Sorry, not this time Anita, this would be the one I ask for a free pass. Blame it on my upbringing in a traditional lower-income Mexican family, but I need some babes showing up at the end of some games. Give them detailed personalities and backgrounds, but they still need to show up in a sexy costume (bikini at least).

You need FOB's to expand the number of Combat Units you can send in single-player mode. These Combat Units are used to get resources and GMP to expand Mother Base.

nah, it's a mobile turn based system, you'll need to level up your characters and combine two fully leveled 2 star darth vaders to level up your vader to 3 stars eventually through random character packs.

I'm assuming cheatengine will solve all these issues. You might have to avoid being online on Steam, though.

I'm a cranky old man for hating 95% of all microtransactions/DLC for inducing grind or needless expense... which the gameplay becomes wrapped around to turn a higher profit. To the player's detriment.

To be fair, it's mostly because I'm dumb enough to have spent money on some of the poo poo in the past, and can't afford to now.

yeah, its the kind of f2p and p2w tactics that get ripped apart for other games when they are included, even when they are entirely optional. it gets a pass because obviously mgs is a franchise with a lot of good will going for it, but it is certainly still bull poo poo

I'm betting Kojima had nothing to do with it.

The same thing is going to happen with MGS V as happened with every other recent game to do this, people will moan about it for a bit then realise it doesn't impact the game at all and forget all about it.

Women will generally spend hours in front of a mirror improving their looks so that they can attract the most successful men possible. They're purposely choosing to use their bodies to reward successful behavior in men.

They do this for one reason. They believe it's easier than actually becoming successful themselves. That's why you see lots of men going into difficult high paying majors and women taking easier lower paying ones. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. That's just the general decisions of each gender. Men know that if they want to become wealthy they need to earn it, while it's easier for women to simply marry into wealth. Again nothing wrong. If a women chooses to forgo fun in her youth to achieve a daunting degree like engineering that's great. And if a women chooses to party and have fun in college then marry an engineer that's fine too.

So I'm sorry to burst your victimhood bubble but there is no underlying male domination in society. Men are far more likely to be killed on the job. Far more likely to be attacked in public. Far more likely to have to earn their own wealth. Far more likely to kill themselves. Far more likely to be drafted into the next big war to be used as cannon fodder. Far more likely to lose custody of their children in similar circumstances to other women. Far more likely to serve harsher sentences for the same crime. Far more likely to work at any occupation in the show Dirty Jobs. Far more likely to be hit as children. Far more likely to work longer hours than even childless mothers. In short shut the actual gently caress up and stop calling me a bad person for having a pair of balls.

I'm the quick and the deadly
I think the whole of the kind of people that spend time posting on the Internet is an echo chamber. I find it better if I want to get out of 'an echo chamber' is to go talk to some gamers in real life and get away from Reddit and Twitter. My peers around my age with families, jobs, etc. A lot of SJW types seem to be scary derelicts, addicts and failures judging by history I've seen on some of them.

Since I just spent some time equating peers and echo chambers and cults it occurs to me that I could find a homeless person on the street (as opposed to taking a trip to Africa or finding some bush tribesman in Australia or something) and really get out of my echo chamber that way by telling them about GG too, but they have other priorities so I usually just talk to them about their life and give them money.

In the end, I am reasonably certain of my own ability to assess facts and don't desire that much validation from other people.

That's not unique to "SJW types". A lot of people who spend a lot of time on the Internet *are* scary derelicts, addicts, and weirdos, whether they're SJW types or neo-fascist /pol types. "Failures" is also a pretty subjective judgment. Since we were talking about Notch itt, you might consider him an incredible, unprecedented success - the most successful game designer of all time, financially speaking - or a huge failure because he's a goony weirdo who gets the majority of his human comfort from pornography and acts like he may as well just lay in bed for the rest of his life despite having something like 1.5 billion USD, enough money to literally do or try or make anything he wants.

Like, this is a good thing in a way, and is part of being an educated adult, but it can also be very dangerous. Everybody's biased, and you can't change that, so the best you can do is try to remain aware of what your biases are and how they inform your decisions and the way you treat people. The best way to do that is to talk to others, and also to know when to shut up and listen.
