That sex scenes thread is the perfect ResetEra thread.

Quote:I can do without them. Fading to black does the same thing for me. I get it, they’re doing it, I don’t need to see how.

Quote:I'm good with sex scenes personally, they don't do anything for me and I have never found it necessary to tell the story that two people are into each other or are banging, I don't feel like I have ever walked away from a sex scene like "wow that showed me something that was crucial to my enjoyment or understanding of the plot or characters"

Quote:This. I stopped wanting sex in movies the moment I could get porn on demand.

Label me what you like but I just don't care for sex in movies, television or even public displays of affection and I don't think that makes me a bad person or even a prude. Not against it but it's not something I need to see.

Quote:Most sex scenes are there so the trailer has a part of it and attract a bunch of horny people.

Quote:Grow up and stop watching movies with your parents.
This is a shitty thing to say amidst a housing pricing catastrophe in so many places where a lot of people can't move out. Or heck, just people who enjoy spending time with their parents I guess

It's not anti-intellectual to recognize that Marx was an idiot lunatic. He started an indefinite series of tomes on a subject he never bothered to learn about or even come up with a definition for that he said determined all of human history. lol

The only thing about it that angers me is that the developers won't release the statistics so we can know just how much these accommodations are doing to make people feel more welcome.

How will we track if there's enough representation if we don't know if enough players are using the options in the right amounts?

I just don’t think is worth getting mad about it, specially if is so innocuous. I don’t like the pronoun stuff but I, personally, can respect it if people are not ultra insane about it. And the pronoun stuff is, being sincere, a form of escapism for a lot of people (maybe to an insane degree).

I found it more annoying in stuff that sincerely beliefs that is not shallow pandering to an imaginary demographic, like that dinosaur visual novel. A Bethesda RPG trying to please everyone I found it “meh”.

Anyone upset that space game has a pronoun option in 2023 is likely a fucking retard.

Like, who gives a fuck?

"Cool, a pronoun option. I don't need to use that as it's defaulted to the body type."

Quote:To be honest, most right leaning people have the view it’s a character problem not a drug problem… they believe that you can just suck it up and stop. Or pray to god and he will fix it for you…. I have seen many of them say this to people with addiction issues. And they really believe what they say, it’s a nightmare
Quote:There is zero chance in the states it’s ever made free lol…. Drug addiction here is considered a moral issue, as in you are not strong enough to stop so who cares about you, or you turned from god so this is why you are an addict. Half the county thinks like this.

Doge

Yes, addiction is not as simple as character problem, but you CAN stop using it if you really want (nobody is saying is fucking easy).

This is why corpos like pandering to these guys, they justify any shit just because perceived representation.

What are you even arguing here, that it's moral to prolong people's torture? That taxpayers should fund people's self-destruction? That the state you so desperately want to refashion everyone with violence and survellience into New (Wo)Men should cease this practice when it comes to drug addicts destroying themselves? You're not "saving" people by "reviving" them with Narcan or whatever else if you encourage them to immediately get back to their addiction that's destroying them.

You haven't thought about this issue at all, you're simply trying to be more pious than others without having to think about the humans involved and what happens to them and those who care about them. Something you will immediately invert when you move to another thread where you want not just disapproval or "tough love" but actual regular violence doled out against people whose mere existence offends you and whose blackened souls you can claim to see the evil within.
