That's probably true.

Just like I suspect most Europeans couldn't point out Mississippi or Missouri or Missachetts on the map.

Or even know that "Missachetts" isn't a real state.

Maybe it's a US/EU difference, where EU people wanted to be more specific. I was responding to the incorrect claim that nobody uses the the term "eurojank".

I wonder if they're really huffing the shit they're spewing? How much are they getting paid?

While I commiserate with people not wanting to be "typecast" like the other dev complaining about the term JRPG, I've never parsed the terms as boxing in devs to their location. "JRPG" and "eurojank" are posthoc titles describing where the collection of features coalesced. Just like Expedition 33 is a JRPG, despite japanese RPGs pioneering the feature set and aesthetic back in the 90s.

"Eurojank" is more aesthetic and 'vibe' than genre features though.

I've literally never seen anyone call it "slavjank"

Yeah, he seems like he's sold his soul to the very Republican political machine. He "believes" whatever Republican inertia points toward.

I'm not a good cocktail though, I'm a bad lay.

So 3 minutes it is.

This is the polite version of what I was thinking. Well done.

Having lots of money earned does not make a person bad.

They never said that. So maybe you're disagreeing with their reasoning because you don't know what it is.

They say billionaires are bad because they have a lot of money and don't use it to help people. This isn't even talking about billionaire who engage in actually/actively morally wrong deeds to acquire money.

If you produce a product so excellent that consumers give you 1 billion dollars ($1.000.000.000) in pure profit, there would be no problem if you kept a nest egg to ensure your livelihood and then used the rest to provide aid where it's needed. You would still be a bad person for sitting on it, instead of spreading it to help people that aren't well off. A person can live very well on $300K pretty much anywhere in the world: that means $999,700,000 is not materially improving your life and you are hoarding it for no good reason.
