nigger

Still can't believe it was 10 years ago. With this episode, "Chad and Stacey", and "sex with men", I wonder if SVU isn't a comedy series disguised as a serious crime drama.

It's almost unreal the episode ended with the "terrorists" winning and then all of 2016 happened followed by total "chud" victory last year. What do you think is going on in Law & Order's writing room now?

>>419598 >What do you think is going on in Law & Order's writing room now? They take wolf dick while high on speed and weed. On a more serious note, I honestly think anyone would have done a better Intimidation Game script, but I'd suppose it would involve more research than just "rip from the headlines".

>>419598 GAME ON NYPD

>>419595 Good times

Butts

Y'all niggas still care about this?

>>419604 >wannabe southern "imma try to fit in" with the rednecks ignoring that the pattern's already been exposed >no hard r Fuck you nigger.

>>419605 Nigger I'm not southern nor am I trying to fit in. I am just genuinely curious.

>>419604 >Y'all

>>419607 >>419608 Is Y'all really considered super hickish? I in no way consider myself redneck/country and I say it all the time.

>>419609 Read, dumbass. Only three types of people use Y'all. Rednecks who don't care, niggers who equally don't care, and faggot megacity dwelling self-castration enthusiasts who use it fucking everywhere in an attempt to try to make themselves more appealing and fail miserably, sounding like this retard who spent thousands of dollars for coffee.

>>419609 Using it online is pretty faggy, its been common parlance for leftists online to sound more personable and "down to earth" for a while now.

>>419610 >>419611 > faggot megacity dwelling. Probably the closest description of me. However, I have no intent to sound any particular way to you faggots. I just talk this way. Granted, I live near a city full of blacks next to a bunch of rednecks, so maybe I picked it up via osmosis.

What are fun vidya related things to do? I play vidya gaems, should I make them too? What if I merely start recording footage of my games and upload them online, or make a hardware channel for obscure vidya solutions. Dunno, feel pretty bored.

>>419608 I am going to rape a cartoon horse >>419613 You gave yourself things to do, the only thing left to do is do them, anon! Just a little bit every day, and who knows, in a few years you may be the next hit indie dev with an overrated Earthbound ripoff, or a cool Twitch streamer with tons of loyal parasocially-obsessed fans. It's just up to you to put in the work!

>>419606 I'll be honest that I don't care anywhere near as much as I did in 2015 from a combination of disillusionment with the gaming general public, age and exhaustion, and a realization that the only reason I'm really still using this general is the fact 8moe at large physically doesn't have the population to support other boards like the heyday or even during the pre-(((Esther M. Aronowitz))) webring. But so long as there's a site named 8chan, I want to be there until the bitter end.

>>419631 I plan on doing this as long as I can, although I might have to retire at some point if a job demands it.

>>419635 that was the name that reported multiple website on the webring to their registrar/hosts for offensive content and got them deplatformed, whether the name was factual or not probably doesn't even matter but they effectively broke up the webring by attacking at the root of every website, and scared other imageboards away from the webring lest they suffer the same fate just for being associated with the uber spooky 8moe

>>419635 It was the period when Fatchan was alive after 8kun was revealed to be cucked. Fatchan was the last time I felt the genuine swell of camaderie akin to the original 8chan Gamergate exodus among the webring diaspora, before (((Esther))) killed it (then ZZZ's predecessor Zchan and a few other sites) and the shistorm of drama such as the HangingFlesh/Tengu feud and /v/alkanizing burned everyone out into bitter shut ins who don't care about anything but being left alone and paranoid of notoriety (something I even notice here with how some admins like Acid conduct themselves). Anon.cafe and most of the rest cutting ties with 8moe because Mark publicly confessed to talking to Journos for "Q: Into the Storm" for money (and was annoyingly vague about what he talked about, only insisting that it wasn't anything important he was right when we watched it (and got the "godfather of Gamergate" meme) but that's besides the point, it looked shady as hell didn't help.

>>419613 >I play vidya gaems, should I make them too? Only if you have that desire because you can lose motivation & get burnt out if you feel your gamedev plan isn't working or life gets you too busy with something else. >What if I merely start recording footage of my games and upload them online If you mean the game you made, then best of luck. >make a hardware channel for obscure vidya solutions Elaborate on obscure vidya solutions. Is it like finding the solution to a problem that you could only find on a very old reddit post, stack overflow post, or archive of someone's blog from years ago? If it is, then I support it because I can never be certain when reddit goes even further down the shitter & hides those posts behind a paywall or deletes them similar to how microsoft no longer offers update files for XP & 7. >Dunno, feel pretty bored Another suggestion you could do is record footage of games on screenscraper.fr that don't have any videos & upload them there along with their metadata. That way whenever an emulation frontend uses them to scrap game media, it'll have the available video & metadata info that one no longer needs to use gamefaqs, mobygames, or google.

So it turns out that translators have been raping our asshole for the past century, but we didn't know or care about it until they came for our big titted anime lolis. I picked up a book several months ago entitled Appreciations Of Japanese Culture by Donald Keene. The book was published in 1971, with my copy being a reprinting of it from a decade later. Anyways, the last three chapters of the book is Keene laying out the exact same arguments we hear localizers make every fucking time for why they should be allowed to butcher Japanese translations, such as: <Altering the entire meaning of sections because "Westerners are 'too stupid' or 'too ignorant' to understand" <Outright removing large portions of the work because it "doesn't matter" <It's the translators job to "fix" a work and "improve" it Pics the first of those three chapters. I was originally going to attempt to post the entire thing in text, but figured it was much more expedient to just take photos of the entire chapter and crop the images.

