I hope them talking about Steph Curry means we get a GBEast stream of them playing 2k16 while his stats are bumped up. I can always use more of Vinny "No one ever won shooting twos" Caravella.

Oh it does.

Not as much as you'd think, though, if you're talking in video form.

In fanart form, I bet it's endless. God. I can't imagine how much bad porn Overwatch fan art there is.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe

SFM videos featuring every female Overwatch character

page after page of Overwatch porn on rule 34

all those moments, lost in time, like wasted Hanzo ults

I really don't understand why the beastcast and bombcast seem to think world war 1 is some sacred beast compared to the other wars.

All wars suck, and they are all turned into fun playgrounds in games.

I get where it's coming from, but yeah, we're WAY past the point of being able to say "no this war, you can't!" It's a far, far bigger cultural conversation about how war and death is just routinely turned into entertainment. If BF1 serves as an inflection point for that I'm all for it, but I think it's way more fucked up that games like Medal of Honor turned the completely indefensible "war on terror" into entertainment than turning back to WWI, which at least has the benefit of not having any living survivors, and isn't still fucking on-going

I can totally understand someone just not being comfortable with games based on real wars (especially recent/active ones) in general, but yeah, the whole WWI/WWII thing seems arbitrary to me.
 
I'm listening through the Dan Carlin Hardcore History Road to Armageddon series hoping to learn about why exactly WWI is put in such a place.

Either all wars are sacred or no wars are sacred.

There's no arbitrary ranking of acceptable human devastation and suffering.

It's one of the only wars that hasn't been totally butchered by mainstream popular culture, I'd prefer it kept that way. A war that stands alone apolitically as fucking terrible and a black mark against humanity.

None of it makes me comfortable but the horse has bolted on WW2, Vietnam, Gulf etc etc.

You can call it dumb or whatever but I can live with that.

You want to talk about a war that killed an entire generation, it's the Civil War. And the only reason there aren't more games about that is because the guns were lame.
 
I kind of wish I got into Source Film Maker before it was entirely for porn.

It's a neat tool, it's still worth using.

yeah it's just the guns and not any of the political crap that comes along with the American Civil War.

If you think some dev hasn't salivated at the thought of the headlines and attention that could be generated by putting out a f2p Civil War shooter on Steam and forcing you on the initial boot to choose North or South, you're insane.

I was gonna say "well, at least they didn't put an arrow in his knee" and then took a second look. Fuck.

There was an arrow in the knee reference in Witcher 3 the other day when I was playing, and I didn't even mind it.
