Patch notes, dev vision and Deadpool trailer are releasing today
What are you hoping for? Besides the obvious Hela/Hawkeye/Phoenix/Daredevil/Invis/Gambit nerfs

Personally, I want to see vanguard Deadpool with a regeneration gimmick. It'd be cool as shit if he respawned on his death spot instead of in the spawn.

It's X-men. A story that is particularly an allegory for racism in a media that has been particularly dominated by liberal Jews.
>but it used to be...
It was ALWAYS woke for its time. Shit like this was always there to push the needle of normalization of liberal ideals. It was only ever as non-woke as it needed to be, to be an effective vehicle for the message. The same practically goes for all comic book superheroes. As well as most forms of visual media these days.

Then they showed her back story, and she was a part of a fucking swat team. While she was still a fat pile of shit. And they sold it completely straight.

Your dog loves me, a stranger that has learned to tolerate dogs, with the same intensity as you the person that loves dogs.
Your dog will ignore you saying "Come here [retarded dog name]" as I pet him. I pet him not because I particularly like him (nor do I hate him, I am in fact indifferent to him) and know that it makes you seethe internally that I could say "Come on [retarded dog name], get in the car!" and your dog would leave with me to his new life forever without one single thought about you.

He doesn't live in the past though. The past to him is an illusion, not reality. You still don't understand the philosophy. By killing him you prove you are the one living in illusions, which is also why he is fine with this fate. He has already purified himself no matter what you decide to do.

You don't have a point, you have a bunch of greentext in all caps because you desperately want TLOU2 to be considered a good revenge story. A good revenge story ends with the protagonist actually getting their revenge, TLOU2 did not end that way. Fact is, most people find getting revenge to be incredibly cathartic, the inverse that catharsis comes from breaking the cycle of revenge is simply not true.

all caps doesnt make your point any sharper. John Wick is a killer who lost everything he cared about to evil thugs, so he kills them. That's it.

Ellie doesn't get revenge. John Wick does.
Ellie: 0

If Cuckman wrote John Wick, he would have had John Wick kill 200 people with dubious morals, gotten to the shitbag who killed his dog, and then break down crying and let him go, because killing is like bad and stuff.

The quote is from a guy at GOG before the buyout. The owner says they have to reevaluate the idea.

people see a game with less than 10 reviews and assume it failed because it's bad
oftentimes, they are incorrect
the game failed because the developer severely overestimated the organic exposure their game would receive purely from existing on steam
valve has kept the requirement of external initial promotion as a subtle secret for indies, letting people shadow drop games in hopes that enough people will play it for it to blow up, but this never happens
you must generate at least $10,000 of gross revenue within a 14 day period, at any point during your games existence on steam, for valve to consider it a "real" game and begin promoting it
we see many games flop because the developer assumed they would enjoy fair discoverability, drop their game, receive low reviews, and then cement their game as a failure due to potential buyers assuming it's bad because of its low review count
very brutal cycle
the meta promo strat is to spam promotional content on youtube shorts, farm enough wishlists to estimate that 10k in 14 day revenue period, and then hope your game is actually good enough to continue gaining momentum on steam once it experiences real algorithmic promotion