>>419644 Also, do not mistake this is just only the opinion and word "one guy". In fact Keene expressed that he sees himself as carrying on the work of Arthur Waley, a person he spends the next chapter expressing his utmost adoration for. For those who don't know, Waley made the first English translations of many Japanese and Chinese texts like The Tale of Genji and Journey to the West, and basically established how the Western public understands Japanese and Chinese culture to this day. And the way Waley did this was by adhering to the same practices many localizers are follow to this day, by cutting out entire portions of the story or changing story elements to suite Western tastes.

>>419644 >>419645 Here's a PDF of the book

>>419653 A gaggia classic e24, hand grinder, and $12/bag coffee subscription for a year costs $700, close to one tenth, while getting you most of the way there.

>>419679 Boomer is not a cuckchan word you retarded faggot.

>>419680 I think you're mistaken here. I mean general overuse of these terms outside of that shit heap and affected the rest of the normalfaggot sphere. It's easy to make that mistake considering how similar the words are. You are correct it's not exactly a cuckchan originated phrase but it's associated with them now, let it go.

So what would you guys buy with the proposed $5k muskbux?

>>419677 Please do kill yourself if you give a shit about this, yes.

>>419679 There are so many worse memes you could be getting autistically mad at instead

>>419681 >a word that predates the fucking internet and is used exclusively to refer to a generation of old people is a cuckchan word now because I say so You seem to be the one mistaken here retard. Just because niggercattle on cuckchan started spamming "oomer" shit does not mean the word boomer itself somehow becomes tainted. Boomer is a perfectly normal word to use and it doesn't somehow become less "cuckchan" when you say "baby boomer" instead. >>419684 "Boomer" is not a "meme", it's a word that has been used since the 60's. Getting upset by it isn't autism, it's incompetence and a complete lack of any cultural knowledge.

>>419685 >"Boomer" is not a "meme" Actually it is a meme, just not an internet meme.

>>419679 "Baby boomer" is a normalnigger term from the 1950's. You also probably think "waifu" came from cuckchan when the term predates cuckchan.

>>419687 Read. >>419681

>>419688 So, you were wrong.

>>1072888 silence, jewliano

>>419690 If you're only swapping the first syllable, it would just be jewciano. Oh no, wait…

>>1072892 Starting with (you)

>>419608 Damn!! Who’s this?!

>>419694 I can't believe you newfag niggers don't know your horses.

<Yo, boomer ain’t no cuckchan word, ya feel me, ya silly fool? <Japan 'bout to be the spot where the poop be risin', ya dig? <Abeg, if dis matter dey touch you, just waka go kill yourself, yes. <Ayo, what y’all gonna scoop up with them fresh $5k muskbux, fo' shizzle? This thread is off to a stellar start.

>>419682 2/3rds of an RTX 5090

>>419697 You mean ¼ of an RTX 5090, since that would literally just be more quantitative easing (helicopter money) and devalue every other dollar in existence.

>>419697 Better hope you pay more than your entitlements cost since neets don't get any. >>419698 Don't forget the 25% computer chip tariff.

>>419696 To be fair, nothing really happens for the first 125 posts

>>419687 You're a dumb gorilla nigger, normalfags have been using "boomer" to refer to people who were born in the 90's these days, and not people from the actual Baby Boomer generation.

>>419682 Explain further

>>419703 Musk proposed $5k to all taxpayers due to all the funds he's basically re-appropriated.

>>419704 I'll give it to my great-great-great-grandpa on his 160th birthday since Musk has now made his life hell

>>419704 It'd be cool if it was for the last 4 years, so we could get $20k instead, it is a start

>>419704 >Giving away money for good boy populism points instead of lowering the deficit and national debt

>>419707 It's even funnier because he's not even officially in charge of the departments he's running. So we have this billionaire polygamous kike essentially running this bizarre shadow government but it's cool because he's butthurt one of his 14 kids is a tranny degenerate and he only sometimes censors people for not support mass indian immigration.

>>419707 He should use it to fund good videogames instead

is hilarious that Yujiro only personality trait in current Baki is raping everything that moves, is like raping is now his only super power.

>>419710 Where ever he goes he must rape.

