cuba let me tell you about the time I looked up the use of an unusual quenching medium in the Witcher 3 and found that there was some precedent for it historically but was prepared to just go “eh, whatever, fantasy world” anyway but in the process discovered someone else being mad about this unusual quenching medium online and saying a bunch of wrong shit in their madness and so in the end I was irritated by someone else being an obnoxious pedant wrong

…and yet, the Steam sales charts say,

That can be interesting though! I just wanna learn something and get The Experience without getting my hands dirty or using my bulging and not at all atrophied muscles. It’s like car mechanic simulator: I don’t care about cars in real life but in the videogame world they are interesting objects
