And that's also why they had a truck load more fun with a Borderlands (especially 2 and PreSequel) than with say DOOM 2016 ...
Because co-op means socializing and fun times together ... (also the revive mechanic combined with a cel shaded outlook makes the mere fact of reviving a mate an awesome moment for them )

Hell I can't count the times I had way more fun with ladies on Borderlands , than being stuck with dude friends on any other generic shootbang ...

But that's what I was trying to elude to , you don't need to have the game to be "typically feminine" to be enjoyed by ladies just design in such a way that your game doesn't end up being a toxic sludge factory ...

Hell why does Armello makes them ladies happy ? Because no ingame voice chat , pre written chat lines pronounced by your chosen hero that are in character , leading to some mild roleplaying being doable on the board . Boom bob's your uncle ladies are havin a blast ...

he mentioned it!!!

Imagine being an artist on that game and stumbling on those posts.

What's it like, Stufte?

Btw, i never really understood this concept of judging someone? How does it work exactly, or rather how do people feel judging someone else? Superior?

Any perceived judgement is accidental, they are clearly operating on a higher social frequency than us

ah fuck top of the page uhh, someone ask Antia how many heads high she is so we can figure out if she's an adolescent

Bernie isn't as savvy as AOC. I don't see him surviving so cleanly, and despite that the level of shit they've thrown at her is terrifying from a security and mental health viewpoint.

Watching them try to spin it as though Cortez is against Bernie is pretty weird.

"Savvy" seems like code for photogenic

The sole independent senator for decades, isn't as savvy as AOC who came out of said senator's movement.

It's hilarious because one of the things Bernie said, is that even if one person comes out of the push of the "our revolution",  that's enough.

Reminds me of when I got a month ban in 2007 for "trolling Sony” by saying PGR4 looked about as good as whatever Gran Turismo title was coming out around then.

I owned a PS3 at the time. It was bizarre.

It was the only time* other than the perm that he was banned.

Is it? I mean, i get liking or disliking something, or saying this is not me, not my taste or whatever, but judging i don't really get. So that's why i'm trying to understand why some people really enjoy judging, it must give them something, doesn't it?

Thing is that this is a pro FE documentary. This doesn't rip them, yeah normal, same people may think that because FE and thier arguments and stunts are stupid and laughable. But this is a pro FE device and really should never have been given a platform IMO.

I thought it was a documentary poking fun, but soon realized it wasn't and shut it off.

Kamalas answer is a lot more nuanced than Bernie’s quick dismissal he gave when asked. That’s the point, Bernie isn’t even pretending to be interested in considering it.

Saying you will consider it or study it is way better than just saying no.

Simple problem: I need a new dishwasher.
So I spend hours on reading reviews and test online.
I compare prices, functionality, everything. I narrow it down to the one.

4.3 stars or whatever on amazon. Sounds good.
I use reviewmeta and let it filter out fake reviews. Still Ok.

But then I begin to read the reviews. And I go straight for the one-star ratings. Why? All my hope in the product is gone now.
After being trapped in the same loop 5 times I just bought a machine, without reading reviews.
It felt liberating.

thx shitman

i remember my first ban from that time as well, i got slapped with 3 months when i suggested a woody allen appreciation thread would be short (because his movies sucks ass), and i missed that the op of that thread was dragona

and i'm pretty sure that the thread barely got past the first page.

You know what else happened with Black Panther and Wonder Woman? Anyone with honert criticism got lumped in with the trolls and it ruined any critical discourse.

Maybe what you thought was “honest criticism” wasn’t if you were being honest with yourself and that’s why you felt lumped in with trolls?

If you identify with the trolls so easily, maybe that’s a personal issue you can work on improving?

I’m really not sure why anyone is upset trolls are getting dunked on when they hijacked the conversation in the first place. If people could have enjoyed the marketing of these films without that bullshit, we wouldn’t be here

I judge people to see if they are safe or worth being around. considering most people with face tattoos are most likely gang members or crazy. Its nice to judge.

Apparently accurately saying that Black Panther had some bad VFX (and won a sympathy BAFTA for best visual effects, LOLOL) is just an alt-right troll dog whistle.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

I'm basically the living embodiment of these alt-right gamergater comic book nerds. I'm a gay dude who hasn't seen any MCU movies (except for GotG) and primarily saw this because of the female lead and women-backed crew. And I had a really wonderful time watching this! Might go see it again just to really drive home the point.

[HaughtyFrank]

Omg

Because most of the criticism aren't very honest like sweeping statements that are just wrong on their face like "bad action" and "bad cgi"

point out BAFTA has specific rules that films/shows can only be nominated if they meant diversity/inclusion quotas.

If you give it an award at least hand it out for something the movie did good. It wasn't a bad movie at all but the visual effects were the weakest part along with Martin Freeman. Who was in the movie only to demonstrate the superiority of the Wakandan Ubermenschen.

[10centtacos]

Game was down to 272 concurrent players today. This might be the biggest fiasco of all time.

I think that's a tad hyperbolic to say. I mean in the same industry where a company hosted an AMA on a haven of pedophilia, games are bricking consoles, etc., a formerly-beloved company's game flopping massively seems like just a drop in the bucket compared to some of the stuff out there.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/kotaku-valves-card-game-artifact-is-running-out-of-players.93956/page-17

Yes, the THQNordic 10chan AMA that Era obsessed about for a week is a bigger fiasco than Valve's disaster of a game.

Also you forgot to mention Goobergate.

Donald is likely parroting something he heard on one of shit TV shows, there was no rational thought nor logic involved in his conclusions. So I don't give a fuck if he is right, I hope it never happens so just to spite him. He is such a shit-brained dolt he wouldn't care either way, he can't help himself and needs to twit and be a twit and then tweets, it's his inane compulsion of stupidity.

AWARD WINNING.

[stufte]

Infinity War had almost double the budget, but most of that probably went to RDJ. They had almost the same VFX studios work on both movies and both were out within months of one another.

Yet IW looks a decade apart. Black Panther's CG is Let the Right One in Cats level bad. They really didn't give a fuck.

and to be fair, IW had that wonky ass Bruce Banner composite late in the movie, but at least it was in the background. 

[Joe Molotov]

Let's be real though, people that pay to see Marvel movies don't deserve good things.

[stufte]

MOST of the CGI in Black Panther looked good, but what was bad was laughably terrible and looked like a PS2 cinematic.

Agreed, but bad cgi can take you right out of a movie and break immersion. Reminded me of the Rock cgi from the Scorpion King.

"Savvy" seems like code for photogenic

The only two possible explanations I see for the ERA "Moderates" tripping over themselves to put her on a pedestal :
- Not letting "Leftists" claim a monopoly on this hot, new, fresh, super popular figure.
- Gambling on this very young politician moving towards center soon enough for the sake of her career and / or because of her actual upcoming experience and then retroactively painting everything until now with their brush.

Or so I suppose ? I'm no AOC expert but everything seems to point out she's closer to Sanders. She may move to the center as she ages but it's not going to happen before the primary (which is basically all that matters now, relative to the forum) and it seems the most sensible would be for her to endorse Sanders provided he's still in the running.

They're setting up for possibly eating a lot of crow by going full cult of personality.
Hopefully it happens because it would be

The CGI in Spider Man Homecoming was pretty pathetic as well. Isn't it just a case of Marvel not giving a shit about CG effects? Why waste money when the movies are aimed at manchildren who would go see it regardless?

Black Panther's budget was freaking 200 million, Homecoming was 175 million, though I think you're right that Marvel doesn't care that much for the quality of the CG, instead the money is being pumped into the CG studios to get those shots done fast.

Well it's Era : he was always a full blown racist, "problematic" is just the temporary status you get until you can prove it.
