So far the only victim, will this hold?

I just don't feel safe knowing that people on ResetERA.com would play a Nazi simulator. This is exactly why you can't have productive conversation on the forum about The Marvels.

A game like Persona, where children are heavily sexualized, is regarded as the pinnacle of gaming and no one really seems to care about all the problematic things it has.

You could argue that the mods don’t enforce a soft ban and let people shit on Persona games while everyone could else could care less. But the usual suspects do the same shit with Persona games, or even with Methapor: Refantazio.

Reeee mods has replaced banning games to letting a small group of protected users be allowed to shit up/ban bait in threads about games they don't like until the thread is either locked or anyone giving any pushback against their insanity/shitposting is banned into silence. Often both happens.
Given history, Stellar Blade threads will be a shit show due to the Crossing Edens, ComedySmashers, ClickyCals, and Kyuujis of the place making it impossible to talk about the game without it being inundated with shitposting and ban baiting. All mod approved.

Quote:Take out the word absolute if it ruffles your feathers so much; there is no hyperbole in my calling it terrible treacle. The human story in Minus One is corny and braindead—trading the rendering of grave, complicated social reality into apocalyptic metaphor of the '54 original for a mawkish pro-imperial soap opera. One of the main supporting characters have a 3 minute monologue about how the Imperial Army was shit and sacrificed people to cover their own asses, and how they don’t want to repeat the mistake of sending people to die and sacrifice their lives senselessly. “IS PRO FASCIST YOU GUYS!” https://www.resetera.com/threads/godzilla-x-kong-the-new-empire-official-trailer-2-mar-29.816852/page-2 BTW, people bitching about dumb kaiju films being dumb films are also insufferable. You have two excellent Japanese Godzilla films in a row but everything also needs to be hyper serious and not silly.

And what happened when people did get baited to engage with the usual suspects? The got called Nazis and Holocaust deniers(!!!) and successfully derailed the thread. But, yeah. Greatest weapon against those loons is to ignore/block them. In the future, whenever they cry why people ignore them, people on Reee need point to that KCD as a prime example why.

And why they always advocate for destroying everything and starting over, proclaiming everything tainted and unsalvageable. Free speech, due process, rule of law, "the West", etc. all come with flaws and that's completely unacceptable. We can't criticize Eastern games because their culture is completely different and not able to be understood by Westerners, Western culture, especially European culture, is either stolen or doesn't even exist, so the only reason a person would point to the lack of criticism towards Eastern games is to try and shift us to criticizing that which cannot be criticized in order to cover up for the endless crimes that we are suffering in our own culture. It's like all those men who don't understand that toxic masculinity has destroyed the entire gender by filling it with incel rapists so they spread hatred towards women who are actually perfect divine uncorrupted helpless angels in tune with the greater reverberations of the universe. Rather than accept that Western culture is corrupt and needs to be destroyed completely, as proven by Kingdom Come's and Hogfart's sales, this poster is trying to gin up a racist hate mob against The Other. Literally fascist genocide. We see him. And now with you doing whataboutism to defend his whataboutism in favor of white supremacy, well, hit dog hollers.

The fella in question is being painted as some evil imperialist genius, he was murdered at 29, existed 250 years ago in a country that was literally banning everyone from even thinking about leaving for 250 years before that, to the extent that when the first modern ships landed in Japan he yeeted himself aboard to go and have a look and see what was going on outside. Then it gets double ridiculous because they take offence to him being compared to socrates, a literal WHITE SUPREMACIST (check it out, Plato and Xenophon confirm it), when the actual comparison is that he fostered a generation of intellectuals and was murdered for sedition against the state. Imperial Japan was undoubtedly in the top 5 absolute bastard groups in all of human history but we can't just like, enjoy a videogame because this dude's a character in it and his teachings are? Oda Nobunaga and basically every other historical samurai in games were massive paedos and did literal genocides.

You can also see the thinking in the way they respond to anyone who disagrees. They must either be stupid (so condescend since they clearly have never heard your position before and aren't seeing the obvious) or evil (so attack them for invading your space) making them a threat to productive discussion.
