Archer666 posted:Thought it was more about this strange obsession to have Lara Croft taken super seriously as a character, which means she has to be serious and broody and no fun allowed all the time. Also I had forgotten this, but apparently one of the design goals for reboot Lara was 'the player should want to take care of her' which... that's a weird goal for your action hero and is also kind of insulting. Nobody feels a great need to take Nathan Drake in their arms and make him feel safe.

If I recall: it was a meeting with Boogie during a con that was semi private, and Boogie saw the post and put it on his twitter. The real breaking point involved someone veing nitpicky about Sócrates. TBF I'm surprised it wasn't when I poked at her old article on her serious site about watching the Enders Game movie in order to save YA from dying at the office or some poo poo.

Skippy McPants posted:I think the point is less that we need to change anything about our behavior and more that it's useful to remember and remind folks that this is not a private nor entirely safe space. It can sometimes feel that way because the atmosphere of the thread is relatively chill—so long as nobody says Zack Snyder three times while looking in a mirror—but we are regularly monitored by bad actors. Posting something personal on a public space like this was a pretty dumb move of hers, yeah.

Nobody feels a great need to take Nathan Drake in their arms and make him feel safe. Yeah, it was pretty weird and gave the game a slightly fetishistic tone. Though to be fair they wanted to make Lara less action hero, more realistic down-to-earth kind of character, but I feel they overcorrected a little in TR reboot. No clue if they got better at it in the sequels.

Yeah, whatever, was just an example—point being that this forum is not as secure or off the beaten path as it sometimes feels. Like, it is a placid lake of pure calm compared to modern social media, but it's still all hanging out here in the open for anyone willing to slap down a tenner, and it's important to keep that in mind. Post responsibly!

No clue if they got better at it in the sequels. Not really. They ditched the supporting character people liked/hoped Lara would hook up with in Sam and doubled down on Lara being driven to Prove Her Father Right (so it's not about her) and also she has PTSD maybe? It's not even clear if she enjoys the raiding of tombs.

Jorah was the only real recurring character they had besides Lara, but he seemed to be a different character each game.

It’s kind of curious in retrospect that he never went after any of the regulars or semi-regulars who made videos. But I don’t want to think about him any more and so I won’t.

leaving out the best parts -breadnsucc was his alt, his original account and the username that made it into the news stories was "Doorknob Slobber" -he reposted the police tweet about his own shooting in the thread and was like "seems like those dudes hosed around and found out, hope the shooter (who is very cool and handsome) is doing alright"

Does anyone know if Voidburger is going to do any more Psychonauts 2 streams? Recently watched the two VODs she has up on her youtube channel and really liked them, then saw they were posted a month ago and nothing since. Skimmed her twitter but didn’t see anything about it.

She's doing work on giant bomb now, semi frequently too, so that might be slowing down her personal output. Related, she's right about the (original) Mario movie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3t43BeU2ooM&hd=1

Come the gently caress on, if you're gonna ruin your life at least kill one of the people you've been driven to madness over. Sure seems like he was exactly the same as the weekend nazis, reveling in performative violence until that indulgence simply boils over.

Oxxidation posted:he got shot by one of the proud boys during a protest and the cops predictably let the shooter off scot-free, and it shook something loose inside his head he got grazed by a bullet and proceeded to spend the next like six months posting like the loving Punisher about how someone needs to clean up this filth and how excited he was to use his cool gun on basically anyone who pissed him off. Him happening to graze a probably FBI planted fash leader's foot is more a luck thing than any testament to restraint or ability to pick targets or anything, he was 100% on some Death Wish poo poo and that's probably why his ex didn't want him around their kids

Surely posts from the forums have been read at criminal trials before. This can’t be the first attempted murder where some fancy man is going to ask for clarification on how to pronounce cumshitter.
