Don't fight the soldiers.

Fight the people who pay them, the ruling class.

Where are the good ones speaking out against this injustice?

Right now, it looks like they're all taking the Nuremberg Defense ("I was just doing my job!") that Nazis used after WW2.

Can we get the name of that corrupt judge?

Pithos, it's a desktop client for Pandora.

it’s just as much the childrens home as the parents

Yikes. The entitlement of the next generation knows no bounds.

I totally agree.

Most of the rules are bullshit and mods ban whoever they want whenever they feel like it.

Just don't respect their decisions, ignore them when you can, and try to find communities with less abuse.

Laptops and gaming laptops deserve way more respect than they get.

I think a lot of people are miserable because so much of their life is tied to a desktop.

You are too far gone because you spend too much time on the internet.

I'm going to ignore you now.

I'd honestly say the opposite of a cult is another cult.

My understanding of cult is a group of people with an absurd or even possibly nefarious belief system. Like something negative.

That's typically what people view a cult as, but it's not really correct. We use the word 'cult' negatively because it's almost always used as an excuse for a majority to persecute a minority.

You don't have to be in a minority to be part of a cult. Being part of a majority also doesn't mean you're not in a cult.

This is bad for the integrity of the community.

 

I personally think 3 is peak, and I'm probably not alone in that.

It seems like it aligns the most with what the 'core' idea of Devil May Cry should be. There aren't really gimmicks. There isn't bad design. It's simple, but done well.

The rest of the games in the series? They all leave a lot to be desired.

I'd say the first one comes the closest to reaching DMC3's heights.

Devil May Cry 2 is well, you know.

4 starts off phenomenally, but then it turns out to only be half a game. I will never forgive them for that backtracking bullshit. It should always be a stain on everyone's criticism of the game.

I've only played a little bit of 5, but I wasn't too impressed. It's certainly not bad, but I don't think it comes close to reaching the level of DMC3. Switching characters honestly isn't that great, because odds are I will prefer to play as a certain character which makes playing as others a chore.

So... what's left? Looking at it in retrospect under a critical lens makes me think that most games in the series just aren't that great. They're certainly not bad, but not something I can replay expecting them to be consistent with the best in the series.

Compared to something like God of War, where some may argue all of the games are spectacular, Devil May Cry falls woefully short.

 

It looks like they're speedrunning to the finish line to get things over with as quickly as possible.

Since nothing is going to stand in their way, how can we make sure they are held accountable for generations to come?

Maybe we can have a day of remembrance for the Palestinians.

I'm afraid that once Israel has completed their genocide, the media cycle and influencers will ensure its never spoken about again.

How do we keep it fresh in people's minds until the perpetrators and/or their offspring face justice?

 

It always seemed like a kiddie game that's not meant to be taken seriously, but apparently a bunch of people in their 20s and 30s take it very seriously.

Why? Isn't it pretty much random and unfair by design?

Do people really get hours of fun out of losing races due to catch-up mechanics?
