the difference is that discussions about robocop are exclusively about the original
if youre convinced the wolfenstein and doom reboots have the same impact and relevance as robocop (2014) youre entirely allowed to stay that way, im not gonna try and shake you out of it
I mean, if someone says “Doom and Wolfenstein” without specifying “Doom Eternal” and “Wolfenstein: Youngblood” (which I had to look up, BTW), I’m thinking of Id.
that makes sense, especially since Doom eternal is in fact still developed by id
Wolfenstein and Doom have both reached significantly more people since they got adopted by zenimax though, so most folks who actually played the games will have probably gotten introduced to them as Bethesda published games
“Wolfenstein: Youngblood” (which I had to look up, BTW),
lol ok
evidently they dont give much of a shit either way
Dude! The original ones were cultural touchstones in a market that wasn’t yet oversaturated. They literally invented and defined the whole genre!
the original ones were undoubtedly MUCH more popular in their time.
i mean sure, but that also doesnt matter to the point i was making
More people might be playing the new ones NOW
which is why most folks are probably not talking about the old games when they say they like wolfenstein and doom
i assumed they were talking about the bethesda published reboots, what with them being significantly more popular than the earlier games
doom and Wolfenstein are published by bethesda
im so glad that blizzards internal culture and conduct align with microsofts values enough for them to skip the hands-on approach theyve shown with other subsidiaries

“i had to go through miserable bullshit so you have to too” is not doing what you think its doing
i mean, with the amount of effort this took even a single quick glance resulting in a miss would be a pretty big win
its a silly idea but theres hardly any reason not to try it
not to mention that its probably still pretty effective in low visibility situations
i can excuse hiring mercenaries to rough a guy up for leaking cards, but using AI art is a step too far!
thats because steam awards are a complete joke, and entirely worthless as any measure of anyrhing but name recognisability
@oakey66@lemmy.world raised the fair point that opposing a weapons deal is not the same as opposing funding
he’s been very weak on the ceasefire demand up until very recently.
this isnt relevant to whether sanders has pushed for blocking funding to israel
he’s talked about blocking arm sales
blocking arms sales not being the same as blocking funding is fair, however:
He has not called for an end to the sending of money to Israel
is at least misrepresentative
even if it was in response to specific bills as opposed to a complete and total cut, he has explicitly spoken out against bills funding israel, and saying ‘the United States should not be complicit in (the actions of Israel)’ in oplosition to a specific bill is still hard to read as anything but a call to cut funding of israel in general

you can be annoyed about something someone is doing without making some personal judgement about that someone
if my train is late because the train driver had a heart attack im aware that its not the drivers fault, but im still not going to be thrilled about my luck
it’s ‘i’m afraid’ for me
as far as im aware, no one is legally compelled to perform an abortion
thats practically the sole determinator
thats great
the reboot is still probably most fans entry point to the franchise and frame of reference for discussing it, especially during a discussion about Bethesda
that is not any kind of dig at the older games, the quality of them is entirely irrelevant to the point i was making
you dont need to come to the defense of them, especially by venting about games that i also do not care about