BioWare veteran calls out the 'cruelty' of fans celebrating layoffs: 'You are crossing a line, and you're probably attacking the wrong person anyway' https://www.pcgamer.com/games/mass-effect/bioware-veteran-calls-out-the-cruelty-of-fans-celebrating-layoffs-you-are-crossing-a-line-and-youre-probably-attacking-the-wrong-person-anyway/ https://archive.ph/kJi67 >Mark Darrah is a true BioWare veteran, having worked at the studio for 24 years before returning in a consultancy role to shepherd Dragon Age: The Veilguard over the finish line. Darrah is now freelance once more, and has been using some of his time to post YouTube videos about both the company's history and future in what he calls "an unprecedented time for BioWare." Darrah's latest video, however, has another subject: The more toxic elements of videogame fandom, which are much more of an issue for developers than some players might think. In a 2023 GDC survey of game developers, 91% of respondents said abuse from players was a problem and, if we're being honest, we've all seen some people go way OTT at developers online. The problem feels even more pronounced at the bigger-budget end of the industry, where certain folk seem to feel that, if they've paid their money, that entitles them to open season on the people who made it. >The video's called "Your $70 Doesn't Buy You Cruelty" (thanks, GR+) and sees Darrah address issues as diverse as players celebrating layoffs to the kind of persistent personal harassment and threats that can result in the courts having to get involved. The former producer makes clear he's not talking about folk criticising a game they've paid good money for or telling others they don't like it, which feels like it doesn't really need saying but I guess you have to be explicit about this stuff on the Internet. >Darrah's issue is fans feeling they have the right to target random developers who work at the studio behind a given title, even when "you don't know the circumstances that resulted in the thing that you're mad at." If you're mad at a Ubisoft game, says Darrah, "be mad at Ubisoft. Express your anger to Ubisoft or the studio that made the game. But you cross a line when you start being cruel about it, [you] don't need to go out of your way to cause harm to other people because of a videogame." >There's also the fact that, whatever someone dislikes about a game, pinning that on one individual or even a group of devs is just wild, and betrays a total ignorance of how these massive projects are brought-together. "All of this isn't to say that you aren't allowed to have your own opinions to not like the things you don't like," says Darrah. "It's specifically to point out that you being angry at a specific person, you attacking a specific person is often misdirected." Darrah even accepts that, as someone who's held an executive producer role on the likes of Anthem, he's a fairer target for some of this ire: Better for those in leadership roles to get an unpleasant complaint or message than some junior designer who probably had nothing to do with the decision-making that led to the issue. Which leads on to a point that, again, seems obvious but doesn't seem to be understood by many. >"Be aware that this stuff is carefully scrutinized," says Darrah, referring to complaints and feedback, even the screeching kind. "Not just by the social media teams, also by the teams themselves. Arguably, in a lot of cases, to too great of a degree. The team is listening, I would say, often too much to what you're yelling about and complaining about." Darrah has a particular and understandable bugbear about the kind of fans who grave-dance when layoffs are announced. "When you celebrate layoffs at a studio because the game that you don't like didn't do that well," says Darrah, "you're crossing a line into being cruel, and fundamentally, you should have more grace for other human beings." >That's probably what prompted Darrah to make the video in the first place. Following the lukewarm commercial reception of Dragon Age: the Veilguard, publisher EA laid-off a host of senior talent last month, including veterans of both the Dragon Age and Mass Effect series. Reports suggest that over half of the studio was either let go or re-assigned elsewhere within EA's studio structure, leaving a skeleton team working on the next Mass Effect. The layoffs at BioWare felt like EA was gutting a studio because it had no idea what to do with it: The boots on the ground paying the price for poor leadership, as is sadly the case in most industries. This is a view shared by some in games including Michael Douse, publishing director of Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios, who tore into EA for abandoning that "institutional knowledge" in favour of "cost cutting in the most brutal sense. It's always people lower down the food chain that suffer, when it's clearly strategy higher up the food chain that's causing the problem." >As Douse says: "On a pirate ship, they'd toss the captain overboard." "You are entitled to your opinion," ends Darrah. "You are entitled to be angry about a game that you bought—you paid good money for it. But try to remember that it's just a game. Even more importantly, when you are expressing your complaints, stay away from cruelty. Stay away from targeting individual people, stay away from trying to cause harm, stay away from celebrating harm done to actual human beings ... when you are personally attacking individual devs, you are crossing a line, and you're probably attacking the wrong person anyway." <"Your $70 Doesn't Buy You Cruelty" Yes, it literally does. I can say, feel, and do ANYTHING I want in response to what you create or don't create. Insert screaming, crying, and shitting wojack here, since that's the guy.

>>419710 I wonder how he would fare against Krauser-san.

>>419712 Eh, normally I could see the point about celebrating blanket layoffs being stupid (i.e. do you really trust pozzed corporations to actually lay off the people who were responsible for the pozz in the first place, along with the fact that higher authorities in the company never take accountability), but in this case it seems like the layoffs were generally justified. Plus, its hardly "cruel". People wanted good products out of you, you failed to deliver. Why should a company keep you if you fucked up? Something like what happened with Marvel Rivals laying off the people who made it successful is actually justified for people to complain that the higher ups fucked up, but here it just rings hollow. The reason people are celebrating layoffs is because you fags kept talking shit about gamers, insulting them, and ruining their hobby, you have nobody to blame but yourselves for this.

>>419712 Surely being a good goy and buying their games will improve the situation like he says.

>>419715 https://legiscan.com/IN/text/HB1008/id/3055015 We're at the very beginning of the "collapse of society and mass balkanization" era, and I don't like it.

>>419715 >>419716 I don't get it

>>419716 Freedom of association is an important right, it'll get hard before it gets better.

>>419712 I haven't forgotten the whole Mass Effect 3 shitstorm well over the decade has since passed and I still see it as the start of this company's decline. Get fucked for all the consumers you screwed over and all the shit game's you've put out since. Glad I never bought a single ubisoft title at any point.

>>419712 >if they've paid their money, that entitles them to open season on the people who made it. I don't buy games any more and feel absolutely entitled to not only trash this people but rejoice at their misfortune. These pieces of shit have collectively attacked the fanbase that built the industry, they have continually shat upon them and IP's alike and have destroyed the bond people had for characters and sagas. Suddenly we had to "get on with the times" and accept a myriad of anti consumer practices (like on disc dlc's, unfinished shit that would get "fixed" with patches) not to mention the influx politically motivated and subversive individuals into the industry, prompting changes in designs, stories, advertisement and development. This industry and the people working on it deserve the hate and then some. Fuck this faggots.

>>419717 Countryside counties want to become indiana and let chicago run itself.

>>419717 Half of Oregon has voted to join Idaho, and the southern half of Illinois has voted to leave Illinois (and Indiana has put a bill forward to approve of them joining Indiana).

>>419712 >industry spends the last decade & half shitting on gamers >"This game is not for you" >"Gamers are dead" >"Gamers don't have to be your audience" >"Diveristy is our strength" >"Gamers are entitled" >"Gamers are incels" >"Gamers are racist" >"Gamers are sexists" >"Gamers are homophobic" >rinse and repeat <whoa whoa whoa, you've crossed the line! <you're celebrating people losing their jobs! <this is all your fault! <you don't know what its like being in the industry! <tee hee hee, I'm not saying you're not allowed to have an opinion but... <this stuff is totally & carefully scrutinized guys! <you're not allowed to dislike the garbage even if you paid $70 for it And stupid faggots like him wonder why this keeps occuring

>>419721 >>419723 No, I mean I don't get what the issue is if people want to leave a state or redraw territory lines. I know people and California and New York want to seperate themselves from being latched to LA and NYC.

