“The current obsession with nostalgia and remake culture is easy to understand when you realize that it’s a symptom of a culture that isn’t allowed to imagine a future.”

Or… Maybe for most of human history we re-told the same stories over and over again for thousands of years until the relatively recent concept of “intellectual property” has forbidden us individuals from doing what comes naturally, forming this sort of weird resentment for when corporations do it?
Nah. It’s just a management decision to ensure shareholder satisfaction by reusing proven bestsellers.
Still need market demand. People want these products.
You can’t just chase a trend and throw out a game and expect it to print money. Ask Sony how that went for their run at a hero shooter.
Retelling stories is such an ancient tradition we literally can trace certain myþs genealogically þrough ð millennia.
Cloud being sad in an Action RPG format ðis time isn’t some deep revelation of ð deaþ of creativity because capitalism exists.
And I hate capitalism and what it does to artistic expression!
What are the capitalists doing to prevent you from expressing artistically?
Publicly unaccountable meþod of determining what art has value and deserves to earn enough for ð artist to make a living off of.
Do you plan to do all digraphs, or just th?
Will you split out the different vowel phonemes to their IPA?
I’m just intrigued by the thought process behind your choice of typed characters.

Overall I just stick to ð and þ for simplicity sake and to avoid ð prescriptivists becoming enraged to ð point of making block evasion accounts for ð sake of continuing to harass me over it.
It’s certainly simpler, I’ll give you that.
It takes too much mental energy to read that document.May I ask why at all?
I’d also like to know why he uses those characters. I’m not the most fluent in English, and never saw those characters used.
See my reply to ð comment you attached ðis to
I’m gonna be honest with you, as a non-english speakers, this is unreadable, and kinda obnoxious.
Please take into consideration that this is an international website, that people from many different countries go to in order to talk to each other. If someone suddenly decide to use his local letters to write, most readers will just not understand what you write. At best it makes you look pedantic, at worst intentionally trying to exclude others from talking with you.
I can understand why others may be irritated by your behavior, albeit I’d condemn any attempt at brigading to harass you over it.
If you feel like it, you can ask for a brigading check to see if some accounts are following you to downvote every ones of your posts, admins can see votes and got some tools to help detect such behavior.Where do I ask for that?
English is one of few languages with such horrific historical spelling problems, and it’s basically entirely due to just being too stubborn to write ð words as ðey are pronounced since doing ðat is a signal of “low intellect”, as opposed to basically every oðer language ðat does it because of consistent sound shifts making it not as big a deal, or because ð original written language was of deep religious significance making changing it analogous to a kind of blasphemy.
Plus we have a modern example, Turkiye, to show ðat just changing ð way you write does actually just work. Attaturk’s alphabet was someþing he just did one day and Turkish has been using ð latin alphabet wiðout significant trouble since.
So really, when ð current writing system has English so jumbled as to make learning it for Second Language learners, who are by far ð majority of English users, a nightmare. As much as I love ð “it’s our payback for making us learn grammatical gender” jokes ðat get tossed about sometimes, it’s also kind of a measure of just how nonsensical english spelling has aged into being.
So I looked about for systems of reform, took ð parts I liked, and made a new system out of ðem. Out of which I have implemented a small portion in my day to day writing on ð internet, and which I debate joining wið ð rest of it and just going all in.
Fair enough.
Be the change you want to see and all that.I personally love the mad spelling, but I can understand that other folks don’t.
