I thought it was just some new slang for weed. A quick Google -

"In a typical shisha session (about 1 hour), a shisha smoker can inhale the same amount of toxins as a cigarette smoker consuming over 100 cigarettes."

That guy's fucked.

Latinos is inherently inclusive of latinos and latinas, but latines is also coming into use.

Still can't see anything but latrines when they post that shit.

My partner is Latin American. Not a single one of her extended family has a problem with using Latinos as a collective term. Almost every single one of them would be confused if I tried to explain this stupidity to them. Pretty much all of them would be like, "fucking white people".

is perfectly fine and accepted by the layman.

I see the sentiment a lot on this forum that people find the word gamer either offensive or cringey and this is ridiculous. It's a perfectly acceptable term for someone who plays games as a hobby. Any feelings you associate with the word are entirely and probably a reflection of some misplaced shame you carry with your hobby. Just like we call people cyclists, or readers, bookworms, cinephiles, movie buffs, foodies or binge watchers we can define people with an ardent interest in games "Gamers".

It really feels like some people on the site are stuck in the mentality of school and being social outcasts to look at a word and recoil from being defined as it.

Games are as diverse as any other entertainment medium, They can reach lofty hights and be called Art or they can be hammy schlock and fodder.

This is just straight up wrong. Almost all games are based in fantasy or sci-fi and most would be classified as "action".

Compared to film and TV, there are desperately few games that would qualify as drama or comedy and very few where the conflict is resolved without violence.

Although, for a forum whose inhabitants almost exclusively watch comic book movies, they can be excused for not understanding what diverse means.

How did the lead designer let this happen?.

Did they sneak it past him?

I like how the lead designer is suddenly transphobic despite never having said anything like that. And instead of this making them question their perception of him, it must have been "sneaked past him". After all that more likely than RE being wrong.

It kinda is though. Why would your present gender not matching the gender you were assumed to have at birth be even remotely relevant to this game? How would you even know a character was transgender unless it's a plot point in the story? Do you go off physical presentation and how that matches up with your criteria for man / woman / male / female? Yikes! Wouldn't the revelation that the character was trans be problematic anyway, akin to deadnaming?

I feel like they want the kind of sterotypical representation that a transphobe would create.

I'd be interested to see what trans people outside of that nut-hutch have to say about what would constitute 'proper' representation for trans people in a game that never touches on trans issues.

Can't believe the lowly peons working on the game had the gall to try and sneak that past the lead game designer. Thankfully REEEE caught on to this act of treachery before even more pixels harmed trans lives.
