FoldableHuman posted:I men, NitW isn't exactly coy about its real world parallels painting the modern Christofascist Republican platform as a literal death cult that deserves to die at the bottom of a collapsed mine shaft and be forgotten for all time. We already know that NitW's Satanic conspiracy plot is stupid, no need to underline it like that.

It would be interesting as to what constitutes Youtubes new anti-gun propaganda guidelines. The Great War does crossover specials with a gun expert about the various firearms used by all the major warring nations but it is presented in an entirely educational manner. Would it be safe? From Youtubes track record in letting its bots do all the policing probably not.

FoldableHuman posted:Yes yes yes, you can't get off to anything but Finnegans Wake, you don't need to remind every one every single time. The growing laundry list of evils that Night in the Woods appears to denounce - capitalism, Baby Boomer selfishness, and now Christofascism and Republicanism - brings to mind the "flexibility" of the conspiracy in Get Out as a metaphor, where it seemed to stretch to cover any possible social issue related to black American life. The truth is that the metaphor covers it all so well is because it doesn't cover much anything in particular. And as with Get Out, with NitW there's extreme evasiveness about what the central evil is on a literal level as opposed to metaphorical one: despite being a story that hinges upon evils committed by a religious cult, absolutely no one cares about the theme of cultism except as a rhetorical device ("death cults"). Like any Lovecraftian story, Night in the Woods is crap about saying anything about the topic, because Lovecraftian horror's reliance on evil cults is a product of reactionary mind fearful of and obsessed with conspiracy - it is in itself cultism.. It's idiotic to say that the game's central metaphor denounces "Christofascism" when it's exactly the kind of thing you hear from Christian fascists: Satanists making people disappear into secret underground spaces.

If they actually want an anniversary anybody will care about they have to fire Michaud and make amends with everyone they’ve pissed off. So nobody will care.

Jake's take on the whole thing if anyone is interested Think i saw bane getting involved in there too. Less "Walker was right" and more "bout time you left the sinking ship, why didn't you support Lordkat when he was talking about this" from a couple people. Can we just keep this thread open a bit longer until this all plays out? Better to end than start on drama. It's taking me back a bit to the days of Reviewtopia.

somekindofguy posted:"bout time you left the sinking ship, why didn't you support Lordkat when he was talking about this" Because Jason is a serial abuser who largely spends his time sending his time sending his "LK Army" after random teenagers on Tumblr, various sexual assault survivors on YouTube with 200 subs, his buddies' ex-girlfriends, and basically anyone lse he considers to be "cringy." Just in case anyone's wondering why very few people supported LordKat when he was talking about this.

Cringe culture was a mistake. Much like everything. Now I have to wonder if the peanut gallery over at the CA forums is still chugging along, making knockoff reviews and aspiring to something greater. Ah nostalgia.
