  • No, I know what a transphobic misandrist pretending to fight sexism when really they’re demanding special treatment looks like. Can I offer you a history lesson on how the Pro-Lesbian Feminist Daughters of Bilitis demonized gay men for “stealing womanhood from women” and spread conspiracy theories about transpeople being part of a secret government plan to send cisgender women to breeding camps while transgender women take over their roles in society?

    Or would you prefer the lecture of “White Feminism”, and its history with subjugating black women and actively working with the klan to lynch black men falsely accused of rape?

    No, I sadly know what a feminist is and won’t pretend it’s a label that good people who know their history wear.

    The Past “We made this game, and if you like it and want to support further development, we have these small DLC bundles, some skins or what not… Nothing fancy, but we wanna work on new maps to keep the game alive. There’s no obligation, the maps will be provided free of charge, we’re just happy the playerbase is so enthused”

    Now “We’ve made a new venue for buying skins, the marketing people call it a game? Look whatever, oh and while some of these skins look unremarkable, remember they’re only available for a limited time and those will cost 30% more than normal, but if you don’t buy it you’ll regret it forever when we take it away, either forever or until the GOTY edition.”

    (Seriously: Ban FOMO)

    Seriously it has gotten to the point where games are so content bare that people are talking about the DLC before the main game’s out.

    Mortal Kombat 1 made that mistake so hard it had to start giving skins away to try to goad me into playing it again. Great story, terrible gameplay… weirdly the opposite of Mortal Kombat 11… (Maybe it’ll help if your big DLC expansion wasn’t 2 characters that are literally just genderflipped recolors… How weird is that Cyrax and Sektor are female now. I mean, normally that’s fine whatever, but in the context that Liu Kang created this universe to be his ideal, did he just have a Rule 63 kink for Cyber Ninjas or something? Or did turning the Transhumanists into Transgenders seem like too hilarious a pun for him?)

    Disgraceful behavior…

    Right my Sims? looks to how horribly her game is glitching up due to owning more expansions than Maxis ever intended for Sims 4 to actually have

    But for real, the idea of an MMO still requiring a monthly fee in 2024 is ridiculous.

    in 1998 when it was a new concept and a lot of money had to go into maintaining the sheer volume of people using servers at a time when the internet couldn’t handle more than 20 Star Trek fanboys at once without using up all the bandwith, sure. I could see that.

    But in 2024 where even small Indie studios can afford regular free content updates and still make a profit from word of mouth game sales? Yeaaah no.





  • Your first mistake was using a swinging weapon in an environment where only thrusting weapons have any chance, your second was having such a poor grip that despite being able to breathe underwater and being a higher lifeform than man this dipshit was able to take the sword from you…

    Which goes back to problem one, as you had no way to swing the sword with enough force to do anything to the fish

    Obviously Earth has passed the test.

    They were given a task, found a group for whom the task would be ideal in both their willingness and ability to do it, and presented this group to the task giver. They did not force a slave class, they didn’t do a lottery, they didn’t see it as a chance to get rid of undesirables, they just sent people who legitimately wanted to go.

    There was no victim, thus there was no crime.

    If these aliens can’t tell, they’re morons who clearly didn’t think it through.
