    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.

      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.

      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

          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.

      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.

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

      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

    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
