The secret to Rockstars success is ripping off movies. Vice city was just scarface, what else do they have for this? Blow, maybe.
Florida. It's ersatz miami.
It was meh. All the women in the trailer appeared conspicuously "realistic" with thick to fat proportions.
Calling it now:
-Plot will be woke girlboss concerned that the Vault climate control system is failing. None of the vault authorities listen to her specifically because she's a girl, ignoring she's a genius child prodigy or whatever. So she goes rogue to save the vault.
-girlboss MC will be an angry hectoring scold who yells and everyone with no charisma or charm, all viewers will hate her and journos will write shaming thinkpieces on how gamers are stupid pieces of shit for not watching..
-she solves easy problems with obvious solutions that any 5th grader could have figured out and gets hailed as the savior of the wasteland.
-the black guy is a brotherhood tech genius super smart hacker tech master and the brotherhood kicks him out for being too smart, he starts an interracial romance with the girlboss and they save the wasteland. Or he's gay, but otherwise the same.
-brotherhood will be openly fascist and prejudiced for no reason, they will invert the mission from saving technology to destroying it.
I knew it was going to be woke trash but it still boggles the mind. Making the MC female for a game series played 99% by men is insane.
I asked my wife if she was interested in the Fallout show.
"The what show?"
"Fallout. It's a post apocalyptic sci-fi western."
"Nah"
"What if I told you the main character was a girl?"
"Still nah."
"Wow, such internalized misogyny."
It's like women are not genetically programmed to respect men their age.
It's funny how every single leftist I know is a total corporate shill now, while still adamantly insisting "all rich people are right wing."
The real secret to getting a 'trad wife' is just dating a 20 year old when you're 30. Worked for me.
"Those nice pretty women are actually lying whores" is an interesting take.
Explain how this refutes that feminism is intra-female competition again?
hey babe, I was just like, really frustrated and shit, you know?
Trump authorized the shutdowns and massive money printing that caused it. Like him or not, it's true.
The left could always run with that and call it "Trump's inflation" but they endorse that fiscal policy so they won't.
Not to mention every metric indicates people ARE spending less.
Non-essential goods and entertainment are way down.
First off don't make assumptions, and second, it's an important distinction, and one of the things everyone gets wrong thanks to Hollywood. I am against spreading misinformation.
People don't press charges, the authorities do.
Civilians don't file charges, the District Attorney does.
Why would you tell anyone? No one cares about dead junkies.
I pointed this out to someone recently. If you look at the news Ukraine is always winning, winning, winning; Russia is always losing, losing losing.
However, I pointed out that Russia is always "losing" at a new town every month or so, and those towns they keep "losing" are always moving westward...
I think it's legit they're buttmad because the virtual character allows nerds to access women (in a fashion) that would be out of their league irl.
I knew a guy who was into kiddie porn and he claimed his entire collection was celebrities.
I used to be a hardcore 'physical copy only' guy until I bought Skyrim on PC and the only thing on the disc was a Steam downloader.
Consoles were a little better until current Gen where it's pretty much the same thing, most games do not ship with a playable game on the disc anymore so it's pretty moot. Or you get shit like Destiny 2 where if you try to install the original game the server will fucking erase it from your system.
It's just a hostile takeover. All charities are scams.
Given that Elemental was blatant race-mixing propaganda, this is blatant get-whitey propaganda. They're saying we hoard all the stuff and refuse to share (the irony being the left defends the actual hoarders). Typical Kulak style rhetoric. Buy guns and ammo.
I hope this doesn't cause any harsh backlash against innocent pedos.
Star Wars is a conservative fantasy fable, much like all classic fantasy (LotR).
It's a world where progress is bad, the past is a source of wisdom and purity, the future is darkness and oppression. The heroes are heroic because of their special blood and divine gifts, not because of their beliefs. They win by trying to restore the world to its past state, violence is not only okay but morally necessary. The villains are evil because of supernatural forces; there is no compromise, no way to solve all the problems of the world. The heroes have to remain vigilant and keep using righteous violence to thrash evil every generation or so. The heroes rule through divine right and their inherent superior gifts, the only people who are upset by this are wicked and evil.
Compare it to Star Trek, the progressive fantasy. In Star Trek the heroes aren't special, they're the most educated. Violence is seen as an inherent failure state, something that should be avoided at all costs. The past is a source of barbarism and ignorance, the future is abundance, enlightenment, and utopia. The heroes win by educating everyone and freeing them from the oppression of the past. Religious beliefs are seen as defacto bad. All problems are solvable, all conflicts are the result of resource shortfall or prejudice. The heroes rule through consensus and democracy, never by fiat.
People like classic Fantasy because it's conservative, and that's why hollywood keeps trying to destroy it. Consider Dune vs. Foundation; similar issue. Dune is the anti-Foundation, and it's a damn sight more popular. Dune is the argument that the galaxy is better off ruled by the violent warlord than the scientific consensus.
Homosexuality is noted by a low (or faulty) disgust reflex.
