the people in this thread didn’t read the article

the article is literally just “Gen Z can’t hold a difference of opinion” repeated over and over with different phrasing

most people by now understand what that’s code for, because the other side understands that giving examples would immediately out them as a bigot

otherwise you’d just, you know, give an example

It literally depends entirely on the people and the company

wow wild that you won’t just, you know, give an example

you realise that the narrative of “cancel culture” has been going since long before the pandemic, right? this is the same exact thing just dressed up differently

Find where exactly I said this.

“yes you do have to talk to people you disagree with on a high level”

Your problem is that you’re doing the fun game of pretending that “political differences” these days are still in the realms of disagreeing whether quantitative easing is sound economic practice, rather than disagreeing whether trans people should get to exist or not.

If you vote for a party based on their economic policy, and that party happens to be actively recruiting from the ranks of white supremacists, then congratulations: you’ve just voted at least in part for white supremacy, whether you realised it or not. If you vote for a party currently trying to win votes by campaigning on the grounds of climate change being a hoax, then congratulations, that’s exactly what you voted for.

They need to have debates and discussion and decide on courses of action

Essentially all the discussion in this thread so far has basically been focused around being outspoken against bigotry, so I’d be really interested what industry you work in where there are transferable skills from lively debates on whether racism is a good thing or not.

What’s an example of an opinion you think Bill from accounting could hold that your standard Gen-Z employee would find unacceptable?

Just to double check, your stance is that a minority should be forced to be cordial with somebody who hates them simply for existing?

Unfortunately for everybody, businesses will need to recruit and retain Gen Z employees. If that means that they have to change their company culture, then that’s going to have to happen.

if there was a movie that was 200 hours long and you chose to stay for the entire duration and not walk out, then you either enjoyed the movie or you need to learn about the sunk-cost fallacy

sounds like big tech shouldn’t have spent the last decade investing in a kitchen refit so that they could make stew really well but nothing else

ok i guess you don’t get to use private data in your models too bad so sad

why does the capitalistic urge to become “the world leader” in whatever technology-of-the-month is popular right now supersede a basic human right to privacy?

it’s crazy that “it’s too hard :(” has become an acceptable justification for just ignoring the law within tech circles

• The core gameplay loops aren’t different enough
• OW2 is basically OW1 with some minor tweaks
• OW2 is so similar to OW1, that without it, these reviews would be saying that they’re essentially the same game
• All I’ve said was that people calling OW2 basically enshittified OW1 is not review bombing, because it’s a valid review.
• Because there are very few differences

Okay so you clearly agree that OW2 doesn’t deserve to be the lowest rated game on steam, since “there are very few differences”, and you liked OW1.

I don’t really care what semantic nonsense or mental gymnastics you have to apply to convince yourself that whatever caused it to be ranked so low doesn’t count as review bombing.

in your analogy you bought a camry and mr toyota said “we’re getting rid of this camry but don’t worry i fought to get you a free corolla” and were fine with it and hailed mr toyota as a hero but then mr toyota left the company so the free corolla became poisonous and bad

my guy csgo crates were controversial enough a few years ago that people sued valve over them, and at no point did csgo come anywhere close to being the worst reviewed game on steam

how are you unironically out here saying that csgo doesn’t drop crates?

you’re reviewing a different product

ow1 was shut down to avoid splitting the playerbase. when kaplan went on record saying that he’d fought to get ow1 owners a copy of ow2 for free everybody loved it, but now it’s bad, actually? yes that makes sense

Orcarina or Time looks like a shit game today

comparing the entire landscape of gaming to a game is a very different thing to comparing it to a specific game

it would be like if somebody reviewed Baldur’s Gate 3 by saying it was bad just because they liked the source powers from Divinity 2. as part of a review maybe it works, sure but as the bedrock and sole item of substance, it’s useless.

your entire argument so far has been “I preferred the previous game therefore OW2 deserves to be the worst reviewed game on steam”. even ignoring the fact that you’ve failed to articulate any differences past a vague notion of not liking that it’s free-to-play, that’s an almost laughably braindead take

if you’re reviewing specific things you don’t like, that’s reviewing a product

leaving a negative review because “OW1 was killed off” isn’t doing that

if you want to discuss specific things you don’t like, please provide some that would reasonably justify OW2 being literally the worst reviewed game on steam rn

you’re saying CSGO doesn’t drop crates?

“i wanted a camry not a corolla” is not a valid review of a corolla

tf2 drops crates every 30 minutes that’s literally just an advert for the in-game store (which has a dedicated button pretty clearly labelled on the main menu)

pretty sure CSGO does the same

“i liked overwatch 1” is not a valid review of the game overwatch 2, and people leaving reviews to that effect en-masse is pretty textbook review bombing

correct: it’s a different game

reviewing it because it’s not Overwatch 1 is by definition review bombing

leaving a negative review because of that would by definition be review bombing, because at that point you’re not reviewing the game, but external context that surrounds it

yes good job you failed to read my comment again 👏👏

i mean i ignored the second part because it was irrelevant

“You’re entirely disconnected to reality if you think Overwatch 2 deserves to be the worst-reviewed game on Steam.” doesn’t say “deserves to be the worst game”, so if we’re playing the reading game maybe you should take the first turn
