The Thousand Year Door, the game that is getting a remake, has a character who is explicitly Trans in the Japanese (and several other language) versions but that was flattened out in the English release. The new version basically has everyone wondering if they're either going to maintain that erasure or make it explicit again, either one is likely going to piss people off.

My friend, Paper Mario poo poo has already started.



i was just guessing but lol

whats worse is that online leftist types cannot resist taking the bait and putting out their own 4 hour response videos with like a thumbnail of Birdo and the title 'Mario Has Always Been Woke: A History'

Turning the light on the darkest places, you and I know we got to face this now. We got to face this now.

Leftists never use woke anymore since the right use it to mean the n word.

I thought every character in paper Mario was flat and that’s the whole gimmick?

TLAD is good but mostly only because it focuses on bikes which are the only GTAIV vehicles that aren’t loving awful to drive.

insane take, I actually like how 'realistically' the cars handle in IV and how easily they fishtail but you go flying off the bike so easily that driving over 30 MPH is basically suicide

no the right uses DEI to mean the N word, woke is more a catch all for everything they dislike (race AND gender)

Plenty of leftists use the term "woke" jokingly or semi-pejoratively, just not the radlib type.

It's also not used by the madlib type, who use a different term each time.

Terrible to hear about what's happening in SHIFT UP Corporation. My thoughts and prayers go out to the women -presumably at gunpoint- working on those games. I hope that Shin Jae-eun will also someday escape the prison of flesh she's been put in and find a way to stop looking like Eve.

I fuckin love DD2 so much. I had to kill time waiting for a quest so I set out for another quest that I had been putting off because it was a trek to get there. About five minutes into the hike a griffin shows up, I climb on to bash its face in, then it decides to become Sequence Break Airlines and flies me in the complete opposite direction over to volcano island, just past a big locked stone door that was gating me off from the area. I decide to find a way back without using a ferrycrystal. That ended up being a three hour detour, involving meeting a quest giver whose quest I had inadvertently already half completed -- the game just let me have that progress, it wasn't bothered that I did things out of order. I found a way back to Battahl through a particularly large and maze-like cave, clearly intended as an optional and challenging sequence skip path. It was funny emerging to an NPC and signs warning me not to enter.

The amount of flexibility on display here is just awesome to see in an action RPG. Twice now I've gotten to new areas ahead of the main plot, and it didn't feel like I was peeking behind the curtain. The world was still turning in those places.

i played more cult of the lamb last night. really enjoying it still. i feel like its the perfect balance between the cozy farming sim games that have more depth like stardew valley and animal crossing and action roguelike games like binding of isaac and hades.

it's a lot more fun than reading this thread!

Yeah I've been enjoying Bloodborne. I just have the final bosses to go. The Dream is aflame! But I'm doing the Old Hunters stuff because I don't want to do it on NG+

So far my least favorite boss has been... Hmm. The Bloodletting Beast I fought in a Chalice dungeon. Stop stomping me!!!

I am officially finding common ground with ShoogaSlim. Cult of the Lamb is good!

Still stuck on the last DLC that goes hard into the cult management side, but it's still fun.

You can also save scum the endings and get them all in one go. It's nice! Just turn off auto-upload for the game if you have it on.

Hey, people who have played more Octopath II than me: do the other final bosses of the individual stories all do the thing where they block certain types of actions? Because woof, that got hairy, there was a bit where I had both "Attack" and "Items" blocked with a bunch of my characters totally out of SP

the second thing that happens in Stellar Blade after the extremely horny introduction is that dozens of women in the same skintight outfits as the protagonist get graphically butchered. It’s very off-putting imho

But uh yeah dragons dogma has a brothel I guess.

Yeah they're presented as cyborgs or something but when they get eviscerated or torn limb from limb they're full of blood and high impact gore. It was gross but I don't like that stuff at the best of times.

Any word on if it's a MGR situation where they were supposed to have indigo blood or oil or something but that isn't in the international release?
