Era meltdown imminent

It's kinda sad how the same handful of people can argue for over 15 pages about the same topic using the same arguments over and over again

[simiansmarts]

Dozens of pages across 3+ threads analyzing why Supergirl flopped. 

Maybe it’s just a crappy movie? The sexism stuff falls flat on its face because just like The Marvels, men are the only ones who showed up to see it.

Actually, it's sexism plain and simple. Look at the facts:

Diversity demos are 40% Caucasian, 30% Hispanic and Latino, 17% Black, and 8% Asian American. Men over 25 led at 41%, women over 25 at 26%, men under 25 at 18%, and women under at 15%. It’s said you need three demos to become a hit, and clearly that under 25 Gen Z/Gen Alpha bunch are not showing up here.

Millenial white men are the only true allies. Era strong.

No wonder millennial white men have to pull double duty as women when so many of the actual women are TERF bitch chuds who don’t support female empowerment in theaters and would rather stay home and watch misogynistic trash like Love Island.

Maybe it's just me but the problem isn't that I prefer to game at a desk and a monitor, it's that I have a PC hooked up to the same TV as the PS5 and would rather play their games on the better hardware. Glad I have a PS5 though so I can still play their exclusives. Actually we have two of them because my wife bought one to play fortnite on, she was talking about selling it and I told her hell no that's our backup, those things are gonna be like $800 soon.

Time to divorce here, supporting that pedo supporter Tim Sweeney

Wow, talk about disregarding the agency of your wife. SHE bought it, SHE should be allowed to choose what SHE wants to do with it.

While my wording wasn't the best, and I could have expressed myself much better, I still stand by what I posted four years ago.

Also, to the people who completely dismissed and acted passive aggressive: You are not as clever as you think you are.

I graduated with a degree in Public Policy last year, and now I'm unemployed. So I think this is the perfect opportunity to let my rage out. Four years of full time employment with overtime hours while studying is pain and it fucking destroys you. For these past 4 years I've damaged my feet, I've damaged my back, I have to take ADHD meds now because of damaged caused by sleep issues and hyperactivty at work. Meds that the garbage country I live in refuses to put on the market because they would rather save money.
So what did I get from this incredible adventure? Nothing. A piece of shit paper that proudly reminds me how I got a degree in Public Policy that has no real value both from a technical or career point of view. GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT. You know what's funny about the entire thing? These four years at my Uni weren't only a complete waste of time, but also I had to endure right wingers lecturers who every course somehow found a way to tell the group that trans people are ill and Ukraine deserves to be bombed. No wonder so many in my group from maybe centrist went straight to being right wing. And no, don't answer that, it isn't funny it's fucking sad. You know why? Cuz we live in a world where we put people that don't care for higher education in these institutions because it's the only worth mentioning way to get a better opportunity in the job market.

This isn't STEM or a Medical degree, there's no point, value or justification for universities to waste your life in their shitty 4 year programs only for them to be completely worthless after.

Because I'm sure that there will be an American that shows up in this thread and yells, "TRADES, TRADES, TRADES."
FIRSTLY, a trade license means next to nothing in a lot of places in Europe and doesn't help you much to begin with (if you can even find one that isn't a fucking scam).
SECONDLY, a degree is king. There are people collecting trade certificates like white bread, and employers are fully aware of it.
THIRDLY, maybe just maybe high school should be structured better so it doesn't produce centrists and right-wingers who are then sent to universities in the hope that they might, if we're lucky, become liberals. Because I sure as hell can't find this army of leftists coming out of these higher education institutions.

Anyways, Have a nice day.

Turning Wonder Woman into a literal rapist while seemingly not even being aware of that goes a bit beyond just a "bad" movie.

I've only seen the first WW movie. What are they talking about?

Turning Wonder Woman into a literal rapist while seemingly not even being aware of that goes a bit beyond just a "bad" movie.

