I got my first windows 10 blue screen ever yesterday waking from sleep. My pc has been having some weird problems lately and I'm pretty much just riding it out until something fails or is more than just a minor inconvenience.

@MischievousTomato @nihil @matrix she's not crazy hot but she's got that cute weird look going on imo

@sjw it will be Ukraine only because they have unlimited backing from everyone else. Ukraine won't win the war, they'll have other people win for them.

@BigTLarrity every time I see Tifa or Italy now that's all I think of

@WashedOutGundamPilot @CatLord this is what confuses me about niggers who run and women who abort. If I got a girl pregnant I'd devote the rest of my life to that kid without a question. I'd pick up a third job if I had to.

I've seen a lot of guys talking about this in regards to God of War, wanting kids after playing it. I got that feeling listening to Blue October and playing Last of Us.

@matana tbh I'd rather take this than the really overemphasized turns that some games have. But yeah it is still pretty dated. It's a matter of raw function over how pretty it looks, which is most modern Pokémon in a nutshell lol.

@matana @RikaDerufu Mario sunshine has the best water graphics in any game, makes me thirsty

@matrix he'll do it anyway, but you can rest easy knowing he'll never forget

@xianc78 ffxv did pretty well, I thought. It kept getting updates for a while and they had a lot of cross promotion. If I remember right, there was something about the pre-orders not being very good. I'm interested in 16 but I'll have to wait for it to come out and see what others think.

@xianc78 I actually feel kind of bad for yanderedev lol, it's a lesson in not promising things you can't follow through on that most of us learn at some point, it's just unfortunate that his point had to be one of the biggest video game blunders of the modern era.

@PhenomX6 @xianc78 @deprecated_ii it's important to keep it refined, but if someone wanted to include something political in their game, I wouldn't want to stifle that specific discussion per se. It's the random bullshit political threads that are gay.

@PhenomX6 @xianc78 @deprecated_ii and by "game's thread" I mean a game from one of the users, not people talking about random AAA games not made by users on the site.

@PhenomX6 @xianc78 @deprecated_ii I think that's not exactly the best idea, because you can still have political themes, even modern ones, in a video game. Personally, I just wouldn't want people discussing politics outside of a game's thread and if it turns into flaming that's where it stops.

@xianc78 oh yeah that's a definite.

I don't speak for everyone, but I think the majority of people complaining about woke shit in games don't really want games that combat the woke shit, they want games that just don't have the woke shit in it.

Based devs helps too, though, when stacked on a game that's just a game. Take the recent interview with FFXVI's director or whatever, talking about how the are pretty much going to only be white people in the game because it is representative of the region the game takes place in. That's an answer that infuriates the people who would be asking that question, but we like to hear that because it means the focus isn't on pandering, it's about the actual game.

Maybe that's a bad example because the current state of Square Enix dictates there will probably be something woke in the game anyway, but you get what I'm going for I'm sure.

@heyarnold @xianc78 we're already on an instance with "game" in the title lol ;)

@xianc78 yeah it gets combative and extreme, which makes the other side more combative and extreme. Nobody wants to play a game that exists solely to shit on people and that's something I think the right tends to fuck up on. The politically correct still make amazing games, they just have weird trans propaganda in them and shit like a character being non-binary being listed in their bio and they just exist to be a token of inclusivity or something.

Games made by explicitly right wing people just tend to be way too overbearing and they feel like ass to actually play. It ends up just being kind of tacky.
