(I got annoyed about Capcom using lens flare to hide nudity in the PS4 version of DMCV, but mostly because it looked terrible and the Xbox version didn't have it)

The true problem is there weren't ENOUGH lens flares added to the game. Then we would be at the highest levels of Photoshop supremacy.

Eh, I had a polite DM exchange with Paige (started by her, mind you) about the subject after calling her out for the acquaintances and ended up blocked by both her and Pat months after the fact (because some weird goon convinced her we were trying to, I'unno, cancel her or whatever), so I'm kinda done with thinking about her.

glad to hear it

It's extremely telling that all the worst parts of the SBFP fandom went to Pat when the break up happened

Not that he's necessarily as bad as them, but because he doesn't care about how many rotten pieces of poo poo infest his fanbase as long as they give him money on his half-assed streams

Hopefully this is a wake up call but probably not

That's right, kids. Banning someone from your product and platform for their political views is the same as not showing graphic images of underage characters.

my spicy hot take is that the changes to the english versions are good, because the original japanese had some real uncomfortable undertones of sexual violence in the bikini photography chapter that got undone or at the very least lessened a lot by turning it into a street fashion photography chapter instead

I still find it interesting how different body types are thought as in japan vs the west, like I remember hearing that the handler from monster hunter world is considered fat bordering on obese by the jp fanbase.

To get in late to the topic, I almost totally get his knee jerk reaction to the email prompt, doubly so when the person said they don't buy/play stuff that gets censored. I kinda can see some ire coming from the fact I feel like they've complained about dumbass localization stuff on plenty of occasions, but Pat is/was definitely right to point out that kind of stuff isn't censorship, and making it out to be has really muddied the issue for when you see real censorship.

I think the only real criticism that could be levied at Pat was the segment kinda made for bad podcasting because it was just a vicious cycle of
Pat: gently caress the "but my anime tiddies people"
Woolie: Yeah but surely there's some nuance and that's just a vocal group
Pat: but gently caress 'em

I also feel like there's surely some cases of localization doing gross stuff rather then taking out the gross stuff, but again, those don't seem to be the examples you typically hear about.

It's funny because other topics lately had me getting really tired of Pat's thing.

I was put off by that too but watching the stream it doesn't look like it's much of an MMO. I think you might be able to go through the game single player entirely.

It's amazing to watch, especially after their last match, with Woolie and Reggie finding themselves having to come down from their sensory overload.

I think I'm done with the TBFP Reddit subchannel. Pat mentioned the old Plague joke "No way friend," except replace friend with a derogatory term. The fact that they don't even say it anymore says they know it was bad. Pat even said if you have any comments to message Plague. So I did a little research and best I could find he's been radio silent on it.

So I asked in the subreddit if they knew if he had commented on it. I got three responses including one calling me the derogatory term and another saying I was just trying to stir things up and then the thread was deleted. I keep learning the lesson that somethingawful is a lot better than a lot of places on the internet.

It's not necessarily that SA is better than most places, it's that the SBFP fandom at large has always been low to mid key terrible gamer bros and the boys by virtue of their radio silence on politics and other hot-button issues while the channel was alive and thriving have never really tried to curtail that in any meaningful way.

It's weird cause I generally have had a good experience at the SBF subreddit and even discovered a few nice transgender subreddits after I saw a couple transgender SBF folks posting openly about it and not getting hassled in any way.

I haven't been looking there regularly lately though, maybe it's gotten worse.
