Who said I was surprised?

I was just posting it here so you could all blame me as always.

Not sure how I am doing it to myself considering I'm just voicing my opinion and not really offending anyone.

Like that last time when I got banned for being a women hater (LOL). The mods there are just clueless and live in their own little US based bubble and have no consideration that someone from Europe might laugh at their ( US ) ridiculous stories regarding racism, while also condemnding other cultures. It just smells of distinguished mentally-challenged political correct ballfondling.

That Waypoint guy sounds like a pompous ass who takes games way too serious but I see nothing wrong with the root of what he's saying;  he has an open mind to being convinced of something at a later date, as he was when it came to Bioshock Infinite.

It really just doesn't need to be said though; if he at a later date realizes the obvious truth that God of War is problematic then say so at a later date.
well duh, but only in gamez journalism does anyone feel the need to actually state a normal human thought pattern out loud.

I was saying that Apu isnt even that bad and that US based folks have more important racial issues to focus on

You have been banned for the following reason: You don't get to dictate what people should care about, especially when it comes to small issues that could be partly responsible for bigger issues. Your ban will be lifted on Jun 1, 2018.

Ahh yes me voicing my opinion is the same as dictating.

SURE JAN.GIF


The mods there are fucking distinguished mentally-challenged
Yet you go back to that place over and over and over and over and over again.

I go there to browse, just like I browse here. I have zero interaction with the mods except when I get banned for saying something someone doesnt like ( or for PM'ing a user, which was seen as hostile  ??? ).

I read about vidyagames I like, and sometimes post in a few topics as I do here.

Sometimes out of boredom I venture into offtopic. Political or racial based discussions seem to get me banned more than anything, so I shpuld probably not partake in those discussions.

But I just hate hate hate! it when people are just making sense, and REEEEE users start throwing a fit and raging on and on about nonsensical shit.

So yes I will go back to that dumbass forum. There are a few communities that dont heavily have morons posting about it. Like the PUBG community thread. Nice people and no bullshit about race or politics.

Still personally in regards to the simpsons I dont feel like there is anything wrong with Apu.

Honestly though? Reeeee moderation is worse than it was on Neogaf. So liberal, so politically correct. And so hypocritical.

Call someone a dumbass? Catch a ban

Call someone a coon and/or nicca but you are an active BCT poster? Ahh no worries brehs.

Is not that Patrick is wrong, he actually has all the right in the world to change his opinion about stuff over time. Is that Patrick is member of the most “woke” video game website and just admited that his convictions can be changed (or supported if he chickens out initially )  if the clique demands it with that Bioshock example. Is a very subtle confirmation that he seeks validation over be truthfully comfortable about his think pieces.

People taking the time in the TB is dying thread to do the whole "fuck cancer, BUT..." shtick is not surprising. The need to virtue signal in a thread about a gaming personality with terminal cancer is fucking telling. These distinguished mentally-challenged fellows will be getting triggered over GG until they are in nursing homes wearing diapers.

Ehh.. just one way to read into that.  Another way to read into it is he can be convinced by these people.  You are assuming he's only changing his mind because other people said things and he wants to fit in;  which is entirely possible, but that's not what he wrote (from what I can garner reading the benjicogniscenti quotes)

The people that convinced him were people like Leigh Alexander or his current boss, Austin Walker.

I want to be upfront and say I'm a bit conflicted with TB. He done great work bring up problems with devs, publishers, and consumer rights. However, he promoted hate on journalist for the wrong reasons, made the whole bad cuphead gameplay worse, and doesn't dig deeper into games from story and context (Ignores the problems with Far cry 5's story and poor representation of race and women). Still cancer sucks and it sucks that he unable to get the right treatment to take control of it. I wish him luck.

Dude, at lot of us had followed Patrick since his GB days. I don’t think he is untruthful but he does NOT have spine.

And people here have commented that him or Austin are not exactly saints, or at least not by “woke journos” standards.

Wow, they're really doing drive-by posts that are entirely dismissive of the concerns of cancer? They probably don't see the bigotry in saying things like "mutated" cells or ranking cancers into stages based purely on physical characteristics. Even still in 2018.

I really played myself posting a Waypoint article when I've hit the max number of people I'm allowed to have on my ignore list. Fun fact, it's 1000.

There are definitely more than 1000 people on Era who are performatively dismissive of social commentary or any kind of academic criticism of games. I'm not here to engage with those people, so it would be nice to be able to ignore them all.

Any high school literature teacher, especially one who is a professor at a high school level which is pretty impressive and way below their education, would have probably taught about Death of the Author really early on.

And any competent teacher would have mentioned the context of the guy that argued about Death of the Author and how criticism is more complicated than “progress”.

Death of the Author is not all catch term to ignore context, even TVTropes grow up of that.

EDIT: I see you edited your post to say you're not attacking me, so I'll just say that as good as this community is, there is STILL an inexhaustible supply of racists, sexists, concern trolls, and the willfully ignorant, and leave it at that. I don't feel obligated to be exposed to all that crap.

I suppose SweetNicole is waiting for the right moment to close.

Is fucking weird reading about people that want a intelectual discussion of video games but are unable to grasp why people will find out that someone says that “I self reflect about my opinions, but I should mention that I will chicken out first and wait for other to validate me...” as if was a intellectual think piece.

Is it anti-intellectualism? Maybe Patrick would be better to embrace being wrong or correcting himself sometimes rather than hedging his arguments so much in advance.

This is legit

An opinion of a game is more than how the gameplay is. Themes and story and the like is just as important as the gameplay in what impacts a person and what makes something appeal to them

It usually takes time to process how you really feel about something. Yeah, your first time is your genuine reaction but your also not thinking critically to evaluate. Your kind of just living the moment. This is why people are constantly skeptical of festival showings of movies or any early premier of a DC movie cuz your caught up in the hype and the surprise that it sometimes blinds you. It doesn't have to change your overall opinion on something. I still like Infinite. I also don't love it as much as I did when I first played it, but I still like it. The "wow" factor isn't their anymore and what I'm left with is a story that kind of sucks and a setting with lost potential. I consider that to be my final thoughts on the game years later.

Or Star Wars films

Or Marvel films

Or Sony first Party games

Or Nintendo games

Or Kanye songs

Or political elections

Or...

Gameplay is never what solely defines a game. Especially not on a scale like God of War which, by the creator's own admitted ambition, wanted to touch on fatherhood, masculinity, and more.

more badass can barely digest the intent of pablum film entertainment like A Quiet Place, so him commenting on games criticism is... perfect.

Are there any game reviewers who only watch "Let's Plays" for reviews?

There is something beautiful about someone in so much denial about the world that they think blocking 1,000 people is a proud accomplishment worth sharing.

I'm painting a mental picture of a person who blocks 1,000 people on a video game forum then condescendingly brags about it.

seems like there should be a simple function to forward the list to a mod captain who can action them and then he could delete their entries and work to accumulate another 1000
