It’s worth mentioning that the mechanic that can potentially induce a seizure is specifically based off a diagnostic tool meant to cause seizures. You also cannot avoid this mechanic; it’s required to complete the game.

If you want your reviewers to clap like a seal because the game looks and feels expensive, IGN.com is right there.

Lots of entitled ableists around here, huh?

Why can’t it be both? Why can’t a corporation do something because it’s financially or legally advantageous AND because it actually affects people?

What dialect of English do you speak, where the most important definition of blind is something other than “unable to see because of disease or injury?" Sounds fascinating!

In case someone decides to care... like AbleGamers? aka people who are differently abled? No need to lose your shit over it, just choose different words. Obviously differently abled folks /are/ asking for this change. You don’t have to like it, but jeez... just furrow your brow and move on.

Yeah, I’m not political at all, I just like paintings.

He’s in hell and doing okay according to Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell, the best show ever.

Some of the issues here have to do with Blizzard being stuck with an old IP that made some very unfortunate, problematic decisions early on, and not being interested in making necessary sweeping changes to their lore.

“Sorry I don’t have a moral calculator, but since she donated so much she lost her billionaire status because of it, I’m guessing her charity’s done a lot of good.”

Yep and still seems shocked that I ended it after he essentially supported slavery given the expressed belief that it’s fine to do whatever you like to someone if you pay enough money...

I’m pretty comfortable in saying that being a hateful transphobe makes you a bad person. I don’t care how rich you are or how many dollars you donate to charity. it won’t make up for the hate that she spreads.

“It’s perfectly fine to be a hateful bigot actively spreading misinformation that endangers trans men and women, as long as you dole out that charitable cash”

So no one should have dignity or principles because they are subjective concepts? 

Clearly Dino Ironbody thinks that the only way to live a moral life is through the buying of indulgences like a goddamn 15th Century nobleman.

Doesn’t matter, you’ve now admitted that you believe there is some level of money that could be offered at which it’s ok to strip someone of their basic rights, deny them personhood, and/or physically abuse them which essentially amounts to bartering in human life in which case your views on morality and ethics are…

It financially rewards her, keeps her prominence in the public sphere, and sends the message that such abhorrent views and policies are ok to campaign for with no repercussions because other people will be happy to be associated with you.
