Watched a few reviews. Yeah, probably never touching this game. From the grating voice acting, lame enemies and the terrible Ubi style icon infested map and the heap of bad design decisions, I'll just never be able to justify spending my limited time on such mediocrity.On top of that I can't even imagine the state of the PC version when no review codes were given out.

My rule is pretty simple unless I hear actual support I assume everyone has a knife behind their back. I love mark, he's my joker forever.... But he might hate me and I cannot trust him without a full statement.

His view was "Whataboutism" and that I spend money on people who probably have terrible views. I'm not saying Im not a hypocrite either and I'm not perfect, but I dunno, this seems pretty cut and dry.Just fucking depressing man. People are like "Well my entertainment is worth a lot more" .On top of that, he's Jewish and when I explained the coded Goblin part, he was like "Oh I mean it could be any goblin thing, its a children's book that got super popular" and "well, I like Harry Potter so ..."And hey, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a game I would have loved as a child (and open world RPGs are my thing), Maybe I could suggest donating to a Trans charity the cost of a game? But its like "Just don't buy it, there are a ton of games".So yeah, makes me sad is all. Curious to hear other thoughts. Apologies if this is not allowed and I can delete

More like Gary White-a
Mark Hamill is a boomer who could have accidentally clicked on things but this is the second time and I don’t need to defend rich white men. Hope he gets his shit together.
Yeah, the “older person not understanding what they do when they click on that like button” reminds that that’s exactly what some of us said the first time JKR liked a transphobic tweet ages ago, so needless to say I’m not feeling super confident on this.I don’t see how you’d be exposed to her hateful diatribes and somehow accidentally keep following her and liking that shit.

I dont get it. Accept the badness True.It is what it is. There are no conspiracies here where people dunk on this game because of some racial ulterior motives.

It's just Era doesn't really like this game much. It's ok. You can enjoy the game just stop with all these reasons why it's not being highly being spoken about the way you want.I love the MC design but that God awful VA or I should say dialog kills it for me. (Aside some of the bare environments we've seen)Edit: looking at the overall score, 70% would be a solid game in my eyes and def would play if it lands on PS+ or buy at a discount in about 1 year. But it would be heavily based on my backlog.

This is actually like the first scene from the game (that I've seen) that wan't cringe. The actors kinda carry it.
Yeah, that isn't bad at all, but considering the identity of the tweeter...
There’s a huge corner of the internet that’s been trained to hate this style of writing and be very loud about it. It gets the views.
It's a Marvel dialogue moment. You could see Tony Stark saying this stuff to Vision...minus the fuck. It's not great, but it's not terrible
The delivery is great. I thought it was amusing. But nah, the entire game is like the worse thing ever or something.

That Eva Green thread is amazing. Bending over backwards to defend calling them peasants just because they want to stick their dicks in her. “She did it in private” ok and? Why not just call them pricks or assholes? “She doesn’t have a history of this!” Again I say ok and? Era routinely wants people who slip up once sent to the gulags for life. Suddenly someone you’re horny for does it and she gets a second chance?

Quote from: ToddBonzalezWhy? Hitting is about technique. Strength is a factor, but not the only factor. What would stop a female athlete from becoming a good contact hitter? I know we all want to be progressive and all but men are just better at sports and it's not just because of strenght but speed, reaction time etc. Some of those are obvious and the ones who aren't like reaction time have been documented. People also thought the US womens national team would be good against men because they are so dominant. And then they played against male teenagers and lost, and then lost 5-2 which is quite the beating in football, against an UNDER 15 team. Not not against some real Madrid under 15 team either who can have all the under 15 talent in the world, no. Against some team from dallas. The worst player in the MLB is better than the best female player in the world by quite a bit, i guarantee you.

Quote from: The BearThis quote from IGN review is damning to me."Forspoken’s world and story are about as bland as they come, equal parts predictable and forgettable. That’s not so offensive on its own, but the real crime is how poorly the writing establishes any of its characters and the relationships between them – it’s like it constantly assumed I must already be invested in these people in a way it never actually made me."It's 100% like the worst writing issues XV had (remember Jared?). It makes me slightly worried about FF16. Japanese style of writing to those in the west can came across a jarring or corny.Localisation and converting scripts should be much better than it is.

Vince having an affair with Rita Chatterton was confirmed by everyone close to them at the time in the wrestling world. The split point was if it was consensual or not. The news of Vince paying her to leave this story behind doesn't add much, if someone was already into the WWE this isn't the type of story that will mean anything to them. The only "mythos" I can see having impact are if some sort of proof of Vince helping Snuka to hide a murder or Vince sexual assaulting someone for real come out, until the payments are just "don't talk about our relationship" than nothing will come out of it.

I wonder if these people realize how much of a pro-segregationist argument they make on a daily basis. The constant message from them seems to be all races/religious/ethnic groups should stay in their own "lanes." Try to write/portray any group not your own (except if they are yts, of course) in a piece of media and watch as they descend down on you and beat you into a blood pulp and drag your carcass around social media for ritual shaming.The constant lesson creatives are getting from these people is to not even try. And since these people are loud, obnoxious, and companies constantly bend to their whims due to Twitter outrage, this is often the voices creatives hear most, and defer to, even if said people are in the stark minority.

So I already stopped doing fucking with anything Harry Potter the second I learned that the JoKe was a piece of shit but this is extending my ban on Potter shit to another generation now.She's a piece of shit, she's created an empire that is making her richer by selling a bunch of trash in the worst possible way and she clearly doesn't give a single shit about her legacy in this whole trash filled world.I'm having trouble expressing how much of a trash pile she is, was and always was.Like she could never manage to pretend to care about anything beyond her own little self.
The lead is Fire Emblem being #1 and "Fire Emblem Engage is the second biggest launch for the series in the UK" Loudninja miss the point to celebrate a whole lot of nothing much?Since when do we make threads for the game that is #23 on the chart damn dude.
