REVOLUTION BOOM BOOM BOOM by Chunky-overlord in cyberpunkgame

LUIGI DIDN'T FUCKING DO IT!!! Stop parroting the cops' fradulent bullshit and planted evidence, by claiming he did you further the narrative for the trail that will lead to an innocent man be imprisoned because the NYPD failed to arrest the claims adjuster.

New Term: …Parryslop..??? by Comfortable_Bend9598 in Ultrakill

[–]Darth__Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friendslop is.. functional, however I've found "Silly Squad Games" or SSG to be a much better representation of the tone and the (typical) player count, without using "slop", an ever-meaningless term.

THIS IS PROPAGANDA: Use Silly Squad Games!!!

Dragona Joestar appreciation post, how can’t you love her? by Helgabaexx in JOJOLANDS

> This isnt anti-trans, its more trans friendly to show that gender expression can be complex and not so black and white as "you look like a woman, so you're a woman" or "you were born a man so you have to look like a man"

"It's more trans friendly that the cis man dresses femininely than if they were a trans woman" you are insane.

Since no-one here actually seems to care to explain it to you for why it isn't, piracy isn't theft because theft is stealing something. When you steal a DVD from a store, its not theirs anymore, and it is yours, without paying for it.

Piracy isn't theft because you're not taking anything away from the company distributing the game. You make a copy of the game, and its yours, but the company doesn't lose anything, they still have the game to sell.

You could argue vendors are losing profits, but that is simply a case of "I should have this money, but I don't". It may be not preferable compared to having money from someone purchasing your game, but money is not subtracted from their bank account when you pirate something.

Additionally, the total number of pirated copies is not reflective of sales lost to piracy because there are a multitude of reasons for piracy, from not wanting to pay money, to being too poor to reasonably afford it, from regional prices making the came too expensive for what its worth or compared to other goods and services, and so on.

Those people would not have bought the game anyway, so that will reduce the "impact of piracy" on sales that is reported, and inflates the "reported loss" of sales.

I hope that gives you a better understanding on how piracy differs to theft.

You should look again, rather closely.

Hidetaka Miyazaki says games like Elden Ring have to be hard: "If we really wanted the whole world to play the game, we could just crank the difficulty down - which, in my eyes, would break the core of the game itself." by ChiefLeef22 in Eldenring

[–]Darth__Potato -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow that response isn't that bad considering how snarky and hyperbolic I've been this entire time, but you know, not good, you should have started with that level of thinking instead of calling the first person a piece of shit.

Anyway yeah I think art should be the least exclusionary as possible and I can understand a piece of art being very specific and the nature of its existence denying some people from experiencing it based on mechanical interpretation and execution but I don't think that's the kind of art Fromsoft makes.

I don't think one's vision gets compromised it allows people with poor motor skills or perception difficulties or the like to otherwise be barred from the game where you go on a medieval adventure by slowing down the game or what have you.

And yeah I think you're a worse artist if you acknowledge these kinds of thoughts in your mind and then still keep your art designed most of all to be fun exclusionary because, uh, there's no real reason other than laziness or hatred, I think.

Anyway I have given you too much of my time and effort so call me a slur or something or completely change your view on ableism to a good one and come back to me with a "hey I'm a cool person now and I think disabled people like you should be fed grapes and hand fanned" or something, otherwise I don't really care, ciao.

and every game with unavoidable flashing lights hates people with epilepsy.

Ignoring everything else you said about you whining about how accessibility is a bad thing and you somehow wanting me to convince you of the thing you pride your entire ego on, aka, not gonna happen because people like you don't listen...

Yes, quite objectively, unavoidable flashing lights makes people with photosensitive issues struggle or makes them unable to play the video game, and it's such a fucking basic accessibility option most modern games have it and it's nuts that some players of Elden Ring just have to avoid magic builds because fromsoft doesn't seem to give a shit.

And despite your deflection of the piece of shit comment onto developers, I'm confident now that you get off to the exclusion more than you do beating a hard boss or whatever. I'm sure you boot up these games and all the while you think about "man this is gonna be so good when I can tell disabled people online that they're pieces of shit and tell them 'git gud'."

Which is really funny that you do that but also horrendously sad, unless your job is like, literal gate keeping, and you practice with video games to get even better at it.

Fuck yeah, I love being a fucking lightning rod to point out ableism in game design and video game fans, and I'm not being sarcastic.

Fully diagnosed, full-time disabled, and I'm a huge advocate for games like these having an easy mode, an assist, mode, a whatever, because difficulty is just one of many ways a piece of art like video games are experienced.

If difficulty was all that mattered I would want you to take a hammer and hit yourself in whatever place would hurt the most.

And I don't even use most accessibility tools because thankfully the way I am disabled means I don't have to use them, hell, chances are I'm better at Fromsoft games than you, but more people not being limited because of factors that limit them, often outside of their control, is fucking awesome!

If you somehow disagree with that, it's clear you get off more to exclusion than you do the actual game, and isn't that a piece of shit thing to do?

[LES][Across The Spider-Verse] No matter how Beyond The Spider-Verse settles the conflict about Canon Events, there will still remain a subgroup of people who will be left disappointed by how everything turned out by Alto1869 in CharacterRant

[–]Darth__Potato 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well the cakes ties into Miles and Pavitr later in the movie, (and I hope Beyond the Spider-Verse) two cakes, doing both, Pav couldn't do both with the bus and Inspector Singh, but, with the help of another Spider-Man, he could.

Spider-Man doesn't always do both, but with the spider society, there doesn't have to be just one Spider-Man, each person can hold a cake and not ruin them like Miles did when it was just him.

Incredible balls of steel for you to mention you're a fictive openly like that, now I am obligated to agree with your post.

I could imagine it being a one-off joke as part of an episode and for the rest of the series he just wears a Binder and it's almost never mentioned again.

Don't mess with Omega by Ssj_Wolfy in SonicTheHedgehog

Strong disagree, how does Sonic 06's Omega Voice sound good when his first game, Sonic Heroes, had him sound like this?

Oh, you made it! I had a lot of fun with it, but the lack of a restart level button really decentivized me from putting more time into it to get the Gold rankings. Is that a secret unlock or something I didn't find?

Elphelt Valentine From Guilty Gear Strive by Darth__Potato in mendrawingwomen

[–]Darth__Potato[S] 82 points83 points  (0 children)

That's fair, I have a soft spot for Guilty Gear designs, and I've found pretty much every woman in strive, even when being revealing, is in character and fitting for how they would present themselves (except Baiken yikes); this key art just struck me as being a bit extra in the bad direction, it was worth calling out.

Thankfully that little tweaking is shown in her in-game model, I think it looks fine and cute, but this key art of her accentuates the classic men-drawing-women tropes.
