Is the South Park world of warcraft episode the best representation of gaming in television history?
South Park was never good
found the leftist eternal twitter cuck
Your info is severely outdated, right wingers are the ones that hate South Park now since t made fun of Trump, Qanon and antivaxxers
>More exposure to right wing ideas even trough comedy = bad
You mental pygmies do not get it do you.
When those ideas live rent free in peoples mind they become part of them, then comes acceptance and thus the leftist has two paths, surrender or fear.
We as intellectuals ought to just laugh it off while the lefts seethes at the fact that the right, be it positive or negative, is getting more screen time than their metal moronation.
There is no such thing as bad publicity. Remember this.
You are right, smart yellow cartoon character.
you say the left seethes endlessly and yet Ganker and /misc/ is nothing more than an outrage factory.
Literally schizophrenia
>Simpsons poster makes a moronic take
Predictable as usual.
homosexual, South Park used to be centrist, until trey and Matt got old and decided to full leftist, they're still b***hing about Trump but they don't make fun of Biden
Theres a lot more to work with
I don't know, I'm just tired of having the same shit with this orange homosexual, it's almost like they're stuck in 2016, though the strong women episode was pretty ballsy, did they get any backlash?
Yeah, but this president also has a crackhead son who acts as a money runner for his dad in between importing exotic escorts and dodging child support payments.
Biden has a ton of material to work with. We literally had a whole meme based off him just going up stairs. https://youtu.be/IRq7fc-bR2o
Trump was the absolute worst thing to happen to political comedy. He offered such an abundance of low hanging fruit that it made comedy writers incredibly lazy.
It's going to be 2036 and we'll still be hearing lame ass Trump jokes
Our current President literally shits himself, doesn't know where he is most of the time, and cowered in fear as a guy in an Easter Bunny costume approached him. Also, our money is on fire and we are on the verge of World War III.
we're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine?
we've had like 3 presidents like that in the last 50 years
there is literally nothing wrong with low hanging fruit jokes you lifeless autistic fricker
That's what Trump said hey-o!
They encourage men to jerk off with other men.
Its sonly achievment can be ending Harry and Murkel and that would be a net positive.
Based.
Realistically someone like Cartman would just be beaten up until he conformed to society.
>just be beaten up
>until he conformed to society
lol
lmao
rofl
the delusions of the projecting creditor
The only people that do this are leftist nut jobs, trying to make you fit their tiny world view
Please stop pretending to be south park characters if you want to LARP go to /vrp/
>Realistically someone like Cartman would just be beaten up
Nah. Cartman always came across as that super big fat kid that was always one of the biggest bullies in school because their home life was absolute dogshit. Sure he'd get bullied behind his back but I doubt people would bully him openly.
Is that what happened to you, anon?
That leveling montage is motivational kino
LIVE TO WIN
the episode made zero sense both about wow and the irl plot. it was just 30 mins of glorified boomers pretending to play wow with machinima footage. drawn together did a better job of portraying vidya.
>the episode made zero sense both about wow
Purposely getting details wrong about how the game works (like Randy saying his character is a Hunter despite having the Warrior starting gear and Humans not being able to play as Hunters) is definitely something Matt and Trey would do on purpose to piss off the spergs in the audience.
Blizzard literally helped with the episode, any errors would just be Matt & Trey deliberately pissing people off. Like how Robin Williams was a weeb who deliberately got details wrong about Evangalian in One Hour Photo to annoy the fans.
The part where cartman unleashes a torrent of shit into that tray is pretty funny.
Is the holodeck considered a video game?
It depends entirely on the user. It's actually classified as a warcrime when Riker gets to use it.
the greatest video game of all time
>Wow this game is so primitive and dumb and why the frick would future games be this simple and rely on tiny dopamine rushes.
"Fun" fact: This is literally the only time you get to see the ceiling of the bridge.
Didn't you get to see it when that guy turned into a yellow ball of light and ascend beyond humanity or whatever?
Hi Mike
South Park has a handful of episodes that are fantastic, The Losing Edge is absolutely brilliant, but most of it is mediocre or unwatchable. The early seasons especially have aged like shit.
Everyone always says this and it is always wrong. The early seasons are the best ones. Just 4 kids going on surrealist adventures in a town full of wacky stereotypes where everyone was stupid with low brow british humor and charmingly bad animation. If anything, later South Park aged horribly with every season now needing to consist of the same two jokes repeated for ten episodes and social commentary based on what's going on that week that is already dated by the time the season ends. They have been getting better with this a bit recently but the damage has been done.
wasn't that like 17 years ago? why would you assume we'd be familiar with it?
