Good game, please remove Roiland’s voice tho.

Well he just sucks as a voice actor, and he's the voice of basically every character. 90% of the reason I dropped the game

Trans ally here. Just wanted to say the casual transphobia and desire for trans erasure in rural America where I'm from is exhausting and fucking terrifying. Got stuck in jury duty today and this Gomer Pile sounding mother fucker behind me is having his small town folksy talk with the woman next to him and says "My wife tried me to quit drinking beer for 43 years. It turns out, that man dressing like a woman is what finally did it."
To which I really wanted to fucking ask why the fuck can't a trans person can't drink a beer? Are they going to boycott water next? Air? So frustrating to live with these fascists.

Conservative brainrot. None of them have a free thought, it's all propaganda.

I don't hate Sophia and really do hope everything goes great with all of them together....

But that relationship ain't lasting being all together for more than 3 months. The equivalent of a new car that loses a wheel on the first right turn. Hope I'm wrong though.

It's such a tragedy that Square decided to spend twelve years remaking one PS1 game. I wish I lived in a timeline where they realized what a stupid idea that was and put all that money and all those ideas into making something actually new.

In an alternate timeline, they could have used those 12 years to make 3-4 games you would have almost certainly hated.

[Nintex]

wtf are they talking about. Square Enix released about 16 games last year alone.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/what-kind-of-relationship-do-you-want-to-be-portrayed-in-gta-6.743875/

(Fanart of what Jason and Lucia looked like in the leaks) do you guys want to see a toxic type relationship portrayed or rather a healthy type. It would be kind of nice to see a positive interracial relationship in a game but I don’t know if it fits GTA. Another theory is they are brother and sided but that seems less likely

hi5 haughtyfrank, that was a really cool game

I especially don't know why any era types would be against it because it has a really out-of-place pro LGBTQ segment where the girl is like "oh you're trans or gay or whatever! good for you! some people don't like trans people but those people are stupid! trans rights are human rights!"

How do I know this isn't another Cyberpunk 2077 type genocide fest hiding behind "inclusion" to really promote the brainrotted fascists?

What else did "Gomer Pyle" say? You lasered in wanting to punch the fascist for a single comment, a joke at that, but I'm sure he said plenty of other fascist things too.

And did you get on the jury or not? A real trans ally would get on the jury and make sure no trans woman of color is under attack by the local fascists.

I've come to realize that I have to actively resist the urge to bulldoze into any thread about Metal Gear Solid V with the most intense negativity imaginable.

I absolutely detest this game. MGS was my favorite gaming franchise until this shit happened. I'll never forgive.

It's a game that disappointed me on a level that no other piece of media ever has, and as such my disdain for it is so great that it prevents me from having a rational discussion about it. I especially need to fight this inclination in any thread that (somehow) praises MGSV in its OP. It takes every fiber of my being to not launch into the thread with some shit like, "This game ruined my LIFE!!!!" And truth be told about half of the time I give in to temptation and reply anyway, against my better judgment. The entire subject of MGSV basically makes me revert into my 15-year-old self posting on GameFAQs.

Do any of you have games like this where your intense feelings toward them (one way or another) prevent you from speaking about them in a calm, rational way online?

Golly, I can't imagine why with that screenshot.

Good luck making a thread about how you liked kingdom come without people storming in trying to virtue signal calling you a nazi or nazi sympathizer.

Yeah, it was pretty much impossible to have a decent discussion here about Kingdom Come a few years back. It seems like it's gotten better lately, though.

I mean, I don't generally feel the irrational desire to make other people feel bad about what they like, but I immediately side-eye people who enjoyed AI: The Somnium Files. It's got such unbelievably disgusting character behavior that if you enjoy it, I almost feel like it says something pretty bad about you.

Seeing posters downplaying Gamergate like this makes me realize that in a few years people will probably being doing the same shit for Joanne's crimes, no wonder trans people don't feel safe on ResetERA.com with fascists openly posting like this. Practically bragging how they can get away with it because the staff doesn't care about keeping people safe.

The FTC approving those guidelines for themselves means they're going to be challenging seemingly every acquisition regardless of if current laws and jurisprudence actually supports their case. They're really going to be looking for an appellate court win to start making those changes because Congress won't be changing it any time, ever.

Normally a regulator's guidelines are persuasive authority in Courts because they are supposed to reflect recent case law. The FTC and DOJ have instead chosen to simply ignore the last four decades of case laws. Apparently, the weighted average age of cases cited in the guidelines is 1975.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

I am relatively sure that it is unprecedented for a government agency to simply pretend that the last 40+ years of cases never happened. This is almost like Lina Khan is a republican double agent. At a point in time when the Supreme Court is trying to gut US regulatory bodies, the FTC is attempting the biggest power grab that any regulator has ever attempted. The US Supreme Court has made it clear that major changes in interpreting statutes (like the Clayton Act) need explicit Congressional authorization. Furthermore, it is unlikely that any of the lower courts are simply going to let a regulator unilaterally change the law by issuing guidelines rather than the normal process of passing regulations or actual legislation. None of this is going anywhere.

I hope they don't follow the same narrative structure they did in the original. The third act doesn't have to be "random villain you didn't see coming" again.

I think this the only person in the whole world that didn’t thought that Doc Ock was going the the main villain sin the first game..

Forecast is Barbie occupying the culture war. Some embers are floating around, that are often conflicting. How it’s misandrist but Gosling’s Ken steals the movie. To featuring a trans actor but having a transphobic message. Being too preachy and adult for children. And WB inviting Matt Gaetz to the premiere

And just in time time for the SDXL release next week...
