How much ram and CPU does it take to run the emulator though? Good point - that's why I said "as much as I can figure that stuff out"!- [Merged] Please make a console version!
People from the future do. That's who knows what the future holds - people from the future. We must find these future people and beat the answers out of them! To arms men! TO ARMS!!!! Shut up or we'll break your two arms Curses, foiled again.- I'm a bit worried
Thats a 16 Bit system, the game only work on 32 bits or 64 Bit systems. So it'll totally work if he hooks up 3-4 Sega Genesises (Genesi?) together, right?- Can you respec?
I restart RPG games all the time anyhow, so for me its no more of a time commitment to restart because I played a wizard and decided to be a fighter than if I start as elf and decide halfway through the game I really would rather play a dwarf. But I admit that's a personal quirk. And personally I don't see any specific harm in a respec option; to me its going to depend rather heavily on the game. I just don't really see a large negative to restarting to create a new character and having no respec.- White People: What They Say in Public vs Behind Closed Doors

I was more thinking about what if the woman wants the abortion but the man doesn't. So putting a sense of aside the choice of having sex in the first place as a mutual choice, baring being able to remove the fetus and implant it (either into the man or an artificial external womb), wouldn't the 9 month physical commitment necessitate that the woman's position holds more weight than the man's at this time? (Admittedly, IMO, a lot of the problems with abortion aren't really related to abortion as much as no one likes the currently available alternatives).- White People: What They Say in Public vs Behind Closed Doors
If you didn't want your DNA used, why did you contribute it in the first place? * If she didn't want to use his genetic material, why did she accept the donation? * Seriously, y'all talk like that around May of every year you have to step over people ****ing in the streets to get to work because all the young women have went into heat and all the young men have lost their senses... *Obviously, this is for voluntary transactions only.- Journalism and bias in the gaming industry.
Wouldn't, logically, this argument be applied to all of video gaming? Its frivolous so why debate it? And sports? And TV? And Movies? Maybe I'm not explaining it well, but I see a game like Bayonetta as satire. Attacking Bayonetta for sexualization is like attacking Saint's Row for glorifying gang violence. It's a flawed premise. I dunno, depends on the context to me. If something starts as a satire of a thing, but the satire fails its just the thing. Therefore its open to criticism for being the thing (arguably you could criticize a satire of a thing for still pushing the thing even though its a satire). I don't necessarily agree with it (not having played Bayonetta I'm loathe to criticize or praise it, but Saints Row does a good job of satirizing the GTA style game in its sequels. I wouldn't say its immune to criticism either, though, just that I probably wouldn't agree with much of it). I thought your only trigger was Dwarves.

Guys I don't know if I should pledge towards this game but I'm starting to feel guilty that I haven't..what should I do? Only pledge towards it if you'd like it to be made. Otherwise don't.- Can you respec?
And people respec in real life all the time. Otherwise I wouldn't see the flood of 40-50 year olds leaving their careers to become nurses...- Journalism and bias in the gaming industry.
There is nothing inherently sexist about a person of any sex creating a character of any sex because the creation isn't what defines perception. If you'd rather use an alternate term like positive or negative gender representation or something similar more power to you; personally, I don't care to get in an argument on semantics.- I'm a bit worried
Looks like it meets the minimum requirements on STEAM (as much as I can figure that stuff out). Seems to me (if true) its just as legit to review a game using the minimum specs (albeit, I suppose if possible it'd be best to review the game on recommended specs and then have a sidebar about minimum spec performance).- Journalism and bias in the gaming industry.
To be fair, just because a woman designed something doesn't equate to that something automatically not being sexist (anymore than a man designing it means something is sexist). Scale can be seen as a contributing factor. A highly sexualized character who is but 1 of 1000 characters of that gender is different from 1 of 2. That doesn't make it *bad* in and of itself though surely, and ultimately, execution is what matters?

I've seen some women support it and some women not support it. I'm not sure "support" really matters since everyone views things subjectively anyhow. I would like to highlight how ridiculous this is. "I've seen some women support it and some women not support it." So you mean, just like men? Yes, I do. I think we need to be clear that race and gender (and even philosophical belief) does not make us monolithic group entities devoid of personal thought or taste. I find the idea that you have to agree to A or else you're not B to be a scary notion and unfortunately one that is being pushed all to often within these online debates*. *I'd argue that its also the chief reason people have an "us vs them" mentality with respect to these events and in particular (and worrying, IMO) are perfectly willing to not listen to anything the other side says.

I'm loathe to comment on the animation without any context to understand it. Its very easy to take a snip of something without context and then mentally create the context for it. Edit: Typo- Pickpocketing
I'm not sure it was a good concept. Which is (IMO) one of the problem with most games' approach to pick pocketing. The item really should be relatively small and in a pocket. You shouldn't be able to pickpocket a cloak, a sword, a shoe, etc. nor should you be able to plant items the size of, say, dynamite into a pocket. Problem is you'd have to actually have a way to design what is actually in the pockets and where the pockets are (IMO) for it to work right, and I don't see it worth it, really (unless you're creating a pickpocketing simulation game)- Journalism and bias in the gaming industry.

In some ways, I think large scale adoption of self-driving cars are inevitable (whether they're good or not is almost beside the point). Too many people will see the benefit and believe the risk is acceptable.- White People: What They Say in Public vs Behind Closed Doors
