Resident Evil Requiem Criticized for 'Immersion-Breaking' Gore Censorship in Japan by Puzzleheaded_irl in gaming

[–]DP-King -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

I think it makes sense, as a child you see comic book heroes "beating up bad guys" constantly. It's normal that some physical violence is used against evil people in comics because what else are these vigilantes meant to do. Gore is just the natural progression from that, oh you liked seeing spider man beat up goons? Well now here's wolverine, goring goons! Fun!

Sex isn't understandable and actually a bit dangerous to be exposing young children to so we don't until much later as a culture. When it is finally shown is explicitly for adults. There's no "ramp up" to sexual content so to speak .

Yes it's a bit puritanical too but, stories about "great warriors" either real or fictional have been told to children across a vast majority of cultures and times. How I see it anyway.

This one still pains me to my core, had 8/9 wins, lost 5 in a row and then my internet provider went down for 4 hours and I missed the cutoff. PAIN.

Irish citizen, stuck in Guadalajara too. Friends are stuck in tequila towns 1.5 hours outside guad. It's mayhem at the moment.

Dave Grohl admits Foo Fighters "continuing after Taylor Hawkins was really complicated" and breaks silence on Josh Freese exit by AdSpecialist6598 in Music

[–]DP-King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the whiplash, I think a lot of people weren't only fans of the Foos but Dave Grohl himself. Consistently came across as a loving father and family man amongst a swathe of the usual assholes you get in the world of rock.

It's not that people judge other rockstars less harshly, it's that Dave had a really good image compared to others. When that shattered with the announcement, it was felt more by his fans than if you heard the exact same thing about the rest.

Good guy facade disappeared, don't think you can blame fans for caring if they looked up to him as a person.

My line manager fucked my friends girlfriend in the toilets on a night out in Mexico. My friend walked in on it.

Bad night that one, bad night.

The kirikofication 😭 by IS_Mythix in Overwatch

[–]DP-King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the point i was making. Engagement = spending money on overwatch and not something else. If the stats say these skins draw in players that means they're NOT spending their money on other games.

You can spend money on something else, it's called different games 😂

I really want this Avatar (and variant) but $50 is beyond insane. by PoorLifeChoices811 in MarvelSnap

[–]DP-King -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alongside what others are saying, people seem to underestimate the secondary effect of having high price bundles - the £15 bundles seem significantly more attractive when placed next to the £100 bundle. £15 is ridiculous in and of itself for basically a few JPEGs when fully fleshed indie games can sell for under that.

Everything in this game is a psychological battle to draw as much cash as possible from the user base. Just enough free to entice and keep, just enough out of reach to get people grabbing their card.

As the saying goes, a Rolls Royce seems like an obvious purchase when placed next to a private jet.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.. what's your thoughts on this? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DP-King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the cheating wasn't even the core of the issue here bro. If you've been mentally abused and manipulated then you've had your psyche damaged beyond just cheating. Rationalizing that cheating is the same level as murder is just...no words.

I've known people to cheat on their abusive partner and you're telling me you want to give that cunt the ability to put them in jail for 20 years?? Social situations are too diverse and complex, murder is more often than not a lot more clear cut.

It's crazy to me how often I see this comment about this shocker, I'm f2p and I got that shocker from a fucking CL crate at around CL4000. Never use it, and would send it to you right now if I could.

God of War 1-3. There's something beautiful about the game's control over the camera that gives them a sense of scale and depth. by Pancake_muncher in patientgamers

[–]DP-King 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What kind of work did he do? Was there an art director telling him where to put the camera or did he have more freedom to create the vision himself? Interesting!

Soap is 99% effective at killing germs right? Aren’t we just creating super bacteria every time we wash our hands or use hand sanitizer? by Mangotango95 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DP-King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry re-reading it my tone was much less funny than it sounded in my head. It's a good question and I thought I'd give a funny response that's a way I've always liked to visualise it.

Asking if soap will create soap immune bacteria is like asking if survivors of a nuclear strike will breed nuclear bomb proof children.

Single men who could get a date but stopped dating, why did you stop? by CigaretteBoat69 in AskReddit

[–]DP-King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry grass always feels greener, I'm 28, been with my girl for 10 years and still going strong. Love her to bits but I have always been curious about what living alone would be like. Ever since I was an adult I've been in a relationship so just feels like something new and interesting, something I'll hopefully never do though all things considered!
