Pretty accurate

Not to mention the needlessly complex combat systems that are extremely vaguely communicated on the screen, and the endlessly boring fetch quest design, and the obscenely frustrating world traversal that makes the game an absolute chore to get through, even if the actual story content moments or characters in the game weren't literal anime trash

Maybe I irrationally hate this game but whatever, I deleted it off my Switch and I'm not going back

I’ve seen a bit of the game and the combat system seems like a bet between developers over who could overdesign a combat system more. And I’ll watch some flaming anime trash, but it needs to be good, fun trash like Naruto or Attack on Titan. Xeno-boob is lacks a sense of fun.

I hold thorin in very low regard, as you know, but it's not acceptable to mock people with mental handicaps for those handicaps. (Thorin has diagnosed autism, if you didn't know)

And in general, try to attack people less.

It is, however, incredibly rich to suggest that thorin has any space whatsoever to ever be offended by basically any insult ever, but that doesn't make said insults acceptable. Reddit's take on it is pretty bad. Note how the tweet refrains from calling anybody an "autistic piece of shit"

Both are in the wrong;
Mocking someone with autism is bad
Being Thorin is bad

Thinking about a canadian documentary called "jefftowne."
It follows a guy with down syndrome who also happens to be a terrible person. The moral of the documentary is that intellectually disabled people are just like "normal" people,, in that they can also be scumbags worthy of scorn

Why do people hate Thorin? Not trying to play dumb. I get the general gist of it. And from what I've seen, absolutely some of his opinions are very retarded. But I wonder if there's a list or something.

Also worth saying that the Dota content I saw from him was pretty good and surprisingly accurate from a non exclusively Dota person. And I saw his Dune video and that was cool too.

My buddy just got a switch + XBC2, so I'll probably be borrowing and playing it in the near future. XBC was a surprising and excellent experience for me, but I've heard middling reports for XBC2 and XBC:X was pretty awful so I don't hold high hopes.

Nah, more than that. He went to the white house and did some really odd rant about how Clinton's slogan made him feel left out, that he was a crazy motherfucker, and ... well I (and I assume every sane person) lost the point of what he was trying to say.

Then he went to an apple store nearby and did an additional speech (?)

he's had some interesting opinions, some of which merits some discussion

his 13th amendment rant was more about the prison system incarcerating more minorities and forcing them to work for pennies, which really equates (in his mind, at least) to modern day legalized slavery
on the other hand idk how someone's brain goes from discussing fairly serious issue that should be addressed by robust congressional legislation to abolishment of a landmark constitutional amendment

and then on other topics like globalization and outsourcing of lowskilled labor he makes the classic myopic argument of bringing jobs home but gets too granular
globalization and automation is supposed to free up the rest of your population to move to more efficient higher skill tasks
and trade imbalances are never a zero sum game

He is the poster child for the internet personality that churn out callous, racist assholes from their fan base. People hate him because he chuns out hate.
