Yeah if you see anyone complaining about historical inaccuracy in their video games you can be 99% certain they're complaining about the existence of women and minorities. And the other 1% are pedantic as hell so you don't wanna talk to them either

I dunno there's also the much more agreeable "they cut out x interesting thing that would have ruled" group.

They're rare but pop up occasionally like for that French Revolution AC.

Not just games, any media. Like the people whining about black people in the background in Frozen and the live action Beauty and the beast.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you play as a woman in, like, the second Medal of Honour game way back in 1320 or whenever it was released?

Medal of Honor: Underground, where you play as a member of the French Resistance who gets recruited into the OSS. IIRC you don't have the option of playing as a man at all, and the main character is on the cover.

Could you imagine the outrage today?

I’m sorry for the detail but this is driving me insane, what TV show is this from?

It’s like a fake 60’s comedy that I can just remember nothing about.

Hi! I'm awkward.
Hey come on now, there's a ton of dumb stuff to complain about in historical movies that isn't related to race or gender. However you're totally correct in saying that nobody cares. Like my personal favorite gripe about the movie 300.

Know what, make it more specific. If someone's complaining that something is in a game that shouldn't be because of historical accuracy, they're always poo poo and usually wrong. If someone complains that something isn't there that could have been, they probably know something cool and you should listen

A lot of seemingly less lovely gaming channels defended the gently caress out of this excuse, it was unsurprising but still gross seeing people fall on this particular sword and refuse to acknowledge the obvious alt right influence.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.
I was thinking it meant "everything goes south"

I watched it, but it didn't live up to the expectations that I had formed from sensible-chuckle.gif. I thought it was good, but not something I'd rewatch or highly recommend to someone else. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention to it? Maybe I need to give it another chance and rewatch it?

Out of curiosity, for the those of you who say it's great, where are you from? I'm kind of wondering if I missed some humor because I'm not Australian enough?