>>419716 Understandable. I don't like it much either. I think things have just become completely intractable between political left and the political right. For those not quite in either camp I would suggest bunkering down with close friends and family or possibly linking up with your local branch of /k/.

>>419720 >>419724 (checked) Yeah it is completely delusional to think people are going to let shit slide after years of watching devs rape their favorite games and constantly shit on fans like it was their problem. Most of them don't deserve an ounce of sympathy. >>419714 >its hardly "cruel". People wanted good products out of you, you failed to deliver Yeah I don't get why they think themselves immune from criticism and angry fans. Even if you didn't pay money for this ass cancer, you have all the right in the world to shit on these niggers if you want to.

>>419712 >>419714 >>419719 >>419720 >>419724 >>419727 The mindset with a lot of these fags is that their religion declares that it's suppose to be "their turn" and "their time", and you are suppose to lie down and take the abuse like tired dog. And that you're only "resisting" because you're "afraid" of "Progress(TM)".

>>419725 The problem is that if we've gotten to that point that means that things are coming undone.

>>419725 Read Title VII of the civil rights act of 1964 and reevaluate why you think they won't let people seceed.

>>419724 The last 15 years was the "fuck around" era of game gaming. Now all those developers are about to experience the "find out" era. And it couldn't happen to a better group of chaps.

>>419729 >that means that things are coming undone. How? States are allowed to seperate. That's how we got West Virginia. >>419730 >Title VII of the civil rights act of 1964 I did. So to what are you refering?

>>419732 It means that people are just done with each other and want to go their own separate ways. It very much means that some social threshold has been reached. >States are allowed to seperate. That's how we got West Virginia. Yeah and that happened during the Civil War.

>>419732 They want to codify equity into law, so you're not allowed to leave. Leaving at the state level makes public opinion sour on implementing it at the national level.

>>419733 >Yeah and that happened during the Civil War. There was also Maine and Massachusetts. >>419734 >They want to codify equity into law Where?

>>419728 I figure it's also a bit of creative inferiority complex, similar to modern comics writers: they don't want to be a forgettable cog that just maintains what's come before, they want to "make their mark" in a lasting manner and be remembered.

>>419736 >they don't want to be a forgettable cog that just maintains what's come before, they want to "make their mark" in a lasting manner and be remembered. The irony is that, if these people truly do want to leave their mark, then they absolutely shouldn't maintain what came before (For any purposes beyond just gaining skills) so that they can break out and do something new.

>>419720 >this people Learn English

>>419737 I'll give the leftist developers one thing: they ARE correct that (((companies))) are risk-averse kikes and that without shit like Canada's government funding, DEI (and its rebrands) or USAID to give financial incentive, they'd take the safe bet of Cawadooty XIV every time. Co-opting these franchises is often the closest most of them will ever get to making their dream games. Contrary to popular anon belief, going Indie is far from easy - even the Cuphead guys had to remortgage their house and make deals with Microsoft to get it out. Problem is, as the Indie sector has also proven, even those who do "break out" and are content being low-budget often have mediocre ideas, and they will happily use clique tactics to cut the knees of rivals and generally subvert the freedom from corps that being Indie should give to make their shit stand out. Always remember that this started with Gone Home and 5 Guys coverage.

>>419639 >First Oi, am I not allowed to make jokes anymore? Am I not allowed to use images relevant to what I'm talking about? Don't put my attempt at actual effortposting in the same trash bin as those facebook frogs. >>419725 >I don't get what the issue is if people want to leave a state or redraw territory lines Gerrymandering for starters.

>>419735 Most of (k) Burden of proof in disparate impact cases allows anyone to say they feel discriminated and places the burden of proof on the employer to prove there isn't a pattern of discrimination. Can't remember the study, but something like 80% of participants that were told a bruise would be drawn on their face (which was erased without them knowing) felt discriminated during a subsequent interview. Besides financial incentives, it's a law ripe for misuse by people not actually discriminated against. The only saving grace is the government sucking corporate cock for once and accepting literally any excuse that a person really wasn't qualified for most individual discrimination cases. >>419739 Most indie games are also kind of shit, people only mention the most notable ones but I don't think I'll ever buy another pokemon clone or standard rpgmaker game.

>>419742 >Most of (k) Burden of proof in disparate impact cases allows anyone to say they feel discriminated and places the burden of proof on the employer to prove there isn't a pattern of discrimination. You talking about the recent court cases where people prooved that companies discriminated against them because they are white?

>>419739 >Contrary to popular anon belief, going Indie is far from easy I don't think you understand. No one said that being independent is any "easier" than working for a company. You still have to deliver a product at the end of the day, with the additional rick of being independent meaning that you're entirely responsible for your game's financial outlook. However the process of being independent today is very different from how it was even 20 years ago. Because of the extensive toolkits included within engines like Unreal and the worldwide distribution of platforms like Steam, it's far easier and less risky to be come independent.

>>419716 YES. Soon the fighting men and women of Indiana will rise up and retake our ancestral lands. We will stage incursions into Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin to liberate our oppressed Hoosier bretheren.

>>419727 >Yeah I don't get why they think themselves immune from criticism and angry fans. It's pretty easy to understand, it's pure ego, they think themselves as super important people, they believe what they do is "making society better", they know what's the best, their ideas are the most advanced, their opinion the most valuable. >>419744 >Because of the extensive toolkits included within engines like Unreal and the worldwide distribution of platforms like Steam, it's far easier and less risky to be come independent. Speaking of this i think it's pure bullshit when they talk about how much AAA cost to make, i believe most of their budget they use don't even go in the game itself.

