I made a post a while back that had some fanboys mad at me (not that it shojld matter but I play Xbox far more than any other console at the moment) how I was concerned because Microsoft had apparent issues with a lot of studios and I wondered is it something they are doing. With this, the issues making halo infinite, and rare ware being lost in the wilderness until sea of thieves (and apparnelty everwild having similar dev problems with the creative leads leaving) I think it’s a fair question.
Oh God, this again… 🙄

Look dude, when you grant your studios this much anatomy (as confirmed again by this article) some will go smooth, some won’t. There is no “Microsoft problem”, there’s an Initiative problem (or possibly a Daryl Gallagher problem). Exacerbated by the developer labor situation across the entire industry. There’s no connective tissue to any of their other studios here. That’s the point of granting all this anatomy.

And I’m sure you saw their MetaCritic award from a few days ago, so I don’t need to tell you how Psychonauts 2, Flight Sim, Age of Empires, Halo, and Forza Horizon went just last year. You know all this already. There’s no way this is in good faith.

Thordinson defends CCP totalitarianism with whataboutism, claiming the U.S. also violently suppresses dissent by making up complete nonsense about BLM and "anti-Chinese rhetoric", merely gets threadbanned: https://www.resetera.com/threads/five-people-charged-with-acting-as-chinese-government-agents-to-spy-on-and-harass-u-s-residents-critical-of-beijing.563302/post-83775397

The US doesn’t have the best track record with these things so I’m a bit wary of this. Gang Chen, for example, had his life ruined because of the China Initiative. These charges could be legit but it’s hard to trust the US government when it comes to this.

Quote
Such thin skin from a government. You're not going to be in charge of one of the two most powerful nations on the planet without some people objecting to how you lead. Even if China were governed well and fairly (it's clearly not) there will be people that disagree and make those points publicly. Silencing them within the country is hard enough but trying to do so around the world is impossible and self-defeating as it'll make more people recognize how shitty the CCP is.

The American government is similar when it comes to thin skin and silencing dissent in their own country whether through imprisonment or murder.

The CCP is obviously garbage, of course.
Quote from: Thordinson

The American government does a lot wrong, and a lot of horrible things but to say they're the same as the CCP in terms of suppressing information within the US is absolutely ludicrous.
I meant similar and they have done plenty of suppressing of dissent within the US. Look at BLM protestors who were arrested and you’ll begin to wonder why they are looking at decades in prison under bogus charges. Ask organizers if they got visits at home from police. It’s no secret leftists are targeted by the government.
Quote from: Thordinson
Quote
I fail to see what that has to do with the topic at hand?

Fair enough.

As for the topic at hand, I hope these charges aren’t intended to ruin lives/bogus like many from the China Initiative have been.
Quote from: Thordinson

You do realize that all your posts do in this thread is hand-waive valid criticisms of shit that specific victims of the CCP have dealt with in order to whatabout the US, right? It's bizarre. Yes, the US sucks. That's now what this is about. If you think this is all fake then I don't know what to tell you.
If these charges aren’t legit but more targeting of Chinese, yes it is what it’s about. The anti-Chinese sentiment is strong in the US and Anti-Chinese rhetoric is getting people beaten and killed.

I’m skeptical after the China Initiative which wrongfully accused professors and other people.

Quote
Why are so many topics about the CCP doing something F'd up met with an anti US response that's completely unrelated.

This isn't the first time the CCP has sent a message in NYC by harassing citizens outside of their country. This needs to stop.

It’s not unrelated that the US has falsely charged people before for similar things under the China Initiative.

I agree that the CCP does need to stop doing this. Again, if the charges are legit, I’m glad something is being done.

So, I cannot believe that I need to say this, but if you're going to post something gory then put it behind spoiler tags. We have members with conditions like PTSD as well as various traumas and extremely graphic footage can be triggering to people so please be considerate and put stuff like that behind spoiler tags.

Thank you.
I like how they can't ask people to do this simply because it's nice but instead have to point to users made up mental issues.

Yeah, weird how the Sony fanatics can't understand why they can't talk about the latest ad from Sony because of something that doesn't have anything to do with the game, the developer, the publisher or the content of the game or ad in their thread for talking about all things Sony. Especially when the only statement for the "rule" is a single post a few days ago about how they won't be allowing it because it upsets Kyuuji and PlanetSmasher.

When they did it with cyberpunk, i frowned a bit but i gave them a pass. But doing to the only two AAA games i know of that let you do this? That is a trend.
No wonder the trans community left in droves when the resetera mods are that blatant with their transphobia.

Not a good look, and i'm forever giving the sideeye to anyone that defends that sort of bigotry. Honestly i'm so tired.

