I get paid six figures

Is that six Australian figures, or a real currency?
It's in dollarydoos, but it is also six figures in your daddy Warbucks too

Incelchief in that thread getting into fights with people and somehow Qanon discussion has popped up in a thread about Ghostbusters.

Would be a ban hammer for so many people but this shit stain gets free reign to do whatever she wants on there.

What?!

You're the one declaring Qanon the actual dominant consensus ideology
:dead

I really hope the new Ghostbusters movie is good and makes a lot of money. Excelsiorlef's meltdown will be glorious. She's already pissed that people aren't hating the trailers.

There’s plenty of “nobody’s threatening to boycott this one hmm curious” baiting going on in there.

Most of them have given up and admitted that GB 2016 was terrible but there are a few holdouts.

Maybe because these trailers aren't completely awful. If a trailer makes a movie look as bad Chickbusters then you know there is no hope for the actual movie.

The lesson from that is HR people are humourless aliens sent from another planet to destroy any semblance of joy left in the modern workplace.
Even though her sarcasm meter is sometimes broken I vouched for her to get a permanent position at our company so she can take care of things I don't care about and overall she's doing a good job keeping everybody happy.
Like any other employee she just needs some guidance and common sense advice once in a while which I'm happy to give :trumps

Meanwhile I'm just feeding everyone a diet of Blackadder and Mitchell and Webb during lunch time when I'm at the office  8)

To which I would say...does that matter? Since when is the lore of the game a good excuse for what is at the bare minimum not a good look? The lore argument reminds me of Kojima's defense for Quiet's outfit, or Daniel Vávra's excuse for keeping minorities out of Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Lore accuracy or historical accuracy is no excuse for questionable content...much less adding a minority faction for players to slaughter.

Add minorities but also don't add minorities!!!

Actually do whatever doesn't fit the setting!

Quote
Imagine if they added any other racial group to mow down. Imagine a group of raiders who all happen to be Black. Would that be appropriate just because the lore writers say so?

So are they really going with only white people can be enemies in video games?  If the entire game was about killing Chinese people I might feel differently, but one random faction being Chinese just doesn’t seem like a big deal to me.

I don't know how the mods can't see the problem with how a part of their userbase only engages through hammering the report button. What kind of forum culture is that? And then the mods whine about how hard their work is because they have to go through endless amounts of reports

At the very least, the content could be reviewed and modified or removed.

Chinese enemies do not have to be present in order to make a good Fallout game. The games are primarily local stories about surviving in a wasteland. In the Fallout universe the war is long over and not relevant to your current goals.

Case in point: in Fallouts 1 and 2, you were able to kill children. This actually impacted the game's European release until they removed children from the game entirely for Europe.

Later, they reviewed this element of the game and removed it from 3 onwards. You cannot kill children anymore.

So why not review the necessity of killing Chinese people as well?

We should boycott the entire gaming industry until there is a AAA game about gamergate that folks are forced to play before their console or digital storefront will activate to allow other games to be played.

Still remember the days where you could just pop in Socom and play as SEALs or terrorists and macarena over each others corpses without anybody whining about it on the internet. It was all in good fun.

That was hot off 9/11 too.

prediction for fallout china thread:

if the thread is unlocked for any length of time it will become an endless carousel of "it's ok to kill races in video games," "this is sinophobia," and "no this is ccp and violence is justified"

none of the staff are asian enough to feel comfortable establishing consistent rules surrounding china talk, in the past they have banned for both sinophobia and for defending the ccp's abuses

and the topic just isn't high profile enough to fill the op with red mod text and let it continue, so they're going to leave it locked and hope everyone forgets about it, no bans handed out

There was an entire episode of Family Guy guest starring Rush Limbaugh. I never was much of a fan of Seth Macfarlane or his shows, and after seeing him try to normalize that bigoted piece of shit he can fuck right off.

