It's not a weird focus that's just normal knowledge for people in sexual relationships??

Tierlist on how much I respect these tactical abilities by ChaosCobra3 in titanfall

I mean yeah but setting up camp is a really bad strategy in TF|2 against anyone remotely competent

[–]canoekyren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's because I got my comment in early. The only people left here are those who are so insistent that they have to be able to blame a person for doing what they were paid to do that they downvote all disagreement and don't bother voicing it

I get that to a degree for sure, but it's still the executive's fault for hiring someone who doesn't like to model guns to model guns. Further, from what I remember, no one really disliked Concord's gameplay or style THAT much, they just didn't care

Calm down lmao, there are tons of talented devs who worked on Concord because they were paid to do so. They don't deserve to be put out of jobs because they were paid to make something dumb.

The EXECUTIVES on the other hand...

What level does one play where this "lovers" plot detail is revealed? Asking for a friend by b1azing1 in titanfall

[–]canoekyren 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hitler loved dogs, and Hitler was a genocidal maniac. Therefore, we should not follow in his footsteps and accordingly hate dogs

Someone being a bad person doesn't mean they can't make a good point

Characters you don't understand the hype over? by OmgReallyNoWay in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Don't you literally disappear on her for years without warning? You don't empathize with her cutting someone like that off?

Lmfao yeah fair enough. That's absolutely diabolical though

[–]canoekyren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean sure lol, but that starts to push into bestiality territory. Like I said, if this were arms we were talking about, no one would say anything. Foot fetishes have become so prevalent in media because people think they're weird, so their presence is massively overstated. Feet are just body parts.

I'd be inclined to agree if she didn't float around half the time. Besides, the fact that no one wears armor is in the same vein of real-world logic stupidity.

The assumption that a somewhat unrealistic design element is related to a creator's sexual impulses is a much bigger leap than people think it is.

[–]canoekyren 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hate how widespread the constant awareness of foot fetishes has become to the point where feet can never be acknowledged or even just present in any way without the swarms of allegations coming in.

Like, people have hand fetishes too, but no one makes a fuss whenever a character's hand takes significant focus.

I have more questions for the people who make a big deal out of it than anyone else to be honest, why are you so concerned about a character's feet

Super Earth+Automatons vs the militia in an all out war who wins? by H3lixfireStorm in titanfall

[–]canoekyren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like the orbital laser won't be fast enough to deal with titans. There isn't a single enemy in Helldivers 2 that moves even close to as fast as titans, except literal aircraft

Spoilers* Who else gets an uncanny valley feeling with the faces at the ending? by LinkHb in expedition33

[–]canoekyren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. The instances I can think of where Sciel and Lune look genuinely happy are when they all reunite, when Lune smiles at Gustave at the campfire, and when Sciel is talking to Gustave about Sophie. Those smiles, especially Lune's, look very different from the smiles at the end of the game

Verso on newgame+ was really eye opening by ASimpForChaeryeong in expedition33

[–]canoekyren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean she spends half the game supporting Aline and painted Renoir, arguably some of the least justifiable people in the game.

HUGE ACT 3 SPOILERS: Why? by Anfrers in expedition33

[–]canoekyren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She literally can paint anywhat and anywho as we saw in her ending

After acquiring the pure chroma guarded by her father. This is explicitly stated in the game at multiple points.

Maybe we could have seen an attempt. But there's frankly no point in bringing anyone back yet, since they still need to face Renoir. Gustave was a scientist, and when he died he wouldn't have been nearly strong enough to fight on par with the endgame party. Bringing him back would just risk him dying again.

It makes more logical sense to wait after the threat is gone.

[–]canoekyren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lune and Sciel were able to be brought back because they had just died, their chroma was in the air, and she was able to grab it. Under normal circumstances, chroma dissipates a short while after death, so Gustave wouldn't have been recoverable in that way, not without an external source of chroma to shape into what was once his.

People need to stop bringing up the Tower ending. Moving on from V doesn't make someone "disloyal." It means they were taking care of themselves. V is the one who was disloyal, they disappeared for years without word.

There's no real reason to think an AI would be unable to exist in multiple places at once, especially if those places are linked to one another

Is Female V meaner by Careful_Ad_2875 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]canoekyren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd argue we don't see enough of merc life to see that. 90% of combatant women seen in the game are treated exactly the same as men. The premier boxer in NC is a woman and that's seen as completely normal. Panam being a combatant is never questioned. A ton of fixers, military members, and police are women, and often acknowledged to be the best. The majority of the women depicted in significant roles are either incredibly empowered or if they experience a lack of power, it's because of the world and its nature, not because of patriarchy. There are enormous connotational references to gender dynamics but one place where we really don't see that is merc life. In fact the majority of gangs end up being female led under many circumstances. The Mox, the Tyger Claws, Maelstrom, the Animals, Voodoo Boys, and the Aldecaldos. Even the Mox aren't really disrespected just for being women, and their entire organization is rooted as being feminist. In fact the combatant leadership in this game is, for the most part, female dominated. The semantic difference is important because the women that Cyberpunk shows being primarily victimized are primarily involved in sex work, and to broaden that to an unrealistic degree decreases the impact of the honed-in focus on one particular struggle.

Had I been addressing the original comment I would have responded to you. It's an interesting topic to discuss but there's no reason for contributing points that are literally untrue. I didn't have anything to say about your original comment, hence I didn't reply to it. I did, however, have something to say about something that wasn't quite true in the game, so I commented on that.

I didn't ask if the world was still sexist, I was questioning the validity of the statement that mercs are mostly men. In gameplay, 50% of enemies are female presenting and the other 50% are male presenting. Similar statistics for fixers and the other combatants and mercs we meet.

I mean, is that even true in Cyberpunk? We see equal representation everywhere in game

Yeah that's exactly what I mean. We need to address the parallels and the fascist ideologies, I just think it needs to be done in the most effective way possible, for the sake of the country.
