You don’t really believe there will be elections again, do you?

As long as you’re having fun mate! I will say, the music is FANTASTIC!

Almost forgot to mention that you’ll also need to suffer through 5000 thoughtless lines of dialogue about how great and inspiring your companions find you no matter what dialogue option you choose. Pure banality.

Metaphor was way more formulaic than I expected. The second half was a slog because they follow a rigid structure that ends up more linear than Persona despite what the travel system would lead you to think.

There’s usually only one viable activity to do each day and the side quests are structured in a way that you can do them all each chapter with one ‘trip’. Okay time for your regularly structured dungeon with undeniably evil villain to defeat at the end. Nothing you haven’t seen in persona 30 times already.

Other than that the ‘political’ aspect of the game was ‘pick the most vanilla and uncontroversial choice at every opportunity and luckily you are always the good guy and the world will contrive itself around giving you this status.’

Honestly, I regret paying full price.

Why would we flood the streets? Invest the money in public projects, services, etc. People work them as jobs, now we have more middle class - other businesses make money selling them services - the economy grows.

For an example of this working in America look up Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “New Deal”.

I’m just very charmed by your CharmOffesive comrade! I cannot help myself - I’m compelled to reply~😍

Dang, nobody spent 20 minutes of their life citing sources about a tangentially related topic you randomly sprung on them in a Lemmy comments section? Instead they had negative reactions? They must be sinophobic - stay strong brother your next comment will surely win the lurkers over ✊

I just grow ‘em suspended in goo-filled chambers these days, we just transfuse wherever

“Chinese app”? I’m sensing some defensiveness here.

Using any for profit data harvesting app has great financial incentive to negatively impact anyone, evidence based government back-doors or not.

I’m sure there’s some lovely Chinese-made fediverse wrappers or locally hosted communities with good moderation. Idk, I don’t speak Chinese.

I didn’t say anything about worse.

They really have cut off their nose to spite their face imo. Only way this makes sense to me is that the users want a noble justification for their ignoble habit.

I hope you one day realize that only a subset of possible partners are like this and that you can find more emotionally intelligent people if you’re willing to spend time and effort putting yourself out there. It will improve your life greatly in the long run
