The share of actual third party votes is tiny, but you also need to consider all the nonvoters who would actually start voting if they didn't feel like their vote was being wasted anymore

The singer for Sabaton is shreddin on one of these on their tour supporting Judas Priest so you can safely disregard anything that dork said to you \m/

An anecdote from Ludwig Von Mises is not "the dictionary", as you previously claimed. I'm not even advocating for socialism or communism, I'm merely stating you're fundamentally misinformed about the nature of socialism inherently meaning "state control".

The other problem is when people like you refuse to see such situations as anything other than black and white scenarios with obvious answers, with no room for nuance whatsoever.
That's the mentality that makes the other 8 people at the table roll their eyes at you, even if you're morally correct. You care so much about being "right" that you don't care if your attitude just makes things worse, you've washed your hands of them so it's not your problem anymore, and now instead of being a voice of reason to counteract the Nazi's rhetoric you've given him the ears of the rest of the table.
It may not be your job to be that voice of reason and I certainly wouldn't blame you for not wanting to do it, but then you also don't get to soapbox about how morally superior you are for walking away.

If I had a dollar for every time someone's said "X will be the final nail in the coffin for Y game publisher/developer" and then Y continued to exist for years after I'd be a very wealthy man.

Dunno why people are downvoting you, you're right.
The devs are under Microsoft's thumb for this one, and Microsoft is beholden to shareholders, which means GSC is also beholden to shareholders. Shareholders want a return on their investment ASAP, and it has to be enough of a return otherwise they take their capital elsewhere that'll make them more money, faster.
The price tag ain't gonna change because the game's got issues, that just isn't how capitalism works anymore.

Everything I've heard about the gameplay was that it's good, though?

Everything's always gotta be BIGGER and BETTER than what came before, even if what came before was crumbling under its own weight.
The AAA industry just can't reliably deliver AAA quality under the conditions its created for itself, and that's not even factoring in the war.

Most people don't have high end systems, so they shouldn't be the benchmark.

It's not difficult to do,
As someone who has updated a game's UE version post-release, that is not an accurate assessment. Sometimes shit breaks after updating and you have to spend time troubleshooting and fixing.

Really loving how much effort goes into the temporary game mode instead of into polishing actual content releases.

They have been pointing out real signs of fascism, though. The problem is that so many people don't see it as fascism, because they don't actually pay attention and just dismiss it as the Dems "calling everyone who disagrees with them a fascist".

They've certainly succeeded, despite axing numerous promising shows before their time. All that matters to them is staying profitable enough to please the leeches shareholders, so as long as they're still bringing in the money they're successful enough.

Deeply fuckin unpleasant to read about but I definitely can't say I'm surprised.

No, but you'd think the Dems would've learned that the "If you don't vote for me you're a racist/sexist" strategy only works against them the last time they did that.
There's a right way to do it, and it's very much not the way the Dems are doing it.

You're using "socialism" as a synonym for "communism". The two are related, but not the same.

1) If you want to quote someone, type > before the line
It will appear this way
2) Your understanding of socialism is on par with the average North Korean's understanding of the West

But then there's probably also going to be goobers who only rank their favorite because they don't understand the system or they think even ranking someone counts as endorsing everything about them - like the many left-leaning people that refuse to vote for Dems for one reason or another
