Video games should be banned, they are a destructive force and lead to violence. Every mass shooter from the past decade identified as a gamer and that isn’t a coincidence.

It's true Nazis and white supremacists have realized that gamers and Star Wars fans are a weirdly fertile recruitment ground for alienated, isolated, socially malleable young men.

The Vegas shooter was a hardcore gambler but I don’t think that’s really in the same general sphere as video games.

I don’t care for Jeff Goldblum. I don’t find his brand of smarmy intellectual endearing and I don’t think he’s a good actor. I didn’t like him in Jurassic Park and while we’re on the subject I thought Jurassic Park sucked. The children were irritating and the film itself was boring.

There's a lot of classic art that isn't actually good and is almost unapproachable from today's viewpoint and we shouldn't hold them up as good, merely important. Ulysses is a bad fukken book. Birth of a Nation is a horrible movie. It's ok to say it was bad but first.

I want to understand people’s Witcher hype but I can’t play an rpg with a set character starting at game 2 or 3, and Witcher 1 sucks absolute rear end. I have been trying for a decade but I will never finish it or play the others.

I am an old old man and My sentiments about Witcher are that gently caress Russia

And Poland and eastern bloc Warsaw pact poo poo bags

Asia status: on fire or should be on fire bcuz too cold, one moment

US President status: Owned as gently caress

Georgia: burn it like Sherms

Everything: burn. It.

Birth of a Nation was considered a lovely movie when it came out too. It was blatant propaganda that a ton of people really didn't like. It was massively controversial but it was also a technical marvel at the time and one of the most expensive movies made up to that point. That's ultimately why it went down in history; at the time movies were little more than a curiosity and weren't long. Birth of a Nation was like two hours long and really unlike anything anybody had seen.

Haven't watched the Witcher series but I did enjoy the Witcher 3 however the protagonist should be and in fact is named Gerald the Witchyman.

E. Further videogame opinion: Disco Elysium on paper should be my ideal computer RPG, like it's the sort of game I've been pining for for years. However everything anyone actually says about it makes me want to play it less. I'm not sure if this is just the usual thing of people being too obnoxiously enthusiastic about a thing or what, but there we are.

Similarly, AR-14 stands for Attack Rifle Shootygun #14. Why it's not ARSG-14 I don't know, but I don't make the rules.

This is actually incorrect. The "AR" stands for Aeromark Rifle and "14" stands for the number of bullets (or "slugs" as they're called in the industry) it's clip can hold. They were originally made as an alternative to the much more reliable M-16A1 that first saw service in WW2 and was bored for the 7.62x39mm NATO slug.

Naah, Aeromark Rifle Shootygun just sounds silly. That can't possibly be true.

It's short for Assault-Rifle Rifle.

It's actually neat to track the ARs back from the perfect murder design of the 15 all the way back to the 1 which didn't actually fire any bullets and only spat out a small cloud of dust with while making the sad trombone noise.

All I had to see is "dialogue-heavy" and "skillchecks instead of combat" to know this "game" isn't for me. Just read a book and roll some dice if that's what you want imho.

It's been ramping up a lot lately, I'm just hoping it all explodes sooner than later since it got one of my favorite threads closed because people just can't stop touching the stove.
