    Regarding FF7 Remake, I’d say it might be fun if you just want to play an action RPG, but once you get to about the midway point of the first game, the story gets impossible to follow if you’re unfamiliar with the plot.

    The remake definitely assumes you’ve already played the original, as it’s not a 1:1 replication at all. There’s a ton of foreshadowing and specific story deviations, which won’t make any sense if you don’t know how the story first played out.

    Without giving anything away, you can kind of think about it as if you were seeing the same story from another vantage point. Most stuff overlaps, but you also get new information, and some old information is only hinted at or isn’t mentioned at all.

    Lots of stuff from the original has been cut for pacing, and new stuff added, so it really does feel like a completely different experience. Of the remakes, I’ve only played the first game, but Im waiting for the whole thing to be done so I can get the collection.

    I said no such thing, and I’m not sure what type of victims you think “deserve to be bullied”

    People who stand out from the herd are those that are either idolized or shunned, depending on other factors. But bullies target those who they think they can victimize. So as I said in my first comment, its not really about anime or specific hobbies, at all.

    Anime was never a problem. Sailor moon, Pokémon, and DBZ were super mainstream, and you had stuff like Voltron and Speed Racer before that.

    The issue is people who either only talk about their hobby, try to force other people into it, or in the case of anime, expect real life to be the same way or act it out themselves (see naruto running comment in OP’s screenshot)



  • If someone is not willing to get involved and organize, run for office themselves, or any one of many different ways to influence the system, voting is literally the easiest thing they can do. Even people who are actively shaking up the system should also be doing this bare minimum thing.

    So if the goal is not to vote in order to protest the blah blah blah… No one will know or care about their protest unless they mention how they don’t vote as often as possible.

    The problem with this is its they’re either seeking validation and trying to seem morally superior, or they are trying to influence others not to vote. Either way, I hate when people brag about not voting, it should be something you’re ashamed of.

    1. To make sure the commercial real estate industry doesn’t fail
    2. Because it would be made obvious how unnecessary most middle managers are

    Edit additional bonus content:

    Many economies have the daily commute factored in. Think about how industries like auto, oil, road construction, fast food, etc… Would be affected if everyone worked from home.
