You first, Narita. It's only fair. After all, it's a policy you're endorsing, so you should be the first to fulfill it, right? If it's as wonderful as you suggest, then you should have no problems with this. You've had a good run. No need to continue on, eh?
...he won't, of course. Cowards like this have no end of excuses, and always expect other people to be the ones paying the price.
Disgusting.
Treating women like men drives them insane.
I don't mean cutesy 'yelling in frustration and ranting' insane. I mean a literal psychological break. The majority of women are absolutely incapable of going through what being a man is like.
They also never realize this, which is why you see women absolutely gobsmacked when they get slapped in the face with what being a man is like.
It would be hilarious if it didn't have real-world consequences in the wider social arena.
Saw it on my feed, and I've been really curious about the game, so I gave it a shot.
Got to the point about whining about Hogwarts Legacy and mumbling about 'muh ukraine' and 'muh russia', downvoted and went on my way.
Still tempted to by it, but if I do, I'll be waiting a couple of weeks after it's release to see if it's actually all that it looks to be or no.
I don't think 'I can have unlimited sex without repercussions(like men always have) and use my body to earn money(like men always have)' is as much an advocate for the modern age as she thinks it is.
A part of me might - I say 'might' - be able to look past all the troon grooming and CRT in the Dead Space remake...
Except...
Just...
Why, oh fucking why do they have to make EVERYONE so fucking ugly. Without exception. Isaac looks like a fucking goob, Kendra looks like an irate dyke, Hammond looks like a dweeb, and Nicole looks like Isaac really, really likes his grannies for dating.
'Buh buh buh they now look like their voice actors' - Fuck off, don't care. This isn't a fucking movie. I want a goddamn game with a silent protagonist that I can self-insert into that atleast looks halfway badass, in an everyman sort of way. Barring that, atleast make the characters look good.
Bleh. Fuck EA and fuck the Dead Space remake.
Correction: 'has always had'.
AskMen having a female mod is nothing new, sadly. And yes, they tend to naturally favor women, including hopping up to defend women answering questions.
Because men always have to be the adult in the room.
If you want some old-school Sci-fi anime, I'd suggest Gunbuster.
It's relatively short, a 6 OAV anime, but I'd highly endorse it. When you look at it form the lens of the 'modern age', it's a very odd duck - it comes across as very much the classic 'Young girl wants to pilot giant robots and succeeds with SPIRIT and GUTS' and then it starts smacking you with the time-dialation effects of superluminal travel and space-faring aliens that would make the tyranids shit their pants and who's art design looks like something truly alien.
You'll probably have to pirate it, though. And if you can grab the science shorts, do so. They're fun.
If you want some straight lore channels, I've got two suggestions for you;
Baldemort's Guide to Warhammer 40k
and
You could argue that alot of their lore stuff is ripped straight from the wikis and/or books, but, eh. Don't care. They're both creative formats with excellent voice work. Plus, ABorder Prince does book readings of Warhammer 40K stuff. (Not going to lie - I fucking love the readings he does of some of the Fabius Bile short stories.) Good stuff.
I still have no idea what the flying fuck GW was thinking with Erda.
They introduce an oh-so-important female character completely out of the blue, with no prep-work or hint, who was intimately involved in one of the most founding and critical events of the setting in what screams to be absolute pandering to the soy crowd...
...and then promptly have her be responsible for cataclysmically fucking up by giving the Primarch's over to chaos in an attempt to... not have them raised by the Emperor for... reasons. With the end result basically being 'Local woman ruins everything, forever.'
What the fuck. It's so schizo I can only fathom this entire clusterfuck was the result of several different writers/producers going at it in a sort of unholy, twisted cold war of creative effort.
It's just attention-whoring by any other means. Actively bad behavior to make sure you're always paying attention to them.
I'd bet good money that any player who comes up with such a character concept that they'd twist the setting's verisimilitude into an unholy escher pretzel to excuse it would constantly harp and harass everyone to make sure that they accommodate their special snowflake at every turn and twist.
And if you don't, then they throw a screaming fit, using their imaginary disabilities as an excuse to upend the table and twist the DM around their little finger.
Are these actual women saying this, or just trannies using the latest thing as a weapon?
Then only Gundam series I recall that had a large number of female followers was Gundam Wing, where all the MCs are men.
Given these set of retards and the various things they've labeled 'right wing' and 'white supremacy', I wouldn't be surprised if their NPC script defaults to 'anything from before 2020 is automatically right wing'.
As for me, I kinda like it. Very New Retro Wave/Vapourwave.
People endorse the Eisenhorn novels as the 'shallow end' of the Warhammer 40K pool. Different strokes, but it honestly came across as a bit of a snooze-fest that I had to slog through to get anywhere.
If you just want to dive straight in, I'd advise Forge of Mars. It has everything - Eldar, Space Marines, Adeptus Mechanicus, ominous alien deus ex machinas, Warp travel, psykers, Rogue Traders - about the only thing it doesn't have is the Sister of Battle. Go figure.
I hate the fact that you can say this with a straight face in the current year, I hate the fact that I could understand it all, and I *really *hate the fact that you stand a good chance of being spot on.
This fucking timeline, I swear.
In a perfect world, they'd just give the entire thing to the guy who did the Astartes fan video and call it a fucking day.
But, because GW and Amazon hate money, I'm sure they'll find people whom absolutely loathe Warhammer 40K and run it into the ground.
