One doesn't need to replace the other.:)

The big problem with matchmaking is that in the long run, it kills game. When people start to move on to a new thing, the population that stays because they're attached to the game gets fucked over by matchmaking.

The less people they are, the worse it works. That's when a server browser and the ability to run community server becomes crucial. It will keep a game alive for a decade after its last update.

I don't follow this game at all, nor do I care about Bungie, but everything I've seen and heard about this game sounds like an incoming blunder. I can't see this game succeed at all. But hey, best of luck, I guess.

Yup, can't wait for the next BattleBit Remastered update.

These political parties never learn. It's mind-boggling. How many failures of the Democrats in the U.S. or similar parties do you need to finally understand that trying to cater to the right wing will only validate the far right and alienate whoever is left to vote for you? The more a society shifts to the right, the harder left you must be. Double down!

People go to the far-right out of bigotry, but not just this, they go to them because in the end they always end up being the only ones proposing solutions, saying that they're going to change their lives, whereas the rest of you are just saying, oh, vote for us or otherwise it's gonna be the mean far-right in power, but we're not planning on changing anything.

Capitalism is failing and crumbling all around us. People are begging for something to change. The far right is promising that they will change things, by throwing minorities under the bus, it's a false promise, it's not a solution, it's not gonna change anything, but at least they're saying something, while the rest of you are just... doing nothing. They lie, they cheat, they manipulate everyone, but in the end they're still the only ones saying that they're gonna do something!

There is one minority that deserves to be thrown under the bus and we all know which. It's the wealthiest, the 1%, the billionaires, but all of you are too cowardly to take the fight to them so instead you throw us all to the wolves! You don't care about the people, you don't care about policy, all you care is keeping your fucking seat at the table.

I'm so fucking sick of seeing the same goddamn thing happen again and again and none of these people are taking any lessons from it! No one is coming to save us, that would require them to work and do something for once.

Damn, that's so fucking bleak...

The victim is a black woman. Which is not surprising. Transphobic and misogynistic standards have a big racist bend to them and black women, especially athletes, have long been targeted with these kinds of things. In competitive sports, it's been an issue for a very long time, black women get a lot of transphobic and misogynistic shit thrown at them because these standards are built on whiteness first and foremost.
