Ugh... not this again..

what, men are literally always objectified in video games, it’s common place. Just no one cares. In almost every single modern game in existence is an objectified male, including this game franchise.

They do objectify men in games, you just don’t count it as objectification because you have different standards. A woman dressed in very little like Ivy is objectification, but a man dressed in very little isn’t? Why aren’t they both considered objectification?

The fact of the matter is, perception is skewed so people…

They do though. Remember all those articles praising sexy Ryu even on here?

Well, just like with BF5, these folks choose to go for this direction. Nothing wrong with it. The guys are bare chested too and all that.

That jingoistic attitude is what generally keeps me away from Twitch entirely. So many people treat it with almost a cult-like reverence. This company is owned by Amazon, one of the largest and most profitable corporations on the planet. You guys aren’t the upstart challenging the man. You are the man, and everyone…

If everything has politics, then what makes these developers disingenuous, but the makers of your Kit-Kat sincere? Or are they disingenuous as well?

There was also an uptick in the post-apocalyptic genre when Fallout 3 came out in 2008 when Obama became president. What is your explanation for that?

I don’t ask those questions because, unless they give me a reason to think otherwise, I presume people have good intentions.

More like representative of what sells. Its like saying the rise of Royale Modes is representative of people wanting to go out and shoot all of their neighbors for some KFC... ... The division 2 is a “realistic” loot and shoot that requires suspension of disbelief to exist in the first place. Using a well known/famous…

Where are these big sweeping statements coming from? “Releasing a game is not an apolitical act.” Says who? I come up with a checkers and start selling it, what are the politics of that?

Saying all creative works are political is like saying all plumbing jobs are political.

There’s a difference between deliberate political intent and applying your views onto what they’ve done.

Where are you getting the idea that Games as a Service is mutually exclusive to the loot crate model? They’ll have micro-transactions in addition to being a monthly subscription.

I don’t get the mindset. If I ran into issues building a level in Super Mario Maker, I rebuilt the idea or compromised on the design, because pre-built design tools have limitations.

“They did remove Steam Greenlight afterall”

Not a fan of deriding someone who makes purchase decisions on price per hour. If you don’t have much money to spare it’s a very valid way of determining what will give you the longest entertainment before you have to spend more.

I respect Bithell’s opinion, honestly. I hope he has great success in his life as a dev.

Other commentors on this site said you guys have a weird obsession with Musk. I brushed it off because this is a Car/Vehicle blog and he is definitely automotive related news. But I have to say, I agree now. This is just next level creepy take on someones personal life that has nothing to do with the advancement of…

Oh they won’t ban The Witcher.
