But isn't everything a waste of time, if you stop to think about it? In the end, all of our accomplishments, memories, regrets, and relationships will be reduced to null. Everyone from the poor to the rich to the kind hearted to the greedy will all end up as nothing but dust. It is only natural to feel a sense of longing and heartache as a result of any action we take in life. Every moment we live, we are losing what could have been. Every choice we make is a rejection of another. But we can also embrace this concept. Proceed forward with the knowledge that nothing will ever satisfy our endless desire to live life to its fullest. Any moment that is even mildly satisfying is a gift, even if the source is something novel and temporary. If you enjoyed it, then it was time well spent.

Yeah…if Joel is evil because of killing people while trying to survive…well that qualifies a vast number of video game characters that kill for less.

I mean, Lara Croft could just choose not to do the thrill seeking tomb raider thing, and live out her wealthy trust fund life, once she realized it involves killing countless mercenaries that get in the way. But no, she chooses that life.

Buddy, not everyone is bots.. but there's definitely alot of clues as to who is, and you'd be surprised how many there are. You should really question your reality if you believe everything you read online :).

When any opinion questions the mainstream opinion is downvoted to oblivion immediately, one assumes a narrative.

Is it really that fuckin outrageous to keep politics out of games?

I played in on Game Pass bc I found the arguments against the devs unconvincing and tenuous, particularly given how Russia treats their citizens who speak out. But I’m not going to decry the people who decided differently from me.

People aren’t bots btw, don’t be dismissive just because you need to construct an alternate reality in your head to feel special.