Zoom zoom zoooom
no, there are no scenes where they pull out a credit card to buy a battle pass and skins
That's how boomers view it, gaming now is a skinny zoomer buying skins in fortnite
No, but it was really funny.
Funniest part
One of the, if not THE best southpark episode period. Maybe the Bin Laden as a close second, mostly cuz I have a lot of nostalgia for it from way back in the day.
No I'm not fat and I play games every day but not mmo's
South Park has always been fundamentally reactionary; those pushing for change are wrong no matter what change they push for. Nothing is a bigger crime to Matt and Trey than Giving a Shit. Their ideology is apathetic-libertarian; whether you're on the left or the right, if you're asking me to change my behavior, you suck.
As it stands, the political left tends to push for more change than the political right does; as it stands, Matt and Trey admit they dislike conservatives and "really fricking hate" liberals. It isn't about left or right; it's about change versus comfort. If you're trying to change something, they think you're annoying. And they think you're lame, because caring about stuff is lame.
It's the same attitude that establishes "u mad" and "butthurt" as the ultimate trump cards in internet arguments: caring is for losers, and if you become personally invested in politics you're part of the problem. Uncritical, detached acceptance of the status quo is the only morally upright posture, and those who draw a distinction between is and ought are all smug bullies, outlandish freaks, and/or closed-minded zealots.
It's a show that teaches its audience to become lazy and self-satisfied, that praises them for being uncritically accepting of their own biases, and that provides them with an endless buffet of thought-terminating cliches suitable for shutting down all manner of challenges to their comfort zones.
South Park is a place where you never have to have your assumptions challenged. It's a place where you're always right, you shouldn't bother to think, and the people asking you to change your mind are annoying busybodies and prigs who should just shut up and leave you alone.
South Park is, if you'll excuse the expression...a "safe space."
>South Park has always been fundamentally reactionary
>get's made cheap as hell, so they can rush it out on a weekly basis, being extremely up2date in response, always reacting to the latest and created in news
no fricking shit it's reactionary, that isn't exactly a secret, never has been
>t. assmad moralgay
Nice reddit copypasta, kindly go back
u mad
Nice copy paste, did a AI give that to you, or redditor/YT of your choice?
>you shouldn't bother to think, and the people asking you to change your mind are annoying busybodies and prigs who should just shut up and leave you alone.
The COVID movie is the perfect example
>Stan grew to be exactly like his dad
>Kyle grew old and bitter
>While Kenny became a renowned scientist and finally got out of poverty, he died trying to change the past just so he could still be with his friends doing the same shit
>Cartman is the only one that matured and changed, and effectively got the worst fate by changing the past to the losers could still be friends
The way South Park approached Covid made it very obvious they are on a leash now.
They’ve been on that leash from years. Look at the meltdown they had during the 2016 election.
That's true, but with the 2016 election there was still at least the baseline parody of people's general opinions and actual funny shit like Canada building a wall, you could believe to some degree they just didn't get it. The Covid episodes came off like a vax campaign that was giving lip service to the idea people were being hypochondriacs
>on a leash
>now
Honestly, I'm surprised the show is still going at all, seeing how "problematic" it used to be, when you look back at things with a modern look on things. Who even owns the show at this point, surely they aren't doing this on their own, that would give them too much power.
Remember that time Mr Slave stuffed an entire human being up his butthole? I'm not here for riveting intellectual stimulus.
That’s what matt and trey wants you to believe, they also think they’re hot stuff and are “above it all” and get mad when you call them morons
Which is why Drawn Together will always be right about this stuff. Comedy should be for comedy's sake, frick telling moronic morals and not taking any stance because you're too weak-willed, just do the joke and frick off
>drawn together will always be right about this stuff
oh wow, a based thread in a terrible thread, shocking.
>NO OYU REEE XDD
lmao
based, you got the redditors squirming
South Park died the moment Randy started to be a self insert
Was this before or after they got major butthurt over the entire Isaac Hayes thing and brutally slaughtered Chef?
I think that after, when he started becoming the focus of some episodes
If Isaac Hayes didn't leave and pass away, Chef would've just told the entire town to stop being progressive to get a fricking Whole Foods and to not have PC Principal act like an butthole.
South Park was made by israelites. That's all i need to know
>all these morons replying sincerely to pasta
My PhD supervisor has never touched a video game in his life but he watched this episode a few times ages ago and as a result he has a very accurate understanding of WoW
get back to your thesis writing, slave
Finished years ago
and they paid me to do it
good jorb. they paid me too. it feels good to work in STEM.
I was really pissed off when I started playing WoW and the game didn't have in-game voice chat like in the episode.
