Ciaphas posted:This is kind of where the cynicism comes from for me. It's still a net positive to be more representative, sure, but they only did it (or rather, leaders only allowed it, in limited form, from the small team writing these blurbs) in the all consuming pursuit of More Dosh I think this is also a fair reaction. Obviously I'm not the What Reactions Are Valid, cop, I'm just adding my +1 to the above.

If a company is big enough to have a board of directors and/or shareholders, never assume that they are doing anything because it's the right thing to do. They might decide that doing something will look better and maybe make them more money and if that happens to be a morally correct decision than they'll just act like that's why they did it.

axelblaze posted:I mean, do they do anything with anyone's sexuality in the game? It's been a while for me but Reinhardt has a few warmup lines with Ana that are pretty flirty imo, I always thought it was a nice touch. It's not explicit about the exact nature of their relationship but it's clear that they have a long and deep friendship at the very least, and I think it's very easy to argue that Rein is nursing a crush. It just annoys me that there's, for example, far more evidence of D.va being a Doritos gremlin than there is about Tracer having a girlfriend. I'm not out here to say that Blizzard needs to get Soldier yelling about how much he loves dick when he activates his ult, but like drat these kinds of things would get alluded to at the very least through conversations with old comerades and whatever Christmas card sprays they might get.

Progress because progress makes money is still progress, even if it's worse than progress because they earnestly feel it.

Tracer talks about visiting Emily when you play in the London map. There are also sprays of her (and of Soldier's old bf now too). I'd also prefer more and more visible nods though. Also while I generally agree and preach to not trust corps and companies, creative decisions like lore and such don't start with the board of directors, they start on the dev team.

I guess I'm using corporations in more of a the unfortunately legal sense, in which you have to take them as a whole entity. The ideas for these types of things usually start with good intentions from somewhere in the company, but no matter how morally right it is, it's going to have a hell of a time getting in if anyone thinks it might lose them money. Honestly people can still be happy when companies do stuff like this because it means that culture is shifting to the point where giant companies feel safer supporting LBGT rights than going against them or staying silent. That is still a great sign of progress.

Why would you buy a ubisoft game full price ever? They will give away the game a year later or you can grab it for a heavy discount(steep is $9).

The Division might be the most boilerplate game in existence but I liked the survival mode where you had to hunt down gear and supplies in a blizzard with pvp.

At this point I don't think I give a poo poo about having multiple programs installed to play games. I only play a few games at a time so I'll just keep Steam and whatever program the current game I'm playing is on on. I'll just keep the others turned off, it's not like it takes any space.

Yeah that's kind of the bargain that has to be made now and for basically all of human history. Sometimes people are only going to do better when they can be convinced there's something in it for them.

I have one for destiny 2, another for overwatch, and another for for Honor.

Eternal Sonata update: the local lord of the land is using persuasive taxation to push the populace towards medicine that will secretly make them evil which is a move so nakedly corrupt I'm surprised the Tories haven't tried it yet. Also I found the anime titties

Codeacious posted:Ever since EA claimed Anthem won't have lootboxes, I've been suspecting that they're going to implement a bastardized version of Warframe's monetization model. Probably just the same thing minus player trading, plus timed lockouts on grinding out frame parts. one of the questions to get into the alpha was how you felt about purchasing things that make it so you can win the game
