I’m not sure what your actual objection is here. Are you just taking issue with GP’s use of the word “never”?

From the guidelines:

"Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes."

She's a woman, so it's correct to call her a "woman". No agenda here, necessarily.

I tried to guess "A Gnome called Gnorm" but it wasn't even an available option :(

Tactics Advance is a good time as well, if you enjoyed Tactics. Different in some ways, but similar mechanically

> I've never met anyone who has interpreted either the novel or film to glorify violence.

From the article:

"Kubrick himself, in response to a series of murder trials where the defendants explicitly mentioned his work..."

Seriously. While I understand that there's a human side to this whole thing, I can't help but hope that whoever was in charge of the recent desktop UI mangling was part of this 2%

What is Geocities?

Fixed it for you. There were so many kind ways that you could have phrased your statement; please avoid inflammatory comments.

The biggest obstacle stopping Neuromancer from being a viable TV show, IMO, is the lack of cohesion between chapters - readers are frequently dumped into the middle of entirely different circumstances than the previous chapter, just as they were maybe getting a grip on what was going on. And honestly, it kind of works! The pacing would be far too slow if characters stopped every five minutes to explain what was going on for the audience's sake. Hypothetically this could work in an episodic format, but will it be signed off on by conservative showrunners/execs? I'd guess no, but will remain cautiously optimistic.

Not to entirely disagree with you, but comparing football to Counter Strike is kind of an apples-to-oranges comparison - you're comparing an introduction to something new with something that most American viewers have probably known for their entire lives, so that factor of "explainability" doesn't exactly apply to it.

How else are you supposed to convince someone of a point, if not by mentioning the evidence?
