ILLUSTRIOUS'S PROFILE

"Toasty!"

We let the fresh games disappear from view when we tolerate people gaming the front page. It's a disservice to someone wanting their game to be exposed for the first time to just allow a wave of 4 repeat games take them off the front page in a heartbeat. For this reason, no game should reappear except under a strict timer. IMO this should be some months. Yes, bugfixing is a legitimate thing and I do not call that gaming the system. But this should not bump someone who is getting their initial (and maybe only) exposure off the page. This situation makes it as if that game got some kind of penalty because another game had bugs.

I would rather see my mayhem in the form of games, movies and literature. It's just not cool to those who must deal with it in real life. A lot of times rioters are just thugs are people who would want to engage in violent activity regardless and hope the amount of people involved in the riot helps give them more anonymity. I wish I could say that this riot gave off a sense of legitimacy, but how many people can even see the point in this?

On another point, Legitimate protesting. Even if you do not condone violence, do you think there is much room for peaceful protests anymore? Most western governments know how to systematically control and marginalize the voice of protesters. Some really rapid and sweeping changes need to occur for the betterment of large numbers of people in many countries. I feel a lot of regret when I say it seems forceful protests are almost the only way to get things done. I am at a loss because I really don't like seeing harm done to anyone.

"The shooting was only the trigger to the riots. There are other undermining factors that contributed to it."

Again, this violence did not make sense. With the cost of the damage that has been done, I wish the media would have presented the underlying dissatisfaction of the masses (of a far greater picture) rather than a rallying behind what happened to one person. Not to sound callous. Sadly, it's too hard to use these rioters to make any kind of statement, as they are such bad examples.

Come back to RMN and write more beast articles!

This is what I have wanted to see.


Regarding this article, I think of Forever's End. It shares a lot of the things described that make it hard to pick up the game.
