Because they probably didn't and thought "this would make a funny green text" instead

Death Stranding's environment was directly inspired by Iceland, after all

Owning a cat gives you far more detailed knowledge of cat buttholes than you'd like

I know that my depression goes into remission sometimes, so I never know if I pulled myself out of it or if it just... Stopped

I still don't know what exactly it was about Assassins Creed Odyssey that made it work so well for me overall, but I liked the level scaling in it. Areas had a minimum level, so I'd try to go there at lower levels and get my ass beat. But being higher level didn't make the areas that much easier, because they would scale up to me. What gave me a feeling of progression was my available toolkit to deal with enemies as time went on.

It's a joke about writing slurs and censoring them with an asterisk, implying Gamer is a slur

And tech bros want to be rich people

They wanted it to be a live service, which is famously expensive to develop. They have to pay people to be constantly developing content on top of the insane prices of releasing and marketing a AAA game in the first place. Usually these games make money through microtransactions and/or subscription fees but no one wanted to play the game in the first place so hardly anyone was buying any of the extra content after initial release.

I always hated Reanimator because it was one of the few times he actually described a black man and it was awful lol

I also found a lot of the "nerd culture" felt like it was written by people who don't get it at all. I've always thought of it as "a show for mothers of nerdy autistic kids to laugh at"

I worked at a Walmart front end with decent managers for a couple years, and having decent managers makes so much difference. Had a lady who came in and was screaming at my manager because I put bread in the same bag on top of her eggs and was "going to giver her baby Salmonella." She told my manager not to put it on the shelf because it was "infected" and my manager just put it right back up on the shelf where she got it and got a different one. Some people just really want to scream at a cashier man
