what a time to be alive
Pokemon go to the polls!
This isn’t weird, you just don’t like fortnite.
I don’t either, but I’m not exactly holding out for them to put a political ad scroll in noita.
Yes, it is still weird. Wewve just gotten used to it.
The weirdness of that stuff is the reason people don’t like fortnite.
I’m not sure how to have a conversation about this if weirdness has a secret definition. What is normal but the weird stuff you’re used to in life?
I don’t have a comprehensive definition of “weird”. But having “concerts” and election propaganda in a multiplayer shooter isn’t weird to you?
I heard there have been concerts in Minecraft that were popular. Anything beats doing it in Zuckerberg’s whatever thing, imo. Virtual concerts seem lame certainly, but some enjoy it.
As for election propaganda, video games are big media. Bigger than Hollywood. Whatever my preferences, it would be absurd to expect it to be some kind of ideological dead zone.
Like I said I feel pretty disinterested, but more on grounds of taste than any firm feelings of social norms.
I don’t remember my election propaganda in real movies released during election season
idk it certainly feels weird to me that videogames- even ones I don’t personally enjoy- are viewed as relevant enough to get this kind of political attention.
Realistically, if I take a step back from it I’m just stuck in 2008, but… yeah.
Besides, weird isn’t necessarily a requirement here. Just ‘it looks like satire but isn’t’.
Also: you have excellent taste in videogames. Noita is great.
