Then relieve yourself good sir and/or madam, regale me with tales of your heroism. I’m asking, so you don’t even need to feel like you’re bragging. Full catharsis, no judgement. 

So you’re telling me that I still have a little bit of time to achieve hero status before I spontaneously desiccate!

I never finished watching Naruto Shippuden back in the day and decided to finally get around to it. At first I was marveling at how they were sending kids on super dangerous top tier missions, and then had a few drinks the other night and needed an entire day to recover and was like shit... ok. Realized that I’m now…

“[Note: I called Cid an “old man” before realizing he’s supposed to be 32, a year older than I am now.]”

This tracks, welcome to old mandom!

The fact that most workers aren’t entitled to the products and services that they help create is one of the biggest failures of humanity. 

Hah, yeah, I get that that can be a bit of a nuisance if you already finished the game, but having a reason to replay a game you must have enjoyed if you’re looking into getting DLC for it is a far cry from having all of your games taken away, eating soap, or being beaten...

Do you actually know anything about his tribe? Do you know anything about what tribe this regalia may supposedly come from? Do you know anything about his parents or the pressures of many Native families to assimilate with the dominant culture by relaxing their own? Or are you jumping to conclusions about things you…

I’m glad I took the time to properly address you as I’ve appreciated this conversation myself. You seem like you’re actually one of the ones that really care and that’s important! Maybe just a little jaded at first, which is understandable, I’m plenty jaded myself, I’m just glad I didn’t let that get in the way of…

Just started a new playthrough of Death Stranding earlier today, I totally forgot just how freaking good that opening is! But I think I’m definitely far more intrigued about what this is than Death Stranding 2 right now, not that I’m not still curious about DS2.

Yes, as I recall he’s always had a fascination with Hollywood, and dreamed of being a film maker when he was young. Working in the Japanese video game industry in the 80's, that likely seemed impossible. Now here he is working with Hollywood A listers on games that bridge the gap to films. A lot of people give him…

But see, now you’re jumping to conclusions without learning the facts first. His grandfather is a tribal council member for the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians. Somehow the link I copy pasted up there got forked up, it should be: deadspin.com/roger-goodell-kansas-city-chiefs-fan-black-face-native-1851048905 (that…

I’m curious, what were their opinions that you’ve found to be wildly different? 

You’re obviously not actually interested but I’ll elaborate for you anyway. My mother was Mestizo, predominantly Coahuiltecan, also a small bit of Mayan. As far as what band of Coahuiltecan, I couldn’t tell you because our culture was utterly decimated. First through Spanish enslavement, rape, and disease, then…

Unfortunately, people largely just want to be angry and feel superior.

Deadspin, Kotaku’s sister site, just put out this article recently:

Dude, the very first sentence of this thread brought up the issue of black face: “Americans use the terms “cultural appropriation” and even “black face” so incorrectly they’ve completely lost all meaning.” After that somebody responded to them saying, “I’m a little confused about “black face”” After all of that…

To be fair, while I’m not sure what PC launch Skyrim was like, if anybody could enlighten me that’d be cool, but I should hope that the hardware necessary to run Starfield now would be considered closer to a potato in 10 years, and Skyrim wasn’t on constant sale immediately after launching.

Fair point, “indirectly leading to” would have been a more accurate choice of words on my part. But we still don’t have any evidence of even an indirect correlation other than if you squint real hard it’s sort of similarish kinda maybe. It’d be one thing if Miyamoto, Aounuma, or Fujibayashi had come out and said, “you…

“there is a design influence within Nintendo that looks at both of these potential mechanics and, independently, says “yes, this is an interesting way to allow the player to interact with the world and players will like it”.”

Yes, you’re probably right, but that means ALBW didn’t pave the way for TotK any more than any…
