you kind of can, sort of. if you stay for dinner with him at the beginning of the game he becomes your friend and lets you spread your mom's ashes, and the credits roll. it gives new meaning to the game's "theme song" by the clash

Enough is enough UbiSoft. We’ve sat through your multicultural lectures and your preachy games aimed at degenerates and miscegenators. We’ve tolerated it in the name of gameplay design and innovation. But no more! Far Cry 5 is an insult to your fanbase, the Americans who make up the majority of your customers, and it’s time you woke up to that fact. Change this, or cancel it.

because somebody who's unhappy with "miscegenators" is going to want multiracially harmonious groups? :thunk:

its basically like a gta game only in the countryside, if that makes sense. a countryside vigilante simulator. first game was set in fake micronesia, second was in africa, third was somewhere in pacific, and the fourth was in asia, so you get whats' the antag like in all of them.

fast forward to this nerdrage - farcry 5 takes place in montana, and the main antagonist is a white hipster pastor leading a band of white necbeard doomsday prepper catholic cultists

Wanna run with my crew huh? Rule cyberspace and crunch numbers like I do?


Oh god its so great

quote:

Have the villains simply be misguided patriots forced into making their own nation vs. the will of an oppressive over-government, construed of all the people they turn their wrath against in their immediate surroundings. Their brutal physical and sexual violence towards their oppressors will then be explained as a reaction to harsh government policies and taxation, to show that both sides are wrong.

I mean can't we show both sides to this complex issue? I mean sure rape and murder and stuff... but what about taxes you guys? They sure are high!

I especially like the whole "You can tell who rules a society by who you're not allowed to criticize" contrasted with "You're not allowed to show right-wing white people as the villains". Plus, WRT the whole "Just add a black/Hispanic or three", Montana is 86% non-Hispanic-White, with .6% black and 3% Hispanic, and I'll bet anything those are concentrated in the cities rather than the countryside. Making the apocalypse cult exclusively white isn't reverse racism, it's simple realism.

Since I know there are dudes with random knowledge in here, I have a question. I am watching "The Battle of Midway" on Netflix, and I see all the fighter pilots carrying this flat board out of the cockpit. What is it?



3 pages late but

that's a TBF-1C avenger, and the pilot is indeed carrying the map/navigation board. it's a plywood board that is inserted int a little drawer right at the front of the cockpit. You can see it under the gauges in this pic:



and here's a GIS'd screenshot of the board pulled out from some lovely game



e: the avenger is not a fighter, but some fighters, inc. the F6F hellcat which would have been present at Midway also had the same thing

it's a blast but i am already being left behind by the sperglords and lifefree teenagers

for about 2 weeks i was able to keep up, but i've put like, i dunno, 20 hours into it in total and the top players are already in the thousands. it's how every online game goes. they aren't for adults or people with lives outside the game

however i am still able to enjoy it, at least, by playing it as arma, crawling everywhere on my belly and being extraordinarily cautious, and getting like 1-2 kills max but being in the top 5 every match just by attrition so that's p cool
