  • I would never play it myself so I’m not sure how much this counts, but there’s something about Garten of Banban that keeps drawing me back to it whenever a new episode drops. I’m well aware it’s just some shitty bottom of the barrel reaction streamer/theory crafting bait and it’s mostly me wanting to see where the train wreck goes, but I think I’m enjoying it on an ironic level too.


  • Granted a lot of the failures with Anthem was thanks to corporate meddling, like EA forcing them to switch to an engine mid development that wasn’t equipped for the game they wanted to make as they insisted on using something in-house, and then forcing them to release it in an unfinished and buggy state. Iirc the devs even cared about the project too, but once again EA ruins something.

    I remember thinking it had some neat gameplay concepts from the footage I saw, it just needed more polishing.










  • I think it’s fine in moderation and when it’s some manually curated service like the children’s section of streaming platforms (but even then it’s not perfect considering Cocomelon exists), or in the case of YouTube you’re watching it WITH your kid to avoid running into anything weird (though I think any platform meant for content aimed towards children should be 100% manually curated). The problem is when it’s excessive or it winds up sending your five year old down a bizarre rabbithole of pregnant Spiderman twerking videos because you didn’t bother to moderate what they were watching.
