Those of us from rural south know how to handle toilet paper shortage. Eat more corn on the cob! The corn isn't important, but the cobs are free and work great! (Just don't flush them!) You're welcome!

Nice try tho.oh, i was late to catch your edit. fuck kylo ren. this is not about that. I have my views as a survivor and you have yours, I don't care about the input of non-survivors on this matter and I dropped it when you said you are one. You didn't show the same courtesy, you got ugly and antagonistic instead. I hope you find a healthier way of dealing with your experiences than lashing out and silencing tactics. Good luck to you.

yep, thats why people are mocking tlou. its just TOO PROGRESSIVE
I’d love to see a prominent game dev write a detailed op-ed basically break down the aforementioned points and what is systematically wrong about the hate that the gaming community breeds.Not that Naughty Dog needs someone to take a bullet for them, but to at least show some solidarity between game developers.
QuoteSo I have been avoiding anything involving spoilers with the game since the leaks were announced. I was unaware there was backlash from the story leaks. But from what I'm hearing in this thread, the only ones mad are whiny homophobic incel assholes whose opinions I really shouldn't care about, right?Right.

As for naughty dogs, I hope they find pride in The fact that they riled up the right. It means their game is stretching the medium in the right direction. I hope they wear it like a badge of honor.

After Battlefield V, nothing scares me, worries me nor surprises me anymore. For the last part, all the time. People will end up disliking many decisions you make for a game, and that's fine. There are many complexities involved in making a game, running a service and managing a studio, that an outsider couldn't possibly understand.
Battlefield V did not finish in the top 10 best-selling games of 2018 in the U.S., according to tracking firm The NPD Group. Instead, the World War II shooter ended up at No. 14. That puts it behind Grand Theft Auto V (11), Mario Kart 8 (12), and FIFA 19 (13).That makes Battlefield V the first Battlefield game this decade not to crack the NPD’s annual top 10 list. And it means that the game performed closer to Battlefield: Hardline and Bad Company 2 than Battlefield 1, relative to the rest of the software market.

there's a lot of that about everything though
This can't be the first time something about gender roles has come up in your relationship if she thinks that way.
Took the words right out of the mouth. There is not a chance the OP didn’t know his wife held these views
That's really horrifying to see in this day and age. I'm sorry.

Having to guess what your wife wants is an unenviable, impossible position. My wife makes me play this game every Fri/Sat night called "Guess what she wants to eat," and the reward if I guess correctly is nothing, and the punishment if I guess incorrectly is a night of frustration and her being hangry and pissed for 2 hours just because she can't put into words what food she wants to eat. 10 years into our relationship I push back and tell her that I'm not playing the "Guess what you want to eat" game.

MVG did a video on the leak.
If I pump my anus full of vodka is it political?
I'm more baffled by anyone talking about their significant others on ERA when they know posters will shit on them for any minor infraction.
I think you're partially right, BUT. The game has been getting concentrated hate campaigns for such a long time that unfortunately it's difficult to determine which flares of anger are generated by reasonable reactions to the direction the story is taking and which are standard right-wing reactionary takes

What the fuckthis is why the proliferation of feminism and LGBT are so important. We are here to teach the straights that societally imprinted gender roles are contextual, relative, and totally fluid.

There has been no hate campaign before the spoilers. Every thread on the game at NeoGAF has been a shit-show of homophobia and complaining about SJW's ever since the lesbian kiss promo. I imagine lots of places like 4chan or reddit have the same as NeoGAF isn't a unique flower.Not sure that counts as a hate campaign but the hate for the game/ND/the LGBT stuff has been strong for the better part of a year.

Quote from: IncelchiefThe absolutely deranged idea that all opinions need to be heard is a fundamental flaw in the US Media system which inherently causes reality and dangerous fantasy to be given equal weight and presentation.It's crazy and the amount of people who argue it and cite "freedumz of peach" drives me insane
