The point was to illustrate a counter-example to your coffee example and that you can control (at least some) of your wants (which you previously said that one can’t do). I would be curious to hear your definition of want (and have to, for that matter). You seem to be using it as an umbrella term that covers everything from physical urges to something a person thinks would subjectively benefit them.

It still was your choice, people regularly go against the societal norms and desires imposed from the outside. Like, I never started smoking, although both of my parents and a lot of my peers did.

I mean, you chose to taste it again when you knew you didn’t like the taste. That’s how acquired tastes work, you start liking something after repeated exposure.

If you care about this - the developer Unfrozen is russian in origin (although they are trying to make everyone forget about it), one of the investors that funded their previous game (Iratus), GEM Capital, has ties with the russian gas and oil business.

I think they’ve meant world’s view, not worldview

I’m kinda confused. Why do so many people (including this article) treat this as a reboot of the first movie, when the creatives have said that it’s another adaptation of the original graphic novel? And why is everyone suddenly so protective of the legacy of Brandon Lee, when there’s already been a direct sequel to his movie and a separate TV series?
