Srice posted:https://youtu.be/xb-DtICmPTY a bunch of pages back, but I finally finished watching (and then rewatching once more) and it just hits so good. at 4:26:40 he says (which is probably part of the thesis statement of this whole video, so I'll put it in spoiler. disregard this whole post if you have yet to watch this video and plan to do it) "when you make a game that feels like a person, you make a player that feels bad for treating that person like an object" I've been playing a lot of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and one of the mechanics is finding 'Lost Items' that belong to students and faculty members around the school. Upon returning these items the character will say something along the lines of "I've been looking everywhere for this!", and will fully fill their motivation bar. Now, there are limited ways to raise motivation, and this one is pretty good. So you can hold off on giving these 'lost items' back, and return them to their owners when their motivation is low. So the ludonarrative is: you're stealing items from your students and friends, and giving them back at your convenience in order to manipulate them to liking you and raising their stats. Some of the items I couldn't find the owner. It makes me think that, had I not taken that item, that person would've retraced their steps and find it again. Now they'll never get it back. Once you gamify relationships you're either an rear end in a top hat at best, or a complete sociopath at worst.

From that vid, I'd say she's stupid. But as an audience, how can one watch that whole video and decide that more harassment is the answer? I'm pretty sure you can reach those tweets just from googling the quotes themselves, but I will admit that leaving usernames and avatars just makes the job easier.

Yardbomb posted:...and when you get damaged your clothes start disintegrating, so it wasn't bad enough with the first part, had to make her this gross uwu noooo monsters don't explode my clothes off spankbait target as well. Not specific to PE3, but you'd think as a gameplay mechanic it would be the other way around. The better you are at the game, the less clothes your character would have, and the more you get hit, the more clothes your character wears.

Pachylad posted:Are you talking about this Christian bunny update of the Black Mirror episode "Nosedive"? quote:What's not to like? Everyone just goes with the flow of the system and enjoy an endless flow of cheap trinkets and gadgets to consume, an ever-increasing stream of free entertainment to fill every waking moment; movies and videogames and pornography and events. You can spend your Universal Basic Income on restaurants of all sorts and travel and thrilling "experiences" for pictures on social media. If somehow you still feel unfulfilled just consume a pile of self-help books that will teach you how to reach enlightenment by loving yourself more, manifesting your higher consciousness and finding the divine of your own self. If that doesn't help just smoke some weed, or seek something stronger from your doctor. You'll be content one way or another. Nobody will be around anymore to tell you about how you sin against God, to repent and humbly turn to Christ for forgiveness and salvation from the judgment that comes at the end of everyone's lives. That would be offensive, hurtful and harmful, and thus not allowed! You can say that Jesus loves you and wants you to live your best life, that's it! But... we're not there yet. The all-silencing Social Credit System is not yet here, and there's still time to sound the message of salvation. How can you make a comic about a totalitarian-socialist-state where the nonbelievers of the state get punished, and then later write this??

Dapper_Swindler posted:I think they are being sarcastic? I don't understand which part of that paragraph you think is sarcastic? Did you read the comic and their ending thoughts? of course the part about the "utopia" is sarcastic. I was trying to point out how trying to frame "living in a totalitarian-socialist state where all your needs are met so long as you don't talk poo poo" is bad and "living the Christian way" is good without mentioning how totalitarian Christians acted throughout history. Maybe, as a Jew, the way some Christians talk about Christianity just rubs me the wrong way. "Nobody will be around anymore to tell you about how you sin against God, to repent and humbly turn to Christ for forgiveness and salvation from the judgment that comes at the end of everyone's lives" Also, implying that UBI will be used for capricious things that are only done for social media is quite a take.

I don't think the "she should've just said nothing" is entirely valid because she probably didn't expect it to cascade as far as it did. She probably thought that replying to her critique will be just another humdrum.

My first exposure to Serious Sam was when I , as a kid, saw another kid play it at some random family gathering. For the longest time I thought it was some expansion for Unreal Tournament (because all FPS's were the same, see). Giant lava monsters and Egyptian landscapes haunted my dreams for a good while after that

TRO is alright if you love drama-related content, and he goes well in-depth about it. He shows the history of some person, the criticism on said person, and his own opinion about it. I think there isn't much to talk about him specifically, though, because as someone who reviews drama he stays well away from it.