>>419742 >government sucking corporate cock for once >for once Lmao

>>419743 Still talking about Title VII, the law ehich that case is likely based on. The letter of the law has employers guilty until proven innocent. >>419744 It's still a prisoner's dilemma of sorts, there are too many indie games to care about.

>>419748 >there are too many indie games to care about. There are several ways to solve this problem: <Make games that belong to currently "niche" genres (Rhythm, Racing, 3D platforming, sports, etc.) Is anyone else tired of "every" game being a rogue-like, or a 2D sidescroller, or some "twist" on a classic game, or being "inspired" by [Insert classic series]? <Release your games on every platform possible (See "Marketplace" at: >>419642) Don't restrict yourself to "just" Steam and the Nintendo eShop, release on other places because you never know where you'll be successful. <Release as many games as you can in the least amount of time needed to develop and polish them Why are developers spending a minimum of three to four years developing a simple 2D platformer with a pixel-art style?

Hey Burgers, I hear KFC is moving its HQ from Kentucky to Texas. Is it going to be TFC -Texas Fried Chicken now? Will Colonel Sanders have to wear a cowboy hat?

>>419749 Regardless, most are unprofitable and would be even less so if left unpolished. For every Tokyo Xtreme Racer, there's a dozen or hundred games like SUSHI race with an estimated 180 to 1k sales by 3 owner estimator sites on SteamDB, or Parking Garage Rally Circuit with 15k-50k sales and a high review score.

>>419708 MAGA is a big ripoff. I'm so sick of the Trump shills. Yeah Democrats suck but Republicans are just the big business party. They just want to retreat into their gated communities and leave us to fend for ourselves against the niggers.

>>419752 >. They just want to retreat into their gated communities and leave us to fend for ourselves against the niggers. You just described the democratic party as it's always been.

>>419731 Indeed. Remember pic? It was before Covid, before BlackRock's DEI & ESG programs got (((noticed))), before Sweet Baby Inc.

Do you think niggerpilliano has a high enough IQ to even be considered human? Day in and day out performing the same rote actions instead of self-actualizing.

>>419759 Why wouldn't it just be ChatGPT-4 at this point? Bots are indistinguishable from human now, and this piece of shit doesn't even have to be trained to be.

>>419761 Why stop the bot and post in clusters?

>>419762 Keeps the appearance of being human. A 24/7/365 attack is extremely obvious and causes site ownership to take advanced measures to stop it. This way it appears to be human and "merely a nuisance." And look how fucking well that works, since it has been allowed to post forever for the last five goddamned years.

>>419712 >>419720 What are some common defenses for purchasing media that I already know despises me? "Don't knock it 'til you try it?" Supporting "artists," or humans over robots? It seems like some people have to buy it for reviewing or for that strange ""fear"" of missing out on sludge. I know that there's those that might've bought such games to own those haters, but that often fails in the longterm.

>>1073032 Archive?

>>419764 >What are some common defenses for purchasing media that I already know despises me? You mean "sunken cost fallacies"? Just don't buy it. They literally will not stop until you have been killed by them. They can't be reasoned with. They objectively aren't making art, so you can't "separate the art from the artist." Just cut them out of your life entirely. I stopped watching TV in 2008. Haven't seen any since. At all. I just don't care about it. Granted, I was "taken out of my element" when doing so. Maybe all you need is a two week "jolt" in your life to change your habits (since it has been shown doing that will "reset" the brain's reward mechanisms).

>>419772 I'm noticing a pattern that's going to be used to dismiss a lot of this USAID shit. Almost everything anons have been posting have been loans, not grants.

>>419789 In fairness, the keyword is "default". They want women to replace men as an archetype, but data generally implies that if given a choice, male wins out due to players wanting their PC to be their own gender (I recall there was statistics about this for Mass Effect).

>>419763 >it has been allowed to post forever for the last five goddamned years. Niggerpill's been a thing since late 2017 on old 8chan at the earliest to my recollection, it successfully destroyed /tech/ throughout 2018 in cooperation with the local (((mods))) who were the only ones of the major boards not to delete his posts/threads on sight. Wouldn't surprise me if those niggers also stole Terry's donations.

>>419790 It's kinda irrelevant if its loan or not since at the end of the day they are getting money, the entire loan thing is extremely shady to me.

>>419790 >>419793 And honestly, do you really believe they would ever repay a loan? https://archive.is/cnjVR

>>419795 So many options, so little difference.

>>419790 > I'm noticing a pattern that's going to be used to dismiss a lot of this USAID shit. Almost everything anons have been posting have been loans, not grants. The government can come in and say "you agreed to the loan, you cannot pay it off, now we are taking everything you own as collateral unless you do another favor for us."

>>419797 >>419794 >do you really believe they would ever repay a loan? Someone could also point out how all the companies receive money from the feds during Corona-chan were loan payouts, that these companies had to pay back unless they were "actively hiring". It's the biggest reason why there's been massive layoffs over the past couple years. Meaning that Cheetoh-Man and Musky Balls may start calling any day now to collect. >>419795 All I see in this image is the indication that games where you can "do anything" are a waste of time to develop as players would rather play games with linearly constructed narratives and gameplay.

>>419798 >All I see in this image is the indication that games where you can "do anything" are a waste of time to develop as players would rather play games with linearly constructed narratives and gameplay. And the choices that are possible are left to a minimum. That's not entirely true, otherwise games like Baldur's Gay or Disco Elysium wouldn't have sold so well.

