Damn, can't get the wording right for a game that seems to be free of homophobia or transphobia as an OT title without it potentially aging like milk if Kenneth missed a spot.

How about...
Metaphor: ReFantazio |OT| Say No to Fascism

Will this age like milk the further into the game you go...

lol feels worth foregrounding that this article concludes this is largely because those characters do not exist. "Omitting those storylines isn't as forward-thinking as thoughtfully including them, but I am glad to see Atlus learning lessons from years of this shit plaguing otherwise great games." It's good that they didn't feel the women are objectified the way they are in other Persona games, though.

There's no pleasing them

The OT naming conventions has become so politicized there.

I'm old enough to remember the sturm und drang caused by Stellar Blade--for those who don't know, it was especially hilarious because the nature of the insane argument resulted in the puritans advocating for the sexy OT name, and the "suspect" ""chuds"" campaigning for the more socially conscious one. 

And then the mods just forced the most boring name imaginable on everyone lol

Maybe we'll get lucky and see them run it back for ReFantazio?

Totally expected them to get upset that there's then simply no trans characters in the game at all

Anyone happen to have the link to the era thread about dustborn devs being 'harassed' and gamergate chuds blocking its sales that I'm sure exists, because I've been watching some clips of it on social media and laughing my ass off that this is a real game not a parody

Okay this became a lot more amusing when it apparently in reality means "now with 100% less gay and trans people*

[Eric Cartman]

Say this is unacceptable: 'You're not a fan if you do this.' Make a really big statement and just see if any money leaves. I bet you it won't, because people of color, and especially Black people, make up a very large percentage of buying power. They might find that it's actually more lucrative for them, but everyone's using 'woke' like it's a dirty word."

uhhhhh.... are they unironically invoking the racist 'n-word rich' stereotype

I like how both the Lebanon and Palestine thread banned US election talk but then you come here and it's people openly bragging about how they put "doomers" on ignore

apparently there's no place here to actually talk about it.

Uh, isn't a LGBT event inherently one catering to a minority?

They so hate capitalism and "rainbow capitalism" when it's the only system that encourages catering to minorities. As Chief Malik showed, they seem to think socialism prioritizes minorities when it's the deliberate abolition of any minority views. The entire complaint socialists have with capitalism is that it wastes too many resources on unnecessary things that minorities want.

I thought it was weird that his only friends were actors who all disappeared in mysterious circumstances

Easily explained. It was only one actor who was really method and this guy didn’t notice. Ask him to list his friends: Morbius, Joker, Mark David Chapman, that one guy with cornrows.

Also: bad luck and systemic issues

I wonder how ERA people are going to react about Metaphor in the long run. In the demo the game seems full aware that fantasy racism is not the same as IRL racism and the elite monsters are called “humans”.  Reviewers says that the game is hopeful but also sounds like the usual crowd will act like is the wrist stuff ever after the honeymoon face ends. 

I like Fairy Yukari and my first male side kick is not a Yusuke/Junpei.

I've played through the demo, the game rules. When it landed they were quite down on it but the reviews dropping has changed the tone of things.

Also, this is basically Persona with adults (or very twinky adults), like they perpetually claimed they wanted.

Metaphor appears to have a pretty strong anti-capitalism, anti-racist message in it.

So Bioshock Infinite.

Ok Reddit Komrades Now that I've rigged the election. 
What should I do with the people who can't join the army, drive a truck or work the farms and factories.
All they do is consume our finite resources and protest that they are starving. Shooting them seems way to expensive and the prisons are full.
Can you help me figure this out.
 

As we say in China, a duck that can't fly can still lay an egg. Breed them and harvest their organs
 

Send them to your neighbour Jack.
 

Lock them up in penal colonies. When you've broken their will use them to attack your enemies. 
Enough of them might overrun a leaking nuclear power plant and rape a village or two or take a disease with them.
After their job is done you can steal the washing machines to sell on Ebay. Make sure you have enough alcohol tho. 
 

Bro wtf
Gracias Joe I'm sending them to you
