i sometimes see people saying things along the lines of "X story and Y story tackle the same 'woke' issue but you still like X story even though you hate Y story so you're just a hypocrite!"

what these people fail to understand about "the message" and "woke" shit is that it isn't abrasive because of the actual topic, it's abrasive because of the way the topic is delivered.

it's the difference between things being tryhard and being genuine. between trying to appeal to a certain demographic (or repel one) and being tactful.

the interesting thing is that, by and large, this is an issue with those who create things on both sides of the political spectrum. however, the people who actually consume it on the left far outnumber those on the right, seemingly. it shows to me that the left doesn't exactly care how a story is told or a character is portrayed, only that it is something that they agree with, and the opposite is true for the right. speaking in broad strokes, of course.

it's the same sort of thing you see with the right and left between realism and idealism, respectively. the idealists cannot see reality, in the same way that they cannot see how a person could possibly like one video game and hate another one even though they have the same themes because one is simply done better.

maybe because capcom actually makes good games?

back in 2018, three of my friends and i played PSO splitscreen for like 3 weeks straight. they came over to my apartment and basically lived there. whenever one of us would go to work the rest of us would just sit there and grind until they got back home so we'd could progress. they would sleep at my place and we would send one person out to get food on rotation. it was some of the most degenerate gaming i've ever experienced in my life but it was so, so fun. i really wish i could do something like that again. just get a bunch of friends together and no life PSO again.

anyway, someone ported PSO to browser and it is really fuckin cool. i heard that title screen music and it just brought back the memories. hard to believe that was already 8 years ago, and PSO in some form or another has stuck with me since then.
