I'd like Jason to do some real journalistic work and figure out just how many things/personalities RE has banned

These people are really working themselves into a mountain of disappointment when HP goes on to sell millions of copies easily. Are they so delusional as to think ResetERA's take on Harry Potter will move the needle in any direction? :lol

ResetERA's take on Harry Potter
Hogwart's Legacy. Not Harry Potter which, like other Warner Bros., Avalanche Software, and J.K. Rowling associated media, remains unbanned and free to discuss across ResetERA.com's internet forums. :karen

Bloomberg employee Jason screenshotting a random forum post for a game releasing sometime next year and tweeting about it like its some breaking news about aliens invading. Embarrassing  :lol

Has resetera talked about the enormous rape potential of the HP series?

Want to fuck a hot girl? Make a polyjuice potion and make her think youre her bf!
Dont want to make a polyjuice potion? Just make a love potion!
Dont want to make a love potion? Just rape them and wipe their memory!


The possibilities are endless!

I LOVE Boomer Shooters and think the name is perfect. Such a quick and to the point name to refer to FPS that harkens back to the 90's instead of having to go "90's style FPS" all the time.

I know this is slightly off topic, but I genuinely wonder what kind of impact the Biden administration's stance on trans rights has on bigots like JK.

How does their head not explode from hearing Biden's press secretary say:

TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS!

What exactly IN the game is bigoted? Can the mods point out the stuff in the fantasy wizard game that is bigoted or....?  :lol
FACT CHECK:
The very DNA of Harry Potter encourages and/or promotes a lot of this rhetoric

recall the the use of polyjuice potion to transform oneself into another person's body, the one wizarding concoction that could mercifully allow a trans person feel happy in their own skin...and rowling immediately snuffs out that hope by turning hermione into a humanoid cat, inextricably linking the ridiculousness of furry lifestyle with legitimate trans suffering

If the biggest gaming forum can't even get to 20 pages in their thread leading to the banning of the 10th biggest franchise in the world, that's kind of an indictment on video game forums as a platform rather than praise for the forum in question.

The Cyberpunk 2077 subreddit alone has roughly 16 times as many members as Era ever had. What's more, Era has 2.1k registered users and 3.5k visitors online right now across all four forums, just the Cyberpunk subreddit has 9.4k users online at this moment.

Maybe Jason would be better admitting that it uses Resetera as a news aggregator than anything else, hell I do the same. I just can’t get into Reddit, but I would the first to admit that forums are outdated as hell.

Quote from: Aurongel
like the genre term “walking simulator”, I find “boomer shooter” to be condescending as hell and it immediately puts a bad taste in my mouth. It reminds me of how older people use “millennial” is a tribalistic catch-all term to describe someone younger than them that they despise. Despite the fact that millennials are in their 30’s.

Can we keep the oh so very, very clever snark out of genre labels please?

These people are really working themselves into a mountain of disappointment when HP goes on to sell millions of copies easily. Are they so delusional as to think ResetERA's take on Harry Potter will move the needle in any direction? :lol

I personally have zero interest in the Harry Potter franchise, but the game looks to be of decent quality and there are a shit ton of millennials who will eat this up. Popular license + quality game is always a recipe for success, I can't think of any exceptions - I mean back in the day you could get away with selling an awful game with a popular license (see: Simpsons NES) but nowadays things are a bit different.

Never heard the term 'boomer shooter' - as someone who prefers these throwbacks to modern FPS all I can do is just grin (though technically these games are more late-X, early-millennial). Some of those modern retro takes look neat too.

But this happens all the time in RE... anytime you have something that looks like it might discuss lesser-known games, game mechanics, tech/graphics, on anything more than a superficial level, it'll get derailed by something ridiculous.

Quote from: Weltall Zero
Personally I was beyond disgusted by the Blitzchung affair and how they handled it; and have boycotted their games ever since, but a forum-wide ban on Blizzard doesn't seem quite realistic right now given a) they're a much larger part of the gaming industry than WB, and b) they have made sure to cover their asses with plenty of plausible deniability (as opposed to Rowling and Leavitt who are making their stances aggressively clear). But perhaps you can mak a strong case for all Blizzard game OTs to have a disclaimer at the top a bit like the CP2077 OT had.
oh okay

Actual video game discussion thread attempt:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-throwback-shooter-thread.383828/

Two pages long.  Derailed by people saying that "boomer shooter" is offensive.

Thread created to discuss the term "boomer shooter."

https://www.resetera.com/threads/how-do-you-feel-about-the-term-%E2%80%9Cboomer-shooter%E2%80%9D.383861/

10 pages long.

:reeeee in a nut shell.

Never heard the term 'boomer shooter' - as someone who prefers these throwbacks to modern FPS all I can do is just grin (though technically these games are more late-X, early-millennial). Some of those modern retro takes look neat too.

I hadn't either.  :lol  Seems fine to me- I know exactly what kinds of FPS games they mean with that term.  Why anyone on that board would get offended over the use of the term "boomer"is beyond me, but Era getting offended at everything is like water being wet.

But this happens all the time in RE... anytime you have something that looks like it might discuss lesser-known games, game mechanics, tech/graphics, on anything more than a superficial level, it'll get derailed by something ridiculous.

Don't tell me someone shat up your Wonderswan thread.   :-\

What even qualifies as objectification anymore? Mind you he posted a gif, not just a picture of her butt

Idiot tried so hard to be woke and then a *chefs kiss* gets him

He called attention to himself by posting it in the men who post sexualized character designs thread:

I love Chun Li's new skin in Fortnite. Its interesting to see how Epic can make a better design than her iconic costume. I'm not a huge street fighter guy but this outfit looks way cooler and practical for a martial artist.

Sauce?

Hard to provide as deleted accounts just turn into deleted users with generic number... buuuut...

Even though account turned to Deleted Member 2809, the quotation lists it as Shugga. Also, that deleted account had over 25K postings which is why I looked.

Should we infer that the absence of rebuttal confirms this suspicion?

So what ever happened to the transparency that era was founded upon?
Yup I agree. GAF bans were 'personal vendettas' by the mod team. Say they didnt like you, they kept tabs on your account and banned you for the smallest infractions and to top it off, they would give you a smart ass reason to spite you. So far, this is not the case here so its progress. Well...

Boomer Shooters to me are pretty much just Redneck Rampage and Postal 2.

All those Vietnam War FPSes that were super popular in the early 2000s.

Thankfully, it was a bit under the radar so no shitting up the thread. I usually stick to retro game discussion and the 'what RPG are you playing' threads, which are mercifully free of a lot of the typical RE bullshit. Whether it's because they attract an older gamer tired of culture war BS or they're too niche for anyone to get attention for their outrage, I dunno.
