About misogyny? Video games have been driving away women from this industry making it a haven for cishet males that simply treats women unfairly. It bleeds into "real life" beyond just treating women poorly in games. We need equal representation in everything and I feel very strongly about that, regardless of what I like on the inside (I love looking at boobs. I could do it forever.) - but I realize that's a problem.

I don't entirely agree with this. Video games aren't driving women away, stupid fucking dumbasses are driving women away. You'll get absolutely no argument out of me regarding representation in video games. But the actual video games are a symptom, not the actual problem.

WHAT THE DOUBLE FUCK?

I log onto WWE Network for first time in a month and this place has been infested with 30 second ads. Can't watch ANYTHING without a 30 second ad first. Fucking HORRIBLE.

Getting rid of this garbage after Wrestlemania and that's no empty threat.

Well, there's a lot of stupid fucking dumbasses making games and unfortunately, they're the ones with power. Things are changing, thank god. Devs by and large have woken up and are going to #staywoke about it, because equal representation simply makes whatever the fuck you're making better, it really does.

I think if the roles were reversed it would have gotten more controversy for being a big scary man-ghost beating up and chasing a helpless woman character. PT kind of turned it upside down in my opinion, turning the man in to the helpless one and turning the woman into the powerful thing you fear.

Yeah but if it was the opposite it would prove that the smartest of sexes can defeat the brute force of man.

Goddamn it, can't we just make every fictional character in history a stocky smart lesbian already?

This shoot would typically work over a jabroni ass mark, if you worked it on Gaming side brother, but you shot the shoot at OT Community. The HULKAMANIACS will sandbag this work like the shoot it isn't. GOODNIGHT

Feel like you need to start ending your posts with PEACE to really get your point across like other fine posters.

It's not that big a deal. Not enough close to fucking Hulu. At all.

I don't disagree with you on this, at all, just for the record. I think it's a good idea.

Problem is the "helpless woman + big scary man ghost" thing is still going to be something people cling on to and try to turn into a huge controversy. Like the black people in Resident Evil 5. Or that one comic book cover that had Joker and a scared Batgirl on it.

Cishet getting dropped unironically in WrassleGAF now?

God damnit. I thought this sort of psuedo-progressive appropriation of academia terminology with the actual intent being the poster wanting to flex on others was an OT-thing.

Thanks, Blue Demon Jr for making me miss this. Goddammit.

Looking forward to seeing reymurdered.gif later. That's what's supposed to happen, I haven't seen or heard results (not avoiding them, just haven't seen em)

Need that PentaGOD Jr

100% agreed. Once the dumbasses either get smart or get out I think everything will get better.

I, for one, don't entirely want sexualization in characters to be done away with though. I'd rather see it become a more equal thing alongside male sexualized characters as well as characters who just simply don't need T&A to sell. (The amount of female sexualization in gaming in general does need to go down though)

Does the network have those "please, don't try this at home" unskippable thing that used to be on the dvds (it may still be, I have no idea)?

Kojima is basically what people wish David Cage was. A guy who has an eye on the cinematic/movie world but can also make an actually fun video game on top of it.

Edit: The other reason I think the Kojima-leaving-Konami thing is a big work is because I think Konami is well aware of the fact that they would fucking sink the moment Kojima stopped making their games. Kojima is the only thing that's kept them relevant for a long time now.

If Kojima leaving Konami was actually real I'd like to see him and some of his team merge with Platinum games.

They could make a Metal Gear combat game! With Platinum behind it, what could go wrong?

i dont even get what your point is with this unless you skip cutscenes your first time through a game (why?). every game runs into this on replays
Click to expand...
What I'm saying is I hope there's not a ton of cutscenes that need to be skipped. Kojima sucks. He didn't used to. That is all.

Video games are scary. The amount of people who take it to the next level is insane. Sales threads bring out all the crazies. Like that one poster who risked her job to post console sale data, got caught by US Bank or Citi or whatever, was told to not do it, but she still was going to do it anyway. Just crazy to me.

Nah, you're wrong here. Kojima is one of the last game makers/developers I still get excited about when I hear he's making a game. Bungie went downhill. Gearbox got exposed as fucking hacks. Inafune went from "the guy who made great Mega Man games" into the guy with a western boner who almost ruined Capcom. Valve is too busy selling other peoples games these days.

Kojima has yet to really hit a big dropoff like a lot of the other big name game devs.
