Nah, see, Elena is that “anime black female” thing. She has straight, white hair... and she also wears, like... nothing? Her outfits barely even fits as “native to a country in Afrika.” She’s just some character a Japanese artist designed in the 90s without much research or care. There’s almost nobody who would stop to think “man, that’s a badass character. I wish I could be like her.”Laura is a slightly better argument, but still, it would be like making a media product of an entirely diverse cast of characters with no Caucasians, and then adding in a single fat, red-headed, frizzy-fro, porcelain white guy, wearing an ill-fitting speedo or something. And then people say “see? You got a white character.” No, not really, you didn’t. And you can’t just point to other characters who “are close” to what someone was looking for and go “see? Street Fighter had all of 2 black women kind of... unless you wanted a character with street style and modern appeal and represents black people in the US.”When designing a character, it should always be important to nail a visual design that people don’t just find interesting to look at, but can identify with and see as “cool”. That’s part of OverWatch’s massive appeal. It’s why Street Fighter has always been really “quirky”, but not necessarily “wow, I really wanna’ cosplay/be more than a handful of these characters.”
They were probably halfway through book 4.

drkarate098 > Ian Walker6/03/22 4:54pmSo Deejay, Sean, Birdie and Dudley aren’t black because they are Jamaican, Brazilian and British then?
The staff message is encouraging everyone to be sensitive of each other. We should be able to do that, regardless of our stance.I followed the trial in full. I sympathized with Depp, and expressed that repeatedly in the previous thread. I'm not the only mod to do so.You really don't need to dig for underlying meanings in the staff post.

People can comment on what they want to comment on, you don't have be triggered by it and respond either.I'm not apologising for saying I don't like the music and for hoping its not all like that.
I don't appreciate that implication.So I'm not a fan of one genre. That makes me racist huh? I love jazz and blues, but fuck me... I guess I hate black people. News to me.This is a discussion forum. Any comment on a topic (that's not off topic) is by definition, not unprompted.And like I said, if this trailer had country music, nu-metal, K-pop, polka or any other kind of music that many people dislike, I 100% would expect people to comment about it.
That's the soundtrack of the US version of the movie, for americans, the biggest fans of the IP.
I don't see any reason to be embarassed for not liking a certain style, its a personal preference after all. I admit thought that I had completely forgoten about 3rd Strike as when it came out, almost none of the arcades in my area had it so I barely touched it!So yes, people are correct that this is not "new" for the series, mea culpa and my apologies on that! Apart from that though, I still don't feel that it jells very well with the more grunge / punkish rock vibe that I recall from most of the SF games.I got no issues with hip hop being a street music style, but in the end its not like punk, smash, rock and many many other style weren't also street music once upon a time.I simply feel that those suit this particular series more. Not sure though why so many people think that a personal preference is a "hot take" but eh, who cares. If you thing that the style shown yesterday and the song were great, then thats awesome, I'm glad you will enjoy it!In the end, the music is a secondary thing in this case.My no1 hope is that we avoid the massive dissapointment that was the SF5 launch, Capcom should really deliver a full and complete experience from the getgo and not launch an early access title again (no matter how nice the core gameplay was!)If they deliver a solid and complete title (even with the fully expected tons of seasons and extra characters to buy), they can have eurovision music and dressups for all I care 😂ps: any leaks / news about having Sakura in the starting setup? I 'suffered' in SF5 waiting for season 3 till they deigned to bring her back.
already said I don't mean it this way. English it not my first language so I am understanding that what I said really didn't translate the way I meant it, and I apologise again for that, I honestly do not mean to imply that I have an issue with a specific culture, I'm appalled even with the idea of doing something like that as I'm married with a person of different race, background, religion and country!All I meant is that my personal preference in the style of the series is the the grunge / punkish rock style of the SF games which permeated my childhood with SF2 and we saw in many other games of the series, while I didn't like the hip hop style of 3rd strike. Its 100% personal preference on the art and music style, it has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of gameplay, people's races, backgrounds etc.I've edited the original msg to clarify this and I apologize again for not explaining properly what I wanted to say and for upsetting people.
All you need to understand is that black people are tired of people shitting on our art every time it shows up in media, by saying it "doesn't fit" and they wish was some other genre that is "more appropriate". That's all. What you feel doesn't matter, your preference doesn't matter, what you wish it was doesn't matter, what you think fits doesn't matter. Just stop fucking doing it. You are shitting on our culture, period. I don't care what you think you're doing. You and whoever you come from can keep it to yourselves and let us have our time in the sun with zero commentary for the next 1000 years, then check back and see if we think the scales have balanced.What you think you're doing doesn't matter, when the black people receiving it are telling you to shut he fuck up. It's fucking racism, regardless of intention. Blowing the dog whistle is what it is.Take this as a warning.
People are cool with this but if there was a climate change watermark on screen for 60 seconds of the next Marvel movie you'd lose your shit.

