Well yeah but I mean in like. Being sold in bookstores and stuff. It's just odd because I don't see it myself where I live! I got used to it quickly because who cares.

Yeah there's a lot of cultural norms, both sexual and otherwise, that feel obvious and normal until you suddenly learn that it's just how the part of the world you're in behaves during this particular period of history. In particular, exactly how hidden sex should be varies an absolute fuckton, and what things count as sexual does too.

Almost certainly, remember there are a lot of old pervs who don't understand how the internet works and are crazy-reliable when it comes to buying those as they're released. Speaking of Japan's weird ways of doing things, I'd wager there are still adult VHS releases there for similar reasons.

The Colonel posted:i forgot about the full extent to which falcom got owned Looking through Google images, it appears that the Hardcore Gaming 101 article on Xanadu has a bunch of examples of the Ultima III manual art and the digitized version that was used in Xanadu. It's pretty damning, and wild that Falcom didn't see a problem with it until they invited the owner of the company they were infringing on in for a demo.

SHC was competent I guess but it was basically a minigame and they wanted $30 for it. It can't have sold well.

Phil Fish was a good game creator that said stupid things and gamers got mad but like to a stupid degree like they tend to and eventually he got sick of being told to kill himself every time he posted anything, so he dropped out of making games and posting online and then people got mad at him for that.

I was going through games I've downloaded over the years and usually deleting them after playing for a bit to see if I care about playing them completely since I'm not set on playing anything at the moment. That got stalled for a bit after spending a bit too much time on Slime Rancher for whatever reason. Maybe Prey or Radiant Historia?

I saw a commercial for God of War. Kratos tells his boy, “There are consequences for killing a god!”, and his loud, impetuous kid says, “How would you know!” Pretty dumb!
