Anyone want an off brand Funko of your favorite soytuber? what about your favorite E-whore, like Pokimane and Neekoolul? what about beating internet memes to death by turning them into merch?

Collect them all before their subject matter becomes completely irrelevant

I have to say at least there's a lot of variety in facial expressions and poses on these and it's not the same blank ugly funko pop stare.

I just learned that the newer NBA games have unskippable ads in them. It started around the 2019 game I think.

If it wasn't for the intended audience that keeps buying these games I'd be mad at this practice. But they keep buying the yearly release which are pretty much exactly the same, except it's the current year.

There are some dumbasses or liars/in denials who tell that they want to stop buying these games but can't since 2k/EA (which are indeed despicable in their own right) are the only ones who have a hold over these games on the market, not knowing that there are other games to try and play out there. And you can pretty much play an older release that has none of the bullshit.

These people can get advertised on to death, I hope 2K fucks these people over more by making emails and phone number mandatory for spam ads in these games, most people that aren't infuriated and self aware would eat it up. Speaking of which:

One might say lot of things about Pokemon/COD fans buying the same below-average game each year, even if they claim they hate it, but damn, sports fans, somehow always manage to sink even lower.

It actually tries to resemble what it's depicting instead of using the same generic shape with minor detail alterations for everything, so it's the slightest bit above FunkoPops. To put it another way, it's a figure that's representing the thing it claims to represent rather than being figure of a reference to a representation.

Anyone with a Pokimane figure on their room deserves mockery. I feel is even more disturbing to see a wall of eceleb figures than just superheroes, is even dirtier

Isn't calling someone a "mugle fucker" the equivalent of calling them "nigger lovers" ?

Very based and wizardpilled

Sports games like this are disgusting. At least mobile gacha games have the decency to be free if you don't spend a single cent on microtransactions. Here? Pay up to have unskippable ads in your game like you're playing an f2p mobile game, you retard.

I had a brief conversation about it with a friend who was studying psychology, she said it was a coping mechanism for insecure men with bad self esteem, they want to hide their face as much as possible out of shame, the beard and thick glasses work as a sort mask to subconsciously hide behind, same with fedoras and eccentric trench coat combos, they'd prefer something thats external that draws attention as a form of faux armor because they feel it deflects from the ugliness they feel on the inside. they'd feel more exposed without it. I feel like is a very broad generalization given how common and natural facial hair is in men and how some dudes really do need thick frames for their shitty eyesight but i suppose there is a point to it too.

I think this is much more thought than anyone who dresses this way puts into their appearance. They just do it because the other people around them do it. It says more about people like us that we come up with these complicated explanations for very simple and predictable behaviors.

One can go mad trying to rationalize all of this.

Great example for comparison. I can't understand who would do this to themselves for the life of me. Maybe some people just unironically enjoy ads? Maybe feeling like the center of attention gives them some kind of comfort? Now I'm the one making up complicated theories.

The founder Satoshi Tajiri is actually diagnosed with autism, might explain a few things. I liked Digimon better, but that franchise has gone to shit too.

Digimon fans are awful with the consoomerism too. Fans will happily spend hundreds of dollars on vpets they will never play or take out of the box. When it was discovered Target was selling them for 5$ each people went there to buy most of them up and proudly show off their collection. And then you have those who sink a ton of money importing Japanese vpets.

And don’t get me started on the embarassingly large amount of fans who show off their tattoos of Omegamon or the crests from the first season. If you spot a consoomer in the Digimon fanbase 99% of the time it’s a fan of the first Digimon Adventures who grew up with it and consooms merchandise out of childhood nostalgia. It also doesn’t help that Digimon has been milking the shit out of Adventure since 2015 with movies aimed at adults who grew up with it and pumping out merchandise for them too.

At least when bugmen buy their funko pops, those figures won't turn out to be pedophiles. Usually.

LOL, and of course every single person in the ad is black.
 
You know what I like to consume?

The DVD box sets of Star Trek that I bought a while ago and Nintendo games. At least I know I am getting quality. And no ads.
