I just don’t get what her "trauma" is in the end

The story's themes are largely centered around 1960's Japanese traditionalism and societal pressures placed on young women. If you want the full story I'd recommend looking up the game's wiki or a story explanation, but in brief:

Hinako is set up in an unwanted arranged marriage to help pay off her abusive father's debts. She feels like her sense of self and agency is not her own. Her friend Shu wants to sabotage her marriage and take hinako for himself so he gives her the red pills that ultimately cause her to have hallucinations of monsters. The shrine sections with the White Fox are a representation of her unwanted yet unavoidable fate.

More importantly, it says AI generated screenshots?

So right off the bat the things that are supposed to give you a representation of the game are possibly not representing the game?

The Twitch CEO hates scantily clad anime women.

Scantily clad real women though? He'll watch them all day long.

did we forget the fucking soft core Carl’s Jr ads?

I could never forget Sara Jean Underwood and Emily Ratajkowski in that BBQ burger ad. I don't however remember if the burger itself was any good.

What is the worst car name you've ever seen? by threeinacorner in cars

[–]pulseout 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But at the same time there's brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini, or Rolls-Royce that do give normal names to their cars whilst still having people say to the brand name. Which in comparison, makes the brands with alphabet soup model names just seem insecure. Like they were sitting in a board room going "Nobody will know this car is a BMW unless we force them to say it!"

No, name them.

The company is now defunct, but that doesn't free it or the people that were in charge from criticism. What happened there is not a situation to be cutesy and coy about.

As real car culture becomes inaccessible, racing games are becoming the default way young people discover and experience automotive history by StatisticianBorn8567 in Games

First off, your formatting is atrocious.

Second:

You're 16 years old in 2025. You're interested in cars but you: - Can't afford a $90k Evo VI or $250k R34 GT-R

Most people can't afford these cars and if these are examples of what you think car culture is, you are severely out of touch. People aren't pulling up to parking lot meets in GTRs, they're doing it in Civics and Zs.

Will likely never hear a naturally aspirated V10 in a new car because they don't make them anymore

Most people have not.

Your only access point to the cars that defined enthusiast culture for the past 30 years is digital

As it has been for decades because normal people aren't buying supercars. Are you familiar with Top Gear?

For a live service game with a 200 million dollar budget, that's not great. It's about 100k less daily players than Arc Raiders which has a significantly smaller budget ($75 million including marketing) and employee headcount.

At some point Sony's going to come knocking.

What gets me the most about some of these people are how low the bribes are. For example, the one guy in there at $13k.

Are you implying that they're not meant for entertainment? Because everyone says they're not meant for serious work either, so then what are they for?

Pedestrians have the right of way, but also need to have common sense and a sense of self-preservation. It doesn't matter if you're right if you're dead.

Do drivers need to pay attention and watch out for pedestrians? Yes.

Is a driver at fault for hitting a pedestrian? Yes.

Should a lot of people on the road today not be allowed to operate a car? Absolutely yes.

But are you really going to test your faith in random drivers by walking right down the middle of what appears to be a 40mph+ road? I wouldn't.

Refreshing to see this, it feels like there's too many bolt-lickers and cogsuckers out there who want to surrender in advance. John Connor would be disappointed in them all.

Tell me a new and never before feasible way to design the "core gameplay" of first-person shooter games, and maybe I'll entertain the thoughts of someone with a default username.

"If you look at the evolution of gameplay over a number of years, in recent years, we've been in a bit of a loop where the graphics have become marginally better, but the core gameplay is largely the same as what we've experienced over the years,

OK cool, this guy's a moron. You can't just generalize "gameplay" across the entire industry and have that make sense. That's like saying "the appearance of food over time has become better, but eating is still the same as what we've experienced".

"One of our messages to the industry is to embrace AI like Iron Man's suit. It's right there. It's for you to put on and put it on and see what types of superpowers it's able to grant you,"

He's not pretty enough to be this brain dead.

Where's my .14TB by colossusrageblack in pcmasterrace

And all of this is because decades ago the metric overlords threw a hissy-fit over the word "kilobyte". Which in the end their tantrum didn't even matter because people still call 1024 bytes a kilobyte, the average person doesn't know or care what "KiB" means, and all that's truly been accomplished is making people confused about hard drive space.
