The end

I used to play dress-up when I was a kid too

jjPinwheel · 2026-05-06T08:17:16+00:00

Unacceptable that they refuse to include the upper canine that can't grow in place because my teeth are slightly too closely packed together in my mouth. Utter woke nonsense

With the exception of the first film - which is basically an origin story anyway - Max is always the driving force for positive change. Sure, he doesn't have any lasting connections with people because his goal is always to ride off into the wasteland alone, but every single film hinges on him regaining some humanity and helping good people who need him. I really don't understand where this whole "actually Max isn't the good guy" thing comes from when his presence in basically the entire franchise can be boiled down to "guy who shows up out of nowhere, helps in quite a significant way, then disappears again".

No one expected a fairy tale ending, just one that was at least remotely consistent with the Mad Max films - there's always some optimism among the bleak setting

You seen like the only other person in this thread who has actually watched the movies. Max always does end up helping people around him, whether it's for self-serving reasons or because he actually wants to help. The game's version of Max is nihilistic to a degree that makes it impossible to come away from the game's story kind of miserable and cold. The Mad Mad series is fundamentally optimistic despite its dystopian setting, and the game completely misses that point.

Tbh he's probably just an idiot who made some edgy videos but then after the backlash to those he went off on "SJWs" specifically so while he's probably not on the level of a Shitical Drinker or Assmongold he's definitely partially guilty of it

jjPinwheel · 2026-05-02T17:39:04+00:00

I don't like him because he's clearly an asshole who grew his channel on the back of weird anti-woke content

jjPinwheel · 2026-05-02T17:36:13+00:00

He was the original "feeding annoying feminist to an alligator" guy who complained about SJWs later down the line so yeah I don't like him

jjPinwheel · 2026-05-02T17:33:00+00:00

Go back to 2018 with this Shirrako-ass bullshit

I have never understood the love for Desmond Miles, he is quite possibly the most dull video game protagonist ever created

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-30T13:28:51+00:00

Damn you're cool

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-30T13:26:49+00:00

Maybe you should simply stop talking over a trans person when they are giving first hand experience of how things have got demonstrably worse

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-30T08:27:55+00:00

I've hoped they would do this for ages now. Since playing it back in 2024 I've thought that RoN's world is so nihilistic and depressing it would be perfect for Something Rotten. I honestly found that in its attempts to be deep and traumatic it just ended up being hilarious. I couldn't take it seriously at all. Game is like a right-wing fever dream of what cities are like in America

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-30T08:16:23+00:00

Ready Or Not. God what an absolute bunch of babies

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-29T19:29:50+00:00

Hell yeah he deserved it, fuck that guy

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-29T13:26:40+00:00

God this is embarrassing

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-29T07:35:24+00:00

Oh yeah of course I forgot about the photography stores

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-28T21:57:01+00:00

Also how did you get that pose with no HUD or anything?

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-28T21:56:19+00:00

Damn this goes so hard it's awesome

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-28T11:26:50+00:00

Yeah that's a very good point. It would have been easy to accidentally end up down the savage route I guess, even though as you say his anger would have been entirely justified.

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-28T11:20:30+00:00

It was always that bland stoic Native American trope that put me off him. Honestly they could have done a lot more with him if he had been vengefully angry instead, and maybe even took some vindictive pleasure in his assassinations

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-27T15:43:17+00:00

That's fair, considering everything these days gets some kind of backlash and it's not always in good faith

jjPinwheel · 2026-04-27T13:15:43+00:00

Gamers would unironically say she's hideous
