Support NeoGAF

[RoyalLaFlame]

I'm glad that overall Japanese developers and especially Nintendo don't give a fuck about what those screeching beasts keep saying on that forum.


But I admit that the connection I see of the switch with these people makes me think of throwing my switch out of the window from the 22th floor. But then my switch tells me "Hey I got some Bayonetta's ass here for you" and then I just keep it.

PS: For a moment I was actually wondering if talking about Bayonetta's ass would get me banned here. That's how bad that forum fucked me up.

They worked around that by saying "She's in charge of her sexuality".

 

[InDaGulag]

To further clarify what I mean on the uniqueness of Cyberpunk outrage: Imagine if a user during the release of Persona 5 Royal implied that anyone who was giddy or supported Persona was homophobic/transophobic. Or demanded that all discussion on it was banned. And they repeatedly posted off-topic posts about it in other threads. As many right now are doing for Cyberpunk.

Those posters would've been banned for harassment of other users and trolling. But now it's different for Cyberpunk. Why?

Personna 5 had a subplot of a gay couple sexually harassing a underage boy and playing it off as a joke. And in another Atlus game, Catherine Full Body, the trans woman character opts to stay as a dude in the happy ending. Oh and the male protagonists reacts with horror/disgust when she shows him her genitals.

That sure as hell sounds worse than CDPR's one admittedly lame ass tweet, and one iffy in-game poster. Sure they could have done better on the voice-pronouns thing, but CDPR is at least giving an effort to improve on LGBT issues. Like I don't doubt they will release a patch to fix the pronoun issue. Atlus has done no such thing. Hell Japanese Atlus wouldn't even let American Atlus fix/remove the gay sex predator subplot.

Yet one could end up being banned on Era and the other gets a pass. Not to mention other problematic franchises like Fire Emblem with its pedo/loli dragon girl and Xenoblade with its hentai looking designs.

If going forward, any game with problematic elements is soooo bad, that it has to be banned and users shammed for being fans of it, then that must apply to all games with problematic elements.

Otherwise it appears like a lot of this outrage is only a shield to bash games/devs/companies certrain posters already dislike or had no interest in. It's nothing but self-gloating, users bragging about how woke they are (without making much of a personal sacrifice), and slapping down Era users who they feel don't share their same level of passion.

I do wonder if Cyberpounk/Harry Potter talk is banned, if some users will try to do this with other big franchises too?

A sick part of me wonders what would happen if Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Street Fighter, or Persona became the next target. That would start a civil war at Era for sure.

That's part of the reehibilitation process. You don't have to second guess your posts and play Russian roulette if you are going to get a ban here.

Can you imagine investing time in a place( and they make money from that ) where you have to thread on eggshells and probably get a ban anyway, and really noone wants you there but you only realise that when you get a ban for wrongthink.
Its crazy when you think about it, a lot of us in this thread have experienced it, its sick.

Glad I'm back at NeoGaf, shouldn't have left in the first place. I was more active at NeoGaf before and barely used ResetEra.

It's really good be back.

Yeah, it's fucking sick. How can a gaming forum manage to be such a place filled with snowflakes that can't even handle a proper discussion? On a fucking discussion forum?

I've check like 65 pages of this thread already and it's been an emotional rollercoaster, going from hilarious to downright depressing knowing some people actually act/think like that.

 

[Moon Grape Donut]

God imagine if in a quest you can choose the destiny of a trans npc in the game and a trans npc actually ends up dying, they will have a heart attack.
Also apparently the chick that sells V guns and implants is fuckable, n-i-c-e

the trans community will get no peace as long as this game is being discussed here. I am so damn tired...

......people realise they can log off the internet right.....??

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

......people realise they can log off the internet right.....??

No no, it's just that they don't want acceptance, they want to wipe everyone else that doesn't think like them.

They're not liberal, they don't accept others ways of thinking, they don't accept different backgrounds. They don't welcome open discussions, of course they don't want Cyberpunk being discussed there. Ignoring those threads is too energy draining and gives them anxiety.

I refuse to believe they can function in the real world. Everything triggers them, gives them anxiety. Working gives them anxiety, kids are too energy draining, waiting for their PS5 to arrive makes them depressed.

I wonder what company actually wants to hire someone like most of them there.

That's exactly what it is. Cancel culture is nothing but selective hypocrites. I was perm'd from a Marvel subreddit for my posts on GAF, but that same sub gives others who literally post racial slurs on Twitter a pass because they want the content that person makes.

The day that the persecution complex bubble is burst, a person is forced to accept responsibility for their own actions and life. That thought terrifies those people.

In recognition of International Transgender Day of Remembrance, we’ve made the decision to lock all threads about Cyberpunk 2077 for today (November 20th) to raise awareness about the concerns related to the publisher and the game. Originally the plan was to close the OT on this date as it was...

www.resetera.com

"Raise the concern" lol
They spamming every CDPR thread, pin thread about CDPR's transphobia on the first page, constantly bitching about it in every thread possible and still NO ONE GIVES A FUCK.
Why they think that locking CP2077 threads for a day will somehow have any effect and raise concern when clearly no one cares
There's nothing to be concerned about, all sane people know that.

