I'm not telling people what they should and shouldn't do, I'm trying to explain that the word "rape" is just a word. You alone give power to words. The word "rape" is not taboo or evil. It is a name for an act, an act that at it's base is simply another form of force. Initiating force is evil. Rape is an arbitrary…

Didn't I just respond to it? "And yet how many are false accusations? Or are just bullshit cases caused by some of the numerous shit laws in America?"

What the fuck is this about Halo 4 looking like the same old shit? This is a massive departure from what we usually see! If you've actually played the series, experienced it and know the lore, this is pretty drastically different from what we've seen before. It's closest to something like Halo CE, and even still it's…

And yet how many are false accusations? Or are just bullshit cases caused by some of the numerous shit laws in America?

The Dark Knight is over the top action?

You seem to be assuming members of my family have been raped (and only the females, which is indicative of a certain amount of ignorance concerning rape against men, although perhaps I am to blame for that as in my original post I only mention the amount of women I know claiming to be raped and not the amount of men,…

The problem that is found is where the definition of "rape" actually comes into play. Not all studies share the same interpretation or are exactly as strict with their vocabulary. Some define sex while one member is intoxicated as rape. Others allow the distinction between "I wanted it then but now I don't after the…

Citation needed bro. Everything I've ever seen shows that rape has been statistically decreasing since the 1980s (at least in the US, where I live and all). Violent crime in general has all been going down actually.

Depends on if I'm voluntarily down. Or if they are I guess.

Meh, some people just try too hard to be offended. I say give them what they seem to want. Offend everybody. Who gives a shit? Anybody who would get butthurt over trivial words isn't someone you'd want to associate anyway. I know I wouldn't.

Indeed.

Did I just watch a snuff film?

Jesus, the voice actress sounds really fucking wasted, but only when she does the Engrish lines.

It's not because they were unfairly treated by the gaming public, but rather it was all because of their bad business decisions. That's really it here. Kingdoms of Amalur was a fairly good game in my opinion, but it's 38 Studios fucked up by taking tax cuts and loans that they couldn't pay back from the state. The…

I'd like to interject right here. See, yes, mindless praise doesn't get things improved. Constructive criticism does. But let us take note of the fact that it is constructive criticism that gets these kinds of things done by Bethesda with Skyrim. People voice their demand for a new feature and Bethesda brings it. That…

Perfect! Write that shit up BioWare (and make the game play like DA:O) and you've got your Dragon Age III!

I've always been really partial to seeing the return of Tevinter. I can only imagine how badass that would be. Crazy-powerful bloodmages turning enemies against each other, sending squads of golems out to destroy their foes. I'd love for them to incorporate a new rise of the Imperium into the mage-templar war. You'd…

I thought the idea of magic-users being subjugated by the religious government to be pretty interesting actually. In most fantasy stories mages are either handled more like they're Jedi, or they're just the outright leaders of the world. Dragon Age turns them into pariah-like, second class citizens (same with the…

People are just too damn sensitive. It's only a goofy game. Don't worry about it.

No, another Blight or anything really major dealing with the Darkspawn is unnecessary. The world of Dragon Age is much more diverse than to just have one big, overarching threat. This is one regard that DA should take notes from The Elder Scrolls. The world is big and needs to feel diverse and dynamic. Showing it…
