On a side note, what's the point of a publicist if they drop you the second bad publicity happens?
I am absolutely furious.I just found two that trapped themselves in a trash can in my 18 month old son's bedroom.I've called the exterminators. They've been coming here for a while costing me $70 a month.I'm done being humane to these things. Done. Tomorrow I get fucking medieval. I'm making 5 of these bucket drowner traps and putting them strategically around my house inside and out.Maybe you all can commiserate with me and tell me of your pest woes and how you went after 'em with the fury and fire of hell itself.
What shithole do you live in to have rats/mice in your crib.

i was referring to the western bias posts. like at the very least pull your head out of Japan's ass for a bit if you think ME:A is gonna win goty awards
What are Resettlement Advisors? Are they mini mods or something? They seem to push their weight around more than mods.

What makes this all the more interesting, though, is the fact that Rance is no angel himself. Indeed, he rapes a fellow adventurer within the first five minutes of the game and tends to assert his dominance over defeated female foes in the same way. Even the sexual relationships he develops with his friends and comrades in the resistance tread a fine line between consensual and non-consensual — usually veering somewhat towards the latter, at least the first time it happens — and what makes things even more interesting to ponder in this regard is that people just seem to sort of put up with Rance’s behaviour, often reacting to him abusing a young woman in front of them in the same way one would treat a toddler that deliberately pulled its pants down and shat on the floor.(...)Rance, by contrast, does some horrible things to people, but he doesn’t do so out of outright maliciousness or a desire to actually hurt people. In particular, he doesn’t act indiscriminately; rather, he deliberately seeks out women he regards as “beautiful”, and who he believes to be on a similar “level” to him in terms of society. And he’ll try to seduce them through his self-confidence first and foremost; rape is always his last resort, and even then sometimes he just cuts his losses and gives up, particularly when he values his friendship with someone more than his desire to stick his dick in them.(...)In other words, he doesn’t usually take advantage of his position as a powerful warrior to abuse people weaker than himself… though there is the odd occasion where he can’t quite help himself, most notably in Rance VI where he rescues a young woman from imprisonment only to immediately take advantage of her before releasing her.Rance acts this way for one of two reasons: as revenge for being wronged (or a way of “putting someone in their place”), or simply because he feels like doing it at the time — usually because he thinks he “deserves” it as a reward. The latter, you may argue, might make him little better than the mages who are raping second-class women, but there’s a marked difference in the tone of the scenes where Rance is abusing someone and those where we see how Zethian society operates.Even when Rance is having sex with someone who doesn’t want it, he is shown to have a certain degree of “consideration” for them; this might sound like a strange and inappropriate thing to say about rape — an inherently inconsiderate act, to put it mildly — but that’s really the best way of describing it, as paradoxical as it sounds.
...he only rapes as a last resort !
Stan for the Rance series, brehs.
Also, Rance can raise the level cap of his female party members by having sex with them, which also costs Orbs to do. If you’ve been paying attention to the lore, you’ll know this is because Rance is one of the only humans born without a level cap, so his semen carries a faint trace of his power. This allows his questionable “love” for “his women” to actually benefit them as well as allow him to selfishly derive pleasure.
Introduced as the last survivor of a tribe of “insect users”, Caloria is initially shy and reserved, but Rance’s honest caring for her and standing up for her when she is bullied causes her to develop into a delightfully pleasant young woman. When the pair of them inevitably end up in bed together, it’s one of the most notable examples of both parties clearly being there because they want to be there, and because they like each other on equal terms.
By contrast, elsewhere in the game we witness a group of mages gangraping a character who began as an antagonist and later becomes a reluctant ally. The scene is horrific and described in graphic detail while it is occurring; it’s clearly not designed to be titillating in any way whatsoever.
Rance VI is an incredible game. It’s mechanically well-crafted, its narrative is enjoyable, its characterisation is excellent, its humour is genuinely amusing and its willingness to unashamedly depict the darker side of humanity is rather refreshing in a world where creators are increasingly being encouraged to shy away from “problematic” material.
So it's a child-grooming rape simulator?Man the things these wacky Japanese come up with.
Hate people who feel the insesent need to discuss their shit holes.
Go whipe your ass and shut the fuck up about it.
Geez, take too many big dicks or something? Prolapsed?Or are you talking Swamp Ass, in which case you need to get an AC.
anyone remember rapelay?
the not-bash-GAF rule didn't last very long

Not closing down the site. Sorry that things have been slow going to get back on track and deal with some of the trolls and nonsense on here, especially in Off-Topic, but we're getting new mods in now and they'll be up to speed soon and start getting hands-on with discussions. We'll talk soon. Thanks.
