really? let me try: "procedurally generated"

This one right here is my least favorite.

Especially when they for some reason release platformers with it. Thinking about something like Celeste but the levels are randomly built instead of properly crafted. A fate worse than death for this guy

Digital tradable card games is also another turn off, but Magic the Gathering Arena has turned out to be the fantastic exception to this.

This is like the opposite for me. I'm almost guaranteed to look into a game at least a little bit if metroidvaniaing is involved.

I do have exceptions to pretty much all of the genres I don't enjoy, in this case it is Nioh. I love that game to death.

Banned content includes photos, videos, and GIFs of human genitalia, female-presenting nipples, and any media involving sex acts, including illustrations. The exceptions include nude classical statues and political protests that feature nudity. The new guidelines exclude text, so erotica remains permitted. Illustrations and art that feature nudity are still okay — so long as sex acts aren’t depicted — and so are breastfeeding and after-birth photos.


Bowsette cosplay nipples no longer allowed

Bowser nipples are still okay though.

I think a Dark Souls where maybe only 10 things try to kill you all game, instead of everything at all times every 10 feet, would be a cool experience.

Oh I misread the part at the bottom so drawn naked ladies can still be posted they just can't be sexual, doing sexual things or look like they're turned on.

You can have a naked lady who just woke up at 6 AM after getting to sleep at 3 AM opening the fridge to get breakfast that's allowed. She's miserable, tired and hungry but at least she's not horny.

I wouldn't mind a boss rush mode in these games, because honestly that is all I ever liked about the FROM Software games was fighting the bosses.

Tumblr was good for porn until they made up log in to see adult content, and honestly I can barely be arsed to turn on Incognito mode I'm not gonna log into Tumblr too. I imagine that Reddit will follow suit in time, and then there will be no porn online any more. Oh wait... no, I'm getting word that there will still be gallons of porn available. Gallons and gallons.

How bizarre. Did I miss some controversy over this that Tumblr is responding to, or did they decide to drive away half their userbase for no reason other that puritanical morals?

Apparently Apple pulled their app for child porn.

Instead of deleting the child porn, they decided to ban all porn.

currently percolating theory is that Brands and Investors interested in the tumblr social media platform aren't appreciative of tumblr teens putting the bowsette crown on tide pods and A Folding Chair and having them gently caress

To me it seems like the death-knell of social media platforms is when people realize how little they actually need them and how there are a million alternatives that provide services that are as good or better. Tumblr is so firmly in this category that frankly it kind of amazes me they are still relevant at all. I just can't imagine this is something they'll be able to come back from, it's not like they have a new market to replace the one they're going to be losing.

A while back I remember a sex positive friend telling me about a blog entry by a retired adult film star (I can't remember who it was), who basically said there was a few tips to ethically conusming porn, I remember one tip being try to avoid amateur stuff that gets titled with keywords like "ex-girlfriend" and anything else that seems revenge porny. There was some other stuff but I can't find the link, I think it also suggested that you try to avoid certain tube sites, since some offer a royalty system and others don't.

Tublr banning adult content is somehow more confusing than Playboy trying the same a few years ago. Like with Playboy they at least actually do (or at least used to) sometimes have good articles. What does Tumblr have other than porn and a community that actually lives up to ideals of a strawman SJW?

Hahaahhaahaha, tumblr is now a dead platform, congrats to the investors who demanded this thinking it'd be a remotely good idea, a shitload of people are going to exodus to something else which will became super popular now, the cycle rinses and repeats

Also knife guy is the best youtube but I am pretty terrified of how his alchemical knifecraft keeps growing more powerful, I soon expect to see poo poo like STRONGEST URANIUM KNIFE, SHARPEST FLESH KNIFE, and eventually KNIFE MADE OF APOCALYPSE