>>419798 >rather play games with linearly constructed narratives and gameplay Like singleplayer sony games?

>>419798 I think its more that people are hesitant to play "evil" characters (even though renegade isn't evil but whatever).

>>419801 I mean Renegade is less "evil" and more "asshole" most of the time.

>>419800 Those are movies, with ZERO exxageration. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, modern "cinematic" narrative games have less interactivity and less gameplay then the FMV "fad" from the early-90's that people like to joke about today as being "so bad that it's good". >>419801 >>419802 It could also be because of the context of the game. Mass Effect is a RPG were you're trying to get several differing races to all unite for the purposes of fighitng a universal threat. So of course players are going to take the more diplomatic character type than the jackass character type, at least for their first playthrough.

>>419803 >It could also be because of the context of the game. It's the context of Bioware's shitty dialogue wheel not giving any information about what your character is actually about to say. Renegade options range from perfectly logical to the most retarded shit imaginable and have zero indication on which they're going to be. It's the reason one of the most used mods for FO4 is one that removes the shitty dialogue wheel and brings back the actual text for what you're character is going to say or do rather than gambling and feeling like you have no control over your own actions in an RPG.

>>419803 But movies have the most linear gameplay and narratives possible.

>>419788 >Refused to reveal his team mates had raped a minor >So he would have leverage after quitting the team >A mass shooter was his biggest fan

>>419806 >>419807 Reminder: Mercedes Carrera is still in jail (since 2019) waiting for her trial date due to "Covid delays" after being accused by her ultra-orthodox Christian ex-husband who was viciously fighting with her for custody of their daughter. After her arrest, he took custody. After 5 years in prison, no one yet knows if she's guilrty or innocent.

>>419808 What was she accused of? It's extremely doubtful that a non-violent offender, particularly a woman, would sit in jail waiting for a trial for 6 years straight. Also you used the words jail and prison interchangeably, when they are very different things in this context. I don't believe you can be held in prison without being found guilty of a crime. Jail is where people are held awaiting their sentences.

>>419809 The charges against her are fabricated. She was jailed for being pro gamergate.

>>419810 So are you going to tell me what her charges are or just keeping dancing around giving any actual information?

>>419810 >she was jailed for being pro-GG Anon, 2019 was years after GG's biggest public relevance. This was a case in a California court, you really expect them to be biased in favor of a single Christian father over a porn star mother? You also need probable cause for an arrest to occur. Just because someone supported >our side on an issue once (and iirc she's one of those "FUCK DRUMPF" types anyways) doesn't automatically mean she's a saint who can do no wrong. Not saying she's guilty mind you, and it's clearly wrong that the state has delayed her trial as long as it has. I would not be too surprised if she was guilty though. Conviction rates are high for a reason.

>>419809 something about drugs/weapons in front of a minor i think? Also, nobody is adressing that Memeteor anon actually summoned the memeteor (well, somewhere in 2032)

Barbara Broccoli hands over the creative rights for the James Bond franchise to Amazon Prime Studios and their executive Amanda Baker-Lane >After 61 years of iron-fisted creative control over cinema’s most iconic spy franchise, the Broccoli family is stepping back from James Bond, handing the creative reins to Amazon Studios while maintaining co-ownership through a newly formed joint venture. The move brings to an end one of Hollywood’s longest-running family creative dynasties and gives Amazon something money alone couldn’t buy: the power to reinvent Ian Fleming’s spy for the streaming era. >The shift represents the final piece of Amazon’s $8.45 billion MGM acquisition puzzle – and a coup for Amazon MGM studio chief Jennifer Salke and especially film head Courtenay Valenti. One media outlet reported that Amazon paid $1 billion to get partial ownership of the Bond franchise in the joint venture agreement. Amazon paid $250 million for the rights J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings” in 2017 and another $750 million to fund production, for a total commitment of $1 billion. The deal came about despite reported tension between Amazon Studios/MGM chief Jennifer Salke and Broccoli. As recently as December, The Wall Street Journal reported that the franchise was in a “stalemate,” noting: “Broccoli was irked in one early meeting when Salke referred to James Bond by a dreaded word: “content.” Using such a sterile term, one friend reflected, was like a “death knell” to Broccoli.” >While the 2022 MGM acquisition gave Amazon the studio behind Bond, creative control remained firmly in the grip of Wilson, 83, and half-sister Barbara Broccoli, 64, who notoriously rejected previous suitors’ attempts to expand the franchise into television series or spin-offs. Now, as Amazon MGM Studios prepares to launch its own international distribution arm and take center stage at next month’s CinemaCon, the streamer has suddenly transformed itself into a traditional studio powerhouse with Hollywood’s most iconic spy in its arsenal. https://archive.is/EhCSA Bond 26 can now resume production after 4 years in development hell, picking up where No Time to Die left off in 2021 with Lashana Lynch as the new 007.

>>419824 SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEET

>>419824 The names Bond, Bail Bond.

>>1073197 >not a single source or even a shitty screencap of a twitter post

>>419808 The more I look into this case, the certain jail she was sent too (which is known to be massively corrupt) and see some of the charges getting dropped I'm going with that she is "innocent", or at the very least, the charges are vastly overblown. And I'm not saying this due to GamerGate bias, for a long time i actually believed she was guilty due to being a degenerate pornstar (which comes with the territory of abuse) and I don't believe she was a great mother or anything due to her profession, but the allegations levied against her and circumstances have grown weaker and weaker over time.

