I like reading the comments on videogame death scenes.

Some poor guy lamenting Soup from the Modern Warfare franchise. Stuff from the Gears of War games being considered the most emotional in gaming.

It's great.

[kingv]

I wonder if advertisers can just choose to only be displayed next to no comments videos. That would seem to be a solution.

YouTube might not currently give that option, though since they likely feel they know better than advertisers, and also maybe prefer showing on video comments because people come back to the same video over and over again for said comments.

Hang on, hang on. Lion Pride is black. And I know for a fact that Peoples Of Color can't be racist. They've told me this on RetardEDA dozens of times already.

Saying that you get hit on the most when you're in a back corner in your sweats is most likely mistaking people making sure you're OK as "hitting" on you.

[wsippel]

Herbs, salt, butter, and lard isn't spice. For North and West Europe, I still don't understand how the food is so lightly spiced. The UK had India for so long, where many of the world's spices originate from, and for the most part the UK ignored it.

Europe isn't just Scandinavia and the UK.

And this is just the first couple of pages!

This figure is an abomination unto God.

Surprised they didn’t model her butt hole. Seriously creepy.

If I walked into someone’s house and saw this abomination, I would punch them right in the nose and then call the police but the cops wouldn’t arrest me.

I am apalled that they went through all that trouble of meticulously countouring that skin tight, hermetically sealed via vacuum outfit and they didn't even bother to sculpt the butthole. Apalled I say! So much for attention to detail.

1. It doesn't fit her character.
2. You go through the trouble of modeling Johanna, and yet you put focus on the least interesting part of that design.
3. If you really needed a sexy pose, there are a ton of less tacky motorcycle poses than that.

I'm obviously not the target audience for this, and as a fan of the character, it stings a tiny bit.

Here is my collection, big bad guy. Anything that makes you feel compelled to punch me as well?

God that pose is just awful.

Like, do people find that sexy? It just looks unnatural and painful.

The pose is the best part of the figure.

wow that is

so gross and not at all what i wanted to see.

imagine being the kind of sad creep that faps to an underage anime girl's ass

Apparently you don't have to imagine; just ask many people in this thread what it's like.

This is what I thought the thread title was referring to.

And some more choice quotes:
https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-best-persona-character-is-now-colored-character-figurine.7992/

I imagine most of the people who have these openly displayed either don't get many visitors or have very accommodating roommates.

Or we just don’t care. I know, it’s so weird being comfortable with yourself to the point where you can openly display the things you like.

Family, friends, neighbors, etc have all seen my colllection. And guess what? The worst I’ve gotten is ‘well, whatever makes you happy’ and it’s never brought up again. My neighbor’s seven year old kid loves them, she thinks they’re ‘real pretty’. My wife’s boss thinks they’re works of art.

Stereotypes are fun, I suppose.

I would like to say, as someone who also buys animu figures, in response to that line:
 

So you're comfortable with sexualization of a teenager?

I'm not trying to be hostile btw, I'm just honestly curious about whether people consider the connotations involved with pieces like this, esp of younger characters.

Makoto is a strong character whose problems are not specific to those of an underage person, and she has the body of someone who could pass for 20+.

If you have problems with some of the ‘1000 year old loli dragons’ then that’s another story, but I really don’t see any issues with this figure, outside of I just don’t like the pose that much.

There are no connotations to consider. No feelings to hurt. She isn't real. Why do people insist on pretending otherwise?

People can like whatever they want when it comes to Art and shit. The moment such fancies carry over to realty, then we rightfully have a problem.

A question like that isn't designed to elicit proper conversation, you're just looking to alienate, conform to western groupthink, and claim some assumed moral highground on behalf of a fictitious character.

Also I had no idea they made a toy of this.  LMAO.

So for those that don't know, Shaun is a YouTube essayist who explains and debunks alt-right talking points and other less vile stuff (i.e The Great Replacement Isn't Real, CinemaSins Is Still Wrong, Quebec Mosque Shooting: Manufacturing A Conspiracy). Usually he doesn't cover video games but since he just finished Cuphead himself he came across an interesting controversy. In the video below he breaks down how the alt-right and GamerGate remnants have created a fake controversy that SJW's and video game critics are labeling the game is racist when that is not at all the case.

Amazing. They just had a 10+ page thread labeling it problematic and racist. Now that's all imagined.

I feel like sexy anime statue figures are kind of lame, but it’s not really all that important either.

So what's your opinion on all of this?  You are just posting opinions of both fans of these figures and detractors and laughing.. reminds me of Amirox putting down pedos.

It's another toy for nerds and who cares if you like it or hate it.  It's just always the same thing with NeoGAF and now ResetEra having anything remotely "sexy" get shit on and derailed by the people who find it "gross."  Dude was asking for it by creating a thread for it in the first place though.  They have a figure thread...post it there.

As for the latter, I have a problem with figures made of little girls and (actual) sexual stuff.  There's some really sick shit that gets made in Japan and I guess it's your Amirox types buying it, although I don't think anyone on the forums has ever posted that they have that stuff.  I do wonder about the posters with the hentai "ahegao" avatars though.

Back in 2013! Gutted me. I think for the finale they went all out and told horrible tasteless jokes. I mean, more tasteless than usual. On occasion I'll put a rerun on in the background. Haven't seen a show as raw since.

Joel McHale got too big for his Soup britches I guess.

E! just didn't want any more comedy shows because the writers were unionized

[shosta]

You guys are talking about Talk Soup, right?

