Edit: This thread is not saying video games cause gun violence, this is about the industry expressing their stance on gun violence with games that feature gun violence.

With all these shooting tragedies that happen so frequently, I cant help that the industry is not doing enough to denounce gun violence. I have been thinking about this a lot after playing DMC5: SE recently because Capcom went out of their way to say the game did not promote the use of cigarettes in an in-game message.... right after the character (Nero) was shooting at enemies from a van in a flashy intro scene. So it was kind of odd to condemn the cigarette usage but not using guns.

Now, DMC is more of a fantasy series where the enemies are demons, but there are many games where you shoot at humans as we all are aware on this forum. Personally, I think the industry has gone long enough without taking a stance and allowing players/consumers of all ages to get the message of what using a gun outside a game and in real life can cause/lead to. I really believe that at least one potential shooter could be stopped with this.

How would you guys feel about this in games?

Is this victim blaming?

While I do think people should have religious freedom and Islam gets disproportionate hate, that idea of including hijab in progressive messages it blows my mind.

“The industry is not doing enough about gun violence”

Why in America do we need private corporations to solve our social and political problems? (Rhetorical question)

Quote from: NinjaScooter
Because what we need to combat gun violence in America is more empty gestures.

Quote from: Kaijiu
No. Instead, video game companies should start giving more of a shit that many of their communities are breeding grounds for radicalisation, rampant misogyny and hatred toward minorities.

Quote from: Souls Survivor
Absolutely not. If anything needs a disclaimer, it's that the developers can not and should not stand for being scapegoated by right wings politicians and talking heads trying to distract from the fact that the blood of American mass shootings is dripping from their hands.

Quote from: Neoxon
Video games aren’t to the root of the problem, so no. We don’t need to cater to Republican talking points that attempt to misdirect the real source of the problem, fuck them.

I get where you’re coming from in terms of wanting to shine a light on the real problem, but don’t underestimate Republicans’ ability to spin things. Give them an inch, they’ll go a fucking mile.

If the topic was abortion rights and not gun violence, how many of these posters would be banned?

If the US wants to start combatting gun violence, it should first start in poorer, predominantly black, communities where gun violence happens on a daily basis and which does the most damage and claims the most lives. But Reeeeesetera isn't going to touch that one.

Because surely no one would have died under another term of Donald Trump?

Quote
Trump being re-elected brings about a fear in me that Putin would be even more empowered to try to start World War 3 having the US as an ally.

Quote
Covid was a much needed wake up call about man's encrotchment into wild habitats/environment, the dangers of our current use of animals as a food source and a very salient example of something global warming will probably make more frequent. It sucked but if it wasn't covid in 2020 it would have been something else, potentially worse, eventually. Also I'm not american so Trump doesn't register, I'm too busy keeping my own far right, russian assets from wrecking shit.
So I choose this timeline even though it wreaked havoc on my mental health, still climbing back from that shit.

I lost my grandfather. I wasn't allowed to say goodbye to him. I couldn't even hug my relatives at the funeral. Did I experience enough pain to check your box?

But I care about:
- The environmental collapse of the planet
- The destruction of American and worldwide democracy
- The future of all minorities who were vilified under Trump

User Banned (2 Weeks): Creation of inappropriate, inflammatory thread, thread making privileges revoked

Today, in Constructive, a moderator again tells a member rules are selectively enforced and the best way to find out if your thread will break one is by making it and seeing what happens:
Quote from: PSOreo
I have a general open question I’d love feedback on. Why is one of the foundations of thread creations, mentioned in the rules, constantly ignored? I’m talking about effort.

“When you create a thread, you should include more than just one or two short sentences..”

I see mods doing this repeatedly. Why is it ignored and not enforced? Is it just easier to drive user engagement on the site to allow it? If that’s the case then why include it in the rules from day one?

I'm always hesitant to make a thread incase I'm unable to give it enough substance or detail but then I just see hundreds of lazily created threads over the last year and makes me wonder why I even worry. I might have a false memory but I feel threads used to get shut down quickly if they were lazy and low effort.
Quote from: FliX
I am sure you will appreciate that this is hardly a cut and dry rule. With easy to define and narrow boundaries. We are not going to start counting characters and locking anything under 200 words.
I think overall we probably don't moderate to that rule a lot regardless of thread author. Probably because we don't want to be accused of not letting our hair down and being a "no fun allowed" kinda place...
And I am pretty sure you'd have to be really egregious and constantly so to get more than the thread locked.
So in other words, you are probably overthinking it, create the thread. worst case someone will come in and lock it down, I would not expect a ban or even a warning for anything benign.