Cause of the characters in question.
Scarred leader of the right-winged militia-themed camp that initially comes across as an asshole? Actually not that bad, anyone can leave his camp if they want, and while they're starving, they don't have to worry about little things like enslavement and rape.
The kind-looking old granny who's all sweetness and cuddles for a little girl the MC brings in out of the wilderness? Nah, she's a pathetic, raging bitch who's basically running a slave-camp for some whackass reason.
It's a low bar to clear, but I don't mind pointing out when writers actually make characters that would normally be untouchable in other media out to be horrible people.
Stealth's a big element of gameplay in Days Gone, actually. Sure, you can go in guns blazing, but sneaking up to shank zombies in the back for a one-hit kill is weirdly satisfying.
The 'forced stealth' parts are just when you can't kill anyone.
Not really. The scene in question the article is bitching about is a flashback that doesn't take place during the 'current' time, game-wise.
Days Gone is a weird game, at times. They really go out of their way to flesh-out the characters, even if the story itself isn't going to blow your mind.
I do like the mad-max style 'ride your motorcycle across post-apocalyptic rural Oregon', though.
Days Gone is the kind of game that if I had gotten it at full price, I would have been disappointed.
It's a little schizo in places, mechanics/game play wise. Plays itself up as a survival sandbox horror/zombie, but it's really... not? The story itself isn't going to blow your mind, but if there's one thing I do like about it, is the characters. The writers had no problem creating characters that you absolutely fucking loathe, and I admit I'm a little bit impressed by that.
Actual white is a bold, vibrant, intense color that's a bitch to clean and I wish you well with that, cause that's one hell of a brave choice.
And yes, natural wood is awesome, and my preferred building material of choice.
I absolutely loathe modern interior design choice.
I know why they do it. Pale, chalky, pastel colors, meant to act as a bland canvas that you can do anything with in terms of furniture and/or decoration without causing any garish color clash.
Which, co-incidentally, means anyone can move in at any time and instantly customize their space without having to invest in time or effort. It's built for the rootless cosmopolitan, the poor bastard stuck in an never-ending cycle of moving and relocating and never having to think about how things'll look five years from now. It's all bland, mindless goyslop for the eyes and brain, and dear god do I hate it.
Not my fault the writers at Vox are so brain-dead retarded that they can't understand linguistic drift of a statement written near three hundred years ago.
This isn't really up for debate. Political scholars and politicians of the time write over and over and fucking over about how the second amendment should be interpreted, and it basically boils down to 'all free men should be armed'.
"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun." - Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778
It's ethnic/tribal nepotism in a nutshell, basically.
What people don't get is that everyone - E V E R Y O N E - except whites do this. Everyone. Blacks, Indians, Mexicans - once you reach a critical junction in terms of whom is filling what positions, it starts a cascade effect that soon takes over the company.
The reason jews are so much worse about it when you start noticing is due to several reasons - the entire 'I'm not white, I'm jewish!' stereotype, the shared universal experience of being jewish(yes, even if they're secular, they still grow up in the environment) and the social pride/confidence of having an assured ethnostate they can always run to if things go bad.
'Anti-semetic' is just 'Dat's waycist!' for jews. It allows them a marvelous social shield that deflects a horrendous amount of attention and a gargantuan amount of bad behavior(like some other people we could mention). It's why they freak the fuck out when you start seeing memes of, say, how many heads of large news media corporations are of a certain ethnic/religious persuasion FOR SOME REASON. (For comparison, see 13/52. Or 13/60 nowadays, who the fuck knows.)
Jews just get more exposure because they've taken over said positions of power and refuse to let others in their clubhouse, because that's how it works for everyone else. Except whites. Indians in IT, places where blacks make up more than 50% of the population, and I'm sure there are areas where muslims are quietly taking over where no one can talk about it because waycism.
While I'd love for people to wake up to this, I have no idea how to go about nudging them toward that. Aside from having them live in South Africa for five years, I dunno. Worse, certain elements of white society just adore the idea of selling their culture/heritage out to the exotic other, and I don't see that stopping any time soon.
God, I fucking wish it was rhetorical.
I've seen 3 auditors turn what was at the time a fifteen minute process into over a hour and fifteen minutes. Then only to blurt out an excuse that the electronic system they were messing around with(their own system, at that!) must have been updated and changed.
If you're like me, and ever done IT work, I know the exact expression that's on your face right now.
In another job, we had a technician that was so bad I got pulled in as a favor after I had left the job just to tell them what was wrong and what needed to be fixed.
And right now I'm dealing with a regional governmental bureaucratic takeover of a certain set that's basically ruined all the automated supplies request I need to do for my job. And because my company doesn't have the money to basically bribe people for said supplies, it really, really sucks to be me.
What's worse is that I have to be really, really careful whom I even breath this aggravation to. Cause the moment I point all this out... well. You can imagine.
Yes.
I like to play the game called 'spot the major local demographic' based off how grocery stores are structured.
The same exact chain can have radically different appearance and structure depending on who they're selling stuff too.
Near a ghetto? Not really different than your typical grocery store, complete with all the liquor kept 'locked up'(IE, behind the service counter.) Good neighborhood with a decidedly white majority? Like an open-air market/buffet(except indoors) with a massive alcohol section with all the good stuff on easy access and display.
Try it some time.
