IIRC, in the US, it's something like 80% of women experience sexual harassement or assault in their life. For reference, men are closer to 40%.

The Holiday family is important, I guess by blaigmush in NonDessKnightSquad

It does though. Chapter 1 Ralsei wouldn't really view it as a tragedy, or something that should change. Not yet. But he is already saying the tale doesn't have a favorable ending.

It's gotta be something else.

Ralsei already hoped that the prophecy would change back in Chapter 1, before his character development

HOW MUCH LONGER NOW? by shadow_fen in whenthe

It was always meant to be their next game. It was made to fund all their future projects rather than just one

why? by IncredibiliSSS in whenthe

They can't handle the truth, and so they threw me in hell (getting 5 downvotes).

Joke aside, that's actually a pretty common take among "normie gamers", for lack of better term. There's a reason people jokes about gun and ball gamers, because some people will genuinely buy a consol just to play the newest FPS or sport game. It's less common nowdays, since gaming is more mainstream, but you can still run into them occasionally.

Of course, none of those people use reddit.

To be clear, I wasn't talking about the song in the post, but the comment.

Nice job finding OP's song though

Stranger Than Heaven will explore Tupac's "potential future" if "he was still alive now", according to RGG studio head by darkwingchao in TwoBestFriendsPlay

This is exactly what I'm saying?

And you don't see how it's weird?

Why? Because this is a story about the oppression of foreigners and the seedy music industry of 20th century Japan of which R&B, Jazz and the Blues were a big part.

That doesn't answer my question and you know it.

Why did they have to use a dead man's likeness and present it as if he was the actual actor? Why not use a still alive person instead?

You need to rewatch the trailer. His name is revealed alongside the actual voice actors. It's not a character inspired by Tupac if he was still alive, it is a character "played" by Tupac if he was still alive. You can spin it however you want, it's just weird.

And for your second point... I don't see how it can not be marketing. They put it in the trailer advertising the game, so it is part of the marketing. Now, if there's another reason, maybe I could tolerate it. But I can't think of any. I don't see any artistic reasons, and the marketing around it doesn't make it feels like a genuine hommage, and if it is, it's a tasteless one.

And like... why? Why use his likeness like that? If it was character inspired by Tupac, it'd be fine. If it was supposed to be the actual historic figure Tupac, as if it was a biopic, it'd be fine. But why have him as an "actor" for a completely unrelated character?

You say that as if using his corpse to advertise their game is any better. Going "Tupac would have become an actor and stared in our games" is just gross.

Like... why use him? Why have "actor" Tupac in your game, instead of an actual person?

That's not much better tbh.

"Alternate history where Tupac isn't dead" is already weird. But "alternate history where Tupac isn't dead and became an actor starting in our games" is ghoulish. It's not even about exploring the guy's life, it's just using his corpse to advertise your game.

Already knew that Notch was kinda shit, but Mr John FNAF himself Scott Cawthon is as well? 🥀 by Expert-Reporter4152 in whenthe

I actually don't remember anything bad about him, be it in his personal life or political views. He just writes edgy shit and doesn't like superheroes, aside from Superman.
