“Caroline Dazey says there are 'little pockets of them in Victoria and we try to keep their location secret to keep them safe’.”

But will she ride on my shoulder and give me bits of sea glass and oddly-shaped leaves as gifts? Asking the real questions here.

Having seen the entire talk - his point is that most video game writing is completely bereft of subtext, meanders pointlessly, and provides no benefit. Then he shows you how to get the immersiveness while also providing subtext, constant forward movement, and usefulness.

The thing is, I bet if someone picked on them for having some physical characteristic that they have, like red hair or something, and they got a ton of messages telling them to kill themselves, they’d be the first ones crying foul.
edit: i love red hair so I obviously wouldn’t do that

He has a youtube channel evidently, it would be just AWFUL if he got all of his content demonetized and removed.

That fact that this guy cannot - or chooses not to - make a simple distinction between hate crime and playful immaturity belies quite the lack of intelligence on his part. I’m sure he’ll go far in this world.

“It was just a late night of having fun and after the first encounter (seen on my channel) we felt it would be fun to offend them somehow,”

His own boss as in unemployed. We might be able to show his mom though. 

One of those players, NathanTheHicc, told Eurogamer that he doesn’t regret role-playing a hate crime in the game and wouldn’t apologize if given the chance. “It was just a late night of having fun and after the first encounter (seen on my channel) we felt it would be fun to offend them somehow,” he said. “You can…

I think a fun bit of playful immaturity would be finding out who NathanTheHicc is, and letting his boss know how ‘immature’ he is. Or if he’s his own boss, letting the world know how ‘immature’ he is.

Rorschach doesn’t kill innocents, but that’s a pretty low bar for not being a horrible human being. That being said though, he was right. Veidt was an even worse monster and the chance to build a utopia wasn’t worth all the deaths he caused.

And I think Moore is sympathetic to the heroic impulse even in Watchmen — Dreiberg is a schlub but he and Rorschach are shown to be a pretty good team back in the 70s (their yin and yang complementing each other). And Nite Owl and Sally Jupiter’s rescue of people in the burning building is straight-up heroism that…

I wouldn’t really call Rorschach evil. He’s insane with a code. He doesn’t kill innocents.

I agree with your second paragraph, but Veidt’s scheme wasn’t about people wanting to fight Dr. Manhattan or surrender, it was about him never being able to blend in or be around anybody on earth since they all think he is the monster behind all the troubles. He already had one foot out the door, but by pinning the…

What does it say about me that I’m perfectly willing to accept real-life videogame fights and superpowered vegans, but I can’t suspend my disbelief enough to believe that multiple beautiful women would be throwing themselves at Michael Fucking Cera?

Despite its flaws I genuinely enjoy this movie. I watched it recently in preparation for this article and it still hold up for the most part.

What’s up jerks! 

Sorry, but Alex doesn’t have the right to be “bothered”. He works maybe two days a week taping the show, and basically just stands there; anyone could do what he does. He now makes $10M per year, and is personally worth over $50M.

I was the kind of contestant he didn’t like. I tried out for High School week when I was a high school senior. All weekend teens were herded into a comedy club on the 5th floor of the Mall Of America in groups of around 100 for written tests. Awaiting my session people around me theorized that he lived with his mom.…
