honestly the way these devs talk about this poo poo kinda makes me sick lolquote:“I worry that True Colors and Before the Storm are important to the queer community, and I just worry people will think they can’t play these anymore,” life is strange before the storm is not important to the queer community

but yeah idk, obvs i feel bad for the devs if they were getting creeped on but the weird like... self-important a lot of western single a devs have because they made a bad game with a gay in it is kind of infuriating. they really think theyre like, the first people to ever do it when theres been equivalent games for 20+ years.

quote:“It took a three hour meeting in the writers room and one of the writers sharing an extremely personal story to get Zak to agree to get the content out,” said Littleton. “It wasn’t about us not wanting to have difficult topics in there, but Life Is Strange shines because that type of content is chosen extremely deliberately and it’s given runway, it’s given space to breathe. okay i forgive square enix london because i would also ask these people to stop being so gay

a cataclysm progression server isnt 'wow, look at this golden era of the game thats completely different from modern wow,' its basically just a way to allow people to experience that content at level the way it was designed to be experienced. like all those bosses and raids and such are already made, some people wanna see what they were like or redo them, but there's no easy way to do that in a way that is similar to how it actually was with wow's systems, unlike ff14.

credburn posted:I always thought the panda expansion was the one that made everyone leave WoW?  the decline pretty clearly starts with the backhalf of cata and kinda goes unabated. beyond legion actually bringing some people back and a spike for later expac releases. it kicks in fully with mop but it feels not quite right to blame it since its largely just the negative momentum from cata. mop is also generally looked back on as a generally decent expansion, partly because its sandwiched between two terrible ones

most expansions have at least one active private server. wrath, tbc, and vanilla had the most but theres cata, mists, etc ones with decent populations. those all manage to exist and have decent playerbases, official ones can too. however theres barely any work done on emulating warlords. only one server exists and it barely works and is super buggy. genuinely going tobe funny when they get to that one

tips are fine in certain situations where the person is actually being paid a decent wage and you want to give them extra for going above and beyond. however it should not be an expected thing or anything anyone relies on. and it mostly only works in self-employed type situations where you know the person who did the work for you is actually going to get to enjoy that tip.

homeless snail posted:it's an adventure game that has a puzzle where a password is someone's deadname, it's a good puzzle and also works narratively to establish that the guy who's password it is is kind of an rear end in a top hat. the waypoint review of the game comes out, calls the game transphobic, and their tweet about it was just "don't. deadname. ever" and a picture of the games logo. which incites a lot of hate from the supposedly progressive readers of waypoint. the writer it turns out, is trans and that specific puzzle is drawn from their real life experience. waypoint follows up with an article that's a little bit conciliatory but their conclusion is "it's still hateful and they shouldn't have done it", and austin specifically continued to use it as an example for awhile yea lol. its cool to be subtweeted as a bigot because i think causing trans people getting harassed because some cis person got bad tummy feels is bad.

this is like, quite literally the kind of thing trans creatives have nightmares about, and walker gleefully enabled it and then tried to defend it when called out on it. to this day red strings club's wikipedia page is 90% a section labelled 'controversy' about how transphobic it is. this is one of the first google results if you search for it. this is what he and his site did to a trans person's work. he is not a good person.

its honestly an extremely similar situation to the attack helicopter story. a lot of the same 'concerns,' a lot of the same attacks, a lot of cis Queer people going out of their way to drop volleys on trans women for daring to write something that makes them uncomfortable. if it had blown up more it could have ended a similar way. trans people's participation in modern 'queer,' 'progressive' culture is extremely contingent on them never once daring to write, say, or do anything interesting, under penalty of exile.