Nah as long as it wasn't dead center of the screen I wouldn't mind that.
I think companies should put a message at the beggining for sure
lmao is this deliberate?"As long as it's not in the middle of the screen or if it's just at the beginning"That inconvenience has limits when it's something you like I guess.
If I just drove across town while gas is 4.75, spent $30 on a ticket and a snack, and showed up early to get a good seat?Yeah I don't want it dead center middle of the screen obstructing the scene. I would be totally fine with every movie opening up with some kind of AD or statement regarding climate change and how we can help though. It doesn't necessarily need to be an inconvenience or annoying to be effective. Pretty sure most people would feel the same way.
It does need to be an inconvenience and annoying. Make it so folks can’t ignore it. Lol Trespassing to protest is a good thing actually.
Exactly. That's why I said an ad or a statement at the beginning of every movie. Kind of a hard to ignore something on a screen that big and with speakers that loud.
Except if folks get there after said ad. Make it during the movie.
Like immediately before it starts? That's what I meant when I said before the movie starts I should have been more specific.
You understand that it defeats the entire purpose of the message if you make it so that people can easily ignore it, right?
How exactly are you ignoring an ad that comes on directly before the opening scene begins on a gigantic screen with deafening sound volume?

But you all can’t ignore that a lot of horrid shits on the right are happy to take full advantage of this trial. We have a responsibility there too. It isn’t to just reproach various figures on the left who are saying foolish shit but also to combat the bad faith approaches coming from elsewhere, which are arguably far more damaging.It’s 100% true that the worst people on the right will take advantage of this verdict and they’ll do so successfully. I was posting about this in the older thread and it’s really rearing its ugly head now with people like Rittenhouse jerking themselves off about this trial.They’re the ones who are a far bigger threat. That this trial will silence future abused women is just undeniably true. It’s a terrible and inadvertent result but it’s just true, and it doesn’t even matter that it was Amber Heard’s fault or anyone’s. We have to deal with the result regardless of who’s at fault and I really hate this weird thing where we pretend that this isn’t happening.There are two sets of assholes here. The assholes willing to brand anyone who thinks Depp should have won the trial as unambiguously misogynistic, and then people who just shrug off the Creaming of the Chuds about this trial as just inconsequential.
You do realise that the far right wouldn't be profiting from this descision nearly as much if everyone to the left of the Daily Mail didn't descide to defend a domestic abuser to own the chuds.
Its very hard to do anything about the right co-oped this when a lot of the left media is just fucking eating crazy pill and refusing to accept that Depp was the victim and it wasnt misogyny but her own violent narcisitic behaviour that she lost. The responsibility its totally on the people siding with Heard right now they are the ones responsible for future setbacks.
To be frank, many left-leaning voices on social media pretending Depp didn't deserve this victory is giving the Right, and other bad faith actors, all the ammo they need.Their position flies in the face of logic and basically demands that Depp should have been sacrificed at the altar for the "greater good".
So what am I supposed to do? It's all the left-wing pundits and blue checkmarks online who are acting like total nutjobs on this, if they won't listen to reason then what the hell are we to do about it? Right-wingers aren't wrong on this either if they say that the left are fucking nuts about it 🤷♂️
Yes.Depp was the worst nightmare of the left : An actual male victim that managed to prove he was set up by his female abuser.The chuds are over the moon. The left spirals into spreading fake news and hateful baseless accusations, or clings on private hyperbole etc...Now you have "leftists" acting literally the way the right has been acting. Using the same tactics and echo chambers. (like over 100k likes for misreading the verdict and calling it contradictory, those are all people that claim they are smart and educated btw)We can't do anything about it.If anything I hope it opens the eyes of everyone in the (actual) center left and right. Shit can't go on like that.It also has probably forever damaged the MSM and that's good and bad. Good because MSM are not reliable and take orders to push narratives, bad because now whenever there are non political issues like virus spreads and whatever, the "news" will compete with idiotic youtubers who """"fight for the truth"""".It really feels like humanity is hopeless, sometimes.
