Yet another GAF thread - I still haven't got over it :( (No spergfits allowed)

Stump seems like one of the fews mods concerned with correcting previously shitty permabans.


Except for Demi, of course.

Will he fix mine? it is a mystery.

I think GAF's mods, and GAF's entire userbase for that matter, unanimously agree on the status of your ban.

Perm for ad block is a bit extreme, no?

[Momo]

Misc is seriously one of the worst shitholes on the internet. Like, worse than 4chan. Who would have thought a forum about lifting would be a breeding ground for such unfiltered stupidity?

Thats the point, thats why I enjoy reading misc

sometimes I wonder why these mega corporations even have marketing teams when there are so many ballwashers like Bgamer90 around. He is the worst kind of shill, the one that does it willingly and for free.

[nudemacusers]

the worst are people who drop corporations in their usernames 

[El Babua]

Good thing you only drop product lines. Unless you're in league with the makeup company too.

"Wii U! You stupid console! Sell! Please!"

I will admit however:

Now, consider that the Wii U is the last home console with free online play, and you’ve got an extra card in its deck.

Point. But they should add "last home console with free (crappy) online play" and it'd be true.

If Nintendo had a service on par with PSN and XBL? I'd crow its free online from the rooftops for ages.

So many chicks play blizzard games it's unreal, and from my admittedly anecdotal experience they almost always went for outfits or armour that showed a little skin. Now, i think this is my mostly to do with these kinds of games attract people more into the exaggerated comic book style of art in the first place, in miniature/statuette sculpting terminology we'd call it heroic scale.

Now, devo will probably dildo my ass.

[brob]

Isn't it a staple of those sorts of games to have a billion different characters and heaps of skins and other visual trinketry? Unless they are taking a principled stand against non-sexy warrior women I don't see why they wouldn't just make all sorts of designs that appeal to different people.

yes, look at all those third party games taking advantage of the Wii U's online infrastructure.

And it wasn't even John Walker as I'd initially expected.
Predictably most reactions decry RPS's 'activism' in the last years. I don't get it.

[Shadow Mod]

Some armor was decent in WoW. Some armor was "lol vitals out."

[thisismyusername]

To be fair, Blizzard and Samwise Didier might be guilty of making some typical fantasy titties out character models but the Warcraft and Starcraft games have always been pretty good about including female characters, making them playable, and integrating them into the story well.

...While having their titties out. come on.

Like I said, if Nintendo had a service on par with XBL/PSN? I'd crow it to anyone that would listen. After that Nintendo would have to work on their third party situation, something that they probably won't do but in a perfect world would.

Then you could go "yeah, it's not a graphical powerhouse on par with the PS4/X-box, but you don't have to pay anything to play Battlefield and Call of Duty and other shooters online." That'd sway some people.

About as repetitive as the similarly dressed buff male characters?


honestly I can't get worked up over this. Hyper masculine/hyper sexualized exaggerated fantasy art

[Shadow Mod]

You should know better than to act like I think the male representations are awesome either. Thanks for the GAF post.

I'm not even worked up. I played the games. It just gets repetitive and dumb.

[Yulwei]

It doesn't even look good. It just looks fucking stupid. The artists who continiously come up with those distinguished mentally-challenged bikini plate designs must be some aspergers motherfuckers

i paraphrase whoever said this in the first place, but with RPS it really feels like:

graphics
gameplay
price
release date
gender equality

their questions are never part of a wider exploration of social themes and it never feels like they're looking for a real conversation, just a soapbox to deploy their begged questions on a dude doing the PR rounds.

the problem is, thematically, these games are dumb as shit.

[Verdigris Murder]

Kinda disappointing that Dookakes so precious about his words. I love a good pun, but don't IP it, that's just sad.

i know a guy whose internet self is identical. an effervescent punmaster wordsmith with exactly the same kind of wry retorts and weird sense of ownership over them.

in real life he can barely hold eye contact.

Appended. And yeah, fair enough, they'd be better off talking with developers about this when they want to talk about development, not when they're just marketing.

[nachobro]

The whole thing is distinguished mentally-challenged. RPS mad over a roller derby DLC outfit that shows less skin than most roller derby players. D Bro is a cunt but his response of "Uh-huh. Cool. Totally." is exactly what the dude deserved.

[Shadow Mod]

At this point it's like everyone involved in these kind of situations is some kind of asshole. You don't win taking any side. It's all just so embarrassing each and every time.

[Himu]

Requesting equality is fine. Trying to find something to prove isn't. RPS is out of line.

My issue is that gender equality is becoming some thing for journo hits/controversy rather than a real issue worthy of a round table civil discussion.

[Himu]

Exactly my point. They don't want a conversation, they just want hits. Hence "something to prove."

WoW's art fucking sucks. That style is so ugly.

The tech is so outdated that artistic styles don't really matter.   Everything just looks flat and blocky.  The boobs are made of like 2 polygons.  It probably isn't possible to tell the females apart if not for the bra armors.   

[Rufus]

There's that too, although I hear the next expansion is going to re-vamp the models. But aesthetically it's just - ugly.

Nah being a cock at a press event, getting your interview cut short, and then proclaiming victory is "real journalism", didn't you hear?

[Himu]

I love WoW's aesthetics, the problem are the DESIGNS. But when it comes to art design of the locales, it's a beaut. Make WoW F2P so I can jump back in.

[Shadow Mod]

They aren't going to make that cash cow F2P.

[Phoenix Dark]

Didn't she do a scene with Mr. Marcus?

[nachobro]

They aren't going to make that cash cow F2P.

In a few years maybe. But right now they have a subscription AND sell in-game items F2P style. Best of both worlds!

So many players with 2, 3 4 accounts each for 15 bucks a month. Why bother.

The multiple account thing I don't get, but people just want to play what their friends are playing. Nothing wrong with that.

My inner nerdlinger says that multiboxing is the most hardcore shit possible...my rational self says that the carrot in the carrot and stick genre doesn't actually exist...so what's the fucking point.

[Phoenix Dark]

I knew a multiboxer who would raid heal (with a shaman) while also playing a mage.

[StealthFan]

Multiboxing is when gaming becomes pure work. Terrible stuff.

Then again you are playing an MMO, so there wasn't going to be much fun in the first place.
