"this is literally 1984" says internet user who only knows about 1984 from other internet users who have also never read 1984

if i ever had godlike powers over the nature of animals i'd just make crabs smarter. like on par with crows or something. you'll walk out onto the pier at night and see a group of crabs working together to drag an unconscious man into the water. you can't help him now. he's gone.

ever wandered around in an open world video game and noticed there are no children? no elderly people? no fat people? no one using a wheelchair? no one with a guide dog? this is supposed to feel like a living world and there's so much of life that's just not there

dragon-in-a-fez

lots of people in the notes being like "open world games don't have kids/wheelchair users because if they did the players could kill them!" and I am unrolling my papyrus scroll with my curated reading list on the topic of "oppressed groups being imagined as symbols of innocence and vulnerability that must not be harmed in public instead of acknowledged as real people who are often suffering abuse in private, and why that is bad"

like yeah I'm aware that our culture would go collectively apeshit over kid NPCs being shot up in GTA. I'm also aware that that very same culture is broadly fine with parents beating their actual real life kids, and that most people, even most people who would never hit their own kids, think other real life kids getting hit is not their business to be enraged about. so maybe like. there's something weird going on there.

switch-up-snowfox

what culture broadly are you thinking of???

cookingwithroxy

Honestly, this is a position so stupid that I'm stuck thinking about the whole 'Do you ever think about how, in open world games, you only ever see 30 models of NPC's?' or 'Do you ever think about how, in an open world game, there will be more combat npc's than non-combat NPC's?'

The statement 'Considering the limited processing power available to computers, games prefer to place npc's the player is likely to interact with in the world, rather than ones they are less likely to interact with' would be all that one would ever need. And while you can couple that with 'People responded exceptionally badly to people making fun of/assaulting a Suffragette in RDR2' and extrapolate a limitation on being willing to put said NPC's in games, all you really have to do in this specific conversation is point out that child abuse is a startlingly rare event (at 7.7% per 100000 each year in the US) and realize that this is not so much a conversation about NPC's at all and more of a 'OP wants to have an argument and is looking for a proxy to justify whatever yelling they wish to do'.

This just plays into a variation on the Galbrush Paradox, they're left out of the games because of the initial reason stated above, players would kill and torture them, which is exactly what they would do to every other npc they have the ability to torture too.

Problem is that generally doesn't matter to the perpetually offended.

If you put a black, quadriplegic, toddler, with downs syndrome in a game and people have the ability to hit them with a baseball bat, people will do that and there will be a competition with folks trying to see who can launch the kid the furthest.

Because they can,

They'd do it with anything they had the ability to do it with

unhappy-opinions

Casual reminder that being able to murder and drag around the ragdoll of a stripper was used as a point for why video games are misogynistic and this point came from a person and video that was and continues to be widely praised by progressives.

If you're simultaneously complaining about lack of oppressed representation in video game and people treating being able to harm the oppressed in video games as inherently bad, then congrats, the call is probably coming from inside your own goddamn glass house. Go deal with that yourself and then maybe we can talk about the rest.

I still remember this line from that gastly (who for some reason was the only gastly that talked like a human in the entire series with no explanation):

“Oh, what do I look like, a vampire or something?”

I love you Sebago, I would die for you Sebago

Ok first I need everyone to know that the owner posted another picture of Sebago and like. She could easily be a moose for Halloween.

Also, the official Guinness World Record for tallest mule was a dude named Apollo, who was the same height but weighed in at 100lbs heavier.

Hey, take it from someone creeping towards 40:

Ignore the fun police.

If you like it, order your steak well done. Get your bagel toasted with jam and butter. Put ice in your scotch and ketchup on your hotdog. Get red wine with fish and white with steak. Who cares?

If you want to, listen to pop music. Watch blockbuster popcorn flicks. Read dime store novels. Enjoy them.

Dye your hair or cut it off. Paint your fingernails blue. Wear whatever the fuck you want on your own time (ie, when not at a job or school or whatever where you can get penalized for breaking rules) as long as you aren’t like welding or shoveling snow.

Anyone who tries to tell you you’re wrong? Say “okay” and go back to what you were doing. You’re not hurting them by enjoying yourself or having things the way you like them.

There are no caveats or addendums to this. No “but what about x?” Nah. You’re allowed the things you like. You don’t have to justify your taste or apologize for it if it’s not hurting anyone.

And likewise, let other people live their lives. We’re all dead in the long run, so tend your own garden before you become fertilizer in it.
