Can we stop blaming mobile and start blaming freemium? Can we stop pretending those two things have to be synonymous? Some of the straight up best gaming experiences I’ve ever had were mobile games. Quite frankly, Chaos Rings 2 blows either of the last two Star Ocean games out of the water for me, so I’m tired of

Ummm, freemium or gacha games maybe. Actual video games on mobile need no apologists.

That is not the bad kind of mobile game. That’s just letting you play the start of a game for free.

Because it isn’t a MOD. It’s a PATCH. That’s the difference. Even if the patch has to be acquired illicitly, you’re still restoring the content that the developers of the game in question made. It’s NOT the same as a third party creating their OWN content and modifying the game. Pretending those aren’t the same

That’s a false equivalent though because those games weren’t originally made that way and Nekopara WAS. They edited OUT the content that’s in every other version of the game on Steam. If Skyrim or The Witcher 3 had content edited out of it that was easily patched back in, then it would be the same thing.

Yo, this is really something you need to be more realistic about if you want to make your case seriously. EVERYONE on both sides of this issue knows it takes VERY minimal effort (less than five minutes maybe) to get those sex scenes put back in. The same is true of nearly EVERY game with censored content on Steam.

Dude, you straight up can’t (or I guess shouldn’t? You clearly can because you did) come out here complaining about the immaturity of Deadpool, then turn around and call Kick-Ass subversive.

I don’t know if I really understand the issue with him being on Arrested Development. If someone commits sexual harrassment at a workplace and gets fired for it, they aren’t precluded from getting another job or, in this case, working a second job they already have.

Yup! Don’t forget that the same free speech they use to be assholes, you get to use to tell them to go eat cardboard and stare at the sun.

A broken tooth is worse than a stubbed toe, doesn’t mean I have to be okay with either one.

Yo, then those conservatives need to be WAY LOUDER. I’d love to see politics get back to being about HOW the country is run instead of what stance people take on social issues.

I kept trying to think of something sarcastic to say, but the negative responses just make me regular mad. Good on her for handling this kind of stupidity gracefully.

Dude, really? If you think that system doesn’t do you more good than harm.... I can tell you I’m going to pay more attention to “mostly positive” than “70%”

Ummm did that come across sincere to you? He opens up by blaming “unfair negative reviews”, and says “Oh I did this, oh the company is innocent, don’t punish them for my screw up.” But he’s basically trying to escape punishment himself, because if the games get to make money, he gets to make money.

They’re being kind of cagey about this... Maybe the marketing has been a mislead and it only starts 12 years before the first game before going through a time skip and picking up some time after it?

Those... aren’t contradictory statements?

Getting a good laugh at all of the people in the comments going “ew, mobile.” I’m over here knowing what’s what going “ew, free”. Plenty of great ‘real’ gaming experiences on mobile, they just cost money.

Mmmm Jocks PLAY sports though. Fantasy Football nerds aren’t Jocks, they’re just nerds who think their nerdiness being about sports MAKES them Jocks.

Nnnnno, his actions are part of the ONLY sequence of events that will lead to victory. So.... yeah.

Nice hot take. Only problem is, according to the movie itself, you’re wrong? 14 million some odd versions of these events always end in failure, and a series of events where Peter pisses Thanos off and spoils their current attempt is not one of them.
