agreed but tie fighter broke my brain and i just find the imps more interesting than the rebels because its easy to see why someone would be the rebels. star wars squadrons has fun with it because all the imps are fundamentally broken people who are either too hosed up/broken or sunk cost to leave a sinking evil ship. the only issue i have is i wish they had the empire look competent and scary in battle(outside hoth) instead of just constantly getting their asses kicked by randos. thats my broke brain hot take for the day.

the resetera thread came back and now they are trying to get the OP banned for some vague bullshit and digging up old posts or some poo poo. its probably gonna get closed again. i am so thankful i found this place.



i didnt take this. it was taken on said thread and is now being paraded around the square as proof that OP is the Chud supporter.

the actual narrative and issues are completely lost now and it’s hard to parse any useful information. the struggle session feeds upon itself. no wonder people hate resetera.

Dapper_Swindler posted:

its the same poo poo plus them stretching poo poo about the voodoo boys when they actuall speak real haitian creole and are played by hatian actors and such, some of this feels really streatchy at times and i am someone who does agree that CDPR probably does need to do better with stuff but folks acting like the voice-gender thing is a clear showing of them being alt right chuds seems dumb to me, like it sucks but most people don't know the ins and outs of being a trans person, i sure as hell don't and i doubt a billion dollar game does either fully. do i think they should have way more LGBTQ consultants and poo poo. sure. but i dont think that folks and CDPR are rubbing their hands together and laughing at the thought of a trans person being sad/distressed over the game.

I agree, but also that's not good enough. You can't just be a bystander that's ignorant; we aren't perfect but that's why you do have to hire consultants and actively try to learn more.

That said, I think CDPR are trying. Maybe I'm being naive, we'll see when we actually play it. But I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt going in.

While also criticizing things like the pronouns issue which should be a pretty easy fix all things considered.

oh i agree. i suspect they have hired consultants and poo poo and are learning. its just the game themes were never gonna be around trans issues and said thread seems to get hung up on that because other cyberpunk media does therefor this game must too, when in fact its more, "if you want V to be trans, they can be trans". also i think the pronoun thing was sorta fixed somewhat.

I mean, it is certainly a nuanced discussion, but I have to rely on the opinions of the few people I know who are trans to gauge this one, and from what I have heard/read, most seem to think the ad is problematic, but no worse that what most companies do. Everybody seems to be reserving final judgement until they see the finished product and view everything in context.

As for the resetera crowd, I'm not sure what would please the people who are in the unforgivably offended camp. Avoiding the issue will get the company accused of ignoring the issues, and attempting to address the issues in-game will get them accused of insensitivity. If they have something they want, I wish they would articulate that rather than pillory everything else as insufficiently progressive.

I’m unreasonably excited for this game. I know it won’t be “perfect” or the second coming of chrome Christ or whatever...but all it has to be is open world Deus Ex with writing on par with Witcher 3, and I’ve seen no reason it can’t be that.

To prepare my body I’ve tricked out all my rgb poo poo with purple and red and am gonna do a “gently caress everyone/everything” run of Deus Ex Invisible War. I still love I War.

alot of them just want the game banned from the forums at this point so it seems. whats funny is the mods could end it. ban a bunch of ringleaders and the loud assholes on either side and have than put a content explainer and poo poo in in the ot and have a seperate thread. done.

It's been long obvious some people there were never going to be happy as long as discussion of the game was allowed and a thread made for it when launched. They were always going to blast it and those who posted in the thread, unless it was banned they were going to bring out the torches. Its a bit of a miracle it took this long.

It is a flawed game, but really not that bad. The story is weak, but it's 100% DX poking around in peoples' apartments and so on. It's definitely worth playing.

yeah. the mods are kinda hosed because they can't really ban discusiioons of that topic without alienated people but they are basically stuck having to condone folks self righteous shitposting about it on every other thread and than stewing about it on another thread and than shitposting more and radicalizing more. its sad because i don't really fully disagree with where they are coming from but its radicalized to a stupid point.

I vaguely recall IW having some cool elements but I got impatient with the tiny levels and all the loading. I could see how faster hardware (so presumably instant loading) could smooth over some old wrinkles.
