*when the media started paying attention to epidemic of police violence,

Yeah, why do people care that a caster for one of the world’s most popular esports was publicly fired by Gabe Newell - President, CEO, and billionaire of one of the most important gaming companies on the planet? I can’t believe a videogame news website is even reporting this.

This is why I’m not their audience... I remember Full House. I watched Full House. I have no interest in rewatching any house. I have my own, which requires cleaning and fixing and other things that are old.

As someone who hasn’t played this game.... There more to the game than meme-bait dialogue like this, right? Or is that the core appeal?

Becase Pwed’s only real joke is screaming really loud.

That’s not Pewdiepie. He’s not screaming “rape” enough for it to be him.

Gamers: “Wah, game devs don’t take risks”

This is the world you live in now dude. It’s PC and hyper-sensitive.

Someone should go make the Mona Lisa portrait into a guy so we can get some neutrality round here amiright

I don’t know, it’s just way to PC and nonsensical. What’s wrong with playing a character of the opposite sex? I don’t play Tomb Raider and think, man why am I a chick, I’m engage by the idea of playing the role of another character. So I mean why change it?

It’s cool how he can hack a game and all, but...I dunno, this seems pretty pointless? Unless you’re heavily invested into gender politics I guess. In games that have barely any story, like the pre-OoT Zelda games, it’s easy to ignore the story outside of go here, do a thing, go somewhere else to do another thing.

Ok I’m a man and here is my list of favorite games: -Zelda, Mario, perfect dark, metroid, beyond good and evil. At no point in my life, I ever thought that I would like to change the protagonist of a game because it was a female. I seriously think that the only problem here are the people who get so worked up over…

No one said anything about not being nice to children.

if u cant handle link being a boy, u cant handle much if anything.

Not trying to be mean but why? Link is a character with a definite background, other wise he wouldn’t be referred to as son. Why not let your daughter enjoy the game the way it was meant to be played.

its the same as taking a paint brush and walking up to mona lisa and deciding mona lisa needs a mustache and a brow piercing, its just desecrating someone’s work of art.

I honestly don’t see the point in exercises like this. Not every story has to be tailored to fit the player.

Sigh.

Plenty of people seem to be having no trouble doing exactly that. What a douchey comment.

I know right? People should take racism and just eat it by the spoonful and ask for seconds.
