This is nothing but an echo chamber, people just wanting to be outraged in order to feel important, but without actually doing anything important or changing anything. This is a topic for people who want to check off a little "I did a good deed today" box. So I gave up and decided this was a pointless topic that had no relevance, and so far i've yet to see a reason to change my mind back to how I use to feel. All i've seen from this issue is a bunch of people who aren't even affected by it, chase some celebrities off of Twitter.

I didn't have a melt down, i'm not even angry, i'm just trying to get you to think, but that's beyond your capabilities. I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt that you weren't mentally handicapped but you clearly are. You said yourself this is something you are really passionate about, but it sounds like you only care when everyone is agreeing with you.

I think the MGS lady has a dumb design but I don't actually care either. Also Ruddha is good and you should let him do his thing even if it isn't your thing. He's much like Kojima in that way.

Ok, be warned that I've never fought in real life. There are games that "simulate" fighting though. I suggest we fight IRL and in video game form, then average the results to determine the winner.

I think I might have hosed up my controller at some point because I can't really enter text with it anymore. I can't move the selection box off the middle of the screen, and it's acting like I'm trying to use the touchpad to enter text even when I'm not. Touching the touchpad does nothing, but clicking it in works. Is there anyway I can turn off the touchpad functionality for text input?

Is it set up to where you have to "steer" the cursor it with the gyroscope inside? I get that randomly with certain text screens when I'm not expecting it.

There are many issues in life that are systemic in scope and incredibly difficult for any single person or even large groups of people to change. That does not mean they are not worth having a dialog about, or worse dismissing them as non-issues. On the very topic you bring up, the discussion and outrage from fans has already elicited positive change, and many newer games in the past 1-2 years have had much better female character design, and in some cases developers have literally altered a character design due to fan response. I think that makes it more than a pointless topic.

Does Octodad actually support online co-op? I played the demo way back before the PS4 was released on a demo unit at a Sony and it was p. cool.

Just wanted to chime in about how loving bad this post is. My dude, the only way you can feel this topic is pointless or irrelevant is if you can't empathize with the people who are typically underrepresented and misrepresented in games who finally have a way to speak up about it. It owns and I love that it frustrates you. Keep bein' mad online in 2015.

A "pointless topic with no relevance" that you are very concerned with repeatedly posting about.
