I do so love the chuds' new tact of "no, you define 'woke!'" Tickles me every time.

It's genuinely hilarious, because it's really easy to do, and when you do, they either turn tail and disappear, or come back with a meaningless post like homie up there did and then turn tail and disappear.

I see theyre trying once again to pull the just jokes bro excuse to be openly bigoted and transphobic. Embarrassing.

Guarantee none of the people here defending Chappelle were offended by his stand up back in the day as they cheer him on as the greatest comic ever.

The spin now is that you're a racist if you don't find his trans jokes as funny as his old jokes, because apparently that's the only possible way you might think that.

Or maybe, just maybe, his trans jokes actually aren't that funny because they're borne from a place of hatred and ignorance, and his old jokes at least seemed to come from a place of experience.

Regarding ClownC0re, they're definitely more of a novelty than anything else IMO. Though I do laugh at imagining folks in their neighborhood seeing this random minivan full of clowns go by playing music.

Calva Louise, that's one I stumbled across on Spotify and dug the vibe and message of. Glad it helped you out in some way!

To me it's like the gamefaqs moderation system. They have a TOS or whatever they call it now, everyone can read the rules but it's not specific at all. One day you get modded for posting YouTube videos another day you don't. You used to get modded for posting the word onlyfans but now you don't, we even had someone who posted onlyfLans and they still got modded even though that's not against the TOS.

For me I'm able to tell you that the worse sales ever for a PPV/PLE in WWE was Evolution which is a women's only ppv. It was only done because they went to Saudi Arabia where only the men competed and to make up for that they gave the women a ppv/ple. This was both good/bad because they would have to let the women compete in Saudi Arabia because making another women's only ppv would be a terrible business decision, since it wasn't successful and catered to a specific group which was women in this case, it is woke to me.

I wait for the results and then call it woke. I don't assume or give hypotheticals because that's how you end up being wrong like the examples given on previous posts. I'm neutral and wait for the results then call it woke.

So many words only to ultimately avoid actually providing a definition.

So you don't actually know what woke means to you, other than you whining about women is what I'm getting from this.

Aztex posted...

Words have different meanings for everyone regardless of the original context. It's how you say them and who you say it too as well.

Then you shouldn't be so scared to share your interpretation.

Aztex posted...

To those telling me to define woke you can do that yourself I would like to add that Tiktok went woke and it's on its way to being broke

LMAO predictable.

No because I'm aware that Nintendo plays in their own lane and has done so for 20+ years, and they're still making great games despite the hardware limitations.

So there is nothing? That's exactly what I thought. Take that seat.

Nah there's something but your reading comprehension is ass and you're going to continue to deflect and defend. Keep barking, sealion!

KitKats posted...

Referring to JK Rowling as a boogieman in this context is defending her because you are attempting to negate criticism of the harm she has caused and shut down opposition.

Well said, but he's not going to acknowledge this and is going to continue to deflect.

ROB45 posted...

Point out the post where I "defended" her. Go ahead, I'll wait.

My guy your deflections are incredibly transparent, I'm not playing this game with you.

There's no need to run in here and go "Shut up about JK Rowling" like you did, and to equate her to a boogieman like she's not an actual threatening shithead, unless you're deflecting and defending. Which you are!

ROB45 posted...

I can assure you, there are far greater problems for the trans community than some has been English author.

I mean yeah but she's not helping and is in fact actively making things worse, and so are you with your bizarre deflecting and defending of her.

So I don't get lost? Believe me, before this was a common thing, players used to spend tons of time running around in a room with all the enemies dead trying to find where they're supposed to go next.

Skill issue tbqh.

Good game design doesn't need handholding.

While I got y'all here, should I get Alan Wake Remastered for $10? Digital sale, usually $30

Absolutely.

The gameplay can feel a little dated and thus the game can drag, but the story and atmosphere and the world in general are top notch, particularly if you follow the plot threads and play Control and then Alan Wake 2. I also personally think the sound design is stellar.

Biggest piece of advice if you do play it is to break it up into episodic chunks; the game ends each episode with credits and the next episode will start with "Previously on Alan Wake..." and a TV show style recap so breaking it up into those chunks works really, really well.

Captain Marvel, She-Hulk went broke last time I checked

Are you able to define woke? I'm curious what makes those two properties "woke" in your eyes.

pokedude900 posted...

