"Most of the filth that gets thrown around the internet isn't aimed at the straight white man, which most of us posting in this thread are. So I don't think we can get inside the heads of people who are the targets of much worse abuse than we'll ever suffer and say, "What's wrong with you? That shouldn't hurt."" O RLY? I've been threatened with rape, murder, and all other sorts of giggle inducing stuff. I find it hilarious because it is meaningless internet junk. "And we've got to remember what Louis CK said in a standup special a couple years ago--"I'm a white man. You can't even hurt my feelings!"" Yeah, because we all know white men aren't even human and therefore have no feelings and can't be hurt. LMAO Tell that to the many white male victims of rape in the church (as one example). LMAO

"Female", not necessarily. (There are valid usages for that, though they've been few & far between in this thread.) "Females", yes. It comes from the clinical/biological usage of it. Connotations of reducing people to their body, which.. is a bit of a problem with women in society. (Also a potential transphobic element if emphasis is placed on the biology/body.) Any species can be female, only humans can be women. (Assuming current real-world perspective. Fictional species need not apply.) That adds a dehumanising element as well. (Not a great indicator for discourse on treating people as equals, is it?) Female/male are adjectives, woman/man/person are nouns. So it's also grammatically... less-than-optimal. (Part of it is also from the sort of person that typically refers to women as "females", because they aren't exactly the sort to harbour uh.. 21st century views.) Repeated usage of "females" from some users was definitely coming off as a bit weird at the very least." Are you insane? Then again, as a MALE (omg i'm anti man since I am emphaszing my body lol), this kind of thing is silly. Male/man or female/woman are interchangable. On the earlier convo, Bruce shouldn't feel shame about apartheid if he had nothing to do with it. I feel no shame about slaveryor what happened to the Indians. I have never bought or sold a slave so why the hell would I feel sorry about it anymore than I would feel shame/guilt over the fact that my birth father was a scumbag criminal? I don't. LMAO I feel empathy for the actual victims of slavery but I do not feel guilt over it. Guilt is something one should feel when they are guilty. AS for people usually preferring to hire those of their own social group/race/gender. This is actually true of everyone not just old white males. Just look at any black celebrity. Their pose are overwhelmingly black way above the population % level. Nobody blinks an eye at the obviously bias/racism going on. Neither do I, but it's a point ignored due tor racism. I mean it's okay for minorities to be bigots but not majorities? LMAO How can one feel unsafe on the internet? You can't be hurt on the internet. I've had multiple people threaten my life, send me porn pics, and do/say all slorts of nasty things. I've never felt 'unsafe'. Now, if the person tracks you down to you in real life... then feel unsafe. Then again, we all know in the modern world, men are just monstrous rapists who live for one thing - controlling, raping, beating, and holding women down. Only a sexist thinks that. Just like someone who thinks a woman's only place is in the kitchen or on her back in the bedroom is also sexist. They are both scumbags. Misogynists and feminists should both marry each other because theya re both types of scumbag sexists. I've had female bosses and never had an issue with 99.9% of them just like 90% of my male bosses. R00fles!

Yeah, it was weird how things worked out, but the top 4 teams are in the final four (I'm sure a couple of other teams could make a case they belong in the convo but oh well). MIA in 6 OKC in 6 But, would not be surprised if either goes to 7. And, Indy beating MIA would be an upset. SA beating OKC would not be.

Feminists are sexist. It's that simple. I prefer equality. Something feminists and misogynists are both against. Both of those groups are evil and all about bashing and belittling the other gender. DISGUSTING.

The entire ES series sucks. Trying to argue over which is worse/better is laughable. L0L

"I think the only problem with that list is that Skyrim and Fallout 3 didn't make it. You can say what you want about them, but they're not bad RPGs and I'd recommend them to any newbie of the genre." No. They suck. Plain and simple. There is NOTHINg good about them.

"You really think so? They took the Clippers to 7 without their top center, and the year before they competed well with a Spurs team that swept two teams and made the finals. What do you think needs to change on their roster?" Get better players. "To Volo's point, The starting 5 is arguably the best in the NBA: plus/minus and pts per possession scored/allowed is the best 5 man unit in the NBA" HAHAHAA! I look at that roster and I laugh. They simply aren't good enough and will not win a championship with it as is. I just don't see them beating 4 top teams in a best of 7 series. Not gonna happen.

Mkreku is likely lying or exaggerating. Like any serviceable internet too school for you guy. Or, he might just mean their personalities. Because if he knew hot women he would not be spamming the internet. he'd be enjoying their company. Then again, they probably friend zoned him so he uses the internet to brag about 'all the hot girls he knows'. L0L P.S. Keep up with the hot pics, everyone.

"With the Warriors you get a young talented team that can potentially win a championship in the near future with a little help." Not with their current roster. They a re simply not good enough to truly compete with The Big Boys tm in a 7 game series.

Man, you guys are so repetive that I have to be as well. You are wrong just like the otherrs. Zombies (stereotypical ones) aren't known for intelligence which the darkspawn do have. Any more jokers need to make up obviously bogus stuff that i can smack down? I have no time issues. I have at least 50 years barring an unseen event to do this.

"Apart from Awakenings they were utterly generic Tolkienesque cliches though, right down to human/ dwarf -> hurlock/ genlock mirroring elf/ ent -> orc/ troll direct from Tolkien himself. They did their job as mooks to the slaughter but that's about the best that can be said of them." I disagree with this false ignorant assessment.

"They're basically copy & paste orcs and goblins, without being remotely as interesting as orcs or goblins. At least with orcs and goblins there is potential for inter-tribe relations and intrigue and they have motivation beyond just "must kill everybody"." No.

