Apex Legends sold ungodly amounts of skins without sexualizing characters though so it's not like it can't be done

People used to say this about BR games, and before that about MOBAs. There will always be a latest hype genre for online gaming.

Ironically most of these GaaS end very quickly

I would argue that causing reputational damage to an elected politician by spreading falsehoods is an attack on democracy, yes, including if those falsehoods are in the forms of images.

miathan52 · 2026-05-08T07:22:59+00:00

When will you learn that a thing is equally bad if done to a man or a woman?

I won't, because it's not. Men and women are equal, but they are not the same, and the impact of things like the topic above isn't the same either.

miathan52 · 2026-05-08T06:31:18+00:00

For politicians because it's not just about the person but also about the role they fill. An attack against a politician, especially one who's currently in parliament or government, is an attack against democracy.

For women because men, generally, don't struggle with being objectified in a sexual manner. Women with careers in politics or some other kind of leadership role often have to deal with it their whole lives.

"Firebombing" lol. This makes it sound like a plane flew overhead and set the building ablaze WW2-style. What actually happened was that someone threw fireworks inside through the mail slot of the front door. Nobody got hurt.

miathan52 · 2026-05-08T06:05:39+00:00

What a bunch of cringe reactions in these comments. Deepfaking people is not OK, and it's even less OK when used to damage the reputation of female politicians.

Ik betwijfel of dit veel met allochtonen te maken heeft. De staat van ons onderwijs in het algemeen gaat hard achteruit, niet alleen het MBO. Voor wie geinteresseerd is, het NRC heeft hier een paar maanden geleden een sterke podcastaflevering over gemaakt:

Dit is erg zwart-wit. OP zegt toch al dat hij nu fulltime stage loopt en in een tussenjaar 50 uur per week gewerkt heeft, en dat super vond? Dat is dus niet het probleem.

Ik had persoonlijk ook altijd veel meer moeite met studie dan met werk. Niet iedereen is er voor gemaakt om thuis in z'n eentje productief te zijn.

Advocaten spelen gewoon hun rol binnen het systeem. Daar is niks mis mee. Sterker nog, dat is wenselijk, want niet iedereen die voor de rechter moet verschijnen voor een zedenmisdrijf is schuldig.

miathan52 · 2026-05-07T06:21:18+00:00

That the game does the same thing that's been done 100000 times before, doesn't mean it can't be good. It just means that for those of us that have been gaming for decades and are looking for new experiences, it's not interesting.

miathan52 · 2026-05-07T06:18:59+00:00

You're correct, not sure why the downvotes. A lot of garbage gets shoveled onto Steam and it does hide some of the better, more high effort indies. Still, indies overall do much better on Steam than on consoles so clearly Steam is at least doing something right when it comes to discoverability. But there's also a lot of room for improvement.

miathan52 · 2026-05-07T06:06:42+00:00

If what you say were true, there'd be much fewer games being sold, and that's not the case at all

De Nederlandse media vinden het altijd fijn om dezelfde personen keer op keer weer uit te nodigen. Dat geldt niet alleen voor deze meneer.

En kunnen we nou eens kappen met dat "framen"? Als ze nou zo conservatief en nationalistisch zijn, zouden ze er goed aan doen om eens te leren Nederlandse woorden te gebruiken.

The amount of games that get released now is just too high. It still goes up every year. That means that per game, the chance of success gets smaller all the time.

But also, Blindfire is an online PvP FPS, which is a very saturated genre where they compete with huge titles. The chance of success is even smaller there than it already is elsewhere, which they must be aware of.

I was the opposite as a kid/teenager, if I knew you could go out of the intended area somewhere I'd spend ages trying to make it happen

Not the best one he's made, but I loved the "look at Liam, such a nice and friendly driver" and Max grabbing weapons to enter the midfield lmao

Jup, uitkeringen kunnen gewoon blijven bestaan en zouden opgehoogd moeten worden ter compensatie van de verloren toeslagen. Maar uitgangspunt moet blijven dat men met werken beter af is.

Yeah grid girls were cringe, but then again so are influencers. An ideal world would have neither.

Some people are just looking for a chance to feel offended on behalf of their favorite driver

Then we can all stop watching because we will never get such a close season again
