See, Joyce took 20 years to write a single book that's mostly glossolalia! Gurm is doing twice as well while also railing rear end!

Pat's whole gimmick is that he has opinions that follow logic only he understands and contradicts himself

Remember a long time ago when he said OS's are cheating even though he plays Third Strike and Virtua Fighter 5

On the podcast this week Woolie said "that lie trailer". All I could think of was the trailer for Fable with it came out. EVERY CHOICE. EVERY SINGLE ACTION. NO MATTER WHAT THERE WILL BE REACTIONS AND CONSEQUENCES. NO MATTER HOW SMALL IT WILL SHAPE YOUR DESTINY AND THE WORLD AROUND YOU. Then you basically were pure evil or pure good. And only like... 1 or 2 choices in the game mattered.

In a world where Hideaki Anno released his eva movies on time and they weren’t an exercise in him browbeating the audience into submission I’d totally be calling Pat a madman.

But the problem is, this is earth, Anno’s an rear end, GRRM is fart-arsing and Pat is right in all realms bar the realistic (regarding the refund thing).

Is it really bad for a prolific writer to stop writing when they hit it big and make enough money to never have to work again, especially considering how stressful writing for a living can be?

Like sure it's definitely disappointing and go ahead and complain but making value judgements over it seems a bit much.

Emotional appeals? I'll give you a loving emotional appeal, you miserable poo poo.

I knew a woman who died. Bone cancer, lung cancer, a different bone cancer somehow, obesity, and also some sort of muscular distrophy I don't know the details of, all at the age of seventy. She died real slow--she spent the last year in her apartment, being cared for by her husband, unable to leave. She had good days and bad days, and on the good days she would fade in and out. She couldn't hold a book up to read it, which was hell for a writer. She couldn't watch television because she missed too much of the plot. She couldn't go places. The long, shouting arguments spirited debates she liked to engage in were entirely too exhausting. She couldn't enjoy the foods that made her so goddamn fat. She certainly couldn't write any more.

But she could still play video games. Skyrim moved at exactly her pace. When she was active, she could play the games she'd loved since before most of us goons were born. And when she faded, or drifted off, or when holding the controller limply in her lap was too much, that was fine. Accessibility settings had left her character invincible. Dialog didn't auto-proceed, so if she got tired part way through a conversation, it would patiently wait for her to come back. Combat, travel, inventory management, all of it would advance only when she was there. She spent the end of her life fighting the Draughr.



She was lucky--Skyrim was a game that would accommodate her. If she had been playing one of Hidetaka Miyazaki's games, he wouldn't have allowed her to ruin his artistic vision, and a dying old woman would have been stripped of one of the few pleasures she still had. So Hidetake Miyazaki can go gently caress himself.

And if you want to say she wasn't playing the game right, you can go gently caress yourself too.

I mean, I know it's just fiction books but absolutely keep putting the screws to rich people for absolutely any transgression.

Anyway, someone lemme know when Pat finally starts streaming Dragon Quest 11 again, the 2 hours of gamplay between his 11 hour long in total streams was really funny.
