It's like they aren't familiar with videogames.

^Video above retweeted by Steven Pinker (with 159K followers).

Looks like even the scumbag Stinker is trying to get some cheap publicity.

 

 

My sarcasm detector is broken. Care to elaborate?

MovieBob and FullMcIntosh talk about video games. And it's just coocoo land...

I think its funny that they want games to include reality in that even if you do everything right you still fail, the day after the study is released that says increased aggression after playing games is linked to frustration and feelings of incompetence from failing.So in essence, they are campaigning for the only negative effect of gaming.

An interview with an anonymous AAA-developer. Read and weep.

 

https://archive.today/5fHyd

 

 

 

We had an extremely talented concept artist who has worked with us for years, she would come up with awesome ideas and character concepts, she also happened to be gay. So when she would draw women she would do so with a slight masculine air to then, sometimes in revealing outfits and large breasts.

 

She no longer works for us, because her work has been deemed "high risk" at "encouraging negative feedback". I'd love to share her work with you but I just cannot be the cause of her being hounded by the media and the anti-GG crowd.

No one will be spared in the boobplate purge.

No sarcasm.

 

Stinker's a wanker.

 

 

Since you haven't provided any reason why i am going to assume that he doesn't return your calls, or didn't give a good enough tip.

 

No really, what is wrong/repugant in the videos of Pinker and Sommers?

I'd guess this is the closest thing to an explanation you'll get from Barothmuk:

 

"Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking.

 

I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic.

Haven't bothered with Sommers and don't really care to.

 

My issue with Stinker is that he's an historically and politically illiterate hack who basically parrots U.S propaganda, rejects any criticism of U.S imperialism, has deluded himself into thinking that "[democracies] tend to stay out of disputes across the board”, attributes the large death of American warring to the "fanaticism" of those resisting (how dare they!), divides rich and poor as "civilized and uncivilized", believes the upper classes "civilize" the lower classes and that when the lower classes rebel (the example he gives being the movements of the 1960s) this is symptomatic of the "de-civilizing" of society; he is an apologetic for the U.S prison complex and a bunch of other ****.

 

Since I recall you like Chomsky I'd recommend reading Edward S. Herman and David Peterson's review of "Better Angels". It's reasonably good.

This banning  hasn't been implemented  as part of Turkish law yet but this really seems like a bit of truly unnecessary legislation 

 

I wonder how they feel about GTAV ?

It seems to be focused on the influence on kids, so they probably don't have an issue with GTA.. But I'm guessing the issue  is because it's possible / easier to make seditious messages as part of the game world and Turkey is pretty anti 'antigovernment'.
