Larry Elder is a fine example of a broken clock.

In honor of the Robosen Megatron release, here's where some of the fandom is. . . .
 

 
 
 

Megatron is one of those unusual cases where a change ended up being better.  Him having a tank alternate form is definitely cooler and more fitting, imo.....as opposed to a dinky little normal-sized handgun.

It was always weird everyone turns into some form of transportation then Megatron over here is like "naw fuck mobility, I'm speccing into raw damage."

100% agree. I honestly doubt we'll ever see the handgun version of the character ever again. 

Yyyyeah....I'm not going to pay any attention to anything Velma is doing because it really kind of seems they're just changing stuff and trying to be different for the sake of being different and catering to nobody in the process.  I'm hoping that people have learned there lesson and decided not to hate watch the 2nd season cause I'm definitely not going to.  I already got spoiled on what happens to Velma in my Twitter feed and I just....could not care less.   I'm just going to focus my energies on things like Fallout. 

I will never understand the idea of hate watching anything. If I don't like something I just drop it. I have betting things to do with my time than watse it watching something I don't like. 

The short is that bastion was one of the main people behind Operation Zero Tolerance as well as a key member of the Purifiers.  He eventually merges with Nimrod after meeting Master Mold
 

I'm thinking he's going to make him a Prime Sentinel 
 

I feel that it is a direct result of people dividing up into their own online echo chambers. Group think does not spark the imagination. 

Since I forget that I had pre-ordered Stellar Blade from Amazon. I have the digital and physical version. Maybe I can sell the physical copy as the "Hard R" Edition. 😉

It's honestly pretty disappointing to me that imagination seems to have been the biggest casualty of the Internet age. Video games give us the opportunity to enter worlds nothing like our own or that transcend ours in a lot of ways and step into the shoes of characters that aren't like us, and yet all some people can do is ask why these worlds aren't more like the real world.

I don't know what Grummz is on with this one. Classic case of losing the plot IMO. This isn't some licensed property altered by SBI. This is an original game from Abubakar Salim. It doesn't matter if SBI is involved or not. It's his game, his idea, his concept. He can do what he wants with it. 

Sure, if you want to be that passissmistic about things when they don't align with the narrative you push. 
 
I've seen this reaction in real life with my own two eyeballs but I don't run around with a camera all the time like a nutcase recording peoples children to compile evidence so all I have is the "clearly paid child actors" in this video. sorry. 

No it doesn't. There's tons of great originally black characters to, and successful to boot. This arguments even lazier then the race swap is. 
 
Yea sure change even more about the story, the "originals" a pretty shitty adaptation of the book anyway, might as well change more then they already did. It's not like they ever stuck to the story to begin with. 

This reminds me of how sick and damn tired I am of people cheering hand me down characters. It's the laziest most obvious type of pandering there is and people want to pretend otherwise. It's not a flex. It's an insult.

Discussed to death but girls want the character they like to like them (a reflection of themselves). Boys like to pretend to BE the character regardless of the main character's appearance. To this degree is why it's so easy to get a reaction of "Blariel" looking "like me" to little girls. 
 
It's also the LAZIEST way to represent a character and to approve of this means minorities cannot get a good character unless it was originally white. The easiest solution is to make (for example) an original mermaid NOT called Ariel. You can STILL call it The Little Mermaid because it doesn't directly refer to Ariel. Heck let's take it a step further, let's give Black NOT ariel a new BFF and make her a latina to appeal to that audience, OH WAIT it has been done!

She was deaf too so there you go, brownie points for that community. Point is, race-swapping is lazy. Do better Disney, do better everyone else.
