Okay, so the hair isn’t doing her any favors, but so fucking what? That’s just personal opinion, and it’s no reason not to buy the game.
Speak for yourself, I love a woman with an Outer Rim perm
Women with any kind of visual character has become shorthand for "we're about to push our political agenda down your throat and call you a bigot if you don't pay us for the privilege"
so while it's not great to judge a book by it's cover ... that's the entire point of the cover.
Braindead take
I get that's the hype, but honestly, have you ever actually been called a bigot?
This shit gets astoundingly spicy, multiple groups planting extremely firm flags against each other. Somehow an attractive female character is a sign of the culture war. Both having one and not having one, it's honestly very crazy and appears to be mostly a phenomenon on YouTube and Twitter/X.
But yeah, people be throwing every insult in the book at eachother, it was not uncommon to be referred to as a transphobic bigot on the last one of these (Hogwarts legacy). It's not uncommon to get referred to as a misogynistic bigot on this one.
I'm trying not to engage, and if I actually want to play something that's involved in one of these stupid fights (stellar blade now, Hogwarts then, or one of the games on the SBI detected group), I have to hide it on steam. Just cause I'm not sure if I'm gonna have to block one of my friends for being a fucking moron and both groups are rabidly angry at each other. Whether it's legitimate or not, I don't give a fucking shit!
Yeah it's totally crazy anyone would call jk Rowling a transphobe! /s
JK Rowling is for sure a transphobe, the backlash against that game (sales Numbers showed how many people have a shit about that connection) was stupid.
The arguments were just something you agree with, I just wanted to play the game without engaging in the ridiculous and over the top backlash.
It's all the same shit, someone doesn't want me to play a game cause they have some fucking issue, and I don't care what it is! Big tits, the involvement of story consultants, the writer of the original story went insane, none of those things affect the game for me.
You gave a transphobe money and you don't care. That's what you just said. Yeah, shocker anyone could get upset about that
Yeah see, you are one of those terminally online freaks who actually engage in this fucking nonsense. No one cared, everyone still bought the game, they just agreed with you to not get in an argument.
Same with these freaks against sweet baby Inc, or people against stellar blade because of the model, or some idiot getting mad the main character has a natural bone structure.
This shit only plays on these spaces, including Twitter and YouTube.
Edit: in fact, I have a fun challenge for you. Now that most of the backlash has ended, ask howvl ever many of your friends have a steam account, who bought and hid it. You can hide them on steam, ask and see how many tell you the truth, I bet it won't be only 1!
Your stupid assumptions aren't really important, but your admission that giving a piece of shit your money without a care is. It reflects on you, a conservative nitwit. And no that's that's not an assumption. You told me that principles were stupid and worthy of mocking
Also I don't have many friends who game, but out of the ones I do have, silly games made for 1995-born children aren't really their thing even if they didn't have principles.
Further, idiot, what exactly makes a popular opinion morally correct? Slavery is just the easiest example of reprehensible shit that was fine with most people. What is even your whiny point?
Did you just slippery slope into slavery because you were losing an argument? Did you just call me a conservative as a perjorative cause you don't like my opinion? That's crazy.
Lemmy is the only place I can get called a liberal as fuck by a tankie and conservative by a culture warrior.
Listen if you don't have many friends who game, that doesn't surprise me.
Again, I like games, unless the studio is mistreating employees, I don't fucking care! I'm sorry, that's where I draw the line. Fuck Blizzard, fuck ubi soft, I don't care whatever culture war garbage you want to engage in, it doesn't effect me
- There's clearly a lot in the world you don't understand. I guess 23 year olds maybe aren't the smartest people after all
- "Conservative" isn't a perjorative unless you know what one is, so you're good
- It's almost comical that "voting with your wallet" is considered to be cUlTuRe WaR GaRbAgE by you and then you want to be taken seriously on a platform made by and for political idealists
Yeah every game I don't buy screams "bigot!" As I scroll by it on steam... and the doctor says I need meds! Pfft
