How do you practice consent in an online role-playing game? Game designer Raph Koster published a fascinating blog post yesterday about how players in MMOs now have tons of agency over their characters’ actions (“/bite”), but others can’t control what is done to them (have you ever seen “/accept”?).

EEEEEEEEw barf. They’re using that fugly ass art style that they used in Adventure of Mana only slightly upgraded. Whoi decided that shit looks good? It didn’t look good in the DS FF4 remake, it sure s hell didn’t look good in Adventure of Mana, so what fool decided it looked good here? Hell even the IOS SoM version…
Yes! I’m not alone!
To this day, whenever I see the protagonist of Lone Survivor, I don’t see the surgical mask. I see a big, cheese-eating grin and I think “he can’t be having that bad a time, look at how happy he is!”
it takes 30 seconds to google that this game had no season pass. The lazyness is astonishing
You’d like to think that, but no. It’s not just a bunch of kids who don’t know better yet. It’s an endemic problem to a heteronormative, racist, misogynist white patriarchy. It’s not a few bad apples spoiling the barrel. The orchard is rotten.
I can’t follow what you’re actually replying to (in all caps no less) thanks to kinja. He definitely drew from the evo-psycho handbook though and tried to imply women were bad at stress lol. Like we don’t put up with stress all the damn time. He ABSOLUTELY implied men are better at certain jobs (his) because of derp…
Ya know, most people woulda just gone with ‘Ohh.. I’m being trolled. ...Damn it.’ But I do appreciate you going those lengths to communicate your frustration with not being taken seriously. It’s more satisfying. Most people wouldn’t have preferred to deny me that satisfaction by ending the conversation when they…
He didn’t cite any of his sources and relied on evo-psychology bullshit that has been thoroughly debunked by real, peer reviewed science.
3/4 of his hypothesis was wrong according to proven science.
For comical effect, you ironically told the ‘woe-some’ story of ‘The poor white men, who will be victims of racism’ if women get jobs. It’s a pretty common comical vehicle in comment threads. You know like when someone pastes the ‘Won’t somebody please think of the children!?’ image meme from The Simpsons. They…
*when they fired the guy for his inappropriate behaviour, and then credulous people thought this proved his rantings right.
That’s a great joke! Do you tell it at parties? :)
Oh pay this manchild no mind, he’s just pissed because there happens to be some legacy heroes who happen to be women or minorities. The truth of the matter is that the concept of legacy heroes, in which a new character assumes the identity of an already established hero, has existed since the Silver Age of comics when…
I don’t know what you are smoking but i want to try it out
Yeah a game where you jump in a barrel and the game plays it’s self for 10 seconds. Really great level design.
I hate the word! But yeah, dismissive? Sure. Vague box, likely android console, just read that they plan on crowdfunding it. Hitting all the wrong switches for me.
Wood finish for sure!
Yes, by staying silent, you are helping a bully/harasser accomplish their goal.
