who’d have thought a game with 100% deus vult aesthetic and 4% community moderation, on the PC, would attract this crowd.

Funny how it’s almost—almost—exclusively games about Medieval knights who look like Templar/have the whole ‘Deus Vult meme aesthetic’ going on that seem to bring this particular brand of “we’re just bitching about historical purity,” shithead out of the woodwork.

Looks better than I thought, but you can’t avoid that cheap look anytime you take an IP and change its original medium. When you make a cartoon or game live action, it’s damn near impossible for it not to look like cheap cosplay. The best way to go about it is re-imagine the character’s look for live action only. That…

Geralt seems fine to me. Ciri looks meh. Yennefer looks rad as hell.

I guess the hair looks weird, but overall I’m liking it. Extra so that everything seems to be pointing us towards the conclusion it’s a re-telling of the books.

Gotcha.  Thanks!

Last I checked it was 3v3 arena matches. 

Hey yo
You’re part of the problem, right here. I know you’re trying to comment on the game, but you’re doing it at a shitty time and place and totally reinforcing the actual issue. This person is good at lots of games, and would kick both our asses at most to all of them.

Imagined sample from memo draft: “In this tariff war current business climate, we may take a hit from larger tariffs new resource allocations may result in a higher cost for customers. Don’t leave us even though we voted for Trump and therefore this trade war We appreciate your loyalty to Trump and us confidence in…

Even the cabling infrastructure company I work for included a new tab on our P&Ls to customers about the increased cost of tariffs. Nice to know that our CEOs personal income may be hit after he nudged his employees in a letter to go vote for Trump in 2016.

If people don’t want to pay the tariff, they can buy one of the game consoles made right here in America, dammit!

I have actually seen some people apologize for that line of thinking so there is some hope

The “better system” would be actually providing help.

Absolutely agreed.

...I feel like expecting contrition from those folks requires that they possess either the empathy or introspection to realize that their attitudes and words were fucked up—and I imagine we’ll be left wanting.

I doubt very much you’ll hear a word of contrition from most of them.  The type of asshat who feels the need to say, “But he did this before, and he probably just wants attention” lacks both the introspection and empathy necessary to realize that their cruel jibes are part of a culture that exacerbates mental health…

I feel like the people that tried to imply this was a publicity stunt should be ashamed of themselves.

Ugh, that’s so terrible. All those of you who were talking wild about how he was just out for attention, what now? Will you ever give mental health issues the respect they deserve?

My heart goes out to his friends, fans and family.

It’s never ever worth going this far. We need a better system to help those with mental health issues. One of my best friends took their life earlier this year and I’m still fucked up from it. Please never take your own life. You have no idea the impact it will have on the people around you. Get help, reach out. Talk…