I never saw Talk Soup, only it's successor with Joel McHale.

[Purple Filth]

Talk Soup was pretty good.

and iirc aisha tyler was hosting it for a bit after John Henson left

[Boredfrom]

I don't get the appeal of Hyperlewd anime figures, I like lewd stuff butb I have limits in behalf of figures.

[bork]

The show had a number of hosts:

Greg Kinnear (1991–1995)
John Henson (1995–1999)
Hal Sparks (1999–2000)
Aisha Tyler (2001–2002)
Joel McHale (2004-2015)

I don't remember Greg Kinnear and Hal Sparks as hosts, but I do remember John Henson because of that patch of white hair he had, heh.

Cream : current hardest working person in troll business.

All the people talking about how they ignore politics just to have a good time are part of the reason we're in this mess

https://www.resetera.com/posts/1369296/

I posted earlier in this thread, but things got worse for me. I got into a fight with my fiance's parents last night at a restaurant. The mother got mad at me on my phone and took it away. I'm not a fucking child so I went to the bathroom to calm down before I said something I'd regret. During that time my fiancé got a ear full from her father about how he hates my Facebook cause I post news on politics daily. He's being very pro trump and close to the alt right shit from what I've heard and seen. My fiancé was about to cry and everything about the bad mouthing. What's worse is when I came back they were all apologetic and super nice to me and shit. Fucking two face assholes. Apparently my Facebook is so toxic that it's bothering her as well. All I do is post news updates and make a sentence or two on my opionion, I can't fucking help it when idiotic politicians do stupid shit. I should of known something was up when the father has been cutting deep with jokes about me lately since I came. So now all I can think about is how I try to spread what's going on in the world and I'm hated by everyone for it. I just wanna disappear.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/1373254/

Poor guy.

You should honestly just call them out directly. Don't just complain here. Force a confrontation and call out your fiancé's father on his shitty views. Start it out on Facebook if you have to by calling out his name as someone who is too much of a coward to actually have the discussion and "appears to be demanding a safe space from non-conservative views".

Otherwise that asshole is going to continue his tactics to treat you and your fiancé like shit. Don't let that asshole do that. And don't hold back. Just fucking call him out until HE'S the one that does something he regrets so that you end up suddenly as the person with leverage.

I blocked his and their family from seeing my posts, so the issue is resolved. I don't see the need for my fiancé to be destroyed from the inside out by causing conflict. I deal and move on.

Don't you realize that if you don't force a pointless Facebook confrontation it's your fault Trump was elected ?

Hello. I just wanted to clarify that the thread in question was generating a large number of reports and that other users did have real concerns about it not being safe for their work. The red post in this thread was not intended as a reprimand but as a gentle reminder, but in hindsight we acknowledge that this may have come off as guilt by association. We regret that. As Nicole has already stated, you've done a good job of policing yourselves and we appreciate that very much. Please keep it up. We are not looking for reasons to moderate anyone; we are far too busy for that.

Cerium's sooooo corporate. Also busy doing what?

[nudemacusers]

Just a matter of time before someone oopsies and post a 10yo ‘lewd’ figure link and everyone circles around it with subtle “post this to our line chat, you silly goose” instead of ejecting them from their nesting ground.

nevermind that I bet half the posters have some henoius shit in their “share my figurines ” profiles on those loserwank collector sites.

What's silly is to pretend there's a single thing in TW3 too demanding for the Switch to run it. You start speaking about "excessive cuts" but you refuse to specify what those "excessive" cuts are.

Would The Witcher 3 be a much worse game if it rendered at native 720p and used lower settings than PS4/XBOX One?
To me it would be the same repetitive, design-broken game with a good plot that it currently is.

OK, let me see if I got this right:

1. A forum member creates a thread in gaming about a Persona 5 figure and it predictably becomes all about it being lewd/gross/creepy/etc.
2. The thread is locked and images of figures are removed.
3. SweetNicole then goes into the figure thread and posts "I'm not sure if the user who posted the Persona OP is a member of this community, but we've clarified our NSFW policy in here before. If it is NSFW, questionably NSFW, or borderline NSFW, do not post it on this site."
4. Someone responds that the poster has never even posted in their thread.

5. Awkwardness ensues:
"Hi, I wasn't blaming Figure ERA for the thread. Y'all seem to have been doing a good job. I just wanted to step in and remind of the NSFW policy since I figured some in this thead would have questions. "

And she's an administrator?  LMAO.

The Figure guys know what's up:

I think we pretty know what the mods here think of those filthy Japanese figure collectors.

If that thread got locked because the Makoto figure was too lewd, then this thread is done. Even on this very page there's a King of Fighters Mai figure which bares more skin than that Makoto.

This one is great:

Even pictures of a Victor from Yuri on Ice figure got removed for being NSFW. Fully clothed and not much worse (if at all) than actual figure skating shots, mind you.

This is baffling.

I don't know if this was the figure, but if it was this, LMAO.

Why are we here instead of on NeoGAF?
Good question. On the 10th of May, 2015, a day which will live in infamy, Colette was talking about a figure but didn't want to specify which one due to it being NSFW. A few people who were curious what she was talking about asked for more details (and recommending flagging link as NSFW if it was). She posted a link with NSFW warning and was perma-banned shortly after and the whole figure community was closed down as a result. The post itself was outright deleted instead of edited by a mod, but you can read the tail end of the thread here if you wish. [ext link ]. To answer your next question, it was this figure item #287569