"Miami has to be loving this. Their path to the Finals couldn't possibly be any easier. I'd be quite surprised if they lost a total of more than 3 games before the Finals." Eh. Indy will take them to at least 6 games. But, Indy was never gonna beat MIA and the idoots who ever thoguht Indy was at MIA's level are stupid. How many times must MIA beat Indy in the playoffs to clinch that fact? Gonna make it a hattrick. Just like people thoguht NJ had MIA's 'number' b/c they swept them in the RS. LMAO

"but it is the best RPG story ever written.. probably the best story of any game, regardless of genre." No. "Btw, people should bear in mind that according to my last count (back in the day when I had a higher tolerance for tedious tasks) there were around 170 or so cRPG's (minus MMO) released altogether, so getting into the top 70 ain't exactly as prestigious as it sounds. The number is a guesstimate now, since I stopped maintaining the list ages ago, but it shouldn't be too far off." Define CRPG. That number can be huge or miniscule depending what kind of RPGs you are counting. \The list is fine and not rage worthy. It's Codex list so it'll be biased towards Codex approved games. Not shocking.

"I agree, they're some of the most boring monsters ever devised. Bioware has managed to invent something new that ... hasn't got a single original thing in it. A contradiction there, but true in a way." No.

No, they aren't valid. WAA WAA Men are attracted to hot women in skimpy outfits. Big friggin' deal. Women are attracted to men in skimpy outfits. Big friggin' deal. \Being attracted to the opposite gender (or same gender for that matter) is not evil. objectivyng anything, or misogyny, or any other nonsensical term one comes up with. It's nature. Blame god. Blame nature. Blame evolution. Blame the big gang. Blame biology. Do women who love boy bands, soap operas, male exotic dancers, football players for the butts being in tight uniforms,or Harlequin Romances man haters and objectifying them? COME ON.

He's not a dwarf. He's a human who is short. Period. Are you saying dwarves/midgets/height challenged people aren't humans in real life? O.O.

He's not a dwarf. He's human.

"But for the record I'm not a man hater, I just believe in the absolute equality and fair representation of the genders where its logical, for example I don't think it would be fair for the men's and women's rugby team to play against each other in a full contact game" Yeah, you are a man hater. Just as important, you have a low respect for women sicne you view them as weak children who need to be babysat and coddled. \ Anyways, my bad, I let you troll me there. Back to the game... DA3 will have good things and it will have bad things. It will be better than certain people think it is and it will be worse than what other people think it is. That is life.

"Volo I've mentioned this to you before but the main issue some people have with your comments is that at times you make controversial but short, or monosyllable, posts and then don't engage in debate around what you think. But I have noticed a real effort on your part lately to explain what you mean. So keep up the more informative explanations I know you don't like being referred to as a Troll ( who does I know it annoys me when people say I'm a troll ) and your opinion is valid even if people don't agree. But you will get more people taking you seriously if you continue to engage in proper debating etiquette" *yawn* I'll take you seriously when you stop being a self hating man hater. L0L And, actually discuss topics instead of posters. Can't wait to see the best dwarf ever in action again!

"Volo, STFU." No. P.S. DA3 > ME3

"An unknown eastern European developer making a 40 hour RPG as their first game to compete on the world market with Bioware then proceed to sell around 3 million copies of the game by word of mouth.... fiasco?" I wouldn't call it a fiasco myself. But, yous eem surprised? Witcher 1 was heavily pimped by BIO themselves. If you try to poo poo that connection than you just poo poo the whole iidea of 'word of mouth' that you mentioned sicne BIO has lots of people they can connect with . And, yeah, it sold 3mil copies but it did so because it got like 25,000 releases and the fanboys bought each one. L0L I don't know if Witcher actually has a million buyers sicne people just keep rebuying it. Heh. It should be pointed out that CCP nearly went bankrupt as well so all that money they supposedly paid barely did much. Not to mention all the projects they continually cancel. \ They have no original. Their one IP is based on someone else's work, and they have literally beat it to death. Good on them. Sale their Witcher 20.

Why are you crying? Discuss the game (s) not the person. I'm not here to be your buddy. I am her to discuss games. I entered this trhead to disucss DAI but people liek you want to discuss Witcher so I obliged you. You are just mad because I don't love it like you do. Go post in the Witcher thread if you don't like different opinions on it since I rarely post it in. But, if you are gonna spam a non Witcher thread with posts about it I will slam it because the game is horrible. I've given my reasons many times. Do a search. \Now, you can keep whining about me, spam about Witcher, or we can get back to the actual topic. Your choice.

You make no sense. You bash me for bringing up Witcher when I wasn't the one who did so. Someone else did and I responded. You are not butthurt about Witcher being discussed. You are butthurt about me bashing it. If I said I loved it there would be no issue between us right now, right? Right. Just admit.

"By the same token, just because you don't like something doesn't mean that it's just flat out garbage. People like what they like, and nothing you say will change that. " No, duh. I like plenty of popular stuff. That isn't the point I made though. The point is I don't base what I like on what others do.My opinion is my own. "Basically what I'm saying is, Your opinion is insignificant and unneeded. Especially in a thread that's not even about CDProject or the Witcher series." \ L0LL0L0L0L I'm not the one who brought up Twitcher, right? Someone else did so I responded. Don't be so butthurt. I doubt you'd care if I was praising Twitcher. My opinion is as significant and needed as every other opinion in this thread so look into the mirror. Also, i apologize for hurting your boyfriend. My bad, Witcher, my bad.
