“Cancel culture” is more like just a new way of saying that you’re boycotting something or someone. Just like boycotts though, “canceling” and calling for other to do the same generally doesnt amount to much.

I’m sorry, but as sad as this news is, what is sadder is the too blunt and heartless sounding headline of this very article.

That is probably the double edged sword of trying to be SUPER diverse and inclusive. You start getting to the macro levels of certain identities all wanting to now be included. Like “Hey you included this this that and that, but what about ME?”
Just like the guy said in the article, there’s no possible way for them to…

Right? Like, I’m from an Italian lineage, and so aside from Mario, I dont feel awkward playing non-italian characters in games. Oh sure, it’s probably because Italians get lumped in with the rest of white characters in fiction, like “Eh, you got all these people from European descent, it’s all the same”. Thats almost…

“I would hate for the diversity to ever feel pandering, like we just had this spreadsheet with a bunch of checkboxes.”

Um... I feel that like half the characters in Overwatch are there JUST to pander.
I’m all for inclusivity, but when the developers have to come out and say that a particular character is gay when…

I swear, people who swat others really need some heavy consequences for doing that. That shit is dangerous and it HAS got people killed. Innocent people.

If you swat people, you are the scum of the earth.

There was one cosplayer marked as “Batwoman” by Zoevolf but it was clearly Dark Phoenix (Jean Grey). Probably a mis-print by Minerablu but just wanted to clarify that.

Final Fantasy VI is my favorite FF game of all time. I remember fondly getting that game when it first came out and yeah, I remember it being STUPIDLY expensive! Even many years later when I started working at video game stores and when people started complaining about the “standard” price of games jumping from $49.99…

I cant speak for everyone, but from what I’ve witnessed, most Chinese or African-americans wont care if you are Sub-zero or Spawn.

If she had done the character as a “white” version, she would have been lambasted as “whitewashing”.

Here here! I’m with you, sir! Give me them bright-red sugar-juice cherries! The only thing when people say “Pretty please with a cherry on top!” they are referring to them bright red maraschino cherries, and nothing else! LOL

Are you like me when you eat Runts and save the banana ones for last because they are the best??

No, just me huh? LOL

Sugar, water, and purple! Thats the ingredients for Grape Drink! LOL

Hmmm... 2:5 scale... Like about how big would that actually be in centimeters? Or, like how big would say, the Playstation one be compared to the >cough<failed>cough< Playstation Mini??

Sad that their newborn Supercharger was brought into this world with such a horrible handicap... to be used in a Mustang of all places!!

Sad, sad day. 

My sincerest condolences. Pets are hard to say goodbye to. There’s that pervasive mentality some have of “oh its just an animal”, but when they touch your life as much as they do, they really are a member of your family. I’ve lost too many pets through my life, and I remember them all fondly, but I miss each and every…

I think the crap about being booted for what the people in your chat says is pretty messed up. Like really, the idea is that you’re supposed to be on Twitch to play a game. Hard enough to play a game AND moderate your own chatroom. These people have to HIRE moderators for their own room? (or at least have a friend do…

I beg to differ. Aside from the ray-tracing part, have you seen the animation quality and capability in upcoming games like Last of Us 2? You have things like facial deformations and extremely high level of detail in the skin shaders and whatnot for close up shots of the character. I mean, sure its impractical to have…

If there was one little teeny thing about the US localization of DBZ, and a lot of anime of that era, is the dumbing down of the episode titles. “Goku’s Ordeal”, I get it, it’s simple and straitfoward.

But often the Japanese episode titles are also just as straitfoward and even better fitting.

In case anybody is…
