This IS fantastic. And should be the end of discussion for anyone with a modicum of good faith in this discussion. Literally all she had to do was not darken the skin of the suit. Accuracy of depiction is not worth playing around in this gray area. 

Look, I don’t know her, her work, or her views. I’m not going to try and cast any aspersions on any of that. What I can say is that her use of race as a costume is problematic regardless of how she saw it because (A) At this point it’s well understood and respected to cosplay without trying to emulate the skin color…

They most certainly have that right.

I shall invent a device that alerts Dolphins fans when they are being erroneously charged for purchases. It will emit a Dolphin-call shriek if a skimmer is used to rack up a fraudulent charge. I will call it “the Miami Sound Machine.”

A man who explains a characters nakedness as being her skin needs to “breathe” so she had to wear less clothes as possible while having enemy characters covered up better with the same issues doesn’t ring like a person who understands anything about women or that he wants them basically naked without being “creepy”…

A lot of talented people are like that. I’m of the firm belief that every genius in any field needs someone non-genius to tell them “no” on a regular basis as well as the authority to make that “no” stick. Geniuses tend to end up in an echo chamber of their own making, and are unable to see when ideas they have aren’t…

Based on what I saw at PAX West, Death Stranding’s Achilles heel is its focus on babies and women/motherhood. Two topics that Kojima doesn’t have a good track record with. Before anyone says it, he managed it once with The Boss in MGS3, and has failed pretty badly outside of that.

Sounds different and interesting.

Still sounds leaps and bounds better than Rhonda Rousey’s pitiful attempt at Sonya.  Seriously why didn’t Netherrealm pull the plug on that idea while in the recording studio?  It clearly just wasn’t working.

They were being dicks about it when announced. A simple none condescending announcement would of been nice.  

“Gravity is a harness,” Sigma says in the trailer. “I have harnessed the harness.”

As terrible as this is and as terrible as American agencies are behaving, unfortunately these refugees are still better off in these detention centers than where they are fleeing from.

Were you in Fury or Ascent? Just curious as I'm an old Medivh raider too

To be fair if you parellel to a sport-sport, golf does this stuff all the time and no one goes around questioning the prestige of golf.

What do you even imagine this to mean? It’s an entertainment product. Every pro league is fundamentally about marketing.

Someone posted this on twitter. Not sure if this is the same thing you meant, but it’s interesting to read nonetheless.

Correct. Thank you for bringing this up. SH_T HAPPENS.

Context does matter, but you are picking and choosing what context matters to you. As it stands, white people wearing dark makeup to appear black is the continuation of a practice tied to the mocking of black people, and often enslaved Africans, in the US. That’s the context for this. More context for this, which a…

What’s annoying is having a headline saying that cosplayers made it, when in reality that isnt remotely close to being true. A professional design team who makes costumes for tv and movies made it. The fact that they also happen to make stuff for cosplayers, doesnt make them cosplayers.

I work for a major cyber-security distributor and hand-in-hand with a few major cyber-security vendors. The chinese government takes virtually all the data from chinese companies. If you want to believe we live in a nice, decent world, you keep living in that dream, but from a cyber point of view, China is currently a…
