Greed applies to all of these companies let's be honest.

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 65 points 3 days ago

Greed could encompass most of the 7 sins.

Lust - Greed for sex

Sloth - Greed for relaxation

Gluttony - Greed for food

Envy - Greed of others stuff

The only two that don't really fit under greed is pride and wrath

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 45 points 3 days ago

Pride - Greed for attention

Wrath - Greed for violence

[-] ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

Pride could work but wrath is a stretch

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 days ago

Wrath - Greed for control

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

I was gonna put pride in there as greed for power but pride comes in many forms.

As for wrath I don't see it as a greedy thing it's something that is provoked. Evoked I should say.

Greed, the character from FMAB, has an interesting take on this concept. He extends the concept to call the idea of the heroes winning completely (i.e. they get their bodies back, defeat the bad guys, no one dies) to be a form of greed, and the idea of greed is independent of morality.

You could call this unhelpful broadening of the concept of greed, but I think it's an interesting reframing of something people usually think of very negatively.

This is actually pretty accurate.

[-] Rokin@lemm.ee 39 points 4 days ago

Yeah, I'm surprised how much it fits

[-] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 46 points 4 days ago

There should be a memorial for victims of EA (all the studios they have acquired and then shut down), similarly to the Victims of Communism memorial.

Why does so much of the text look so AI-smudged

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 45 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

The original is very low res that's why I upscaled it:

[-] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago

Probably the AI-smudging

Sexual harassment cases at Blizzard.

Maybe because their Overwatch models are used heavily in porn.

[-] itsnicodegallo@lemm.ee 10 points 4 days ago

So THAT'S why it's always so high-quality.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Nonsense. The porn has way better quality models than the game.

Or so I heard. I don't play Overwatch.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

Overwatch is an amazing porn series that has an incredibly shitty game based on it.

Search "blizzard breast milk"

[-] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 19 points 4 days ago

Why is the Nintendo logo AI generated?

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 25 points 4 days ago

It’s not AI generated, it’s AI upscaled because the original was very low resolution and I was to lazy to remake the meme

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 days ago

Maybe to avoid copyright claims

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 days ago

Probably so they have a defense when Nintendo sends a cease and desist order for using their logo.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 days ago

They probably are already dead

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

To escape their wrath.

This was obviously made by a Sony fan boy

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 11 points 3 days ago

did you ai generate every single one of those logos

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 27 points 3 days ago

It’s not AI generated, it’s AI upscaled because the original was very low resolution and I was to lazy to remake the meme

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

What's the connection between Blizzard and Lust?

[-] Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 18 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

A "boys club" scandal a couple years ago where the male higher-ups only hired women who would tolerate being sexually abused. Some ex-employees described it as "company culture" that propagated for a decade or more. There was an investigation after some women spoke out that led to a lawsuit, several top level managers being fired, and a couple CEOs being scrutinized really hard.

All of this is off the top of my head and maybe somewhat inaccurate, but that's the gist of it.

Edit: Here's an article for you

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Multiple sexual harassment claims and lawsuits, including incidents of stolen breast milk.

  • Alleged cubicle crawls where drunk employees go cubicle to cubicle harassing females.
  • Multiple C suites resigning due to personal indiscretions.
  • A "Cosby" suite
  • Suicide due to extreme harassment
  • Multiple allegations of breast milk missing from office fridges.

You can't make this shit up.

can anybody explain the konami part to me? I am out of the loop.

[-] Hector@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 days ago

Konami published a lot of games that had potential but they didn't really take them anywhere.

They keep releasing collections and new games are all outsourced.

Alright, I normally show up to these to be the voice of reason and moderation...

...but no, this one kinda tracks, actually. Carry on.

Why does everything in the picture look blurry?

[-] oce@jlai.lu 25 points 4 days ago

You have to disable motion blur.

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 18 points 4 days ago

It was AI upscaled, the original version looks like this:

AI upscaling made it sharper, but overall worse. Entertainment under Blizzard is completely unreadable in the upscale.

[-] iorale@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 days ago

Most of the time it's better to just remake the meme, upscaling (by any means) usually makes it worse and lazy
