It's a remaster of a game from 2006 with a fresh coat of paint and some QOL changes and that's basically all it ever could be. 70% of the game did not age well and they honestly did the best they could. If they did a complete remake and "modernized" the game all the old-school fans would be pissed. If they kept it as true to the original as possible besides a facelift they'd make it harder for new players to want to pick it up. I feel like a good 7/10 was the best they could shoot for under most circumstances.

And if you ask anyone where Bethesda fell off, depending on which game was their first, they will all give you a different answer. For me Morrowind and Oblivion are the best in the series and that's with over 500 hours in Skyrim. They've been dumbing their games down with each new iteration since the 90s as they try to "modernize" the newest game each time and reach new audiences. Like, good luck playing Morrowind or Daggerfall these days without losing your patience in a matter of hours. And Morrowind especially is barely playable without mods these days.

I still hated Starfield, though. Gave it the old college try and left so underwhelmed I couldn't tell you a damn thing about the story.

I highly doubt that's the reason, but if it is we need to be louder and more disruptive. I think we are far past the point of just hanging out for a 2 hour protest twice a month. I think it's time for strikes. I think it's waaay past time for strikes.

At the same time though, now that things like that are already out in the open it's going to be a lot harder. I've already seen videos of people yelling at cops that are harassing and questioning alleged immigrants.

Great!

His "make America great again" stance is really only accomplishing "make everyone else but America great again." No matter which way America goes, whether its full fascism or a better democracy, within the next 5-10 years someone else is going to take America's role economically and politically on a global scale. This man has single handedly destroyed whatever remaining good faith the US had left.

That's what I find so crazy. Like, how narcissistic do you have to be to give this much of shit about ruling with an iron fist, fucking over poor people, and giving anyone that pays him enough whatever they want? He's got like 5 years tops with how awful he treats his body and how old he is. Either he's completely batshit crazy (very possible) or so deteriorated that he honestly has no idea what's going on (Also very possible)

The Democrats that are in office are just as detached from reality and the everyday person as Republicans are. Both parties are basically dead at this point and unless you wanna vote for a literal fuck ton of shit you don't agree with you are shit out of luck. None of them wanna give people things like affordable healthcare or workers the rights they deserve anymore. The fact that no matter which side you choose can't even definitively decide if transgender people should be treated like people or that corporations are ruining the country is pretty telling about how fucked it all is.

Whenever I used to meet women republicans I would always bring up how the other republicans don't really care about their point of view and just want their votes. For example, if they are against abortion because they believe that it is actually murder, I respect their opinion even if I disagree with them. But I would always tell them that the people, specifically republican men, are not agreeing with them for the same reason. They don't care about whether or not it's murder, they just want to control women's bodies and turn them into breeders. It's never been about the unborn and it's always been about the fact that these men don't believe women have the right to deny them their future children.

People used to say that my opinion on the matter is extreme and that they couldn't possibly think of women like that. But now here we are in the year of our Lord 2025 and the government's religious advisor is saying that women need to submit to men. And I'm sure before we can even blink they'll be trying to remove women from public office and get rid of their right to vote. They're already firing them under the pretense of DEI.

I want him to lose it so badly that he starts blaming this administration for everything that happened to him and starts going off against them. That'd be hilarious.

"Oh no! The consequences of my actions!"

Nah fuck this guy. We need to make Nazis unforgivable again. None of this halfway bullshit or trying to see their side of the story.

They're barely over half the population these days. That's a lot of people you are making your enemy if they start pushing this shit further.

Is there one to get rid of the "piss" filter they put over the game? That's really my only complaint so far.

Edit: There is! I knew this would be one of the first ones out of the gate.