I've only seen the first WW movie. What are they talking about?

the second movie is about a magic wishing stone and wonder wammen says "I wish that world war 1 guy from the first movie hadn't died, it's been like a century and somehow I still haven't moved on"

and she gets her wish in the form of a completely random man turns into chris pine, but only the two of them can see him as chris pine, to everyone else he looks like random man, and random man still has his own life and apartment and possessions and everything, his consciousness is just totally sidelined

and then chris pine puts his cum inside wonder woman but actually in real life it's random man's cum

also throughout the movie they're obviously putting this random man's body in horrible danger throughout, even though to both of them it's chris pine, it's really not

at the end she renounces her wish and random man resurfaces, disoriented

Why would you get a degree in public policy if you weren't planning on working in local/federal government?  

I also have a "useless" degree (Communications) and my professional career has worked out well, but I had a plan for myself.

Humanities degree are useless, even teachers will tell you.

it's true, though at the same time no degree is useless, simply having a degree demonstrates that you were able to put the time in on "higher education," probably learned to work well in groups, shows a little initiative, etc.

I can't say whether most employers think that way in today's job market, but there was a time when that was the case, and anyone with a degree would be weighted a little higher above anyone without one

There is plenty of trash in the indie space. Let's not pretend all these games are equally worth players' time. 



Do good games get overlooked sometimes? Sure, but it might take a few months for WoM to build and sales to pick up. The top-tier indie games generally get noticed eventually. Maybe it's a small dedicated cult following instead of massively blowing up, but that's just how it works. This gets into the weird space of trying to decide what a game "deserves" for sales, which is just stupid.

There are so many high quality indies that just fall through the cracks.

I'm curious what he considers "high quality". A game can have a unique, appealing art style and not be fun to play. A game can have engaging gameplay but look like shit. A game can be free of bugs and well-made doesn't mean it "deserves" to be a hit. 

So many indie games are really uneven and inconsistent. When you're going up against a Silksong or Mina the Hollower in the indie space, yeah, the bar is fucking high. No shit.

"If the game is good, it will be successful" but they probably never tried 99% of games they could possibly love, because there's way too many games.

How much junk would I need to play through to find these diamonds? I've run into plenty of "You'll love this game if you enjoy X!" only to be presented with too much jank or uncooked mechanics. I'm not going to dedicate my life to making sure I play every indie game that might be somewhat decent, and neither should anyone else.

There's just way too much stuff releasing every day. When you have 10,000 games* release every year there just aren't enough people to pay attention to all of them. Even if the audience grows there's just so many other things that are vying for your attention.

* Doesn't apply to just games. Music and books are even more affected I'm sure.

As far as Deadpools brand of humor goes this is a pretty good joke its like those body swap modded cutscenes where you see how ridiculous devs make female characters move

Giving Deadpool a flat ass makes it a very cowardly joke.

No, you just want to goon.

Absolutely. If you're gonna commit then COMMIT.

I kinda would agree if this wouldn't be literally the pose of one already sexualized Anime character by Arcsys themselves, called Jack O'Valentine.

right, i just felt like it was a self aware joke, devs pointing out their own tropes.Doesn't mean its great but as a joke it works for the character of deadpool

I personally saw this particular situation as mocking the trope (now I know its their own trope) and was laughing at that. If you or anyone on this thread find it to be a part of the sexual harassment jokes I sincerely apologize, didn't want to offend. As I certainly feel that the sexual harassment jokes are stupid and are unacceptable.

I definitely read the Jack-O pose being Arc System Works making fun of themselves, but I'm not gonna blame anyone who has absolutely zero benefit of the doubt for game devs at this point in time. We've been burned so many times now.

"I'VE BEEN BURNED! THE PAIN!!!" 

I think my main issue with it is: where's the joke? If the joke is just "haha man do sexualized pose!" then I don't see it as a joke. An homage or reference, sure. Not a joke.

Add in some physical comedy like a locked spine that makes it a 'permanent' (for the round) stance change and I'd be much more inclined to think it's a joke. Like, I could even see a more violent game like MK having a fatality where someone is cut in half and their torso falls forward into that position for a bit, just enough to register as the pose, and then their legs and torso flop to the ground fully.

and i think asw is aware that jack-o's pose is ridiculous, regardless of gender, but that doesn't really mean it isn't sexist (i think it is, but it also... does make me laugh, in the same way jojo's bizarre adventure poses make me laugh)

real talk; this is the worst Wade's ass has looked in a game recently. Of all the games to have him do this pose, they give him basically no ass to do it lol
