Fighter Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 A few game creators need to put one of these in a game. Make it full of big boob vg bimbos. Watch the doublethink unfold. But but... mah objectification.

Amentep Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I'm dreaming, right? WSB TV printed (and broadcast) a retraction of the story after online gamers encouraged them to investigate the evidence provided by their source. http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/local-gamer-says-he-communicated-shooter-killed-jo/nnS4Z/ 5 I cannot - yet I must.

Fighter Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 They did indeed. I hope they also learn a lesson for the future.

aluminiumtrioxid Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 You guys ready for more Joyful Fun Overanalyzation With Your Host Joshintosh? Wow, that's super dumb. "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."
Volourn Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 That's Super McIntosh. He's the type of white male that actually makes me hate being a white male. I just hope not all white males are judged based on him. *shudder* DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
aluminiumtrioxid Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I can sort of see where he's coming from, but that sounds like overanalization, especially when the game's mechanics and narrative are empathically not about "being pushed too far/retaining humanity in the face of it", but simply about being a highly professional agent or a sloppy operative. Having to resort to violence is a failure state in these games. "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."
Amentep Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 I know of click-bait with news services. Is click-Tweet a thing? Because McIntosh's tweets always sound like things calculated to make people redistribute his tweets. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that?

BruceVC Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Guys now that I dont really follow this whole GG\anti-GG development anymore I have some new insights into the causes and motivations behind the social and psychological reasons behind GG\anti-GG that I doubt most of you will be aware of Funny enough I'm more critical of Anita and some of the subsequent events than ever before. But it will be a few paragraphs so I won't make the post unless someone asks "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

BruceVC Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 You're waiting to see how many people ask so you can figure how much money you might get if you set up a Patreon account from your supporters...? You funny...it probably seems like I just want to someone to say " please tell us something we dont know " and I need someone to almost want me to post But no...I post when I want and where I want as we all should. But this is different, it will be very enligthening to many people on this thread but its also complex as its a history of GG So I will post it if someone asks me ...I'm not that committed to make the post by myself "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Nonek Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 The queer masculinity of stealth games. In games, men's bodies often represent brute strength. Stealth games are the focal point for an alternative masculinity: sleek, illusory, sensitive, and self-reflective. http://boingboing.net/2015/09/07/the-queer-masculinity-of-steal.html Well looking at the epitome of stealth in PC games, the Thief Garret, I neither see illusory, sensitive or self reflective qualities. Sleek mayhap as a pre-requisite for his occupation, but he is ideally not seen enough to be illusory, he is perhaps one of the most insensitive and straightforward of protagonists, and the only thing he usually reflects on is how much he can earn from a given endeavour, and how much recreation and rent that can afford him. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
GhoulishVisage Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 You should really use an archive for those sorts of nonsense articles, Fighter.It's pretty easy. Just go to somewhere like https://archive.is/ and enter the url you want archived. Then you can show all your friends the sort of pseudo-intellectual nonsense people write without giving them clicks. When in doubt, blame the elves. I have always hated the word "censorship", I prefer seeing it as just removing content that isn't suitable or is considered offensive
GhoulishVisage Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Spasiba. There must be some kind of male choreography in place, some layout of steps I would have learned in childhood if I’d been raised a boy. As is, I have no idea how they’d like me to respond. All they want is to be men at me, and there’s some man thing they want in return. These people are really taking the whole Men are from Mars thing seriously, aren't they?They can't possibly just be some **** toughs looking to pick on someone or mug them? No these strange manbeings are like a group of aliens whose ways seem savage and barbaric and still rely on a barter system and whizzing on things to mark their territory.
