I know this is a hot take, but why can’t we have titty in games while also treating female employees with respect? Being more inclusive of women in game design and development would probably reduce the objectification of women just by natural evolution.

Art can’t be sexual in nature? Who the hell are you to determine what is and isn’t acceptable?

Man, if this isn’t some virtue signaling bullshit...

So they’re going the demonize the body and demonize sexuality route. Sexuality is not objectification, and acting like an ally of the would-be ‘80s and ‘90s theocratic movement isn’t “progressive.” Sexual jokes and innuendo aren’t bad on thier own. Making a tongue in cheek pun about testicles isn’t terrible, nor would…

Should have punished them and made them use kinja.

LeVar was pretty mid as a host though. That only became even clearer when David Faber showed up right after him and absolutely killed it. LeVar wasn’t Dr. Oz or Bill Whitaker bad, but he was only good for those that think he is Jesus reborn.

Absolutely love Levar Burton.  He would be a terrible Jeopardy host.

She sounds awful, and most of that stuff would cause me to not want to watch her in anything.

But I don’t understand why the vaccination stuff always leads these articles about her except that its attention grabbing given the state of the world. “She once had a frivolous view of vaccines but changed her mind.” Why is…

I don’t know why Levar seems to be the internet’s fav choice for host. He’s a cool guy but I thought he fumbled things wayyy more than the other guest hosts.

It’s all fandoms once they reach a certain level. Or are we going to forget sports? Also, it’s RIFE within professionals. From music, collegiate anything including teaching to engineering, I’ve seen it all.

Once the article told you what to expect your brain was primed to interpret the phenomes that way, though.  Like the famous experiment where if they show someone saying an ambiguous sound, some people hear “bah bah bah” some people hear “daa daa daa”, but if you TELL them it’s one or the other, almost 100% of the test…

“Don’t define me by my trauma!” They insist, as they define themselves by their trauma.  

Online journalism is responsible for this. It’s a double edged sword because reporting on these events obviously helps bring awareness to the issue, so companies and perpetrators can be put on the spot to take accountability for what’s going on. Yet, it seems like the only time women are talked about is when they’re…

There are not 9 million consoles sitting in some scalper’s basement. I think seeing the numbers would be interesting for sure, but I highly doubt that even 1 million were scalped. I could be wrong of course, but that’s just such a huge number that it doesn’t seem feasible. 

I love articles like this mainly because I wish I could go back in time to 2010 and laugh at everyone saying the days of home console gaming were over and mobile was going to rule the world. 

This. I have no interest in getting an XBox since I can have Game Pass on PC. 

Gotta also think that by this point, people have gamed out the choices to death. In your very first playthrough, without a walkthrough in front of you, there’s no way of knowing that Wrex won’t be a threat if you spare him. There’s a lot of those “Hindsight is 20/20" sort of things in the Mass Effect series.

i chose soldier because I’ve already done this trilogy before, plumbed the depths of it’s classes and systems... and none of them are quite engaging enough to make the extra effort seem rewarding. I just want the story, and want to shoot my way through it.

This is VERY different in ME3 though, when the synergies and…

Does anyone remember that brief moral panic about punching the reporter who is shown time and time again to be charleton who spews anti-alien messages as somehow supporting attacks on real life credible journalists?

you can still make a tank in DS3. you just can’t use poise to override 75% of the other mechanics in the game anymore.