As a surprise to nobody. https://archive.ph/jS1rW

>>419835 I completely ignore renegade/paragon and just choose whatever I want and it works fine in Mass Effect as long as you go infiltrator/agent, and even then there was only a single instance where I needed to be specced into agent in ME2 in order to have enough charisma to choose between morinth and samara. I'm not sure what game or system that image is referencing, if any at all. Most games are fine with you being neutral and the only downside is that you occasionally miss out on some unique visual flair. Fable 2 probably has the most robust system in that regard, and I don't think any game has come close since then. Though these days people would probably get butthurt about their characters hair color changing based on how many prostitutes they fuck.

>>419833 >t. Rindberg Can we tell BOTH the Jews and the Arabs to fuck off already and go deal with their own shit without involving any other groups of people at all?

>>419837 No because oil <But we have oil here! Yeah, if you dig up and destroy the environment, and not in the feelsy bleeding heart leftist way, but in the "wrecking our ecosystem and turning our backyard into China" way. <So we should just do it cleanly, unlike chinks The powers that be find that too expensive, and not profitable enough, just like nuclear power.

Sure is organic posting right now.

>>419838 >Yeah, if you dig up and destroy the environment So let's have the destroy the environment of some far off country? Also, also oil tech has progressed to the point that it's actually more dangerous for the environment to keep oils wells tapped and sealed than it is to drill them. If you're going to bitch about the "flamable well water", that has to do with gas and other chemicals in the ground as it even happens in areas that have never had a history of being drilled for oil. >The powers that be find that too expensive That has nothing to do with it. Drilling in the Middle East makes us dependent upon the Middle East. It's the same reason why nuclear is constantly torn down, because it takes away control from other countries. Independent nations that can take care of themselves completely opposes the Socialist concept of global equity.

>>419712 >>419724 I'm really sick of centrists and I understand why there has been a huge influx of hating on them since Trump won again. https://archive.ph/Mh8mt

>>419712 These "people" are all too eager to clutch their pearls when one of their own gets attacked, like that bitch from Home Depot who lost her job because she posted on facebook how she wishes Trump didn't survive that assassination attempt. Then all the faggot nigger lovers came out of the woodwork to defend her, even John Fucking Carmack did. Where was that faggot when people on the right were getting cancelled for supporting gamergate? Where was that faggot when other right-wing individuals or even right-of-center individuals were getting harassed and doxxed for their political opinions? >>419829

>>419841 >I don't care if a game goes against what you believe. It's never those people making those decisions who get the boot. Yes, it is. It's just not ALL of the people who made those decisions.

>>419842 This is why I refuse to give a single once of sympathy. I'm also super sick of centrists who all of a sudden, are trying to say everyone needs to settle down. When they spend ten fucking years, doing fuck all when the left was in major power.

>>419844 It doesn't even have anything to do with centrism or not. It's always funny when people you don't like fail. It's like the most innocuous response to something ever and is hardly provocative at all. It's just generic pearl clutching from a literal who on twitter that isn't even worth talking about.

This is the future you chose.

>>419824 What's is James Bond meant to be in this era anyway? The British empire has collapsed, England is now one of the USA's bitches and things are goint to continue to decay as time goes on. So what is Bond's role in current year +10? Hunting down random bongs for being insulting on social media or carrying a nail file in public? The only Bond movie I'd want to see is one where he's depicted as an eighty or ninety year old man questioning what the point of his entire life was after getting beaten and mugged for his pension money by a bunch of teenagers in a nation he can't even recognize anymore.

>>419861 >The only Bond movie I'd want to see is one where he's depicted as an eighty or ninety year old man questioning what the point of his entire life was after getting beaten and mugged for his pension money by a bunch of teenagers in a nation he can't even recognize anymore. Last I heard, that was the plot of No Time to Die, except with him giving up the 007 title to some woman ala the recent Indiana Jones having some woman steal Indy's name.

>>419861 He's meant to be the same thing he always was: a smart, clever guy, dealing with rich, powerful villains and their absurd, generally world-shaking plans by using his wits, his fighting prowess, a variety of gadgets which are chekhov's guns as much as anything, and occasionally his charm to seduce women and maybe fuck them afterwards. I'm not a fan of James Bond and the only movie i think i've actually watched is Goldeneye after i played the N64 game a shitload, but i'm fairly sure the movies have always been absurd bullshit, it's just people are less likely to insult specific nations now, probably because distribution has been made much easier nowadays and maybe they just have less patriotism as a general thing.

>>419824 Broccoli?

>>419863 I mean, Goldfinger had Bond save the Americans while working with the CIA, pretty sure that's every time Bond interacts with the Yanks.

>>419863 >but i'm fairly sure the movies have always been absurd bullshit The ones starring Daniel Craig are more serious and less campy compared to the previous Bond films. this is one of the reasons why the Kingsman movies were made, as a way to reclaim the most silly elements that modern bond movies lost (Obama's head explodes in the first movie for example) unfortunate, that entire franchise is dead because only the first movie is good and the rest are shit.

>>419875 The second one had the good guy be the bad guy. There was a third one?

>>419866 I particularly loved the scene where he violently murders all those racist white people in a church, who was it that directed that again?

>>419876 >There was a third one? Yes, it was a prequel staring Ralph Fiennes and about how the Kingsman were established during WWI.

Youtube is now outright blocking all Mullvad IP's from watching videos over a front-end.

>>419866 I can't stand the Craig movies, they tried to emulate Borne, but really didn't succeed as the elements that make a Bond movie Bond don't work in a realistic setting like Bourne. I know I'm in the minority as I love the Connery movies, but my favorites will always be the Moore movies. Give me fucking Moonraker over any of the Craig dreck any day, they may be ridiculous and silly but they are fun, full of charm, and are unapologetic about what they are.

>>419880 >I know I'm in the minority as I love the Connery movies, but my favorites will always be the Moore movies. Give me fucking Moonraker over any of the Craig dreck any day, they may be ridiculous and silly but they are fun, full of charm, and are unapologetic about what they are. Even the Dalton movies?