Right-wingers have been going on forever about how feminists and people supporting MeToo don't actually want equality and don't care about men and all that BS etc. This was the perfect time for everyone to show that that in fact wasn't true and that equality is indeed what they want, and to pubicly support the victim. But a huge number of them have just gone and basically confirmed that in their case it actually is true, handing the right an absolutely perfect example of it.
Yup. What am I supposed to do anyway? I already tell right-wingers to fuck off on the regular
Depp was the worst nightmare of the left : An actual male victim that managed to prove he was set up by his female abuser.
As it turns out, every Heard supporter is just like her. Act like a monster and project that onto others.
Anyone arguing against it being a public trial is arguing in bad faith
Also lotta folks coming ITT gleefully taking easy potshots at "progressive hypocrisy", like they've been long itching for the opportunity. Hardly conducive to thoughtful, nuanced discussion. But then, that was obviously never their intention to begin with.
I don't like being called an MRA, a Pirates fanboy, or any other dismissive label one can fish from the bucket of 'em because I paid attention to a trial and found what Amber Heard did despicable."Hah, you care? You know who else cares? Alt-right trolls. I didn't watch so I can't form an opinion on it except that if you care that means you are a bad person."Great insight. Thanks for adding to the conversation. People do this on this very forum. It is tiring.

Systemic change is necessary but our current system will never deliver the changes necessary.De growth is necessary but good luck selling that shit when people will complain about the loss of even minor luxuries.

That’s about an hour away from me. Jesus Christ
Jim Ryan and Playstation must be sued for misleading PS5 buyerWhat happened to “Only on Playstation”? Why would they even go with that tagline in the first place? Exclusives do not matter?! Or is that not true?Why not port them to Xbox? Because it’s the competition. They assume PC isn’t, or won’t be in x number of years.Sony trained us over x number of years to believe exclusives do matter. It was really only 1 year ago that “Only on Playstation” was the tagline they were running with. Now we are to forget about it and go along with what they want to promote next. Just because I guess.I’m going to say something most won’t like. But I respect Xbox’s transparency way more than Sony’s at this point.For third party games, like Forspoken for example. Sony loves to be transparent. They’ll put fine print at the bottom “limited exclusive for x months”.But for their own first party games which we now know are also timed exclusives, there is no such disclaimer. It’s disingenuous and they’re taking us for a fucking ride.Remember when we all thought HFW was a PS5 only game? I do. They weren’t transparent about that either.

I like how she says she's afraid of "doxxing" and spends so much time curating her online presence to protect her from the "alt-right" yet her name is all you need to find everything out about her. English major working for a decade as a "freelance writer and producer" and now partners with Leigh Alexander in her scam. She's been whining about "white supremacy" in games for a couple years yet she married your average white male Twitter mansplainer
I hope it’s clear by now that I don’t think video games will save the world. I’m not even sure we can save ourselves. But maybe that’s okay. The truth is that all the futures I imagine in which video games exist are dystopian.So what do we do in this twilight space, practitioners of a decadent art form whose very existence is perhaps contingent on the same ideologies which are accelerating us towards ecological collapse and mass suffering and death. Did the band really keep playing as the Titanic sank? Maybe they did. What else is there to do, especially if the only thing you know how to do, and love to do, is to play the saxophone?
