If there's one things the Romans did it's segregate people by modern race categories. Roman legions were also mostly non-Celtic or German, so...

Also lol, 90 years ago there's no way someone like him would be considering Italians white. He'd be Anglo-Teutonic all the way.

There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.

Yeah, wops aren't white! Plus if you know anything about Italian history there are plenty of people in the south who are even less white if you know what I mean...

Isn't Frank N Furter an arch manipulator with his own castle and the ability to bring people back from the dead? Sounds like he might be a better choice for staying alive in an apocalypse than a guy who burns through a hundred bullets just to kill two guys.

Of course, his conditions for keeping you alive might not be exactly favourable...

Online Famous people Game Grumps made a dad-themed dating simulator

Some one drew all the Daddies as Mommies. The fat Dad's genderbend is a not-fat woman with giant tits.

Artist came under fire from people who view the concept of genderbends as transphobic and people who view drawing a fat character thinner is fatphobic.

There's also something about an ending that was unfinished in the code of the game, not in the actual game, that got people super mad.

Something about a cult? Like I hear people mad and going "EVIL GAY PEOPLE TROPE" but man, I've played some otomes, and that's just a weird otome thing. They have weird comedy/wrong genre endings hidden in there sometimes. It's just A Thing.

Also IT'S NOT EVEN IN THE GAME OR FINISHED CODING OR ANYTHING COME ON. It's like being mad at GTA for Hot Coffee!

It's perfectly apt. Everyone who got mad about Hot Coffee was at best extremely ill informed and at worst using it to disingenuously advance their own personal agendas.

What Plom Bar said was exactly what I meant. Getting mad at that was also dumb because it wasn't in the released game, it was a thing left over in the code.

How petty do you need to be that even if 5% of attractive stuff made is appealed to the opposite gender then these guys flip their poo poo and have to correct it.

An employee of the company chose to create it and put it in the game, and didn't so much as `#ifdef` them out of the production version. It's appropriate to hold the company responsible for its employees. If you don't think the content is objectionable, that's fine. If you agree that it's objectionable then it's appropriate to criticize Rockstar for its presence in the final game.

On a level, I agree, but the artist in question isn't a dude, and also you'd have a hard time convincing me that this particular art was done with malicious intent.

Swapped gender art is much more common than whatever that scenario is, drawn by fanartists of both genders, but slightly more by women. It's actually a decent creative drawing exercise for artists who have trouble designing their own characters or want to leave their comfort zone.
