So no matter how sensitive or respectful they might be, white people should never explore anything outside of their own culture and heritage? It is WILD how the far left is swinging all the way back around to the idea that segregation might be a good idea

That pretty much somes up 99% of the “outrage” reported by the news thjese days.  Its a handful of people on Twitter bitching.

Imagine a group of allies and progressives being like “hey we want to explore some other cultures in a fun and not appropriation way so let’s hire some people to guide us on that way and present it to people” and standing on the sidelines and being like NO YOU CAN’T DO THAT!!!!

This is overblown criticism, but consistent with how this site has been moving towards. It feels like most articles are just some variation of “Hey! Popular thing is actually bad!”

So....a solution? Sounds like you don’t want them to explore these cultural identifiers and the explorer-genre tropes. Should half the cast be fired and people you find “approved” be playing this game?

“This may seem like an overly cynical and bad-faith interpretation of what Critical Role is doing with this new campaign.”

Right there with you. Arise and Jacks are good goes as well. I thought the fun was in the deduction but mileage may vary.

Nobody is ever happy with anything.

If you’re literally just a little bit past the tutorial that lone image is enough to very easily infer a major plot development that’s going to happen late into the game.

Oh, I didn’t realize this site was adopting Polygon’s policy towards spoilers. Good to know.

Bro this pic is a major spoiler for most people. This is a VERY late reveal. Please remove the pic and label the article as spoilers.

I don’t want to scroll any further down to find it. Please someone post the “I'm shocked" gif and let's end this discussion.

It’s super hard for me to trust Google when I’m buying digital content now, given how I lost all the albums I “bought” on Play Music, now inaccessible to me...

This is an incorrect take. (although, I grant you a sad commentary on the world, and people’s entitlement on social media today).

In this game you just catch and battle Pokemon to fill out your Pokedex. That’s it. That is the game. There is ostensibly a main storyline, but it’s so straightforward and basically a given because the game knows what you’ll actually be doing isn’t rushing through the story, but instead exploring every nook and cranny…

...or you could ignore all of it, just focus on the main story quests, and finish the game in like 15-20 hours. Or literally any combination of the two. Play it how you want, and at your own speed.

I imagine (or at least hope to imagine) that a lot of his “fans” are kids or really young adults who don’t get the whole parasocial relationship thing. They’re really susceptible to hype and fomo, and a need to belong in some group.

It makes them perfect targets for predators like dumbass over here(since I refuse to…

This guy is scum but I can’t say I really feel all that bad for anyone who would call themselves a “fan” of his. I’ve followed content creators for years and none of them turned out to be cretins, it’s really not that difficult.

I think people are looking at the side quests as something you need to finish immediately before advancing and that’s the wrong way to look at them.
