Huh? She has all those things. More so than previous protagonists even. Last time i checked there wasn’t any massive character growth for the protagonist of the original trilogy and the less we say about the prequels the better

Which is why, as the article says, there's two movies at different points of the time line 

Ray isn't even a Mary sue, that's something thw misogynists dreamt up whole cloth. Shes a capable person who literally has to learn how to use a lighsaber instead of a staff and knows how to do like 3 things iverall, shes just strong at the force. She'd be a Mary sue if everyone liked her immediately and everything…

I mean sexism be wild, that's no surprise 

This is the least sexualised thing ive seen in my life. They are literally just sitting normally on a sofa, no sexy poses no nothing, and playing videogames. That segment of tbe audience must be REALLY undeserved if two dudes sitting unsexily and playing videogames is what gets em going

I think you are thinking of reagan there. Not that im excusing bush, but everything points back to reagan

You are confusing the concept of taking power over from a corporation in general vs taking power from a corporation to make things worse because you are a massive asshole

We aren’t calling banning books in schools fascistic, we are calling the way, reasoning and scope with which its done in this case, along with the sheer volume and what topics and people it targets fascistic

No it would prove the state is not yet entirely fascistic, not that the fascists aren’t fascists

“Republicans appointed a new board to oversee the district and Disney, suggesting they would even have input on what entertainment the company would create”

Meh. For the companies that wanted it to be that way, e3 was already the same as the situation described in the second half of the article. Everyone remembers a room full of astroturfed fans and journalists going absolutely wild for a game no one gave a shit about, and companies were already inviting influencers and…

Bleem won, sony just simply said to all distributors "you either carry our games or bleem, choose" and that's how it died. They can't do this now 

I’d like to remind everyone that emulators are 100% perfectly legal (unless if they are using copyrighted code but thats for every program). This was actually decided in the courts in the 90s when a couple of emulators were doing the rounds on retail stores. Its the same way gamesharks are legal, as long as you are…

Words do change meanings and thats normal, but as a translator whose studies include linguistics id argue TERMS shouldn't change meaning. Asshole morphing from a description to a body part to an insult makes sense and is natural progression of language, but a technical term like beta morphing into early access means…

The thing that always gets me about drugged drinks is how, well, not seriously its taken. Its usually concidered less egregious than gripping and other forks of sexual assault if the person who attempted to drug someone didn’t end up doing anything else (usually because it didn’t work).

When? More like IF

I mean this IS the danger of early access stuff. Ppl play your game during that period, slowly drift away because it needs work and when it realises they feel they already played it so why bother, or have generally moved on to different things 

It is a very real business model, just with a corresponding budget and future plans that correspond to the playerbase. Most ppl who do this shit want a niche playerbase and also ALL OF THE MONEY. Which isn’t how it works

As a translatior, i feel like the game industry has entire lost touch with what “localisation” and “translation” mean

You are conceptualising the problem wrong. Its not horniness. Its misogyny that’s the problem. Its treating female characters through design language as outsiders that exist solely to provide eye candy rather than full characters with design language to convey strength etc. The solution isn’t to design the men the…
