Ree's problem with their true life tales is they either go too far into their fantasy boyfriend scenario. Or include details about things they wouldn't know about.

Steve was a white supremacist who loved WhiteSnake but was crippled by self doubt and a growing certainty that his chances of becoming a ballerina were slowly slipping away

Morrigan in hot waters because the line of what's "boy's club" rhetoric and what isn't is of course entirely made up

Quote from: Morrigan
He really didn't. He made a playful comment that people got entirely bent out of shape about for absolutely no reason.

Ok. I need an explanation.

Why is "let her fuck" considered "a playful comment" and me and other people who are clearly weirded out by someone saying "she needs to get it on, and she needs to fuck" are bent out of shape for no reason.

Because while he's made his intention clear that he wants more games to have options for female characters to pursue relationships and have romances because they are very rare in games (which is something I agree with and support), with zero context why is what was said not weird.

Because this weekend has been filled with some awful and bad takes regarding Aloy.

Am I being a prude?

Let alone that simply "feeling" offended has been historically considered enough to ban people

Best looking game I've seen. Too bad they've botched Aloy's design. She looks like a Walmart mom now, and her head is humongous.

All I see with those delayed movements and animation transitions is that the game is probably a slog to control.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider hit the right balance I think between having more 'realistic' animations if you will and snappy controls.
This looks like Red Dead Redemption II all over again. Overly cinematic movements.

Oh well the fans can enoy another walking sim.

I know when I play a game where I can kill people with a weapon that shoots CD's whilst the macarena plays, I think 'political'.

Reee's obsession with this topic for nearly every game that has a hint of real world elements is tiring but expected of these weirdos.

Even more hilarious is the devs engaging with the 'woke' twitter hordes and getting browbeaten into submissions and gotcha game 'journalism'

1) Horizon controls perfectly, i don't like the game, but that's one area (the combat) that really works well, it's very responsive. This looks almost identical.

2) Tomb Raider's animations look very bad, they snap constantly with no transition, and it doesn't control any better than your average Uncharted or Control etc, that are much better animated.

3) RDR2 was more problematic, though i think it's a valid, deliberate choice, to prioritize other aspects over perfect responsiveness, and you should know, since you're familiar with Tac. Shooter, they can deliberately slow things down to give weight to actions.
The real issue with RDR2 was the shoddy dead zone/aiming sensitivity (at least on analog sticks).

It really is a weird question. Why ask the author of the game is political? You either see it or you don't. Not to mention that they all have their own definitions of what political means. Are there also journalists who go to Christopher Nolan and ask him if Tenet is political?

their internal studies have shown that publicizing the statement that they said the game is political will increase sales of the game with certain demographics by anywhere from 0.4 to 0.7%, not insignificant when you're selling millions

so

- no damseling, women can't be weak
- women cannot be objectified/sexy costumes (even if they are strong-willed and do it to own it)
- but also you can't throw up your hands and give up like FFXV, you HAVE to include women and represent them precisely right
- but also you can't pretend to be progressive about women's issues so whatever you do it can't appear to be shallow/lip service

has anyone ever created any art or entertainment of any kind that meets these requirements?


I guess a game with a character creator, with a silent protagonist, first person view so you can't see your own possibly sexy costume, and a story short enough that no men and women ever interact long enough for something untoward to happen?

Probably you can find some Pixel Art Indie "Jrpg" made in Portland/SanfFran/LA, that fits this criteria, and is also very "ironic" and "wholesome".

Actually no in the latest usual video from Sterling, https://www.resetera.com/threads/ea-is-evil-actually-the-jimquisition.434159/post-66161765 is the post that got him a ban.

"EA is Evil," Says Increasingly Derivative Content Creator for Seventh Time This Year

But that's the mod's covering themselves. In truth, https://www.resetera.com/threads/ea-is-evil-actually-the-jimquisition.434159/post-66178844 is likely the post that caught him the ban.

Quote
not sure where we can find any ground when you assume i'm a bigot for not liking this content creator's voice in the industry because of their long history of cynical pandering and toxic voice in gaming discourse, a foundation laid long before they came out as trans. i am happy for them that they likely have more self-confidence and a surer sense of their identity in the world.

if you can't separate these things out i don't know what to tell you.

It the most typical Sterling video there is, obviously they're starved for content, but now that they're trans it's transphobic to complain about that

Attention seeking?

This is such a tone deaf and terrible thing to say after how James Stephanie did a video explaining the nasty ramifications of coming out as NB Trans, how it actively made it so they reach less ears and people.

Doesn’t matter how you meant it, but to claim James Stephanie is attention seeking with their content in the last year or so is nothing short of offensive

Yeah, that's what led me to finally unsub.  Just got tired of it.  The Era thread just kind of became "U HATE JIM BECAUSE JIM IS TRANS NOW" even though nobody is talking about that and it's all about Jim's content.  This part of a larger post basically went ignored:

Quote from: nintendoman58
With all that being said however, and it really pains me to say this about a content creator I’ve enjoyed for about a decade, but I feel that the Jimquisition has become...toxic. It doesn’t matter how right they are about what they say. If I’m constantly feeling miserable watching their content, even if I agree with them on what they say, then I can’t in good faith recommend their videos. I‘m not saying this to attack James or that talking about what they talk about is wrong...but I don‘t really know how else to describe my experience watching their content lately is.

I don’t know how else to describe something that isn’t healthy.

Although "constantly feeling miserable watching their content" seems like it would be perfect for your typical ResetEra poster.

