Wait wait what? I get tons of translation and difficulty increasing patches from romhacking.net. I just used it last week for patching translations on a PSX game. The fuck happened all of a sudden!?

If you let the woke in, they will make the place woke. And everything woke, turns to shit.

I too am distraught by this news.

We’ll hopefully all get over this, come out better for it, and hopefully learn the right lessons about letting mentally ill people manage your community. They don’t actually care about the hobby they pretend to be involved in, they don’t like you, and they will always stab you in the back for more control.

Oh. Well, fuck. Tale as old as time...

These people never tell you until it's too late. I know that from voat.

That sad reason is that they don't care. They only started it for the power, and, once it's become a burden, they may as well disappear.

That's what I think of forum operators and mods, anyways. You can't ask anyone to go against their own interest. Have a backup plan. Beginnings are more fun than ends.

Reading that summary of their bullshit just reminds me of watching the mods on KIA1 work.

This started with Ganbare Goemon 3.

That's a game that's very popular among people who want to play games not originally sold in America. I want to play it myself one day.

Was it too racist or stereotypical for the wokies or something?

No. There was one NPC line that was translated as "I'm really a tranny...should I tell my boyfriend the truth?"

The Japanese word used was "newhalf," which means either a hermaphrodite or someone who's trying to transition, I forget which. This was how I learned of the term.

But given the outrage it spawned on the site, I'm guessing it was the latter.

A revision was quickly created to replace the word with "newhalf," but the translator responsible got BULLIED OFF THE ENTIRE INTERNET and considered killing himself over this.

They laughed.

Disgusting. This vindictive, hypocritical, and hateful cultural Marxism can't go away soon enough.

I can't wait for the day that gaming goes back to the culture and philosophy it had in around 2005.

I imagine that translator at least has a valid libel or defamation case on his hands. That behavior by those woke idiots sounds absolutely despicable.

Who's he going to sue? The nebulous cloud of trolls that are spamming all his contacts?

Avoiding responsibility is the fundamental axiom of marxism.

"Computer, destruct sequence one..."

Much respect to NC.

Nightcrawler ignored the complaints of woke abuse and ended up getting cannibalized.

He could have easily just recruited people who hate the regressive left instead of keeping the woke asshats as mods, and based on him saying that his database was out of date I think he did not want to keep running a site that needed bugfixes.

Maybe, but in the end he didn't give them anything. He gave his database to the internet as a whole, set the self destruct and noped out.

And I can respect that.

Is it woke mods? Saw this on r/speedrun which is where I heard about this first so I’m curious:

Gideon Zhi? There's a name I haven't heard in about 20 years...didn't know he was still at this.
