This is a serious question here: at what point are we getting so concerned at the possible racist comparison of black people and monkeys, that the stereotype is getting perpetuated by trying to attack it?

If the animal was like similar to a tiger, so Ash had orange makeup, would that be okay? What about if he was…

Wow. I feel like her comment was tame, and what a childish, inhumane response form the community. I can’t believe how these echo chambers form into such nasty environments.

Cereal is terrible for you, milk isn’t great either, and I barely have time for breakfast, tbh. I know a few parents that are smart enough to not give their kids sugar carbs in milk, also, so the consumer base is dwindling on both ends. 

“You want a better hill to die on? Focus on the Epic-PlayStation account locks. Something which actually is flagrantly anti-consumer.”

Why can’t my lootbox unlocks in Overwatch carry over to PS4?

As you said with cross-play, it would be nice if everything worked on everything. Nintendo has been reselling games for…

#5 is hilarious as that’s only one game, and Microsoft pulls shady wording on exclusivity at every single E3.

Asking for something that competitors are doing is one thing. Continuously harping on about it, saying Sony is now ‘anti-consumer’, and even some reputable outlets crying out the downfall of the PS5's launch because of this one single feature is another tiring thing altogether.

I get that players want to carry stuff…

“Now THIS is America.”

Somebody make that a meme with Anakin, I have to talent.

I haven’t seen this movie since I was a kid, but I nearly wore out the VHS tape rewatching it then, I’m sure. I can’t say for certain why I liked it so much. Maybe it was the meteor scene, it fusing with his back in that 80's 90's style SFX style, his powers awakening in the hospital, or just that sense of a community…

After reading a bunch of the replies, I want to add that while I don’t want to pile onto the disagreements to just appear as though I’m saying “what you want isn’t a vaild request” kind of thing, I have to wonder if the converse were more prevalent, how would that be viewed?

If LGBT characters were just happy and…

Whoa, fetishization? I certainly hope not...

Unless that word is being misused. 

Videogames generally involve as little confrontation as possible, and hopefully as little conflict-induced character development, too.

Kidding, of course! Not to make light of something if a group genuinely desires it in their representation. But aren’t most games grimdark, and have been for some time? (In fact, one of…

I haven’t seen it in a few years, so... why is it so bad?

Wow, I can’t believe how many likes that comment got...

We have to defend the agency of fictional characters now?

And if you’re a Japanese developer creating games in a market that does not have the same cultural sensibilities, can you expect Western audiences to understand that?

Of course, maybe he was being completely genuine. We don’t really know, no matter how it looks to us. And I’m not saying one way or another on the issue…

They can’t say that to a western reporter, though. That should be obvious.

I think it’s quite evident what can happen to some if they “own it”.

In all seriousness, if so many games are moving in the direction you are excited for, must the existing games that don’t fit with what you expect no longer be released?

My point is, if this type of titillation exists in all other forms of media, do you expect it to be erased from videogames completely?

Of course, as a…

She sounds it out with ‘it’ in the middle, but then says the whole name with ‘eet’ so idk.

Crystal Shards played with the d-pad? I don’t remember. I liked the game a lot though, the combo mechanic was really cool. I only ever rented the game, however, never actually owned it.

Oh deer lord.
