They will report anything, especially if its just a cute anime girl.

I think the best way I've seen it described is as them writing themselves in cosplay. Like them playing D&D and not bothering with in character and out of character talk, just vaguely imagining that they look like a fantasy character while still being exactly the same.

They're old men. Better to go out doing the right thing than dancing around it afraid.

Yeah I noticed this when I saw gameplay too. It has a ton of unnecessary diversity. It's a shame because I've heard the games are well developed, but like you can expect from many soyboy developers they want to virtue signal about how progressive they are. They always want to shave off the rough edges and make things more "wholesome" and it ends up looking like Steven Universe CalArts trash.

Yep, "war crimes" as a term were popularized to justify WWII as you can see when it started being used. It's a weaponized word which is essentially the same as racist, sexist, bigot, equality, etc.

The director of the game is a transvestite as well.

I saw this scathing review which basically highlights how bad the character models look, the awful writing, and the monotonous gameplay. The only praise they have is that the environments visually look good (but even then the level design sucks).

Some easily influenced normies might pick up the game because it's Dragon Age and it 'seems' like it's getting good early reviews, but I don't expect anybody to tell their friends or say on social media positive word of mouth compared to something like Baldurs Gate 3.

Bioware is dead. We knew that for a long time, but soon it's going to be official.

A miserable little pile of secrets. But enough talk, have at you!

I believe that they are planning to make their own platform, but they are very slow at development. They've been working on a 3D world game(?) HoloEarth for a while and that seems to be going nowhere with very little actual clear direction.

I think they have enough of a following to have success on their own platform considering their talents have tens of thousands of live viewers regularly, but I don't expect it to be an easy or simple transition.

Yeah the phrase "The internet never forgets" used to be significant, anything you post could be saved and reposted later. It's just self-important artists who think they "own" the pixels they arranged and that means nobody else should be able to download it and upload it anywhere else.

Twitter announced that they are going to be using any images uploaded there for AI generation. What people fail to recognize is that bluesky (where everybody is leaving too) also allows for AI scraping I believe.

It was published by Bandai Namco and you can see the latest stats here.

Yeah I'm pretty sure Kojima brought a bunch of experts in for Metal Gear Solid 2 to make sure they were more accurate in terms of technical details like how you would clear rooms, what you say on the radio, etc.

Here is the image

Some of that might be due to low scan quality, especially on older series like Berserk. I would suggest watching some of Naoki Urasawa's Manben to see artists actually drawing it.

Link to the video. If you wondered why the character models looked so awful this may be one reason why.

TL;DW:

1. Star Wars Outlaws was being discussed internally as "Red Dead Star Wars"

2. Assassin's Creed Shadows preorders are 7% compared to Valhalla's in the same week to week leadup.

3. Skull and Bones was the start of Ubisoft's downfall. It cost roughly $650-$800 million to make.

4. The main reason why Yasuke was chosen as the male lead in Ass Creed Shadows was because of BLM.

5. Despite what they say about downplaying agenda, they will be pushing it further

6. Next Assassins Creed was supposed to be "Hexe" and a very gay feminist witch game, which is likely being reduced to a spinoff or canceled

There is also this video who also has an interview with a Ubisoft employee.

Here is a tweet with the video in case the link doesn't work. I know there was another post about this, but this one has the video of the interview.

Going to Shinto shrines in Japan is like Christmas in America, even if you're not significantly Christian you might still have a Christmas tree and give gifts on the day.

Also we know that America is trying to strongarm Japan into fag marriage stuff. The people in power are figureheads expected to bow down to behind the scenes power.

This is one thing I was concerned over with Zelda Echoes of Wisdom, but I'm really glad they had her use magic and even when she attacks she has to possess/transform into Link. It's thankfully not a "girlboss" game at all.

Especially with AI becoming more useful. I think they found that most school papers pass as AI either because many were the training data for the AIs in the first place, or they all just have the same kind of tone and phrasing to them.

Yeah and Hyenas was at least $80 million and it was canceled before it even launched, they said it was Sega's most expensive game yet. I can only imagine how many additional projects are going to get shelved early due to this.

Basically. They are cute girls, usually with social awkwardness or mental issues, where they don't act like vapid attention seeking whores. Of course girls like that became vtubers too after it was huge, but they still plaster their face and tits on social media. Most of the big ones, JP, and corporate, still act true to being "anime girls in real life" and succeed because of it.

I assume Nintendo will either drop it or lose the case. Even in Japan with really strict laws on that kind of stuff, they have let so many other games get a pass with even more egregious examples of copying Pokemon, such as Temtem. The only reason that Palworld was a target was because of how popular it became.

Yeah that's one reason Twitch doesn't ban channels that get botted. They don't know who is actually paying for the bots, the streamer themselves or somebody who hates them and wants them to get into a botting controversy.

For instance the people botting discourse on Twitter don't always bot their own accounts, they bot random people ideologically aligned with them. It makes them think the support is organic and double down.

Normies see the benefits of supporting the prevailing ideology, all they see is the rewards and incentives and they assume everybody who isn't taking the free money/attention is an idiot who doesn't understand how it works.
