Learn Japanese and never look back. I'm so glad I invested the time to learn it.

Actually doing that now, not just for entertainment but for business in Japan my company is working towards.

We have translators etc but I want to learn it myself and it's a beautiful language.

I was able to play Ghost of Tsushima and understood a large portion of it. So making progress. I read some Japanese manga occasionally to help learn more of the casual tone as well. Cant wait until I'm fluent.

Also Japanese women are absolutely gorgeous.

some, but the majority are not, pretty much like most nations except Africa where they all look like men

Japan has the highest number of MGTOWs in the world.

You mean it isn't the advanced waifu tech!?

Good to know. Didn't know that about MGTOW. Interesting.

You tell them that wordplay and puns aren't necessary in every single thing ever, in KANJI, and I might go back.

But those two things make everything a fucking nightmare to consume outside academic settings.

Reading manga translations and the 40 hoops they jump through to explain or make a single joke work makes it sound extremely exciting to understand.

But there is so much history, local memery, geography, folklore and more baked into their daily wordplay that it requires not just learning a language but the entire country for some works.

Hell yeah, I think I saw the ugly stagnation of western game industry coming 10 years ago and a few years after that I started learning Japanese. To this day that is the only thing I'm thankful to have made the decision.

I'm probably not a very good example for learning Japanese since I just kind of picked it up while watching lots of anime and then learned kanji solely through Anki instead of doing exercises and stuff like that.

when and why the f8ck do they have a "diversity committee"? Anyways don't support them, anymore. Look for better companies big or small to support.

If they really wanted to they could just not listen to the mob, the pink haired check mark and her friends do not buy these games anyways, the ones who do buy would not be sjws generally and the controversy would probably get them more attention and customers actually

No, but they do command the gamejournos who will give their games a bad score, which will also be reflected on sites like Metacritic. I’ll never understand why companies still care about those reviews.

Honestly, if we’re being completely honest with ourselves, it’s definitely true that no one cool wants to work for these companies at this point. If you’re actually passionate about the industry your only serious options are valve, Poland or Japan. Otherwise, take your tech skills to a cushy corporate gig and crank out your Isometric, classic pixel, metroidvania game in your free time

Nah, they don't have to. There are enough examples that not bending the knee works perfectly fine. Hell, there are enough examples that show that bending the knee makes everything worse.

At this point in time I assume that they fuck over their product deliberatly.

Even after all the changes and the fix to the sandbox with Forsaken... I still prefer Destiny 1 (and still play it once a week) Destiny 2 is very... corporatised

“And you’re sure more fat and ugly Guardians will help us fight the Darkness?”

“Darkness?”

“Darkness?”

Incidentally when D2 launched they tried removing the focus of Light and Darkness from the story and just tried to make it a less sci-fi esque shooter... fucking retards

There will always be good games - those made in the past. Any game made in the CurrentYear will be complete garbage, so you may want to avoid.

not always the case, Ive been enjoying Hell Let Loose (Indie Dev WWII FPS) over the last 3 months. The dev have put a hell of a lot of focus on realism and period accurate authenticity similar to the old Battlefield games but with more strategic map control. If youre into tactical FPS id recommend giving it a try on a Free Weekend, game is still in early access but very polished - e.g. one of my clips

I'm getting really sick of the word "diversity" . And its always the "diversity" of shallow identity politics, but none for different opinions and ideas

Thanks @kratomlol I needed another reason to not buy in to the next expansion (Sunsetting is bad enough) does anyone have an archived link to the article?

Good thing their abusive banning of players for the sin of not-running-windows already protected me from their aids.

Get rat-railed, Bungie. 343 took the best part of you.

ID Software and CDPR (depending on how CP2077 goes) are the only AAA devs that still have that focus and drive on creating something... everyone else is after the $$$
