Edit: Original link was removed for Rule 6, but the YouTube version is up now anyways. Edited to replace the link because it’d be a shame for good discussion to be lost.

    This video demo was 25 minutes out of a game that’s going to be more than 30 hours, most likely. It seems strange to expect to be able to evaluate its satire off of such a small sample.

    They parodied how strange our drug ad laws are and how much of a crutch we use drugs as. Then the fast food commercial started by showing a wide ecosystem of animals that were seemingly all killed for one sandwich, because no one can fit a sandwich that big in their mouth; then it labeled it as 30,000 calories, which is about 10-15x what most people will or should eat in a day. Jokes are rarely funnier when someone explains them to you, but you asked what the parody was.
