I stole this from Instagram but you dont know that 😉
also I've never seen breaking bad, is it good?
That’s two Breaking Bad memes I’ve seen pop up in as many days, and I hadn’t seen any in years. Just started a rewatch the other week.
When was cyberpunk controversial?
It had a buggy launch. Then they fixed it. And they've kept fixing it. Making it better all the time. Now there's a very small yet exceptionally loud contingent of annoying internet shitheads who make their entire personality shitting on Cyberpunk forever.
They had a bug once and now they refuse to play the complete, and exceptionally well polished game. But they're very very loud about how shit the game still is even though they haven't played more than 2 hours of it since launch.
If you mean the game it still is because the developers lied to people to sell more while making an image they are the complete opposite.
If you mean the meme it's probably because Cyberpunk abbreviation is the same as child porn.
at launch, it was really buggy. people in Lemmy tend to hold one hell of a grudge for some reason
Ahhhhh that
I remember now thanks
About the grudge, yeah that's a gamer thing
Good god I hope that tweet's fake cause if not, that person obviously doesn't proofread stuff lol. also Breaking Bad is one of the best shows ever and you should give it a watch
If you have a 1% error rate in tweets, even if you proofread that's still a .01% chance to make a mistake. With the volume of tweets it shouldn't surprise you that some people make mistakes even if they proofread.
If I like the Anime version of it enough, I'll actually try Bb. I honestly never gave it a fair shot because of how controversial it was.
CP77.
Its really not that hard to abbreviate Cyberpunk 2077.
Maybe he didn't mean Cyberpunk 2077, and just meant the genre in general? I mean, there are other cyberpunk games, plus tv shows, movies, anime, literature, etc.
That is true.
Though... I find the assumption they are talking about Cyberpunk 2077 more realistic:
CyberPunk 2077 did have a very controversial, busted ass broken launch, took em like 2 or 3 years to fully fix it up.
Whereas like... a person with an anime avatar... is presumably familiar... with anime?
Akira? Ghost in the Shell?
Is... cyberpunk as a genre generally... controversial? In... modern day?
I can see it as more controversial like, 20 to 30 years ago... back when Pokemon cards were literally demon magic, as was DnD.
But not present day?
I realize this is not infallible logic... but the idea of an anime fan who finds the genre of cyberpunk controversial.... this is basically ridiculous to me, whereas 77 much more recently was in much more controversy.
Or, perhaps I am just old.
You're gonna get HOW MUCH CP?!?!
Not sure that's any better.
They made a sequel and kept going??
Enough time progressed and it's just normal porn now.
Good thing is nowadays it's being referenced to as CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material), due to children are unable to give consent and some weirdos tried to whitewash it by calling the less outrageous stuff "child erotica" or "artistic nudes of children".🤮
Debated not posting this comment just because the subject itself is so icky:
I am so glad that this is the term now. Some freaks argue that CP where a minor isn't straight-up r*ped is "victimless" (too young, they didn't know they were recorded, etc). The new CSAM term is a line in the sand and makes it clear that any material featuring minors created for that purpose is a product of sexual abuse even if they "consent" to it. Legally, they can't consent and the only way to create the material is to harm innocent children.
Anyway, I'm going to go find brain bleach like videos of a kitten and a giant dog being best friends or something now...
Or loli
But I would think CP is more well known than CSAM
Those names aren't doing a very good job of whitewashing.
Not to be confused with CRAM
Lol I love that it's a harrier jet. Someone should edit this to be that missing Malaysian airliner
I was expecting them to reply like "what's cyberpunk?"
“And that’s how I met my FBI officer.”
Look there are two kinds of people with breaking bad.
Those who loved it, and those who haven't watched much or any of it.
My ex got me into it, and she's kind of.... Well, shes not brilliant. So I didn't take her recommendations too seriously most of the time (I really don't enjoy Teen Mom or 90 day fiance or 600lb life). But this? This show hooked me. It takes quite a few liberties with the sciency bits and lawyer bits, but it's fun even with a bit of knowledge cause it starts with something being "technically correct." It's well written more than anything.
I started watching breaking bad but got bored of it and dropped it
It's not healthy to force yourself to watch a TV show if you get bored of it even if it's popular
Breaking Bad had too much family drama and slow pacing for my taste
Imo, it being slow and very much deep diving into characters is what makes it phenomenal instead of just a shallow action flick.
It's also a rather litmus test for maturity imo.
I first watched it during University years, and I was very much of the camp that was doing the vicariously living through the power fantasy of Walt's rise to power and the bitch wife and crying jessie ruining it for him.
I recently, like a year ago as a 31+ year old rewatched it again, and jesus christ what a top to bottom egoistic selfish asshole Walt is, all I did is feel sorry for Skyler and Jessie.

I think knowing where it's going makes a big difference. Like, first time in going in blind Walt is a sympathetic for the first bit, and for most of the story is dealing with the unintended consequences of raising funds for his treatment. Knowing where it's going it's a lot easier to see him in a lot worse light earlier in the story.
Nah man, Walt makes some egregiously selfish and egotistical calls even in season 1. For an obvious one, he turns down his old friend's money, money they say is effectively Walt's, just so he can rub his own ego even more. Then he goes on to use them as an excuse for where the money is coming from.
He robs his own school of supplies, too. There are many, many many selfish piece of shit things Walt does. From the start.
He also starts off being a judgemental piece of shit to Jessie even while he's trying to use him to do the same shit he's judging Jessie for.
Walt is purely a piece of shit that kind of sort of starts to redeem himself after he already created the whole mess to begin with.
Well yeah, that might be a factor, also that on a a second watch you can start picking up on things better, because it's much clearer from the get go that while his very initial intention to not leave his family behind poor, it really quickly becomes about his ego.
