To be pedantic, I'd say Trang Lanh is sexualized, but at such a low grade by video game standards it's practically negligible. She's definitely a femme fatale archetype, her clothing frames her and her moves/posing frame her in a certain way.
Again, I wouldn't call it egregious at all, it just might've been more interesting to lean away from a stereotype in my opinion, like possibly making her a character of indeterminate gender, or even male. But the way she actually is is far from a deal breaker and I'm definitely not going to excoriate From for something so relatively benign.

These guys genuinely hate characters that are visibly feminine because it triggers their dysphoria or some shit like that Quote:like possibly making her a character of indeterminate gender
They're unironically doing the Human Being thing from Community. They believe the sheer fact that you can tell that she is a woman and that she isn't ugly is problematic.

It looks pretty shit, especially those shots of cyberpunk the entire vibe of the game has been erased.
I guess if you want games that look like video games you'll have to stick to Switch 2.

Yes that seems to be him. His offense was that by revealing where the money really goes he outed the dev as trans Googled to find out more about this story and the journalist died in 2018 by suicide setting themselves on fire in a park
Since he's been unbanned, ClickyCarl's been pretty active in threads for the upcoming movie Primetime. Chris Hansen appears to be on the shitlist of a lot of REEE's finest and they're hoping the movie tears him apart. I wonder why they have it out for him...

Also, this tells me that Primetime reveals more of the truth than Hansen likes That's the thing. If this does truly reveal some verifiable shit, he is going to fully Streisand effect this by being so adamantly against it.

Wasn’t the journalist but the dev. It was Chloe Sagal.

Being fair, I totally forgot that some of the pedos he “caught” were released afterwards because they ignored the process to pull this stunts or argued about entrapment.  Some caught in the sting operations had their charges dropped but those were mostly the ones in the Murphy Texas investigations due to the district attorney offing himself and his family pursuing a lengthy legal battle. It was a total mess with the watchdog group refusing to cooperate with the DA's office of the county in providing evidence.
Nowadays Chris Hansen's investigations and the sting operations are so legally airtight that the conviction rate of predators caught is pretty high, their lives are over once they step foot in the sting house. One predator recently got life without parole from refusing a plea deal after being caught in a child sex trafficking sting operation

A lot of the guys who got away was because there were no charges filed I’m pretty sure. Either because they couldn’t prove it or the judge just dismissed it
So… it was totally useless?
How it wasn’t a grift?
Might have been a grift but it was great television

wait...
you don't mean the destructoid weirdo I quoted, but the person he outed?
the trans person I know of who grifted for surgery without telling anyone and then set themselves on fire in a park...is one of the suicides perpetually blamed fully on kiwi farms, even though in her own words at the time the problem was those directly around her who abandoned her and kicked her out of where she lived/was couch surfing (a melody shreds situation except chloe was a bit more productive)
bizarrely enough, most thoroughly documented by Destiny of all people
https://destinygg.substack.com/p/keffals-a-case-study-on-internet?open=false#%C2%A7chloe-sagal
Quote:Allistair Pinsof, a writer for Destructoid, originally wrote an article supporting Sagal’s IndieGoGo. After it was personally revealed to him that the fundraiser was a scam, he revealed as much on Twitter and was fired from Destructoid for “outing” Sagal as trans. Sagal would fight about the funds for some years afterwards, trying to claim that PayPal was scamming her, even reaching out to Brianna Wu in 2015 before being shot down for help. She would later complain on Facebook to Ahuviya Harel, a somewhat notable figure in the Gamergate era, that “the trans community…[turned] their back on [her].”
