I could think of why each one is assigned, but I couldn’t figure out why Ubisoft is pride. Any ideas?
My thoughts: they pridefully use the same formula in each of their open-world games, thinking consumers won’t recognize that Far Cry’s gameplay is basically AC with guns and a different story.
Possibly because they refuse to admit that they are being obtuse.
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.

Damn I didn’t know they killed hangouts
All four people who used it must’ve been devastated
Why does everything in the picture look blurry?
You have to disable motion blur.
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.

Lots of words that really just mean Greed (Glutton, Lust, Envy).
It’s like people have known for thousands of years that greedy people are the fuckin worst
That’s because the sins are about exerting your will over others’/the community’s benefit and we use greed to mean wanting. Pride is greed for accolades, sloth is greed for rest, wrath is greed for emotional release.
Exactly. Greed fucking sucks
I spent far too much time trying to picture e.g. Captain Meliodas as Nintendo…
Greed applies to all of these companies let’s be honest.
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
Pride - Greed for attention
Wrath - Greed for violence
Pride could work but wrath is a stretch
Wrath - Greed for control
Wrath - Greed for self-serving ends
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.
Can’t the same be said about Lust?
Greed is lust for money
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.
That’s kind of companies work. The problem is when the company becomes the industry standard.
Basically go for smaller companies and generic brand products. They are better sometimes anyway.
Why is the Nintendo logo AI generated?
Maybe to avoid copyright claims
Probably so they have a defense when Nintendo sends a cease and desist order for using their logo.
They probably are already dead
To escape their wrath.
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
Fair enough.
That’s for upscaling and not uploading memes in shit res though!
The other logos are weird as well. Might be some upscaling at work here.
You know, I remember there being a video about this. Like a long format video essay in which nintendo was the last videogame company to be mentioned and the sin was pride.
I don’t remember who made the video, but I think it was super eyepatch wolf or another youtuber with a similar style. I tried looking for the video but I couldn’t find it. It was really good.
I remember EA was greed, Valve was Sloth. And l think Bethesda was lust(? (Because of constant harrassment allegations in their offices or something like that), but the narrator kept reminding the audience that all game companies were all guilty of the same sins.
T’was really interesting
Is it maybe Game Companies Are NOT Your Friends by The Cursed Judge?
OMG yes!! Thank you, that’s precisely the video I was talking about
What’s the sin where you can’t count to 3?
Denying The Trinity, heresy
Why does so much of the text look so AI-smudged
Probably the AI-smudging
This is actually pretty accurate.
Yeah, I’m surprised how much it fits
Slutty slutty Blizzard
This was obviously made by a Sony fan boy
Ninlondo
Ninlendo!
Ninlondo Ruins
They were there at the dawn of the third generation of video games.
Alright, I normally show up to these to be the voice of reason and moderation…
…but no, this one kinda tracks, actually. Carry on.