Normalizing the one that was the biggest Radio commentators in the US. Are you high?

FACT CHECK: Rush Limbaugh appeared in THREE Family Guy episodes. None of which had more viewers than Limbaugh averaged in daily listeners.

edit: And Twitter crazy conservative James Woods has appeared in EIGHT Family Guy episodes (and at least THREE Kingdom Hearts games) himself!

Actually, IIRC, the episode "starring" Limbaugh is one that ResetERA.com might want to rewatch for hidden clues. The punchline was Brian, for switching from die hard progressive to insane conservative after reading a single book, and thus, a stand-in for Rush's more fanatical listeners. And Limbaugh was shown to be a cynical non-believer in ideology who simply exploits his audience for money.

Why are millennials and gen z such mentally limp individuals and why do we celebrate their mental fragile nature

Re: Simone Biles

Except that gymnastics is pretty fucking dangerous sport to be in a bad place mentally so is not exactly that unwise she called it off. People should probably not celebrate as some sort of victory “mental health first” (BS excuse, it was dangerous for her and would affect her team), thought, but I don’t think you can mock the act itself.

ZeoVagine says the reactions to Biles are because she's a woman.

Get all the way the fuck out of here

Compare the way male athletes like Ben Simmons or Nick Kyrgios get clowned for perceived mental weakness - remember Donovan McNabb throwing up in the huddle - and compare that with the kid gloves reaction to Biles and Osaka.

Nobody deserves to be shit on for looking after their mental health but don't dare say that female athletes are treated worse in that regard.

"...agreed upon by employees in a company-wide Diversity, Equity & Inclusion organization"

 :lol

If there's one thing I know about DEI in large companies, it's that nobody agrees with anything. The most recent DEI initiative I saw had been split in two because the 'we're all the same' cats couldn't jive with the 'colourblind racism is still racism' gang.

Then there's the whole can of worms where you ask a 40 year old woman a question that you think you know she'll answer one way, and she answers the opposite way. Watching a balding white dude try and figure out his place in a 'TERFs are not feminist!' discussion is more painful than passing kidney stones.

Bets on whether or not Blizzard drones will stop caring about this faster than they did the whole Hong Kong debacle?

No ban, but you now have a history of histories and this WILL come back to haunt you.

Funny isn't it, how they repeat the old tired shit that we as customers have heard any time a publisher has fucked up, about "we're listening".
Because we damn sure know you always listened but actively ignored everything. But know that that your stock has dropped and a large portion of workes
have threatened to walk out, now you Bobby and your 150 million dollar sexpest ass wanna repeat the same shit Ubisoft said they would, while nothing has changed. Fuck you and everyone one of your buddies there. As if you would fire all these higher ups, all these directors and teams leads and yourself.

Don't fall for this, continue to fight, unionize, FUCKING UNIONIZE until they meet your demands, until you have something on paper, something worth shit and not this weak ass excuse after they said time and time again that they would fight this case and called it untrue.

Fuck Bobby Kotick that overgrown frat boy piece of shit, that would sell your moms ashed if he could increase the stockprice for 0.01%
Fuck Activision Blizzard, a company that cares as much about their fucking values at their shitty statue, as thinking about pissing on you if you would be engulfed in flames.
Fuck the AAA game industry in general. No matter if it's Ubisoft with its buggy whip arm "alpha males" and their right wing conspiracy theories in their apolitical games, if it is tech bro dude culture at Insomniac, overworking your staff at Rockstar, CDPR, Naughty Dog, Epic, demanding that your people watch real gore at Neatherrealm and all the other shit that is too much for me to remember. Fuck all of em.

and then which is the worse look?

caring more and for longer about a lady who was given a work review she didn't like than you did about a massive city of subjugated people?

At least I know who to bully and to blame when there's no new COD this year  :maf

Thinking about buying Infinite Warfare because I've been meaning to check out the campaign and it is on sale right now on Xbox  :thinking
