To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Birzha Memov. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the Russian political climate most of the jokes will go over a typical player’s head. There’s also allusions to several Russian subcultures, which is deftly woven into the game's hero choices- the heroes Rem and Ram draw heavily from classical Russo-Japanese literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these references, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Birzha Memov truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Billy Herrington's existential catchphrase “GAY POWER,” which itself is a cryptic reference to edm artist NOMA’s renowned Brain Power. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as StrangeR’s genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them. :joy:

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Birzha Memov tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 MMR points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid :sunglasses:
