a thread that comes with a definition of "sealioning"? I'm reeling.

I love how sealioning took the exact opposite meaning of that comic.

[stufte]

Accusing someone of sealioning has basically become a way for people to claim extraordinary things and absolve themselves of having to explain their position, then make the person asking for clarification the bad guy. It's extra funny because in the comic it is derived from people talk shit about the sealion without giving a reason, then act indignant when he wants an explanation.

Captain Marvel. This thread is a joke. Wonder Woman is a mediocre movie and the No Man’s Land scene is absurdly overrated. Wonder Woman also completely falls apart in the third act, which is just awful.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/wonder-woman-and-captain-marvel-which-of-these-origins-introduced-their-female-heroes-better-on-screen.107002/post-19115313

How does Wonder Woman have better world building? Every representation of WW1 geopolitics in Wonder Woman was stupid. And the Germans are made into generic baddies with no mention of the actual, real life atrocities they committed on the Belgians (and how British propaganda may or may not have inflated them past reality).

Era thought AOC was the second coming of Christ because she was on a Twitch stream.

Within a few months of being in Washington, she has been shown to be inept at best and corrupt at worst.  But hey man how about that tweet!

These people should not be allowed to vote.

Citation needed. When has Ocasio-Cortez shown to be inept or corrupt? Every time I saw her in a hearing, she was the one asking the most hard-hitting and succinct questions that for some reason nobody else asked. She seems smarter than the vast majority of congress.

There's a right wing conspiracy theory that she committed some big campaign finance fraud or some shit. And that she hired her boyfriend to her campaign or some other shit.

Movies and TV have taught me that if you're not fucking your campaign manager you're doing politics wrong

Cameron gave nerds a scifi with an alien moon where 9ft tall cat people can psionically link to dragons, before flying them through floating mountains to fight gunships and mechs. The nerds - along with the rest of mainstream audiences, all went to see it multiple times.

Then it became the highest grossing film of all time and a symbol of mainstream culture, and nerds no longer wanted to be associated with it. Titanic, having been dethroned, then was welcomed with newfound appreciation after 12 years of being shat on by nerds for the same reason.

Internet dudes don't want to be lumped in with mainstream audiences.

First response.

The only way I see to get around the fact that a shitload of good games are being released these days is to work toward a more dignified society where individual developers no longer need their game to win the viral roulette in order to be able to afford health care and a roof over their head. 🤷
 

That's not even a solution. Making cash isn't the only reason why you'd want your work to be successful and reach as many people as possible

You aren't entitled to stream a game nor should they have to cater to people who think they do, though. You can do your research about the game, no need for a disclaimer for .0001% of people who have this concern.

It seems only when it comes to Epic Game Store is trickle down economics a viable discussion point on Era. Any other topic and it's rightfully laughed out of the room.

It would be fucking hilarious that people are parroting these talking points if it wasn't sad and concerning.

Lol Fuck off.

What a lying piece of shit. Why I should believe anything that come from your mouth Tim after all the BS your company pulled. Also I guess, gamers from non-western regions can go fuck themselves with some of your store's bs policies but hey "it's good for the industry!"

Well at least sweetnicole lets people speak freely about EGS (for now). imagine if you swapped out Tim for e.g. Jason Schreier. Immediate ban for villifying game journos. hey, it would be a shame if people started reporting these posts and they got actioned...

They're most likely talking about aluminium in a different form. I can't imagine drinking from a coke can releasing a lot of aluminium. The processed foods inside are probably worse for you.

Fuck all of that, imagine dropping 40% of your income because of a joke, if I had to drop every client that made an off-color joke or was otherwise distasteful I'd... well I'd be fired because I don't work independently but you get the idea.

I appreciate dude take a principled stand but I gotta think about me and mine in that kind of situation... unless they made a racist joke then I'd have to say something.

no I would definitely remembered and probably even went back to start a conversation with why he said it. I think they where asking if i was ok something along the lines of: are you feeling unwell i think, i honestly dont remember it.

As it is, the people who were dropped probably just think Redfirm is a crazy unreliable person who wasted their time. Also, refunding the current project money is definitely NOT a way to protect yourself from a lawsuit because damages of a broken contract like this may not just be monetary.

[Jansen]

They’ll know who I am once I post this here so I’ll update you guys if they ban me from the server for sharing this exchange:

This exchange occurred in the Official CDPR CyberPunk 2077 Discord. Some of you may think it’s whatever but I thought the way this topic slid by was disappointing. Does every dev need to make comments on their stances? No - But once asked directly? Should they be willing to take a stance? I think so.

Apolitical stances are a defense of the status quo and they’re far more tiring than the small effort to be progressive.

Let’s talk CD Projekt history-

We know they issued no apology and fired the guy who did the GoG transphobic joke, and it went down allegedly like this (https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-12-05-troubling-gog-tweets-a-fired-cd-projekt-employee-and-the-spectre-of-gamergate):


That wasn’t the only bad tweet from GoG - they also tweeted a GamerGate supporting meme.

And do recall, CyberPunk 2077’s account tweeted a joke about trans issues as well - and we have no idea what the consequence was for them to correct it internally so that person may still be on the team unless we know otherwise for that account now (https://kotaku.com/cyberpunk-2077-tweets-transphobic-joke-studio-apologiz-1828502562):


Maybe we got off on the wrong foot 3 times, CD Projekt.

But then we get some 2018 CyberPunk 2077 info and there’s troubling screenshots and depictions of minorities. They’re from a womanizing street gang, they’re a criminal technician in your ear, they’re stereotypical convenience store owners and taxi drivers.

This screenshot has come up many times as stereotypical:

So the discussion arises in their discord:

Anyway, first the comment posted there - then the dev response is in red, and the mods are the blue user and the purple user.

Gotta start shit for outrage!!!!!

I will always bring this up in any and all CDPR threads. This is a company wide culture at this point.
