Servers are also shitting the bed harder than ever, so maybe hold off on it till they’re fixed.

I’ll probably pick it up, but I hope it doesn’t support Telltale Games not making The Wolf Among Us. That was their best series by far, but I’m guessing it didn’t get enough traction to immediately warrant a sequel. Or one at all I’m starting to fear.

Very difficult to fit in Czech etymologies into the context to make a joke, but by all means take it more serious than it isn’t. The word is of Slavic roots, so it’s shared with most languages over there. It shares the same line as arbeid, or any other version in a language, just with changes to the first few letters,…

Who’s deciding the connotation? I’d say the stereotype that Asians are good at math can have a good connotation, but it has very bad implications and effects. Telling people what they should be outraged at instead is just a constant game people are smart enough not to play, so I wouldn’t bother. There will always be…

The implications of what you’re saying don’t work out. I’ll assume you’re against locking your kid in their room and against helicopter parenting. You say rightfully there’s not much one can do.

Didn’t someone post a Tumblr thing about this? Is that where you got it from?

People seem to not understand: culture is a context. It can’t be changed. Slotting something into that context like an Egyptian rocketeer is just weird.

That’s too blind a stance; people don’t actually want to be outraged or offended. It’s just getting to a point where some stuff is basic. Cultures are a context, so putting a character in cultural garb when it isn’t their culture is all sorts of weird. It just so happens that in this context, instead of drawing the…

Yeah, modern Russia really needs to get over its hatred of robots. I mean c’mon guys, I know the word “robot” was taken from the word “to work” in Russian but jeez.

Blizzard never stated she was an LGBT icon. The community just sort of ran with it - specifically a part of the Overwatch community that wanted to see that in her. Bluntly put, women with short hair is waaay more common in Europe than North America, and as someone who lived in Russia for a stint, I didn’t really think…

I don’t think you have to place the blame on anyone, even the people making the porn. I was already knowledgeable about how to use the internet and browsers when I was a kid in the 90s. A kid today will definitely figure out ways around that stuff.

Because the way this is handled between parties and the way it’d be handled in court are different. Going to court might even clear his name of stuff he admits he might have done.

Like what? You’re sort of spiraling here but I’ll try to bring you back.

Go read the forum. There weren’t any SJWs there. In fact, they barely exist in real life. “SJW” is as made up as the Mexicans taking your job. They’re the Jews who are taking all your hard earned money. They don’t exist; they’re a fake existential threat. The only thing that resembles any sort of SJW is simply the…

Did you defend the creative freedom the developers had to change Tracer’s pose? Because they agreed with the criticism.

It’s not censorship. Don’t throw that word around like you know what it means.

This is what people don’t understand; it’s commercial art.

You can’t defend something as art, implying it has value, and then take it all back when a critique isn’t something you like. Seems like you’re trying to have it both way. Not everyone who isn’t you is a troll, and you’ll start living a better life when you get rid of that defense mechanism.

Overwatch isn’t art. It’s not a painting. It’s a commercial product. No one’s bitching and whining. We’re raising a point, and the people who are actually upset (ie you) start switching caps lock to make a point.

Isn’t it slightly ironic that you’re this upset about people being upset? You’re essentially exactly what you hate. No one’s saying they can’t do it, but we’re talking about commercial art. It’s not as if they’re a painter expressing themselves.
