I feel like there should at the very least be extra hard clampdowns on people pulling obvious brigading tactics. You're right that this pedo shit is worse than anything being done by anyone so far and it's always people with a grudge that are trying to take the community or the site down.
ConsumeProduct spammers were fucking annoying too and I've ended up blocking them as a result when I realised where they were coming from but it was an unfortunately common tactic on reddit to spam child porn on sub to get them admin banned and this looks like the text equivalent. Surprised that they didn't use bots to try and make it look like everyone was agreeing with the bullshit.
Since KIA was meant to be about games more than anything I could shamelessly my community to you guys if you want and make it a bit more generalised. It's more about being really autistic out about dev work though I'm not too fussed about shitposting as long as it's not NPC behaviour which I think there's common ground on.
I wouldn't be shocked if it wasn't even leftists involved in this and it was simply the site eating itself and taking advantage of the mods' absence.
It's another example of how normies ruin anything the second they get involved, the grifting commentators are another part of the cringe process. Real historians and people who are generally fans of that era of history who know what they're talking about get drowned out by retards hopping on the trending algorithms. Even geisha assassins, shinobi and female samurai have more viability historically than this crap ubisoft is selling.
I just had to have a moment to think but that's Jordan Peterson's daughter is it? Oh fuck, even as a guy just observing I seriously underestimate women and their self-esteem issues, surprised she hasn't gone for tattoos.
I know we're getting autistic about the historical context, but we all know they never gave a fuck about that and are just looking for a woke insert specifically to piss off people they don't like and it's working. We know as well that this is for a fact that they're doing it for this reason because they're smug retards who love to brag about it.
That transcript/interview confirms my belief that most of the elites and the people who hang in their circles are actual retards, evil psychopaths yes? But retards also.
Eugene: I don’t get that, but it seems like a lot of people have rose-colored memories of pre-2020 life in America. Low interest rates, okay economy.
OH MY GOD! PEOPLE WANT TO BE ABLE TO PAY FOR THINGS!
You know something? I'm keeping it close to the chest now because otherwise I'm a shit talker if I don't post up some gameplay footage. I've been seriously pondering it and studying up on my character meshes for precisely this reason. My main work is by the gods at the moment though because that's quite a passion project for me, I'm more veering towards a crime game because that market is ridiculously wide open. Some kind of assassin game these days wouldn't be insanely difficult to do.
One thing I find amusing is when white leftists talk about Japan's xenophobia it's funny how fast they flip to that because for once they can play the victims as white foreigners. Then you realise that these are inevitably the types of inconsiderate dicks that think they can show up in a foreign country and smoke weed or deface priceless historical structures and yes that's a thing.
People put up with Bethesda for a long time because they provided real gameplay value in the long run and you could play their games for months and people still do. However that shine is coming off now thanks to Fallout 76 and Starfield and like other studios they're discovering with horror that normies at best will only hang around for a short while and aren't loyal customers. Can't wait to see the flailing about they do like with Disney and they try to salvage their reputation.
The only time I would ever want IPs like that is if it's some sort of timeless brand like Warhammer or Fallout. I'm being blunt, I don't think Assassins Creed is that special in terms of design. If you can pull off a copy-cat and nobody cares then it was never that amazing, just give me a non-woke Japanese game where I get to play as a shinobi taking down generals like it's Shogun Total War and I'd be thrilled. I would also go so far as to write this about the GTA series, I don't think anyone would care if somebody cloned a GTA game and made it better without the woke shite inserted in.
It's always a con, some cons are more elaborate than others and they hide them better, but it's always a con. It looks like the shit that we've been dealing with for years in the UK is finally reaching the U.S. The joke is a lot of this stuff is faulty garbage to begin with, they're just cheap motion sensors that can get set off by anything. Whenever I see a tech company I've never heard of mysteriously pop up being touted by boomers I instantly get suspicious.
