People shilling “ironically” for Bobby political opinions:

https://www.resetera.com/posts/13218068/

everyone knows bobby's seminal work is his article for Portland Mercury's Blogtown, the tour de force, no, magnum opus, "Solo: A Star Wars Story Review: This Movie Shouldn’t Work. It Does."

Ever since Disney gave George Lucas a $4 billion check in exchange for all things Star Wars, the squallingest sections of fandom have repeated the same whining complaints whenever a new Star War happens: “It’s pandering fan service!” “They’re milking our nostalgia!” “They’re turning Star Wars into Marvel!” This cynical cacophony usually comes from pissbabies who don’t remotely know what the fuck they’re talking about,

 

Haha even in a printed review he sounds like a childish little fanboy who can't stand the fact there are people out there who don't like the Disney offerings of his cherished franchise.

This little exchange made me laugh:

What did you bring in, as far as sabers? I've 'open carried' my saber hilt on my belt for the R1 and TLJ, but it's a nice metal hilt and I'm always worried about security thinking it's a real weapon or something. I've never brought the blade with me as well.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/8287631/

Brought an Ultrasaber Manticore and an Electrum Sabercrafts Remnant. It's fun to bring the full Blade, but can be a bit of a hassle to keep during the movie.

I live in Australia though so there's a bit less of a chance of people thinking I'm carrying a weapon, so can't really comment on that

https://www.resetera.com/posts/8287786/

Cool I have a Remnant too! How do you like it? I've had a battery issue basically since a week or two after I received it, currently in the process of sending it in for a repair.
My main saber is a Vader's Vault - Ardent:

Can you imagine the amount of 'side-eye' these fuckers get when they turn up to the theatre? I wouldn't be surprised if they're both over 30 as well.

We moved to a neighborhood that is majority white and it's very uncomfortable. We bought the house before Trump was elected and I can honestly say that if I knew beforehand this was Trump town we wouldn't have moved here.

This election has changed me. No matter how nice the neighbors are, and they have been nice so far, I can't forget that they are Trumpers so I keep my distance. I try to keep our relationship as hand waves and hello, nothing more.

I'm black.

I open carry my saber to their moms houses.

Funny you should say that. I often go to the cinema when Star Wars is showing and stand at the back of the line with a massive erection and my cock painted bright blue. I swing it side to side while making saber noises. It must be pretty realistic because most people scream and run. They must think I am going to chop them in half or something. I shout, "It's not real, don't worry!".

Duckroll is the type of dude who holds grudges for years, which he can only express in random bitchy outbursts like this. This is combined with his persona of an east asian who holds poorly obscured racial resentment towards the japanese but still completely defines himself by their nerdy cultural products.

Idk man, I'm white and when I get into areas of town that are full of Trump/Don't Tread On Me/Confederate flag shit, I get nervous too.

He didn't mention Conf stuff.  Didn't something like 60% of white people vote for Trump? These towns are probably super common. 

[Propagandhim]

It's white as fuck here and like 90% voted for Clinton;  so in any somewhat Rural area it's going to be way over the 60% average since us city boys throw off the curve.

North NJ here and it's majority Republican here.  Not like 90%, but the majority.  Over 1 in 2 people are going to be Trump voters and there's nothing to be terrified about over here.   Shrug.

Well I'm not going to tell a black person to be comfortable around Trump voters, but you do you.

I'm not going to tell anyone anything.  He bought a house in a neighborhood he likes, is treated just fine, and then discovers he lives around people that don't all vote Democrat.  Now he's terrified.  Seems like an overblown reaction, but what do I know.

'don't all vote democrat' is a very charitable assessment of trumpeteers

[Propagandhim]

'don't all vote democrat' is a very charitable assessment of trumpeteers

If you look at voting demographics from year to year, it barely changes.  From McCain to Trump, the needle barely moved.  It's just a reality that people largely vote everything along party lines.  They're not 'Trumpeters', they're just Republicans.

