    bethesda announces game concept.

    people freak.

    bethesda announces game. 

    people hype.

    bethesda starts hyping the game.

    people go fucking nuts hyping the game as a result. their social media team plants those seeds to make it look organic.

    a year or more of speculation occurs.

    todd howard being his little schmuck self comes out and boasts about their new game.

    people lose their god damn minds.

    whispers of shitty gameplay start occurring closer to launch.

    the masses tell those people to fuck off how could they know, dishonest review etc etc.

    the big names in game reviews all review it and give it out of the park amazing reviews.

    people go batshit crazy. people are out in the streets killing their parents for a chance at the new bethesda god game.

    the game is released and is somewhat playable but jesus fuck is it lacking, it’s buggy, and every character looks like they’ve been updated from skyrim graphics of yore. the story sucks. the game play is empty but goddamn is there a lot to explore.

    everyone rushes in like a madman.

    everyone realizes the gameplay sucks.

    people start bitching.

    others say “oh don’t worry, DLC and user created mods will fill the game out nicely.”

    years pass.

    the unpaid modding community pours their heart and soul into making the game not fucking suck.

    after all the DLC has come out (all with mostly positive or mixed reviews on steam) the game will go dark for a year or so.

    todd howard wakes from his capitalist vampire coma needing fresh life force. the blood money of his unsuspecting idiot fans.

    todd howard makes it into the office and says we could make a new game or we can milk this game for the next decade and a half. quick come up with names to rerelease the game under. game of the year edition. complete edition. master edition. elite edition. remastered. remastered complete. anything works!

    over the course of the next three decades, todd howard is fed the blood of bethesda’s fan base.

    he is swollen, like a fat tick upon his harkonen throne, waiting to burst.

    “the people. they call for a NEW game”, he says, a devilish sneer contorts his face.

    and the cycle continues.

    and these fucking idiots. every goddamn time.





  • oh there are lots of ways.

    unfortunately a lot of the time, it doesn’t get any easier.

    that being said, it all starts with knowing and understanding that, if you love who you are, those mistakes helped make you who you are.

    personally that helped me come to peace with the fact that i had fucked up so badly.

    next is atonement to yourself and others. that means learning to prevent the mistake from occurring again in the future, helping others that you recognize are making the same mistake so that they don’t have to suffer like you did, and if you hurt someone, apologizing to that person for both their and your own healings sake. sometimes it also means apologizing to yourself.

    you do have to understand, though, that people change over time. our mistakes make us who we are. and you are not the same person you were when you originally made the mistake.

    last and most unpleasant advice i can give is to allow the feelings to wash over you. our brain is capable of experiencing so many emotions, and each emotion serves a very important purpose. we tend to lead lives that shy away from the unpleasant emotions, but there is value to be had in experiencing them. feeling the shame of making a mistake can drive you to never make that mistake again. that’s valuable, even if it is unpleasant for a time.

    it gets better bro.

    IIRC from the reddit thread i saw it in, someone translated it, and it is 100% accurate and talks about building a life for his family out in the west, building the railroads. the work is hard but the people are good to me. i wish you all well and miss you much. that kinda thing.












  • the fuck you talking about it’s a perfect example of an image meme.

    it conveys an easy to consume message that can be virally spread to the masses with ultra speed

    the fact that you understand the reference and you’ve already seen it multiple times before this was posted here… both of those facts ruin your claim.

    sincerely, one of the old ones that was around for the inception of internet memes such as dancing baby.

    it’s a meme bruh.
