It took me less than an hour as well. I did the Steel Path version, and got one main Dante bp and more than enough pity points to buy the rest. In fact, I got pretty far into building all of the new stuff. I bought the hand cannon bp and two or three of the pieces of the melee as well. It's really quite painless, comparatively.

"Narcissist" is not a slur about a group of people with a disease. The word refers to being self-centered in general, and comes from a Greek myth in which a young man (Narcissus) falls in love with his own reflection. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is not a "crippling disability," it's a personality disorder which can be worked around with counseling (psychotherapy) and effort. Calling it a "crippling disability" makes it seem insurmountable and that is not a healthy attitude. Also it isn't caused by having been abused as a child. In fact, there's no consensus about what causes it (or any other personality disorder). It's believed to be a complex interaction between biological and social factors, but there is no specific formula for causing it.

Please educate yourself about these issues before criticizing others. The misinformation you're spreading does more to harm those affected by mental illness than to help them. If you're really interested in helping and defending them, this is not the way.

Not every communication channel is an appropriate forum for airing your political and social views. Can you imagine having to be a moderator for a company like that? Worse: can you imagine having to be the person responsible for setting the company rules that the moderator has to enforce? Do you think that it's even possible to list every type of speech that is allowed, every exception to a general rule, and every other tolerated behavior? Of course it isn't. That's why teams set general rules to make things easier and ensure fairness. Rules like "no political talk" or "no real world controversy." That way, they don't have to take a side in any debates and they can ensure that the moderators will treat each instance the same, regardless of their own personal views. It doesn't matter if the moderator is themselves a fascist, or lives in some country, or supports some cause, because any talk about those subjects at all gets the boot, no matter which side is doing the talking. And every moderator will react the same because it doesn't call for much of a value judgment, so you can ensure consistency.

Besides: why would you think that a Twitch stream from a gaming company would be the right place to start a debate about Italian political history?

I've got a better idea: enable downvotes so we can give this post (and others like it) the treatment they deserve.

Seriously, "its [sic] obvious this is a failed experiment" after less than one week? And "a majority of users aren't going to sign up for yet another site"... except for you? Give it a rest.