The bare bones OT for the Hogwarts game when it comes out is going to have no one posting in it because why bother? You’ll be dog piled and banned for daring to say you bought and are loving the game.

So, congrats yet again for silencing discussion about a highly anticipated video game on the video game portion of your site Era  :wow

They going to blur out the games name too for the sales charts threads?  :lol

People tried to do it before that's where we got the explanations about how someone gifted it to her so that someone as informed as her could report back about how problematic the game was. In a later thread somebody did bring up how Kyuuji New Game Plus'd Cyberpunk 2077 and even unlocked it early despite the jihad against it and got banned. At this point, anyone who doesn't realize that The Kyuuji Cult runs Bartertown deserves their perm.

Do you have to be a member to see staff posts, or is it just not stickied? I can't see it at all.
It was not threadmarked, it's post #1160 on page 24 of the thread, if you didn't see it, that's your fault. Don't expect to just come into a thread after a Sony "event" and just post about it if you haven't been keeping up on the details.

But with Disney having a history of donating to problematics, spud mods and their clique underlings: "It's a universal problem!"

That's completely different. Disney promotes progressive values through its works. All Harry Potter promotes is Joanne's white supremacist agenda against democracy. Stop JAQing off in bad faith.

I don’t believe Jussie Smollett but I recognize when a Black man gets railroaded through a justice system that is out to get him. A rich entitled actor is hardly the most sympathetic face of reform. Still, Smollett’s case demonstrates that when powerful elites decide they want a Black man locked up, nothing and nobody — not even the elected prosecutor — will stop them.

...

But that wasn’t enough for many White people — and some Black people as well — who wanted a pound of Smollett’s flesh. Not for then-President Donald Trump, who tweeted the case was “an embarrassment to our nation.” Not for then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who called the resolution a “whitewash.” New York Post columnist Kyle Smith wrote, presciently and unsympathetically, “Smollett has not been nailed, and Chicago wants him nailed. He will get nailed.”

And nailed he was. The case against Smollett was revived, he was convicted of five counts of disorderly conduct, and last week sentenced to 150 days in jail. But incarcerating Smollett for falsely reporting a hate crime has nothing to do with protecting actual victims of racist and homophobic violence. Rather, it’s legal vigilantism that sends a stern warning about the limits of criminal justice reform: If those in power want a Black man locked up, they will find a way to do it.

Here’s the bizarre procedure they used to reprosecute Smollett: A retired Chicago judge who had nothing to do with the case filed a petition with the city’s criminal court, claiming that she had been so personally damaged by the derogatory media commentary that her “ability to live peacefully has been diminished.”

In response, Chicago’s chief criminal court judge appointed a special counsel to examine whether Smollett should be recharged, and to investigate how Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s office had handled the case. Setting aside any presumption of innocence, the judge’s order described Smollett as a “charlatan who fomented a hoax the equal of any twisted television intrigue.”

Famed attorney Dan K. Webb, who served as special counsel in the Iran-contra scandal, was installed to oversee Foxx’s handling of the case. Trump had reportedly asked Webb to defend him in the Mueller investigation but Webb declined. He found time, however, to charge Smollett with several felonies. He also released a report saying Foxx’s office had not broken any laws but abused its discretion when Foxx remained involved with the case after saying she recused herself.

So a White male lawyer in private practice was handed more control over a criminal case than the Black female prosecutor elected to make those kinds of decisions. But Webb’s decision to throw the book at Smollett didn’t just undermine the legitimacy of the system. Public safety took a hit too.

Sending a Black gay man to jail for lying about being attacked will not encourage hate crime victims to come forward. Instead, it sends the message that they, rather than their assailants, are subject to being incarcerated if authorities don’t believe their stories. The most victim-sympathetic response would have been for the police to express disappointment in Smollett’s false report, but to let the community know that other allegations would receive the same intense response that Smollett’s had.

Except that no one would actually believe that, particularly not those minorities who seldom receive equal protection of law. Smollett’s initial claims got special treatment because of his celebrity status. It’s why then-Chicago police Superintendent Eddie Johnson flew to New York to be interviewed on national television, and devoted about two dozen officers and $130,000 to investigating Smollett’s allegations. In a city where most homicides go unsolved, Foxx’s decision to focus her prosecutorial resources on the real bad guys seems eminently reasonable.

Progressive prosecutors such as Foxx are an important component of criminal justice reform. But Black female elected district attorneys face the most pushback. Florida Gov. Rick Scott took away death penalty cases from the state’s first elected African American prosecutor, after she criticized capital punishment. A rogue Massachusetts judge tried to force then-Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins to prosecute a LGBTQ rights activist, before the state’s high court affirmed her independence.