I think Blizzard actually added in voice chat at some point but it was total garbage and literally no one used it.
>I was really pissed off when I started playing WoW and the game didn't have in-game voice chat like in the episode.
Stan specifically says that they're using TeamSpeak.
>PLAYING GAMES GIVES YOU ACNE
No.
no but getting zero exercise and living off hotpockets and sugar water will
What do you guys think of this song
Why didn't the Blizzard devs just ban the troll?
Because that wouldn't be as funny, or i guess they gave some stupid reason in the episode about how he was killing devs or something like that, it's been a while since I've watched it
>tfw just realized Mr. Hankey was written out the show
How come I'm wrong for expecting PC Principal to be a one-off antagonist who was on the edge to beat up Jimmy, that Creek should've happened naturally instead of out of pressure from the town, or that Garrison being president was a huge Trump joke instead of an analysis of the most degenerate character in the show?
I enjoy PC Principal and he is probably the highlight of recent seasons. Creek should have never happened. I hate how Craig was dragged down from a rival character to the boys into Tweek's tard wrangler and I hate fujos.
I don't like PC Principal because his opening scene established he wants everything to change and was being setup as a good antagonist to go against the status quo South Park had, and then the town became "cult-like" like in the Britney Spears and Turd Sandwich/Giant Douche episodes where they all act in a hivemind with no opposition with him barely doing anything but beat the shit out of Cartman and almost threatening to beat up Jimmy, something that is the opposite on what a PC person would do.
>Creek should have never happened. I hate how Craig was dragged down from a rival character to the boys into Tweek's tard wrangler and I hate fujos.
The episode was all about the dangers of shipping real people and gayhagging, how did it go over everyone's heads? That's the cult mentality shit that makes the show unbearable.
>The episode was all about the dangers of shipping real people and gayhagging, how did it go over everyone's heads? That's the cult mentality shit that makes the show unbearable.
No, the episode was about how the media now uses being gay as a marketing tool and they initially made the episode because of years of people showing them gay art of Tweek and Craig. https://youtu.be/oSgYWRDekgo
People literally start giving Tweek and Craig money just for being gay. Either way, the show now actively panders to fujos.
>craig
but his name is Kregg
they literally call him Kregg for the whole 22 something seasons of the fricking show
It can work both ways to be honest. Criticsm of forced relationships based on external fan shipping and then actually support the community by having the characters stay together.
Also what the frick, where do I buy these?
Yes. Also one of the best SP episodes.
Who cares? It was a great episode
imagine taking fricking South Park, the show most known for being outrageous and ridiculous, seriously.
This episode made me really want to play WoW as a kid. It’s the only game that ever made me want a gaming pc growing up. I never got into but that seems like I dodged a bullet since Blizzard keeps going downhill and pc has nothing else of worth
A good chunk of all video game addicts are probably severely underweight. It goes both ways. You have a ton of lardasses who can't stop stuffing theur faces with junk food and soda, while on the other end of the spectrum you have dumbasses who just fricking forget to eat, or feel that eating would get in the way of their game.
fat gaming addicts are literally all the same, they have a parent, usually a mother, that brings them food all day. which is what cartman's mom did. addicts don't have time to even do rudimentary preparations, or even go grab a snack, so unless someone is bringing it to them, gamers are usually losing weight during their major addiction phases, I can think of twice in my life, once at 15 and once at 18, where I lost 40+ pounds in a 2-3 month period because I got too into shit and stopped eating and drinking for days at a time and my body was so hopped up on dopamine it wasn't even telling me I was hungry anymore.
That's not true, I get up for my own hot pockets.
But I'm also not an MMO gay, maybe it's genre-dependent.
nope, it's not MMO only, mine was Diablo 2. you simply were not as addicted, which by the way is a good thing, not a negative in any capacity, you probably did far less permanent damage to your body.
Isn't diablo just a singleplayer MMO?
>isn't an isometric arpg about the same as an MMO?
what
>MMO
you don't know what the frick MMO means, or what it used to mean in the golden days of ACTUAL Fricking MMOs
I bet you think WarThunder and World of Tanks are MMOs too
Reminder that Creek is kino.
It was an alright episode but I hated how little it had to do with World of Warcraft as an actual game outside of the machinima animation, they just made up complete bullshit for the plot. Chimpokomon did the same thing too but at least that episode was more about Pokemania than the actual pokemon games.
*in human history.
and the answer is yes.
What the frick were they thinking
>we're going to milk those fujos fricking dry
South Park should have ended a long time ago and it's clear that the creators are now the out of touch boomers that they used to parody
