@nikicaga I think as a critique of the system, one which claims meritocracy and that wealth is broadly earned, they’re equally valid critiques of the form of capitalism we have now

One moral decay, the other a decay of competence

@DreamLeaf5 Should probably change the saying to empty musk

Empty husk is basically empty empty anyway

@FunkierTransfem @PatrickTmoney @ExodusPrimal You could dismiss the John 1:17 thing, but to do so in the face of literally every other religious allegory and overture is ludicrous

I likely read FoR before you were even cognisant kid, don’t accuse me of being a larper

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@FunkierTransfem @PatrickTmoney @ExodusPrimal The Flood.

The Covenant.

They were referred to as theocratic in Fall of Reach.

You can’t say religion wasn’t an aspect when it clearly was from the inception of the franchise.

@wjprescott @sueatcraven It was 25 years

There’s a certain point it’s your own damned fault for taking no curiosity in the outside world

In which case, why would you even expect or understand a pension?

@errjustsaying @ChristianJMay Thank God

@nickisafraud @JAHeale @mjrsumption If you squint

The problem is wages weren’t what grads were told when they were at school, and that they were all 16/17/18 when they made that decision.

This was communicated 25 years in advance.

@cgdav135 Nothing for defence, housing investment, jobs for the young people, working out how to maintain a work force with AI

But plenty for women that were warned 25 years in advance about a change in pension age to bring them to parity with men 🙃

@HistoricRecord @BellaWallerstei It effects us as the younger generation that already have a record burden providing to the old

@PatrickTmoney @FunkierTransfem @ExodusPrimal @Halo So @FunkierTransfem, who’s the larper?

Notice you’ve been quiet

I started with CE before 2 was released, and I read the books before I hit my teens

Wanna accuse me of larping halo bud?

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@tagg773 @thomasforth They’d generate less economic growth than if that money was given to families

@PatrickTmoney @FunkierTransfem @ExodusPrimal @Halo I realised the flood after hitting post

John 1:17

The obsession with 7’s, the number of angels

It’s always been an incredibly religion heavy game, it sparked my interest in religion as a topic

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@FunkierTransfem @ExodusPrimal @Halo Truth and reconciliation

I mean even the covenants name, and name for the ring is biblically inspired

@idontwa86202030 @alexmuellerfdp In fairness, this is more or less what the yanks do for development with multiple countries, could be benefits to having different fighter options at the end of the day

Nevermind that historically you’ve always had mixes, think hurricane/spitfire/mosquito/P-51 for examples

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@FunkierTransfem @ExodusPrimal @Halo Eh, it always was there

Fall of reach I think hints at it, though I read that book many moons ago, and it’s hinted at in 1 too

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@DansTrainRoom @jalkaru @notforredlights Often in non-negative context historically; ie. Groomed to lead a company, be a family air, to learn a certain trade etc

Over the decades and centuries it’s come to generally only be used negatively

@exfatloss @ThaBeefGames @revenant_MMXX You don’t like fun, that’s fine

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@exfatloss @ThaBeefGames @revenant_MMXX It isn’t, it’s one of the most consistently fun across generations

1, 2, 3, ODST reach all have fun campaign and MP, 4 good campaign, 5 great multiplayer, infinite was imo a bit mediocre in both

This isn’t awful for a 25 year franchise

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@exfatloss @ThaBeefGames @revenant_MMXX Cool, none of that applies to halo

[FourSkinners 🌹 @FourSkinners]

@exfatloss @ThaBeefGames @revenant_MMXX Why don’t they? In what way was halo’s multiplayer made worse by having a story?
