You can always count on at least one "Hey I'm a black male, my opinion is more important than the other black males" poster showing up when something "black" is getting shitted on in the OT.

Have you been under a rock? That's your typical stupid idiot fuck trump supporter right there. The same folks that vote R, while yelling at the left to not take their Medicare. They yell at the people who want EVERYONE to have medical care, while voting for the ones who think the creation of Medicare was a mistake.

Guaranteed there will be thousands of conversations like this on Facebook today..showing the world just how fucking imbecilic they really are..

Oh, I expect it happening. And they have no one to blame but themselves for their foolishness.

I feel the need to be productive in learning about the world and doing stuff outside of my major.

Anyone know of any how-to podcasts or something?

Cancellation

Using thread replies as a metric of how many people would buy the game doesn't make sense. This isn't 8000 separate people replying in the cancellation thread, or 1000 separate people replying in the other threads.

The closest you can come are actual sales numbers on Xbox One. In the US, Platinum's Transformers game sold around 80,000 copies on the One. And that's not even a game with Microsoft's full backing and marketing behind it. If the game had gone forward, it would've AT LEAST hit that. ReCore had Microsoft's backing and it's also sold around 80,000 copies, and how big of a deal was ReCore REALLY?

Using a thread size in general is a decent metric on a games popularity imo (obviously not in all cases, since GAF be on some other shit when it comes to what is popular here compared to the mainstream)

Destiny had more OTs than Ja Rules attempted career comebacks and that's an insanely popular game.

What I was saying, magically more people are bitching about a game being cancelled than people who actually cared about it in the first place. It's a Platinum game, they had more flops than Marcus Smart playing thru 4 quarters of basketball.

They've only had two bad games, but sure, I see what you mean. Threads aren't a decent metric of anything, though.

Exactly.
People are holding discussions about things that they find some interest in the product, or the production. It's not equivalent to how many would purchase just because they have something to say. Complaining about people talking about things is.. well...

I think I'm going to do a deep dive into Dragon Ball. I've already pretty much finished all of Star Wars Canon, Harry Dresden, and am finishing up Mistborn, so I think that will be my next big canon thing. I'll come back after and do Cosmere.

Timeout, they have had two actual bad games. That's it. Now selling, that's a different subject

"Hi Gaf!

This is my first post, definitely nothing wrong with that, and I just had to post in the "Does anyone else but me not like the Black Panther thread?" for my very first post. Anyways, yes, as a black male, I'm sorely disappointed by the Black Panther. It was a film that was sorely needed, but the execution is botched 'Straight out of Compton level' stupidity.

My biggest issue is the lead. I can find fried chicken with more acting ability than Chadwick Boseman. He is this movie's biggest offense, and the reason why I have zero faith in Black Panther 2. I groaned excessively when I heard he was cast as the Black Panther, but I was willing to give him a chance based on amazing Marvel films like Thor and Captain America 1 but this BLM thug just lacks charisma and any sort of 'swag' in his performances.

This was supposed to be a movie that made being black cool again and made white people like my 'bae' Tendril Lahren comfortable, but this movie lacks anything fun or enjoyable. Chris Evans is the only character having any fun on this project and he only appears in a cameo. Just awful.

I just knew no one would like this movie since I didn't like it and I'm black, so don't worry white posters, it's not just you. I absolutely hated all the positivity surrounding it at release, but kept my mouth shut around my black friends because I didn't want to seem "unhip". But we as black people deserve better than Obama terrorist garbage.

IMO as a black man, this movie is bad. Weak performances, dialogue, plot holes, and script. First Marvel film that was just terrible.

But, the Chris Evans cameo was definitely great. There should be more of that."

I expected that thread to be full of shitting on Colter and
Diamondback
, but what got me was that every single aspect was ripped to shreds. Every black female lead, every male black lead, every aspect of the story. But the music and anything that could be mistaken for blaxploitation was okay. They really REALLY let it all out in there.

Fuck.
FUCK.

What if Trump pardons Dylan Roof?

I mean. It's a problem that I can't say that that won't happen. We're through the looking glass.
