▲ -14 ▼ There should be as many video games where players kill imaginary dogs as there are games where players kill imaginary people.

I have beaten both 1 & 2. I’m not some kind of pacifist. I just get tired of shooting at imaginary people. So… I thought one day I would get some practice with the sniper rifle killing stray dogs. Holy shit! The game threw a fit! Full on murderous possie immediately. But here’s what’s worse: the game HID ALL THE DOGS. So… it just made shooting the dogs more special. Btw— I did this more in 1 than 2. And I can’t find dogs in GTAV. Mostly I won’t shoot imaginary people anymore. Just dogs. It’s a thrill.

The vast majority of these turn out NOT to be unpopular. I still love all my lemmings but this is honestly the first time they have surprised me with a totally illogical reaction. First: video games hurt no one Second: fantasizing about killing people is gross. Third: fantasizing about killing dogs is gross. Fourth: 87.9 BILLION animals are slaughtered for food globally annually. Fifth: I snipe one dog in RDR and the whole effing town goes effing ape shit Sixth: I present an unpopular opinion in a Lemmy comm and get downvoted. Oh well. I forgive you all. No ones perfect. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] ramasses@social.ozymandias.club 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 child) "They are eating the cats.
