anyways, if you think people from other countries and ethnicities are exempt from criticism for whatever reason, like maybe they're not as terminally online or have different norms and culture or whatever, you have no backbone. stand up for what you believe in.

being untrusting is the nost exhausting and eroding state of being, and it's making every interaction worse, making everyone isolated and paranoid.
and unfortunately, it's not unreasonable.
evrrything that everyone does around us, intentionally or not, feels like a bsckstab.

the real main issue when it comes to "problematic media" discourse is that people don't trust each other, and the last decade or so has completely eroded what was there.

tbf i never considered that even cook books require writers, even though that is obvious as the blue sky.
I still think about the conversation I had with an uber driver
Him: so what do you do
Me: I’m a video game writer
Him: wait, video games? They have writing? What do you write?
Me: you know when you open up a game and you see the words?
Him: yeah?
Me: those

The funniest/saddest reaction to this amazing article has been people going "wait, Stellaris has WRITERS?"
Yes folks, if a game has words... someone probably got paid to write them... even if that game isn't an RPG or a visual novel...

you think ps studios referencing oyher ps ips is something that is forced on them, like the walking sections in spider man?

one of the lamest aspects of ghost of tsushima is how much it gassed up samurai warrior culture, and barely did anything for mongolians.
the most we got were the singing shamans in the dlc and mongolian artifacts.
that's it.
it is such japanophile game (derogatory)

a lot of cis men learn about concepts like sex-positivity, kink, or intersectionality, and get very excited that they can now publicly air their undisguised misogyny, fascination with rape, and desire to punish women and if you call them on it they get to call you a prude but "progressively"

I don't expect anyone to feel responsible for the all the horrible things happening around us.
but sometimes i wish i could just *see* that people care on some level.
i wish i could trust people.

Dressing this up in leftist jargon and invoking "rehabilitative justice" doesn't actually change what you're saying btw

tbh it bothers me that almost the only thing allos know about asexuality is that "ace people can have sex too! ace people are often the biggest sluts you know!" & they never acknowledge or even know that like 79% of aces report being sexually assaulted but only like 2% report having voluntary sex

ghost of tsushima is what assasin's creed has been for over a decade, and that's an indictment against AC cause narratively, AC combat works with ghost of tsushima.
AC should be more about stealth and espionage rather than cool dude beats everyone in the room.

games should incorporate a defeat state that isn't the protag dying.
like you lose a fight and protag is like "dang it, i get them next time" and receive penalties.
otherwise narratively your protag is on a perfect streak with no losses or challenges unless the story forces it on them.