That's not even the worse part, this earnings call is going to really confirm people's prejudices about the games industry.
Our goal in 2024 is to drive top-line improvements and build upon the profitability we have achieved last year, while positioning us to achieve our $1 billion EBITDA target for 2025 with further growth beyond. We're off to a strong start with nearly $90 million positive EBITDA generated this quarter, despite absorbing some of the launch cost of LatAm. But more importantly, we're laying the critical groundwork and infrastructure from which we expect to build a broader and more profitable Direct-to-Consumer segment.
1 billion? Be happy with the sales that you have you greedy fucks. They know that they can't get anymore growth out of the games industry so they're targeting normies who have zero interest in games. After they realised they couldn't bring anyone new in the market and the locusts who show up are just trend followers they started trying to wring the playerbase dry, but people quickly got fed up of it of their monetisation practices.
Fuck me the things that I could do with $200 million alone, I would take over this industry. These shit heads are squandering any good will they might have had and are fucking over the industry doing it while acting like this is any other business. What a bunch of shit heads. The good news is this is a very clear signal of the death of the games industry, they are completely out of touch.
Edit: Please don't use this particular archive site, keeps trying to click me off to some other link when I'm pressing down to highlight important bits.
Ironically that's more of a problem these days than any potential racial strife against whites oh and of course it's fucking rich people bitching about it pretending they represent minorities and know what they think the dumb fucks.
They fucking know, they just want power over people. This kind of shit is why I've mostly stopped playing multiplayer. Just the other day I was playing CS:2 and there was some cheat whiner in the chat who was bitching about someone on the other team getting 6 - 0 with an AWP and of course he was a terrible player. Even when I'm having a pretty bad day and I'm simply not in the mood for multiplayer I don't do crap like that I quit like a normal human being and do something else.
Also big doubt that any of that shit was real, there's a lot of trash talking but most people out there wouldn't actually say crap like that to a woman and female streamers have been known to fake shit before. You guys remember bully hunters? They faked the fuck out of that. The people who are wanting to get other people banned are getting worse than the cheaters and mic spammers themselves.
Edit: Saw another player get booted who didn't even look suspicious and just had good reflexes. You can't even be above average in a game anymore because they'll kick you or false report you, that pisses me off.
Hey if you think that's bad just imagine a zoomer with pronouns and the tranny flag in their bio having access to an entire network of a major corporation and it's source code and they got the job purely because they virtue signalled the right way and attended university :)
Eastern Europe is definitely an option to consider but precisely because of the problems you describe I don't know if it would be worth it. Also there's the very real possibility of WW3 kicking off that you need to consider. I mean right now it's great, the flights are dirt cheap among other things or you can go via ferry if you don't trust the planes anymore.
How long is that going to last though? No idea, which is why I'm very much in wait and see mode at the moment. I've got a lot of respect for countries though that give a shit about their local lives and Hungary is something I've been looking at generally for that reason. Despite being in the EU they resist the WEF policy at every opportunity.
South America? I'll chat about places I'm considering a bit but I'm not going on about Mexico or anything like that but you'd be surprised at how yes there are in fact some reasonably stable countries there that are probably going to be a safe bet in a WW3 scenario or mass migration not being as much of a problem. There are countries that fall off the radar in South America and don't have endless news articles written about them. I'm sure there are expats here that will fill you in if they feel inclined.
Skill wise as well I do have to consider that learning Spanish would give me access to an entire continent, though I know understanding bits of German and other languages can get you by in Europe generally. Ideally I'm looking for a country that's very off the radar in terms of geo-politics as that will probably be the safest and quietest overall.
Edit: Really at the moment I'm focusing on finishing projects and waiting.
It doesn't even matter historically what they're doing, call it out for what it is, race inserting and ticking corporate boxes, we know these fuckers are in with woke narrative writers. Just call the fuckers on it and watch them flail about because they want to get into these long winded historical debates because then normies won't notice what's going on.