Just wait until it's Friday and the trans kill count list is wheeled out again.

 

[SNPlayen]

I bet the staff at CDPR are all standing around having a laugh at Reee at the end of the day to blow of some steam

 

[eot]

people like to feel sexy and be chased to an extent. Why is having a sexy character a bad thing now? Is being sexy in real life not an actual thing to these people?

At this point it wouldn't surprise me if they start hating people for being sexy in real life too, no. A sexy cosplayer is perpetuating false standards about women!

Congrats Android Sophia! You changed the world! Cant wait to see Era implode and users leave because of that bullshit.

Well, at least there's an alternative gaming forum they can come to to get away from this politics bullshit.

 

[Ionian]

Ahhhh, close all the threads on the last day of Trans awareness week. And then close them all again after the game comes out.

A massive 126 posts in the thread that was pinned for a week, people seriously don't care but they will try to force people to!

By locking threads. Absolute morons.

 

[Ashraf’s Lioness]

Invited several of them. They're all afraid. Heard so many bs excuses. Not doing that again. Not worth it

Afraid? Well better suited to there then to be honest.

 

[Gifmaker]

The real funny thing being that ResetEra seems to think that anybody on this globe cares about their opinion that much that locking all threads for a day will somehow change... anything. They accomplish exactly one thing: drive users away who want to discuss the game (on a gaming forum, the nerv!).

 

[SoggyBiscuit]

Another mong gets brainwashed by the woke horde.

Look at meeee. I will be asking my friends to not buy the biggest game of the year!!

 

[Ionian]

That's savage, I hope to God it's someone setting up a troll account as it's too pathetic even by their standards.

 

[Small Change]

I only knew resetera by its terrible reputation until recently but this is one of the crazier things I've seen online. They acknowledge that noone outside of their madhouse cares about this at all but also seem shocked that their stickied thread hasn't shaken the industry to its core. The decision to lock threads is not only stupid as hell but shows that the staff aren't willing to put their money where their mouth is and ban discussion of the game from the site entirely. Too much lost ad revenue. The previews of the game seem very positive so it looks like things will be pretty hilarious on RE when it finally comes out and is a highly rated game that sells a ton.

 

[Dunkelgrau]

ResetEra is the new fascism, and they're too blind to see it.

They aren't Fascist, they are Bolsheviks.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Holy Cope.
Be on the look out for suicidal posts in coming weeks. CDPR is literally killing Trans children. Rise Up.

A video game forum allowing people to keep talking about their beloved video game.
Never, ever heard of such a preposterous, far-fetched thing in my life!

Oh, and a company with a big product to sell putting out previews to keep their product in the news cycle.
I guess this is unheard of outside electoral campaigning, eh?

Also, "the most hype-fueled release I've witnessed in my lifetime"? Have you even started school yet??

I really hope one day these people will make a grand reveal of themselves being trolls all this time. Surely a brain ought to implode from all the incoherence and narcissism otherwise?

I mean Ive already seen that there I think. They say that is a 'rare' occurrence that someone looks like that. Even with character designs, now I know the infamous trope with some female designs, but I mean of they make a female character look above average they critisize it and say its overly sexualized, when there happens to be more than enough women like that in society already.

Transgender Day of Remembrance 2020

Today is the 20th November; the Trans Day of Remembrance. It is a day where we remember the trans people reported murdered between last year until now. Where we reflect on the senseless violence that trans people face simply through existing. For obvious reasons this thread will have less...

www.resetera.com

That debunked list that excludes any actual circumstances as to why they died, prostitutes and people in South America bumping the numbers. I didn't notice a timescale on the post but having just 28 trans people that have died in America over however long a time period the data covers is nothing.

What they don't say is that a lot of trans people are killed by thier partners. How strange to omit that detail.

I'm amazed they even mention those statistics. 350 people is NOTHING on a global scale. And how many of those were murdered for being trans? I'm guessing they have no idea.

 

[TVexperto]

Best thing about ERA:

 

[Javthusiast]

Instagram and the music industry for example are run on sexualization. Every major female singer is constantly half naked in their music videos to up the views and revenue.

ReeesetEras arguments against it is that it's the womens choice, they are empowered by it.

Guess what lunatics, video game characters aren't even real, and it's the artists choice to sexualize them if they want. Stop being dumb ass hypocrites.

I wish I still had my account on Reee that was banned 2 years ago, so that I could post a Bible Black appreciation thread. Discussing what great representation it is for this trans awareness month. xD

 

[Ymir]

I'm amazed they even mention those statistics. 350 people is NOTHING on a global scale. And how many of those were murdered for being trans? I'm guessing they have no idea.

Plus how many of those 350 are literally just on the basis of them being trans? They love to lump deaths into an all encompassing field but some have just been they got in an argument with someone it escalated and someone died. It wasn't some premeditated murder because the person was trans and they wanted to eradicate any trans person for their very existence. 350 deaths might be one of the least targeted groups in the entire world.
