Seems like this would be a pretty easy thing for them to fix

Didn't watch a video yet beyond intro, but i was under the impression a "blind playthrough" was not literal. Meaning its a game you've never played before, not that you can't see. How can they ban that tag? That's a legit good thing to know if its somebody's first experience with a game.

The Puritans were kicked out of England and into the colonies because they were obsessed with banning everything for being offensive. The difference between now and then is that disruptive people are given a platform.

Words can mean multiple things. "Going into something blind" isn't a shot at blind people. Anyone taking it that way probably can't sit down because of a stick in their bum.

Yeah, I have. I just prefer to make basic, more entertainingly phrased comments and forget this is GameFAQs where "ackshully" is king.

They left willingly because they felt it was a den of sin and were upset with the church of england, and then they went to the netherlands (lol).
I get what you're trying to say, but, you're literally telling the opposite of what happened.

I know. It's a half-truth. The Puritans/Republicans became wildly unpopular with everyone else. It wasn't just them wanting to leave, it was a bit of both.

Quakers got kicked the fuck out because they were shitters, but, that's the quakers.