Quote from: Veezy
I seriously disagree. Look, admittedly, I like the content that JSS puts out. I'm not a patreon subscriber and I don't have any social media accounts to follow them in that avenue, but I do regularly listen to the podcast and watch the videos. However, I'm am a little annoyed that whenever a Sterling thread comes up, multiple people shit on the video, without watching it, and refuse to even discuss it.

Wonder why that is?

Quote
Yeah -- their videos for years have been about making money by trashing big developers and small developers alike. The "pro consumer" angle isnt anticapitalist -- pro worker is anticapitalist.

Edit: to expand on this -- they popularized "moneyhatting" as a term and screaming at small devs who decided to take a payout from a big rich company to keep their doors open rather than making that money off of end-users. You literally can't win if you're making and selling games, if you do the most ethical thing possible some youtuber will show up to make money off of helping gamer culture become evevn worse.​

This. I feel like you could insert almost any company into that headline and this content creator will have made a video about them.

It's quite telling who in this thread haven't seen video.
Do we even need to? It’s Jim’s schtick, and EA’s one of their favorite targets.

Quote
Personally this is so old hat.

Loot boxes/gambling tactics are only ever upsetting when it’s an EA or Activision doing them.
Era members will pretend to get up in arms about how awful it is, and then two weeks later we’ll have a thread on the billions some mobile Gatcha games made. Suddenly nobody will care that players are being taken advantage of, and instead they’ll marvel at all the money they raked in.

Quote
Quote
And it'll still make valid points almost every time and be right about it
Yet there comes a point when you've seen and heard the same message so many times that it just doesn't have an impact anymore. Their videos are the same every single week.

Quote
Yeah, in all seriousness, and with no offense to James whatsoever, I don’t think their content is particularly healthy to watch anymore.

yes



you can see gradual reduced subscriber gainz for ages, and then last october was the first loss

jim's first "out" video was at the end of january


the other thing is that jim changed everything about the show almost all at once, logo change, lost the podium, editor/editing style changed, new weird clips being inserted, even though the content of bitching about video games stayed the same the tone has shifted

even if it's reasonable to claim that coming out is a big factor in the losses, there's a buffet of so many reasons that it doesn't seem right to say it's the only possible reason

Jim's recipe for a successful YT channel

People like your game reviews - Stop doing game reviews.
People like commentocracy - Stop doing commentocracy.
People like your gameplay vids - reduce gameplay vids to 1 every 4 months


People stop watching - Call them hateful transphobes and blame them for your declining YT career

I never really -enjoyed- the kind of YouTube video Jim makes, because it's always been very... theatrical and insincere. More about the trappings around the character of Jim Sterling and less about whatever bad thing he wanted to make an overly long video about. Like Jon Oliver but unfunny(ier?) and about the same thing over and over.

I assume that aesthetic has been amplified since Jim doesn't know how to do anything else and assumes their audience wants more and more of the only thing they know how to do.

At least Hbomberguy makes videos about stuff he likes.

I feel the same way about jim that I do any media complainer, like the angry video game nerd or nostalgia critic or even redlettermedia:

I will listen to your complaints and insights, that's the interesting part and the fun part

I don't care about your five minute skit where you have a war with bugs bunny in your basement and poop on each other

I know you actually want to create drama/short films, but that's not why I watch you, and when the balance tips I'm just not interested anymore

Philosophy Tube is the closest I get to watching these personalities and being excited to see the nonsense surrounding the topic. Loved the concept and execution of "Data", even if the information was a bit shallow.

Why does it always have to be about race? I am the least racist person you will ever meet. I don't connect music genres to race.

disliking hip hop does not make you racist
Enjoy your perma, fucko.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/im-so-tired-of-reveal-trailers-using-hip-hop-as-bgm.434495/post-66208481

I can't stand country music, does that make me racist against white people? ???

But more on topic, I see so many people laughing at the "hip-hop is the new dubstep" comment and not picking up on what he meant... Like in the 2010s so many game trailers were cut to dubstep to the point of overuse, and he feels that hip-hop is being overused nowadays, not necessarily in games where it fits... not comparing the actual music and their origin points, or their relative popularity.

Jim is right about lootboxes but if i'm being honest I find it hard to empathize with people who play sports games.

The cancel culture people forget that there's more people that don't want shit cancelled then there's people that want shit cancelled.
And if those people would band together and close ranks like the woke crybabies do there is nothing they can do to stop them from keeping things as they are.

Just look at how we protected Amouranth's rights :trumps

lol at the OP's ban message:

User Banned (Duration Pending): Microaggressions towards the Black community, abuse of the report system

Quote from: justiceiro

Since we are just around tons of announcement, i just wanted to get this out. Hip hop is the new dubstep.

Seems like AAA competitive shooting game these days use hip hop in it's reveal trailers. I already doesn't respect games that don't do OST, but most of the times is just a ultra generic song being played that rarely even show up during actual gameplay.

So, please, tone it down in the next few weeks. Thx, bye.

Their only other post in the thread:
Quote from: justiceiro
Quote from: ilikefeet
nah
This exactly my point. I hate this.

Since the ban message doesn't cite a specific post... did they report people in the thread for, say, dropping a hard R, then get banned for the microaggression that was the report?

Hip hop is shit and so is dub step.

Ban me for my microaggressions!!!!


Edit: If hip hop is the most popular music in the US, then logically the majority of the audience is white. So essentially it is music for white people. How can saying that you don't like it be a microaggressions against black people?

Banning someone for something that has "micro" in its name is pretty funny

I think he means more in how it is overused than that they're the same quality