[Propagandhim]

He said he's uncomfortable, you are ironically exaggerating that to him being terrified and calling his reaction overblown.

Thread goes as expected.

Some of them seem very upset that hate speech laws go both ways

I mean, Youtube, the home of many different strains of nazis and fascists with millions of subs who love to talk about how the blacks or the jews or the muslims should all be eradicated, that's A-okay.

 

[Nabbis]

I would be much more worried if i lived near poor people, don't give a shit what they voted.

[venereology]

it's why people like era calling all trump voters white supremacists is a fallacy. I mean sure they're not helping anything by doing it, but people just vote for their party. Even if they hate the candidate (hi Hillary).

I'm sure it helps a lot of people rationalize situations to make things that simple but in the long run all they're doing is intentionally misinforming themselves to justify their emotions.

i get that. it was a binary choice between two suboptimal candidates. i don't think everyone who voted for trump is racist.

but if you're still supporting homie in 2018, you are sus as fuck. i don't blame that guy for feeling tense

[Propagandhim]

I'm not nervous because they're Trump supporters specifically, but because areas where you see Trump stuff/Gadsden Flags/Confederate flags tend to be full of trash people with guns and drug problems looking to fight because they're miserable. The Trump stuff is a symptom, not the cause. You'll notice all the vehicles/houses/yards tend to be significantly more trashy than areas around them.

I've lived in NYC, NJ, and Massachusetts (well, and 4 months in Chicago) my whole life and have never  visited south of Virginia, so I have no idea.  I can imagine how bad it could be, though.    I'm just speaking about the Republican areas in this community.

Yeah, I should have clarified: 'of all voters'.  I assume the people that didn't have strong enough political convictions to vote, or kids, aren't making him uncomfortable.

[MangoMadness]

Only 55% of Americans eligible to vote actually voted in 2016.  Chances are the average person you pass by didn't vote for anyone.  I guess some areas are more political than others though.

I live in California, in an upper-middle-class Bay Area suburb.  Know a lot of Sanders voters, myself included, but not a lot of REEEEEE people.  That seems to be more of a Hilary supporter thing, though I've never met one in real life.  Performative wokeness, y'all: support a woman who's basically Republican-lite because IT'S HER TURN.

I'm privileged fo sho (despite being brown-skinned and a literal one who incoherently screeches), but I do gotta admit I think of moving to SF or Oakland or NYC sometimes just because the suburbs are so bland and boring.  Only thing is I'm kinda worried about being lorded over by people who act like ReeeeeesetEra does.

Quiet's outfit was ridiculous, but what strikes me is the whole 'she deserves better' bit as if she is a real person that has been treated poorly. It's basically like this weird make-believe world where she draws dresses kind of like she is dressing up a doll, and injecting her own personality on to her.

I quite like the idea of making a whole imaginary world for Quiet as if she is a real person with feelings and everything.

I've got news for you: Quiet helped to destroy three marriages by seducing the men in those relationships. One marriage she destroyed was her sister's marriage. So, no, she doesn't deserve better. Quiet is a horrible vindictive bitch.

[bork]

Believe it or not, I am just now starting the game. This is the one thing about the game I have not been able to stay blind on, but that's all right. I'm excited to get there and see it for myself.

Same. Apparently you can just not recruit Quiet, so that's my plan.

It's funny; Metal Gear Solid has generally had at least one 'sexy' character in each game but I don't recall there being any backlash before V.  Guess it was the rise of SJW.  Was there the same kind of outrage over the Beauty And The Beast unit in MGS4 on neogoof?  Can't remember.

The B&B unit was so much worse than Quiet. The fucking info dumps after every boss fight that were basically copy and pasted every time.

Somehow that wasn't even the worst part of that game. The fucking showdown with Meryl and the guy who poops his pants and the wedding that followed. And that fucking hospital scene.

MGS 4 is trash

[Raist]

Ladies and gents, let me introduce you to ResetERA moderator Nepenthe.

