy or emotionless, or something, and you could tell he was losing the audience. There's so many purely co-op games, or even single player games like Walking Dead or Persona that are built around having an emotional reaction to characters
I agree but I think he's got at least the inkling of a point there. For example, the logic of libertarianism makes perfect sense if and only if the world is a MMO.

The outro music that Amber (the best Chapo) mentioned is this:

It's an Italian production of nonsense English meant to sound like how non-English speakers hear American English.
When they started talking about it, I just assumed she meant either Miko Mission's "How Old Are You" or Scotch's "Disco Band." Both of which contain real English words but no coherent sentences.

yeah, the show is loving terrible. i quit watching and then came back for negan and got bored again. the main actor is leaving the show(can't blame him) so now its gonna be even dumber and worse. like at least with game of thrones and westworld, stuff happens and its interesting. i think what killed the show was that they pushed the seasons to be super loving long( i think like 20 episodes) which kills shows like that.
They began receiving criticism for "long seasons where nothing happens" in the 2nd season.

as they should, the biggest issue they have is their seasons are like 20 or so episodes, which basicaly always mean tons of pointless fluff. it doesn't help that they basicaly can't get away with much outside violence. at least with GOT and westworld and others, they are compact and have tits and dicks.

yeah, pretty much. i think he has some good points but its gets buried under dumb poo poo. also i weirdly think he would be amused/maybe like assassins creed. you hang out with marx and help him out and do magical historical tours.

there's actually something extremely and painfully relevant to the modern age with the rise of Jomny Sun and endless supply and variations of memes where in the humor lies in the deliberate image or syntactical quality degredation (fake jpg artifact-ed images, the "wordplay" of swapping a few letters of a word or loving up a meme format to look deliberately bad)
