No, it’s not. Dancers aren’t the issue. Dancers there that are geared toward arousing heterosexual males at an event unrelated to that end is the problem. Keep the dancers but give them outfits that reflect the fun of the event rather than give dudes boners. If this was an adult-game party and there were provocative…

I'm perfectly calm, thanks, but good attempt at shifting the focus of the discussion.

Yes, people treat this like it’s already the only and most popular way to distribute games, which it isn’t. And sure, developers could sell their games through UWP for things like cross-buy and cross-play, but they could also continue distributing their games through Steam. It’s not as if Microsoft is making…

Nothing stopping them? Except for how horrible it would impact business when tons of developers stop developing for them and find a way around it? It would be a PR nightmare, and I guarantee you tons of 3rd party developers would end up boycotting Microsoft altogether, both PC and Xbox. Realistically, it’s a bad…

Except there’s no evidence Microsoft plans on limiting access to those tools to people who release their games through UWM, so the whole thing is based on paranoid speculation.

Can someone explain how this is a “monopoly” of any kind? How does this prevent people from releasing on Steam instead? Or some other PC service. It’s pretty ironic when Epic has one themselves that’s required for their own games. Someone was looking for a fight and Epic looks worse because of it.

I have a feeling if the style was less cartoony that people would’ve been more receptive.

Absolutely. I also think it comes from a place of defensiveness. The term makes some white people feel like they’re under attack, when the problem isn’t really the privilege white people have but rather the lack of privilege non-white people have. It sounds like splitting hairs, but it’s a lot easier for some people…

It seems more logical that the “rainbow” would be referring to the colors of the games and not the color of legendaries.

Pokemon has never rushed out for the new system and has always gone where the audience is. It's why Pokemon Yellow only had real color on the title screen, or why Black 2/White 2 was a DS game, rather than a 3DS game.

I’m just impressed they stayed on the burger.

Not sure why you think Rainbow is a logical third title to X and Y. To me, Rainbow sounds like something that would include all regions.

I think a good way of recognizing difficulties in translation and localization is to think of two things and how should you translate them.

Yes, but none of the others have said they’ll bomb the Middle East for oil. None of the others are dumb enough to think they will make Mexico pay for a gigantic wall. None of the others kept a copy of Hitler’s speeches next to his bed. None of the others want to make Muslims carry around identification cards, and when…

Look into Trump even a little, even just listen to the things he says. If he’s not evil, nobody is.

Here’s the thing: he did this, first and foremost, for his daughter. It’s hard enough to get some young girls into gaming, let alone retro gaming, especially since most old games didn’t have girls as playable characters. Perhaps you don’t have kids, but it’s a lot easier to get them into it if they can be someone…

You clearly don’t have kids. My best friend has a four year old daughter and when she came over to my house, she plays a Mario Maker level I made for her. It’s extremely easy and just makes her learn how to move and jump at the same time. But it also makes her Palutena, and when she turns into a girl she gets really…

Because there aren’t a lot of classic games that allow you to be a female protagonist, which is something that definitely appeals to young girls, as I’ve seen from my friend’s daughter. When she got to play as a girl (using amiibo costumes) in Mario Maker, she got really excited. This is just letting more young…

It’s a text hack available to anyone. It’s not like he’s destroyed the original game in any way. He literally changed pronouns. In fact, even with the new pronouns it could still be understood as male. The original game is untouched, and this is just a slightly different way to experience it. It’s no different than…

Thanatos is the Greek word for death. I think you mean Thanos.