Chicago’s Fraternal Order of Police, which had launched repeated racist and sexist attacks against Foxx, made the Smollett case the major issue in her reelection. Foxx won, indicating that the people of Chicago have confidence in her criminal justice priorities — even if certain elites do not.

As for Smollett, he is just another Black man serving time — in a system more perverted than his crime.

Seems pretty harsh to fully ban Hogwarts legacy from the site? I understand the reasoning but it still seems harsh on the developers. If the game had direct jk Rowling input then fair enough but it has nothing to do with her.
Quote from: g23
Also, correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the developers of the game itself come out in support of the trans community and are adding transgender friendly customization options to the game itself? It doesn't absolve JK of her bigotry but at least the devs themselves are making an effort...
Quote from: Kyuuji
Did the latest State of Play mention anything about trans people?
Quote from: g23
It did not, however i remember reading an article saying that they would implement it:


Found it.
Quote from: Kyuuji
So it didn't. So perhaps not worth leaning on that angle too much. You also appreciate how trying to position something that ultimately aids in someone's ability to deny trans rights and endanger trans people as 'trans friendly' is kind of insidious in and of itself right. That's what the IP affords her, and what she influences its fanbase towards.

B-Dubs seems to have transitioned from explaining why it's banned to just "we said thing so we're going to stick to thing"
Quote from: B-Dubs
When the game comes along we'll have an OT to provide a space for those who will play it, I'm not about to tell someone what to boycott and what not to, but we already said we won't be hosting the marketing for the game. We said what we said and we'll be sticking to it.

Banning discussion of a game that lets you play as a non binary character if you want to  :yikes

When they did it with cyberpunk, i frowned a bit but i gave them a pass. But doing to the only two AAA games i know of that let you do this? That is a trend.
No wonder the trans community left in droves when the resetera mods are that blatant with their transphobia.

Not a good look, and i'm forever giving the sideeye to anyone that defends that sort of bigotry. Honestly i'm so tired.

in all honesty this is not even a fucking joke, they have literally thrown the biggest hissy fits over the two highest profile games in the industry that have gone to the greatest lengths to be trans/non-binary friendly  :doge

Uhhh, tut tut.  Kyuuji will be the judge of that.  Please gift her an exploratory research copy of the Collector's Edition or stay in your lane, shut up and listen.

If these games were not an ACTIVE THREAT to people's lives nobody would be saying anything about it. But the minute somebody politely asks not to be made to feel unsafe on ResetERA.com and the staff work to be inclusive of diverse views all you capital-G Gamers come out of the woodwork to complain about the women breaking up your little boys club.

You have a weirdly condescending tone and I don't understand why. The game is amazing, even with its issues. Pretty sure most of us are more than fine with how we will "continue to game".

I bet if we looked at your purchase history you'd look like a hypocrite, too.

This is the last place I want to be asking this question, but I literally have no friends and don't really talk to my family.

I've been married for 11 years. We have two children, a soon to be 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter. I'm 40 and my wife is 33. So, yeah, she was young

All this could've been avoided if Sony made a sequel to PS3's Sorcery.

RedMercury thread backfire -

Quote
So here I am, taking on a boss in Elden Ring. I am having some difficulty with it, so I decide hey, I'll summon someone to help me out because I am not having much fun.

I summon someone who put their sign down, we go into the boss arena, they get instakilled.

Okay, well hell I have plenty of these summoning things, let's try again. It happens again. Then it happens 20 more times. Not all in a row, but for the most part people are getting very little offense in, dying to patterns even me who is the person in need of help has down.

I am just having trouble understanding what people get out of it, because it's a waste of time for everyone involved. The person being summoned gets nothing unless the boss is defeated, the person who needs help has to use a resource and wait around again for a long time afterwards for another summon. If you don't know that you have the boss down and can beat it, are you really being helpful that much?

Even Morrigan is throwing insults at him -

Quote
Right?? 😂

Not gonna lie, I burst out laughing at this thread. Like bro if you're that much better than those other players maybe you wouldn't need to summon help in the first place

Her ban is coming soon.

Without knowing anything about the poor woman the REE court has reached its verdict.

She's a closet racist and throws terms around like thugs and ghetto and shit like that.

She's gotta go OP. And do you want your children to be raised by a closet racist?

Like, we'll be driving and a black person will cut her off and she'll say something like "black piece of shit." And I'll straight up call her a racist and she'll get mad. Then I'll ask if a white person cut her off, would she say white piece of shit or just piece of shit? Of course her answer is always white, which I know is bs as I've never heard her say that shit in my life.

Meanwhile on r/relationships

"I'm married for 11 years, but as of late he calls me a racist all the time based on things he reads on the internet. Also he makes terrible financial decisions which have been a strain on our relationship (we're paying $250 for a car we don't even own) I want to stay together for the kids but [...]"
