“Sorry that there wasn’t enough sex or comedy to keep you entertained in the middle of an island’s brutal subjugation at the hands of the Mongols.” oh right sure, no one is ever happy during war, it’s all just doom and gloom 24/7, no one’s trying to make light of the situation lmao.

Yeh, my understanding is that slut-shaming is like... calling a woman a slut / saying she has less “value” because she chooses to flaunt / use her sexuality in a way that someone finds objectionable. I don’t think it’s “slut-shaming” Quiet to say that the disembodied camera bouncing between her taint and her boobs is…

While sloppily handled I thought she was a commentary on sex object characters. These characters exist all throughout anime or comic-based media and nobody bats an eye. Does Black Widow have a personality in Avengers? Does her falling in love with Hulk or being said about being unable to have children count as…

I have always taken issue with the discourse around Quiet which always just sounded to me like slut-shaming.

slut shaming is something done to actual women, not oversexualized female characters made by and for men. criticizing quiet’s design is criticizing the men who made her, not quiet herself

yes

unfairly assumed? That was hype brought on by the publishers themselves.

I mean, I played on Series X and it was just okay, felt like Fallout 4. No real consequences, choices had little to no actual weight, gameplay was okay, nothing special, serviceable enough I guess.

I love Elite Dangerous and still play it, but we’re not really in a great position to be casting stones or pointing fingers, man.

Have to agree... I wanted this flight model used in game more like the classic Privateer with focused missions / story or even the relatively new Rebel Galaxy Outlaw. Elite has a really nice engine stuck in a criminally boring game.

I play it almost every day. The new patch introduced some interesting new mechanics. My org enjoys the game and playing with each other. There are a lot of people just like me. I'm sorry you don't enjoy it too.

Nah, I’ve never thought about actually playing. Part of the reason I enjoy it so much is the whole mystery surrounding it. Ignorance is bliss and all that.

Meanwhile I don’t even read the quest text in MMOs outside of FFXIV and ESO. It’s about socializing, creating my own memories, and making the numbers go up.

I admire the eve online community from afar. Their activities lead to unscripted stories being told. There are few other games worthy of bardic regaling, like Eve.

So, despite saying it for years, Epic has decided not to make StW free-to-play after all? I guess they’re...hurting for cash, or something?

I got that, too. Super effing annoying.

I really want a new Stronghold.

Either I am still way too much addicted to RimWorld, But the chores/Job chart at 0:50 in the video reminds me of the same mechanics as RimWorld

First impressions feels very...Dwarf Fortress esque...except medieval and 3D voxel...

I truly don’t give a fuck about this but I did read the Elektra one and it specifically stated that, without gluing the leg pieces on, they fall down all the time. The dangly bits get caught on everything and the head piece slides down as well.
