Yeah nah. Fuck you.

For context, this is worth a watch for some post Unreal and pre-GoW Epic MegaGames, and CliffyB's autobiography is worth a read too.

I used to like Tim Sweeney. A guy who rewarded hard work and loyalty, and when a big paycheque guaranteed the company's future.

Now, it's just a content stripping studio that fucks over any notion of creativity or loyalty. Fortnite - a really decent shooter at it's core - is just awash with lazy crossover MTX now, and I'm still fucking salty about how Save The World was left to die even when Battle Royale was bringing in megabucks.

To add insult to injury, there's a trove of early MegaGames titles begging for a 3D entry, or even just another decent Unreal game that could make the world forget about HL3 for five minutes.

Fuck you Epic. There's enough money and ideas to go around. They're just not staying in the company and going into greedy bastard's pockets.

As long as we don't do prequels.

Babylon 4 might have a bit of a delay.

~~I don't disagree with you. It's desperately sad~~.

edit: I'd made the erroneous assumption this was a reply to a higher level comment.

What is it that you're suggesting here?

It was the third clue that gave the game away for me.

I think this wondering you're doing is the root cause of your problem.

You've come up with an idea that I think there's any political upsides to war based on some assumption that I haven't quite figured out yet.

You've come up with an entire "rest of it" which doesn't really follow anything presented in the original post.

Your "gotcha" moment doesn't exist and is aimed at someone deeply saddened and angered by this pointless war.

No you illiterate fuck, I said I'd pay a little more at the pump to see one of the most narcissistic and dangerous world leaders get knocked down a peg or two on the world stage.

It's soul destroying seeing the human cost of such a conflict, but your virtue signalling is both misplaced and ineffective.

Yeah nah probably about a day or two.

I'm in a very very privileged position to be able to say this, but I am more than happy to pay a little bit extra at the pump and on my gas bill, just for that colossal fuckwomble to be shown up on the world stage for being a weapons grade tosser.

Is it childish? Yes. Does it make me feel slightly better about the world? Also yes.

I think I'd just disappoint both, but faster

That's outstanding! Fantastic effort!

Even if I did, I don't think I've got the physical or mental ability to disappoint two women at once!!

That's a Pearl Abyss and a half
