Actual Convo I Had With Epic Games Support

The gaming backlog paradox strikes again! PC gamers threatening violence over waiting for GTA 6 while simultaneously ignoring their digital hoarding problem is peak irony. We're all that guy with 1000+ unplayed Steam games collected during sales we "couldn't pass up," yet somehow convinced ourselves that this game is the emergency. The cognitive dissonance of having enough untouched content to last several lifetimes while acting like waiting for another AAA title is literal torture. Meanwhile, our Steam libraries silently judge us harder than any hostage-taker ever could.

OH. MY. GOD. Someone actually wrote a function that checks if a deck is unique by comparing it to previous decks, loops through ALL 52 CARDS, and then... PLOT TWIST... returns true no matter what! 🤦‍♀️ The drama here is ASTRONOMICAL! That entire red section is just elaborate theater that does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. It's like building an entire security system for your house but leaving the key under the mat with a neon sign saying "KEY HERE!" The function name promises uniqueness but delivers LIES. Trust issues? I have them now.

The corporate brain trust strikes again! When game studios hit that sweet 1M milestone, executives immediately start plotting how to milk more cash from their success. Subscription models? Public statements of empty promises? Or maybe—gasp—actually listening to players? The last guy suggesting they "stop killing games" gets yeeted out the window faster than a junior dev who asks about work-life balance. Because heaven forbid we maintain something that works instead of chasing the next quarterly profit high. European players are the real MVPs though—they're the ones who keep demanding consumer rights while the rest of us just accept our fate and open our wallets.

OMG VINDICATION AT LAST! That moment when your incessant "wouldn't it be nice if..." suggestions ACTUALLY EXISTED THE WHOLE TIME! 😱 Game developers secretly validating your feature creep addiction while your friends roll their eyes at your "unnecessary" requests. The sheer DRAMA of discovering that notepad function was hiding there all along! It's like finding out your ex actually WAS the problem! Sweet, sweet validation for your feature-demanding soul! And the best part? You didn't even have to file a single GitHub issue! 💅

1989: "Imagine the technological marvels we'll create with computers in 30 years!" 2020: "So I've simulated 1,000 T-Rexes fighting 80,000 chickens. For science." Ah yes, the pinnacle of computing power - dinosaur-poultry warfare. Somewhere in a server farm, a CPU is thinking, "I was designed to cure cancer, but here we are."

The Xbox Series S just had an existential crisis and received the most brutal answer possible. "What is my purpose?" it asks, only to learn it's merely a placeholder device for PC gamers waiting for Rockstar to finally port GTA 6. The gaming industry's dirty little secret: console exclusivity periods are just elaborate hostage situations for our wallets. That Xbox is going to sit there for what, 2-3 years minimum? Rockstar's porting schedule is like watching continental drift in real-time. At least the Switch had Zelda while we waited.