>>419879 Why are you still using JewTube in the first place?

>>419880 A View to a Kill best opening.

>>419882 Algo.

>>419883 DANCE INTO THE FIRE THAT FATAL KISS IS ALL WE NEEEEEEED

>>419881 I actually really like the both Dalton movies and in particular love The Living Daylights, and probably rate it about the same as Goldeneye which I also consider great. But my favorite Bond will always be Moore, in addition to what I said about his movies, there's also the fact the I find the time period of when they were filmed, namely the 70's through the early 80's to be the most comfy. My personal rating of the Bonds is probably Moore>Connery>Dalton/Lazenby>Brosnan>>>>Craig And I actually do like Brosnan more than you would think from my rating of him, I just think the writing in his movies after Goldeneye was a huge letdown. >>419883 >A View to a Kill best opening. A View to a Kill is another banger, Walken playing a nazi test tube baby ex kgb psycho is perfect. Plus Duran Duran. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp4CR2HcHLQ Pure 80's cheese and I love it.

>>419886 >And I actually do like Brosnan more than you would think from my rating of him, I just think the writing in his movies after Goldeneye was a huge letdown. A coincidence considering albert broccoli was a consultant producer for Goldeneye & it was his last movie project before he died in 1996 & barbara fully took over before now selling it to amazon. If you compare the visuals of Goldeneye's opening title to its successors, the newer movies feel less risque.

>>419886 >And I actually do like Brosnan more than you would think from my rating of him, I just think the writing in his movies after Goldeneye was a huge letdown. What about the video games: >>1073329

>>419863 "I've only watched one movie in the Bond franchise but I think all the movies are shit". I'm not expecting you to talk.

>>419892 >"i think all the movies are shit" citation needed

I feel like I'm the only one that preferred Brosnan 007 just because I felt he fit the character and all the videos games i played with him on the cover. When i heard Craig took over i decided to not watch a 007 movie ever again.

>>419893 It's what you literally. Fucking. Wrote. You brain dead fucking cock sucking cum guzzler. "the only movie i think i've actually watched is Goldeneye".

>>419895 But that's not the part i asked for a citation on, now is it, you illiterate nigger?

>>419894 Hi Pierce

>>419897 And am i wrong? Motherfucker gets lowered into a pool with sharks, nearly bisected with a laser, and fought in space with rayguns. There's always been elements of ridiculous horseshit in it. You try killing someone with a bladehat like fucking kung lao.

>>419894 Brosnan's Bond was fun.

>>419894 PS2 Nightfire was the most entertaining 007 game I've played and that's what made me like him too.

>>419894 You're not the only one. He fit the character too well, it affected his career for long, long time.

>>419902 I didn't really have friends as a kid, but I had TWINE, which had bots. That multiplayer was fun. Years later, when I did, we managed to play Nightfire's multiplayer mode. It had some interesting choices, like the remote mini helicopter (drones weren't conceivable as a concept yet).

>>419894 Connery and Brosnan were the best Bonds

>>419894 >>419905 Brosnan was Bond when I was a kid and is who I think of when I think of James Bond. Connery is basically the classic. I also just liked Connery in general. Moore gets flak for the camp and I understand that, but his movies kind of set the tone for baseline Bond and I still like him and most of his movies. Dalton was proto Craig, being edgier and his movies less "Bond-like." I still like Dalton as an actor though. Lazenby was weird. I never jived with OHMSS but some people like that one.

>>419906 >Connery is basically the classic Nah, that's Moore

>>419897 "Shit" and "absurd bullshit" are very different standards of content, anon. Leslie Nielsen comedies are absurd bullshit, but I wouldn't characterize "Airplane!" or the "Naked Gun" series as being shit.

>>419598 Total gamer victory

>>419879 Works for me on inv.nadeko.net just fine. >>419866 I really like the action cinematography for Kingsman, you can tell what's going on in fight scenes without much chaos or confusion, and the action is exaggerated enough to be visually satisfying, something unique it does compared to most action movies I've found. >>419905 >>419894 >>419902 Impeccable taste

>>419911 When will people learn that foreign funding is a monkey's paw at best in 99% of circumstances? Here's hoping this at least forces some introspection out of these retards, assuming they survive the blows that were dealt as a result of this.

>>419909 >>419598

>>419912 I don't have much hopes for them learning, especially if they go to "consultants" and shit like that to get exterior fundings, less control of their stuff and bloated employees. I will say it again i bet they don't even use most of the game funding on the game itself

>>419894 He fit the role better, unfortunately Casino Royale was better than any 007 with Brosnan.

>>419915 The Daniel Craig era was the time when studios were simultaneously jumping on the bandwagon of "totally grounded, realistic, gritty reboots" of their franchises. So while there were still Hollywoodisms in Casino Royale (surviving a 30 foot drop from a crane onto a construction site without so much as twisting an ankle… also BOND SMASH as he Kool-Aid Man's his way through a wall), it's far, far less "I WILL MAKE ALL FOOD PLANTS AND LIVESTOCK INFERTILE!" or "SPACE LASERS!" or "I WILL GROW A MASTER RACE AND KILL OFF EVERYONE ELSE!" CraigBond's line dealt with real-world potentialities of the contemporary environment. At least, the ones the media has been told by governments are "real problems." Things like government mass surveillance, "water wars," funding random African coups, etc. And it all comes together under a super secret organization that… they clearly didn't have planned out from the start because Bond goes through multiple new girls every film so you can't believe he has any real emotional attachment to the last one with whom he had his daughter. Now, if they had actually planned the damn thing to be a single, coherent story from the start, it would have been a far, far better reboot.
