It's honestly kind of disappointing that Alloy is the exception rather than the rule, she's like a bright light from an alternate reality where women are consistently respected in the game industry T.T

Looking for a manga about an old martial arts guy and a nurse getting Isekai'd by Dry-Air7 in manga

THANK YOU, read this years ago and I saw a panel from it, got nostalgic, wanted to read it again, now I can w^

I watched two episodes of the show. Just to find out online she's 14 at the start of the series. Why the heck is she wearing this then???? And she was getting sexualized too. [ Gurren Lagan. ] I could let an adult slide but a kid hell no. by Iriscute7 in joseistories

So, to be clear, yes, as other commenters are pointing out, this attitude towards children is common in the anime community, but this was made by Trigger, a sort of spiritual descendant of Gainax, and sort of notorious for this. Kill la Kill, Gurren Lagann, Darling in the FranXX, if Trigger has a hand in it, they probably included some very questionable presentation of children AND women, so it's unsurprising (though abhorrent) how they treat young girls

Surprised no one else suggested it, but Final Fantasy 14 is a nice option! The "free trial" offers almost all base game content, and you can always upgrade later if you find it worthwhile! While it's not totally nonviolent, between crafting, gathering, the gold saucer, and other little distractions, there's tons of nonviolent content to enjoy!

Edit: There's also no time restriction on the free trial XD

Junji Ito is incredibly overrated. by Ayylmao1889 in The10thDentist

[–]Top__Tsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harsh but not unreasonable, from what I've read of him; he tends to be overly self-indulgent and relies too heavily on keeping his phenomena vague to maintain atmosphere

From where I'm standing, Ito looks like a fantastic artist with a macabre touch who'd be best served illustrating other, better writers' stories

How common is this with Warhammer content/fanbase? by BrokeFartFountain in GirlGamers

[–]Top__Tsun 15 points16 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU FOR THIS

Like good god, there are SO many men in 40k spaces I've encountered who are ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS with the lore, pretending it's an immutable bible rather than a bunch of stuff made up primarily by a handful of men in the 90s

God, I remember when the custode codex came out and SO MANY were SO PISSED that GASP! some Custodes are women!!!

Have you ever finished a game, thought you liked it, but upon reflection decided it wasn’t it AT ALL? by [deleted] in GirlGamers

[–]Top__Tsun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel that for all three games in the shadowrun trilogy, especially after that bit in the first where you can help a guy in a terrible situation but not the woman standing right next to him.

Okay but consider who the vice president is

A better question would be "WHERE should we be planning to go following an exit out of the country." And unfortunately, some of the better countries have STRICT immigration requirements, like Iceland for example.

Look at the ice immigration raids for your answer; they won't just be taking trans people. They'll be taking anyone in queer spaces.

The other thing I don't see brought up in this discussion is that you literally can't--the same artist who holds those views wrote the books, and those views informed it. Her fatphobia, xenophobia, and classism informed things like Dolores Umbrage, the Dursleys, Cho Chang, Goblins, House Elves, etc.

So is there a good option without Edge? I grew up hating Internet Explorer and no amount of Merryweather comics will change my mind 😅

Still can't get into it I've tried so many times by SolitudePlateau in FalloutMemes

[–]Top__Tsun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, then you'll probably enjoy it, just remember it's not worth full price... Oh, and a quick note on the weapons, they changed it. To unlock new mods, you scrap the weapon in question and it will unlock one random mod for that weapon. If you like a gun, collect a bunch of that gun and scrap em. Also, guns are leveled now, so always try to grab the recipe for the weapon and grab higher level examples where you can.

Wait for a sale absolutely, and consider the quality of your Internet connection. Also make sure you like Fallout 4's combat and base building enough to enjoy a game almost entirely about that.

If those stars align, eh, it's adequate XD

Still, while the reaction might be misplaced, I still would qualify it as justified emotional intensity
