I guess I just don't understand like, instead of potentially having to admit you're wrong (and I'm not saying you are, we don't know), wouldn't it be more responsible to not speculate in the first place and avoid it altogether? Just because it's probably the case that the thing that resonated with people is the initial reaction rather than the cleanup, like how few people check the corrections for newspapers when they get stuff wrong, once it's out there it has a way of sticking.

apparently brianna wu has finally come out as trans

Why did she keep denying it all these years?

Even I eventually succumbed to the belief that she wasn't transgender. People kept saying that she wasn't trans, and she kept on denying it, and so eventually I just thought she just merely LOOKED like a biological male, not actually was one.

I'm interested if this ever gets discussed on Ree.

It would do Shreds good to stop being so cumbrain. Stop reposting porn artists while gooning and actually go outside.

It’s working for him, whatever he’s doing. Grift people using multiple accounts, and buying Gunpla.

Once you hear him speak, and notice his face is partially constructed of animal fat, it’s so obvious. I was never fooled. They never fool me. Put me on Maury, and I’ll 💯 it.

I don't have the words to express how appalling it is to see a burka thread poster being such a horny coomer for big titty anime girls. And freaking lolis no less 🤮🤮🤮

Granted, Melody never really posted much at all in the burka threads, thankfully, but the fact they even participated in them at all while being a coomer weeb is high treason in of itself.

This post needs to be framed with a gold-plated plaque that reads " Example #1 of how Era is a massive bubble totally divorced from all reality". And I Say that as someone who has cut off my father at great personal cost to myself. "Loving your family is facisim" is easily a contender for all-time worst fucking take ever posted on this website.

Oh, that's why the edit.

My father is a pedophile who molested me and my siblings and would routinely beat me. The notion that me going no contact with him was the wrong call whatsoever is humorous

Another day, another 'Nintendo, please make all your female characters black, lesbian, transwomen' thread, this time from the always-annoying 'Spotlighting Black Excellence - Diversity Analyst' asshole Neoxon

Outside of EPD 5 (Splatoon/Animal Crossing) & EPD 9 (Mario Kart/ARMS), internal Nintendo can sadly be pretty conservative. And even with those teams, EPD 5 in particular clearly can't explicitly say that Pearl & Marina are a lesbian couple despite multiple blatant hints that they're together. I just hope that the positive reception of Vivian being officially a trans woman globally as well as the success of Peach Showtime & (likely) Echoes of Wisdom bring about change for Nintendo when it comes to leading ladies as well as diversity in general, and I'm glad that Laura is pointing out some of the more deep-seated issues with Nintendo's more conservative way of thinking with how they handle their ladies in a playable role.

On the diversity front, MonolithSoft has been improving as of late going by how well they handled Taion in Xenoblade 3 (who I'd argue is one of the best Black characters in an RPG). It's another topic, but I just wanted to give them props.

Bunch of men in their 40's, stuck in an eternal mid-life crisis, trying to shove identity politics (because that worked SO WELL for Concord and Dustborn) to a Japanese company that targets children as their main audience.

First post

Did she forget Samus exists? Or the various FE games with a female lead?
I'm not invalidated anything else, but she's extrapolating what seems to be a Zelda problem specifically (although I admit, I still have to watch the video)

Not taking the poc bait

Fascist, genocide, Nazi have lost any and all meaning over there. 

Does resetera pay members for how many times they use these words? They're like the Idiocracy guy that says Carl's Jr all the time to get paid.

Wasn't it moreso that there needed to be a reason for Zelda specifically to be the hero, and not "the girl" in a general sense? Zelda was created in the 1980s, at a point when these gender stereotypes generally went unchallenged. But Nintendo is a gameplay-first company, and they aren't going to arbitrarily change the protagonist of an established franchise without being able to justify it through novel gameplay mechanics and design choices.

If this is specifically a Zelda thing, then yeah I don't see the issue with a character who's not normally going out on heroic adventures needing an inciting incident

W...wait. What's happening on Era? The chuds have taken over my safe space!

Cut off my mom a few years back and while it's sad that she can't be a reasonable person, I have no regrets as it was done for the health and safety of my young son.

Basically he was born during covid and after many years of struggles. Mom refused the vaccine and I cut contact at that point. She's also a bit mentally unstable and prone to just bailing at the slightest perceived transgression and I didn't want that around my son.

It's a shame they won't have a relationship because she can be really fun, but I think it's ultimately for the best.

My stance is this: when the creator of a game is someone who is openly, blatantly bigoted, I won't support them. It's literally impossible to be perfectly ethical in a capitalist system, but when the people who are the reason a piece of media exists at all are bigots actively pushing narratives that make life worse for innocent people, that media is tainted by association in my book.

It's no different from how I will not support anything related to the Harry Potter IP because JK Rowling openly and unapologetically wants my friends to die. The IP is Rowling and giving her money would just allow her to keep spending it to fund legislation to erase trans people from existence.

I don't expect you to necessarily share the exact same stance as me, but I think that open bigotry is a slightly different kind of situation than "drama", if that makes sense.

You bought Diablo 4...

I don't think they're trolling, I think Resetera is a magnet for some fucked up and damaged people who can build a pseudo life for themselves in the discordverse. It's actually quite sad. The message to these people isn't cut everyone out of your life, it's build up your self esteem so you can struggle beyond your circumstances but they won't get that there.

This is a good summary

View:

tl;dr; it's still not happening.

"the phone", ie the actual operating system, is not listening to you and serving you ads because of this. This has never been proven, and people are just really really bad at understanding technology, or confirmation biases.

If you install shitty scam apps that has ad systems in it that listen to you while they're open, that is on you and your bad app choices.

Never forget that she tried to get some comedian hosting a game event cancelled for misgendering her only to later completely walk it back. Same person also misheard lyrics in Persona 5 saying "retarded" and instantly tried to start a controversy with an article.