You're dodging the question quite deftly by framing this as being about babies.

The lyrics don't target all babies. Just white ones. The lyrics are also sung by a black man.

Now why, in right-wing resurgence 2018, Nazis marching in the streets 2018, online interconnectivity 2018, would a black man make pointed rhetoric towards specifically white people?

It's just a mystery, I guess.

[NegativeCrepe]

Send that to everyone who has ads on that fucking site, literally saying it's fine to slaughter babies as long as they are white. What a cunt

I mean, that is the whole problem with the B&B unit: They were not even an attempt to make them characters or even be memorable outside “They are based on super models”.

But, to be fair, the last memorable Metal Gear bosses (outside of Rising) were the Cobra Unit. Everything after that has been abysmal.

[BisMarckie]

I don't like 3 that much. The healing mechanics are super annoying, the cobra unit is incredibly dumb and the game engine wasn't a good fit for these open environments.

MGS > MGS 2 > MGS V > MGS 3 >>>>>> MGS 4

The first Metal Gear is grade a bullshit though, fumbling around with the key cards is just incredibly annoying. MG 2 though

Quiet is legit ridiculous in the dumbest ways, breh. There's no real defending it. He could have just pulled a Yoko and said "I like ass" which would have been fine but noooooooo mentally challenged wunderkind had to pretend it was all part of his all knowing genius 

It works in Yoko Taro because he always backs out when he starts to sound hyper serious. The guy that can talk about violence on video games in a serious way while using a literal suck puppet. I don’t exactly blame Kojima pretentious answer.

I think the only real developers that have accepted the “I like tits and boobs” without repercussions are Yoko Taro and the Senran Kaguya producer.

I honestly I also would prefer the “I like ass” answer, but...

Peace Walker is awesome. 5 is awesome too. I never got to play 4 but it didn't look like there was much playing to do anyway.

4 was actually pretty good. V is awesome gameplay wise, it's a shame the game feels totally rushed in the ending part. I feel the game was meant to be 30-40% longer than it is.

[BisMarckie]

Kojima even fucked up the return to Shadow Moses with these stupid robots.
To be fair though, the Rex vs. Ray fight was pretty rad.

[Uncle]

But, to be fair, the last memorable Metal Gear bosses (outside of Rising) were the Cobra Unit. Everything after that has been abysmal.

I guess they were memorable but the cobra unit was shit, they came out of nowhere with zero back story except what gets infodumped on the codec

Nothing compared to MGS1 actually having conversations with each of them

You just get a guy who shows up screaming about how he loves bees and then he explodes

And the guy with the long tongue who I forgot about until just now

MGS4 made it undeniable that Kojima is a hack in the writing department, but I have a real fondness for it now.  It was one of the last AAA videogames where the story was entertainingly dumb (not to mention fucking bonkers).  Now even Uncharted and God of War are trying to be Oscar-level dramas. 

Crossing my fingers for some bonkers shit in Death Stranding.  Hopefully some detailed characters too.  Honestly though I kinda wish Kojima would just move on to writing-directing movies or TV.  He's a great game designer but that's not really why I come to his games.  The MGS V trailers were better than MGS V, and I liked that game a ton.  Plus if you read his Twitter it's blatantly obvious he's way more into movies than games.

I've got news for you: Quiet helped to destroy three marriages by seducing the men in those relationships. One marriage she destroyed was her sister's marriage. So, no, she doesn't deserve better. Quiet is a horrible vindictive bitch.

[Nintex]

I always liked how Kojima retconned his own stories and then made them even dumber.

Like Ocelot's arm. At first it is implied that Liquid (being a super soldier clone and all that) took over Ocelot through that arm.
Then at the end of MGS4 he reveals 'psyche!' it was actually just hypnosis on himself  and Ocelot pretending to be Liquid. 

[Shuri]

I picked up Metal Gear Ghost Babel on the gbc the other day and it's pretty damn cool. It's MGS without the bullshit.
