  1. Yeah letting him go free instead of focusing on getting the wrongfully convicted brothers out of jail is the way to go 🙄
  2. After reading through that Twitter/X thread, someone that isn't to be taken seriously.
  3. Bitched about the quality of the render or bitched about her being scanned into another game. I've only seen the latter.
  4. It's amazing how multiple developers across several games can model Debra Wilson with no problems. 🤔
  5. Just based on what I've been told the main issues seem to be that pronunciation in Spanish and the general feeling that it's label non-Spanish speakers came out with. However given the touchiness of the term, I just don't use it. I don't even like typing it. The reaction I've gotten is the white people calling black people the N word reaction. I know it's causing issues for progressive candidates but that would be going into politics, so I'm going to leave it at that. Edit: @RSG3I'll keep it short. Dont assign an opinion to me that I did not express. I have no patience for people putting words in my mouth. Feel free disagree with any position I actually have.
  6. You seem to be more concerned with moving goalposts and arguing against what you believe people have said. Than actually having a true back and forth discussion. I'm about equity. The same standards should be applied to everyone evenly. I shouldn't have to spell that out for you. It something I bring up often across multiple subjects.
  7. Spanish speakers find neutral language offensive. I've seen too many people, co-workers and friends, get triggered at mere mention of "latinx". I've straight up been told by multiple Spanish speakers that they'd rather be called a slur.
  8. I'll take dumbass takes that add nothing to discourse for $1000 Alex.
  9. 1.) To be perfectly honest, I don't find it to be a debate as much as disengenous discussion with frequently moving goalposts. 2.) These discussions only seem to pop with Western developed games. Eastern developed games on the same platforms often using the same game engines don't generate this discussion. 3.) There are changes. Why are there changes is the question. Why does the "why's does matter crowd" toss that mantra aside any time there is an attractive female character? Why does their standards conventially leave out male characters? Especially when it's proven that both men and women prefer attractive characters. Titantic didn't set box office records because Leonardo D'Caprio was an average looking dude. Attractive female characters are apparently killing women like Hogwart's Legacy was "killing trans people". I guess physical copies of both games are breaking into houses and the blu-ray discs are flying around taking people out like Talec from I Come In Peace
  10. My query is this. Why doesn't that question fall on the people making the changes in the first place?
  11. The SF3 ports are something else. It seems like they are all off to varying degrees. Is there a port considered legit? 3SOE seemed to be well received from what I remember. It's still ridiculous that 30th had worse netcode that 3SOE.
  12. The craziest thing to me is when he got locked up for the memorbilia situation, it did seem like the dudes ripped him off. He was basically trying to sell shit on the low to get around the judgement against him from the civil case. So the dudes thought they just steal from him. Given how well publicized the OJ murder case was and how violently Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman were killed, you have to have some boulder sized balls to rip OJ off. They were surprised when OJ rolled up on them with the heat demanding his shit back? Did you see what he did to the mother of his kids!? That level of stupidity that should be in the Guiness Book of World Records. Nicole and Ron, I feel bad for. Those memorabilia dudes? Nah, you know what you dealing with and you still try to pull something. They are lucky OJ didn't kill them.
  13. When your boss is white but you asked for a raise last week....
  14. Sad story but kudos to pediatrician for taking in this child. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/israel-hamas-war-gaza-rafah-baby-unknown-al-shifa-incubator-malak-rcna146150
  15. I've never had any issue with Nintendo support. I remember when my Wii's GPU started going bad. I called Nintendo and even though it was out of warranty, they fixed it for free. They sent me the Fedex label, I shipped it off, I got it back in week. Only service nightmare I had was Sony with the PS2 and I wasn't the only one.
  16. @RSG3I see Norm MacDonald. I hit thumbs up. I had forgotten how much he used to shit on OJ.
  17. @MillionXI wonder if you told AI that you wanted Thundercats in Space and Thundecats underwater would it spit out Silverhawks and Tigersharks? 🤔
  18. My best friend has been 3D modeling for decades. This situation annoys him more than it does me. He thinks it's being done on purpose. Given his experience and expertise. I'm going to take the his word for it. I've known him for 33 years out of the 44 years I've lived on this Earth. So I'll trust him over some dude on Twitter/X. That aside, I'm thinking of things Quantic Dream did to 10 to 15 years ago. It didn't seem to be a problem for them. So I'm to believe that more advanced hardware and more mature development tools makes this more difficult? And only for one gender? We got mysognistic development tools now?
  19. Which is even more hilarious because... As for Episode 5.... How they packed so much into one episode and still have it be exceptional is beyond me. Beau DeMayo can write his ass off. That man has serious talent. I'm glad he got season 2 in the can. They need to find some way to get him back unless he's done something criminal. I can't see anyone else coming in and doing this good of a job.
  20. I was homesick yesterday. I watched the episode 5, was left speechless, and then watched all the videos of every losing their shit after watching it. Unless Beau DeMayo commited a crime, they need to bring that dude back. X-Men '97 is absurd levels of good.
  21. I did the same thing with Bobby Caldwell when he passed away. I watched a bunch of people watch his "What You Won't Do For Love" video and flip out when sings "I came back to let you know" stands up from the bench and you see he's white. One dude actually stopped the video and called his mom on his cellphone to ask her about it. 🤣🤣🤣
  22. Okay, I want to make sure I'm not in The Twilight Zone or something. I keep seeing story's and videos about "Natasha Ramos claiming" to have sang Jenny From Block and people being shocked. I know for a fact that this all came out more than decade ago. Did I miss something?
  23. Female characters in Western developed games are being made less attractive than the models they are scanned from. This isn't even debatable. You can debate why it is occurring or the rationale behind it. Unless they explicitly say so of course, however you can't say that it isn't occurring. Also rolling out Stellar Blade is just weak, at least roll out a woman with an actual unrealistic body type. Or pick someone from a fighting game, most of us here play or have played them at some point. Plenty of options there. I mean if you going pull something from Shift Up's catalog use one of the numerous female characters the lead developer's wife designed for their other games. It can runs counter to the general narrative that assumes attractive female characters only designed by dudes but hey didn't stop the Bayonetta criticism. So have at it. At least Bayonetta's body is actually unrealistic. I'm not. He's an idiot. The worst kind of numbskull. A modern social media moron. The type that doubles down even when they are clearly wrong which only accentuates how dumb their initial take was in the first place.
