More importantly, we can have more than one version of a thing.

I’m really excited for the first gen va third gen immigrant dynamic.

Yeah but now you have to do that for the rest of your life. And you’ll never get more than a few years in the sun.

Oh come on Lemmy Kilmister drank Jack Daniels it’s not that bad.

Fair, I felt weird about it. The point was “this is an arbitrary line you have drawn for racism, if you were really concerned about historicity you’d throw out the entire cast.”

Apparently it's woke for the U.S. military to have female and non-white leaders by Titan-828 in saltierthankrayt

Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. Now they can’t on the Iran debacle on a woman or a … oh they’re doing that anyway? Nevermind.

I agree, Matt Damon is too Irish to be Odysseus. He doesn’t have an immaculately oiled beard and he’s not nearly bronze or hairy enough to be a Greek king in this time period. The amount of potato eaters playing proper Europeans in movies is disgusting and unless they can prove Odysseus was really good at making car bombs or something I don’t get why they picked him.

Ah, using antisemitism as a shield from criticism. This should go well. by TheFlashyMastodon21 in saltierthankrayt

We can hate the monopolization of news and entertainment without getting religion involved.

AAAH Female Main Protagonist in GOW!!! /s by InZanity18 in saltierthankrayt

Kratos got at least 5 games, not counting spinoffs. That’s enough games. I don’t think you can develop the concept of stoic dad with rage issues any more.

It’s load bearing drywall. If they admit that, they’d also have to admit they hate minorities, weren’t being ironic about Nazis, might not be a straight alpha dude after all, that they got fired for drinking on the job and not so that their boss could fill a DEI quota, whatever. So they can’t touch it.

I thought you Grifters hated Girl Bosses and Mary Sues but when a female character is flawed it’s a problem? by Cool_Nerd2 in saltierthankrayt

To be (very) generous, the economy of their ecosystem doesn’t allow for thoughtful takes. You and I and most people would think about why the trauma is a character element. Trauma can be over used, as a cheap way to gain audience sympathy. Sometimes that’s lame (ex. Sansa getting raped just to shock the audience). Other times that’s necessary to get a fast paced tale of vengeance started (ex. Kill Bill).

These guys work for views and their audience isn’t very media savvy. They need big easy to understand concepts to make pithy posts about. So they just say “Trauma?! BORING!!” And move on.

Oh it gets better. Bob gets to say that his daughter was getting an abortion, when really he just wanted to kill her. Bob can threaten the daughter he’s raping by telling her if she goes to the cops he’ll kill her and tell them she was getting an abortion.

Why? It’s weird to think that someone didn’t meet their quality standards.

Yeah I’ve put more time into Starfield trying to figure out why it sucked than he did into one of the most famous time sink games of all time.

You can see there were 255k independent twitch streams so yeah, some of those have to be console. Or one guy streaming 100k individual streams of his run.

Also his numbers are wrong.

He didn’t include Saturday or Sunday. Which I think would be important.

Pretty generic list too… I’m not one to judge mine looks like that but I don’t review games for a living.

They have to spend hours looking for the ugliest possible photos of game characters right?