"Probably because we don't want to be accused of not letting our hair down and being a "no fun allowed" kinda place..." reads funny given how fond they are of "do we really need a thread about ______" as a lock reason

So much for fuck Sony and Jim Ryan :lol

A lot of the forum has diehard Sony fanboys or actual Sony employees. Uncharted the movie is being propped up right now on gaming side, which stars Marky Mark, who is more conservative than Demon Chappelle. Marky Mark also blinded an Asian person, but he's in Uncharted, so he's good people fam.

Along with scientology sympathizers or actual scientologists. People like Tom Cruise or Will Smith have staunch defenders, while Dave Chappelle or Bill Burr are genuine Trans holocaust demons part of the anti Trans cabal.

Resetera is genuinely one of the most slimy and gross forums out there right now.

Reset will forgive anything that does good box office. The MCU is a glorified CW show with $200m budgets, and they think they're good movies.

This thick cunt really expects millions of people to just start robbing their local McDonalds for milk, sauce and whatever else they can try to get for free, so they replicate this stupid experiment? And imagine just relying on luck for your nutrition, just hoping a promotional burger falls into your lap every day. I fucking hate landlords.
Quote from: Razmos
Stuff like this always feels more like its taking the piss more than anything, even people with no money wouldn't be trying to live off £1 a day and going to such extremes I feel. It always comes across as "look I can do it so why can't you" when the guy is no danger of ever needing to do so since he's a scum landlord.

Even if he's trying to frame it as "nobody could live like this" it still just feels scummy and mocking

If you're unable to open a physical door release you shouldn't be driving. I mean that literally, I think it's part of a fitness test.

This thick cunt really expects millions of people to just start robbing their local McDonalds for milk, sauce and whatever else they can try to get for free, so they replicate this stupid experiment? And imagine just relying on luck for your nutrition, just hoping a promotional burger falls into your lap every day. I fucking hate landlords.

Stuff like this always feels more like its taking the piss more than anything, even people with no money wouldn't be trying to live off £1 a day and going to such extremes I feel. It always comes across as "look I can do it so why can't you" when the guy is no danger of ever needing to do so since he's a scum landlord.

Even if he's trying to frame it as "nobody could live like this" it still just feels scummy and mocking

So am I supposed to hate this disgusting Tory scum landlord cunt or am I supposed to laud this Labour-voting small businessman who is raising awareness about poverty.

Covid was a much needed wake up call about man's encrotchment into wild habitats/environment

Encrotchment?

Is that like when men take their penises and fuck the environment or something?

That's ableism really there's nothing about driving that requires someone to be strong enough to push a door which can be difficult for somebody with arthritis or so many other conditions.
Quote
How about when the car is on fire, which is the point of this thread?
Quote
This is absurd. The amount of force required to open a car door isn't much higher than the force required to turn the steering wheel. If you're really that infirm it's unlikely that you'd be able to physically drive in the first place.
It actually is part of a fitness test. For police.

There is no fitness test for people to have a drivers license. The vision test is mostly something you're supposed to disclose, the standards on the one you take are so low that it's near impossible to fail in a way that denies you a license.

Anyway:

Earnest question: are there any in-jokes and memes there? Decaying jokes like Thor 2 and Italian meal were in rotation last I read. There’s a reason Chappelle in 2022 isn’t yelling I’m Rick James on stage.

YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHEN THE GUY ACCESSED ERA FROM A DREAMCAST?
THE DREAMCAST HE WATCHED PORN WITH HIS BUDDIES ON?

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Era has a ton of memes, but they're all at their expense, not in-jokes;
 - history of histories
 - no fun allowed
 - 'this is why _____ are leaving in droves'
 - SUMMIT NOW
 - '[innocuous activity like reading] is an alt-right flag'
 etc etc etc

I've never come across a fanbase that has such a long history of being so consistently caustic to the people make the media they consume. Damn near everybody that works with Star Wars in a visible way had a story to tell.