TBH, I'm starting to get the feeling that people don't even care whether she was trans in the original or not and just want any excuse to have her be trans in the English release. Femboys also exist, you know. Does it not matter if they're represented?

Really showing that you're a good faith poster with this one! Very convincing. But...

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Good faith poster continuing to post in good faith, I see.

I see that the deflection for this will be similar to Bridget in GG; "she's just a femboy!"

Anything to erase trans representation.

pokedude900 posted...

Okay, sincere question here. Was she ACTUALLY trans in the original Japanese Gamecube version's script? I've done as much research as I reasonably can, and I keep coming back to her being an otokonoko. Which can mean crossdresser or femboy. That is, someone who dresses or acts feminine, but identifies as male. Distinctly different from a trans woman.

If she was trans, then great. I'm happy that part of the translation is accurate and Nintendo isn't afraid to have a trans character in a major release. But if she wasn't, then I don't approve of them changing the script. There are tons of cases of censorship and pointless line changes in this remake already (why do they hate the word airhead so much?), so pardon me if I sound skeptical. Sure trans representation is cool, but it should be there from the start, not shoehorned in during localization (if that is in fact the case).

I just want the facts here. Whatever the original script was, I'm cool with it. And I do not like how the original English version scrubbed all references to it.

This post was definitely made in good faith. Definitely.

I don't know how it spun out into all of this but my original point is that Trump did not create or willingly post nazi propaganda. He's not secretly signalling to his boys in the back row. Some staffer of his saw the video someone else made and reposted it because it's pro-Trump. He's not paying attention, his staff isn't paying attention, no one is being held accountable for anything.

So needless deflection as people have been rightfully calling out from the jump, got it.

specialkid8 posted...

If you subscribe to the "one nazi at the table" rule that's perfectly fine. I'm just saying he does not personally have white supremacists, christian nationalist, or neo nazi ideologies himself. Those people like him though, so he likes or tolerates them. He will agree with anything that gets him the power and attention he craves.

Imagine running to Trump's defense with a "he's not a Nazi he just hangs out with them" argument.

Pathetic.

Keep deflecting, I'm sure it'll work someday!

specialkid8 posted...

Look, at the end of the day you have to choose if you think Trump is a bumbling dumbfuck or an insidious nazi who is hiding easter eggs for people to find. You can't have it both ways. I have made my choice.

He can be both a dumbfuck and a Nazi, the two aren't mutually exclusive. But keep running interference for him, you're not slick.

creativerealms posted...

Which is why I asked if the other games were more accurate. Because if the AC games did put more attention to detail in the past than these complaints are valid. But if they always played fast and loose with accuracy than that's just AC.

Yes they've always played somewhat fast and loose with accuracy.

They tend to focus on getting the big landmarks and cityscapes correct more than interiors, so like the pyramids in Origins or Notre Dame in Unity are really well realized. I imagine for Shadows most of the major landmarks will be well done.

specialkid8 posted...

I'm going with every word out of his mouth is a lie and he surrounds himself with incompetency but people still choose to take everything he says at face value or assume the worst interpretation because it fits their worldview. He has said and done enough actual awful things that we shouldn't be focusing on this boy who cried wolf nazi stuff. Let's focus on him actually being a corrupt asshole who will sell his vote for cash. He doesn't have any political opinions which makes him more dangerous than if he had an actual ideology. He will literally agree with anyone who pays him or pats him on the head. That's how he has corrupted the republican party into the modern party of hucksters, frauds, and snake oil salesmen.

"Every word out of his mouth is a lie" then why do you believe him when he and his team make claims that stuff like this is an accident?

"Boy who cried wolf nazi stuff" the guy literally has Nazis supporting him and at his rallies, how is that a boy who cried wolf scenario? Do you actually know that fable? I don't think you do.

This is a transparently sad attempt to deflect.

Sorry for being reasonable and not always pigeonholing everything into one cause and keeping an open mind.

LMAO this post is a deeply hilarious set of lies.

Why not both? I think he genuinely believes the stupid shit he says but also loves the attention it gets him.

He actually thinks his posts are contributions to the community lol

Road of Resistance's instrumentation was written by the dudes from Dragonforce, that's why.

I see kazi's desperate for attention again.
