Henchman of Santa posted:People that work jobs that are perceived as beneath the professional class don’t deserve to live This is seriously it. The argument is "I only make $X, how dare you allow that peon serving me fries/digging ditches/other "low status" occupation make more money? How can I feel better than them if the difference between our wages is smaller?"

They will legitimately compare themselves to the Proles of 1984 too. It really is entirely about relative perception of power.

Perestroika posted:What the gently caress even is this reasoning? "If the minimum wage was this high, people could eventually afford their own homes* off of it! This cannot be!" I’m in one of the cheapest places to live in the country and you can indeed find a home for $60k and it will be a garbage home surrounded by garbage homes because nobody wanting to buy those places is going to be able to afford fixing them up.

All of these terrible "no, I'm actually more in touch with the plight of the working class because of my obscene wealth" op ed writers have likely tried to get at least one person fired over a joke on Twitter.

That's a, uh...joke alright  She shouldn't be stooping *that* low as a response but I couldn't really blame anyone for getting mad at that kind of garbage either.

Vincent Van Goatse posted:Why doesn't the new Pokemon game have all the Pokemon in it? That seems... odd. because there's like 2000 now and it's the first one to be fully 3D and on a new platform requiring completely new art assets and making that many models is waaaayyyy too much work for the development team. They will add more, but a Pokemon game will be okay with only one annoying poison type that you encounter every two steps inside of caves.

Because they're now close to a thousand of the loving things, and they've hit the point where it's actually unsustainable to port the whole lineup into a new generation right from the get-go. It's a total travesty and proof of lazy game development, according to a whole bunch of people who have literally no idea how game development works. EDIT: drat, three people and none of us even have the same number of Pokemon.

They have to create every Pokemon who wasn't in Smash Brothers from scratch, also that's what DLC is for.

this literally came up before with the pikachu and eevee games, and I think I even replied and got corrected by some other poke nerd that being able to get all "legit" pokes in the games hasnt really been possible past like gen 4 or something.

Skwirl posted:They have to create every Pokemon who wasn't in Smash Brothers from scratch, also that's what DLC is for. They haven't said anything about future plans (outside of generally commenting that 'just because a Pokemon isn't in Sword and Shield doesn't mean it's gone forever') but I do think it's fairly likely that we'll see some DLC with older Pokemon. Also, people keep bringing up the character models, and that's fair, but that's also not the only factor to porting a Pokemon. Nearly every single Pokemon gets a whole new learnlist for moves every generation to accommodate new moves, new ways to get moves, and balance changes. Then you've got new abilities, the occasional stat changes, changes to the moves themselves and how that affects a Pokemon, how they interact with any new mechanics like Z-moves or with this generation Dynamax/Gigantamax... and then you have to bring in where and when you actually get them in the game itself (if they're actually catchable, and they often are these days) because you don't want them to obliterate the game balance, or to be immediately totally irrelevant by the time they turn up if you can help it. Polygon actually asked the lead developers of Sword and Shield, and apparently every single individual Pokemon is about a three-month development process altogether. I think they were referring to new Pokemon, but a lot less of that process than you think gets skipped because 'we've already figured out Gyarados'.

There are infinite numbers of Pokemon and we have not found the end to them. I fear for the future.
