The state of Feminism, the good the bad
You keep saying this. Can you give me an example when feminists have advocated for a better life for men? In Sweden, three times as many men commit suicide than women. In Sweden, twice as many women graduate from a higher education compared to men (approximately, I forgot the exact number, but you get the picture). In Sweden, women gets much better grades in school than men. In Sweden, a man is four times more likely to be physically abused than a woman. In Sweden, three times more men are murdered each year than women. These facts are pretty much the same throughout every country in the western world, although the numbers vary slightly. How many times have you heard a feminist mention any of these things? At least in Sweden, feminists work to end violence against women (as an example). Specifically women, even though this problem is much, much bigger among men. Why is that if equality is what they seek? The thing is that they got gender roles working for them, after all is easy to believe that they're damsels in distress.

Third page and we are already discussing semantics, we must be running thin after all those unofficial feminism derails. Anyways, I for one have no problem with feminism being sexist or focusing just on one gender, is when they start focusing on my gender that I get chills. For a movement that is supposed to be about the betterment and empowerment of women there sure is a lot of talk about men, I guess every good story needs a villain.

Sasha Grey. Bit of background, she was a voice actor on Saints Rows the Third has a varied interest in different projects that range from the artistic to the educational. Yet she was first known for her pornographic work, let's just say that she could become the next mother Theresa and I probably wouldn't kiss her on the cheek without a Hazmat suit.- Writing in cRPG's -- a case study (Mass Effect)
You just did. Ken Levine at least is a very good writer of the video game class, but you do really have to compare like with like. He has played to his strengths from movie/ TV experience and writes straight linear stories, he doesn't have to weld multiple decisions into a coherent whole- and even with the linearity his story endings have tended to be somewhat underwhelming or off kilter, except maybe Thief. And derivative of one another too, of course. Bioware's only real problem with ME was the lack of a coherent plan, or not sticking to the plan. Plus, as I always say, ME2 did not do the set up job that was required and left far too much for ME3 to do, leading to the dei ex machina. Since that cat is out of the bag, can someone do an analysis of the TLoU? I haven't played it (probly never will) but i'm interested to hear opinions of whether if it is as good as they say or if it just like Bioshock Infinite (overhyped)- KaineParker's Hopefully Attractive Women Thread Episode V: A Striking Back

Mass Effect and BW RPGs in general suffer from both tonal and plot consistency, largely due to their attempt to mimic Josh Whedon team dynamics which are born out of character. The problems arise when they largely ignore their main plot in favor of creating "those" moments where their character shine. To follow with OP example, Mordin in ME3 was a good piece of writing because it was both in character, fitted the situation and moved the plot forward. It is very hard to keep consistency across a game story that's divided by bits of gameplay; one of the reasons why I herald Avellone as the best game writer is the he can do this, BW seems to just prefer a stylistic approach rather than an actual plotline. If something happens is for a maximized emotional response rather than service to the story, which when they neglect to establish or bend the plot to fit it in, it comes off as forced.- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Why couldn't he have announced his departure before ME3 was completed? Thanks for making a career move AFTER the starchild, Casey. Is his name in some way attached to the new ME project? Otherwise I believe that he was gently let go and just kept long enough to assist the new project manager in the transition. I mean, I doubt someone would leave a lead position on a major studio without a good reason.- Here is why in-game purchases = a disgrace to humanity
