ok I got into an argument with someone in my media class yesterday so I’m just gonna say it:
No video game should cost $70.
I’m sure the new Zelda game will be great, but no video game should cost $70. “But if you adjust for inflation, this is actually less than what the Wii games were,” cool. No video game should cost $70.
We no longer live in a world where a kid could save up their allowance for a couple months and then be able to buy a video game. Just buying one has somehow turned into such a grandiose adventure it takes all of the fun out of getting a new game.
The only possible benefit might be that, with games being so expensive, people might be more likely to pick up an indie game because those companies can’t afford to sell those games for a lot.
This is becoming normal. I used to be able to buy four ds games for $70. What the hell.
And you know damn well that Nintendo can afford it.
Felt like doing something picture book like.
me and my mutuals reblogging tumblr posts
There needs to be way, way more of a conversation about how being unable to drive in America means you don’t get to participate in society. That shit is genuinely life ruining. My neuro shit has kept me from driving my whole life and it’s always meant I can’t go do stuff I want to, I can’t get the trade jobs I know I’d be good at, I can’t even see the people I want to. Unless you’re in one of a handful of major cities in the US with decent transit systems, you’re basically expected to drop dead if you can’t drive.
What bugs me is that the proposed “solution” for this never seems to be more public transport infrastructure. Self driving cars, easier to drive cars, ride share, like y'all just build a fucking t r a i n. you get a good municipal electric rail system? suddenly you have a lot more accessibility, AND traffic goes down because fewer people need to drive. AND AND auto manufacturers can start making good, fun cars again because the consumer base goes from “people who need the simplest vehicle in history because driving is a necessity” to “people who can actually drive and want to.” this is a win for everyone.
