In your imagination, anything is possible!

[Tektonic]

who said romance was dead

[Potato]

Both women, both lesbians, both won't suck cock.

What could go wrong?

[Snoopy]

Jeff and Planet to go trans and hook up next please

[Straight Edge]

Fat4all’s dopamine receptors have to be worn to nubs if he’s jerking off as much as he claims.

[Besticus Maximus]

when they break up who gets to keep the gundamns

[Tektonic]

who gets to keep the stabbing mattress

[DavidCroquet]

Now that’s what I call strange bedfellows.

[Potato]

Fat will have them jammed up his poop chute

[JoeBoy101]

I try not to be this way but…

Imagine the smell!

[simiansmarts]

Fat4all’s dopamine receptors have to be worn to nubs if he’s jerking off as much as he claims.

He’s approaching 40 isn’t he? His libido has to be slowing down any day now which is fate of all these autogynephiliacs who jerk off all day in between their gaming sessions and call themselves women

[Steven Snell]

Both as many twists and turns as a 90s teen drama and as predictable as whodunnit in a Scooby Doo cartoon.

[Eric Cartman]

Slaanesh AND Nurgle, together at last

[Lonewulfeus]

But they’re both nurgle…

[Eric Cartman]

A reminder as to who this loser is:

As a kid, I was pushed left because of how censorious the right was, waving their fingers, don't use cuss words, this is too sexual. I'm like, "Yo, I want to be like the Democrats, they got girls sucking d--k in the Oval Office." They were cool as s--t. And now it's the opposite. The Republicans are getting pussy left and right, they're the ones who say crazy jokes.

(This is a 41-year-old adult, by the way.)

Christ, why do you have to overuse the :spiders emote so much?

What should a 41 year old man be doing instead of getting a presumably decent paycheck for a profile raising film cameo?

Go watch a childrens film at an 8am matinee, and then completely miss the fucking message that the average 10 year old comprehended in its entirety?

[Hap Shaughnessy]

How long until Shreds moves in with Fat4all?

A game developer is just a profession. You get fired if you're not needed anymore, simple as that. That's why I don't get why you are all surprised. It's not a secret that studios hired much more employees than they needed in covid. I think that some of you would want to live in some leftist utopia where people get paid even if they're not needed. You should realize that Microsoft is a private company and they hire who they want.

please I'd love to hear merger advocates takes on this one

where are they

They've all scurried away like the pathetic losers they are.

That Acquisition thread will go down as one of the biggest embarrassments in this site's history.

 User banned (3 days): Misrepresenting moderation

I recall commenting in the infamous thread against the acquisition for self-explanatory reasons....I got dozens of extremely hostile replies telling me it was a positive thing for the industry, that I was a console warrior, and so on. It almost makes me want to go back in that thread and find those comments, it's worth a "hall of fame" thread to remember.

Actually it's much worse, people got banned for questioning the acquisition and people were told they were console warring. Absolutely wild.

 User banned (1 week): Mod whining; misrepresenting moderation

2000 after the many yearly cullings already would be insane. It would be a clear sign theyre completely winding down outside of just being Activision Blizzard XP.

Actually it's much worse, people got banned for questioning the acquisition and people were told they were console warring. Absolutely wild.

Lets be completely honest with what happened because it happened again in a thread adjacent to this topic just last week. Warriors with caught-feels reported posts and moderators felt obliged to act on them rather than just ignore it for the usual nonsensical overreaction it is to report posts on here that aren't death threats and distrurbing behaviour.

Wat

if you were to place a bet at a bookmaker saying that a highly successful business would close, would you get a high payout or a low payout if you won that bet?

This thread has gone a little off the rails. If new news or rumors present themselves then feel free to create a new thread without the Metacommentary and antagonistic behavior.

 User banned (1 month): Creating a troll thread. Abusing threadmarks to be hostile towards other members. Account in junior phase.

Lately I have been reading more and more on ERA of the people who say that critic and user reviews have no influence over their gaming choices. Anybody who has spent any proper length of time in gaming knows that reviews play a pivotal role - User or Critic.

When Cyberpunk gets a 4/10 on PS4 - People take notice
When Elden Ring gets a 10/10 - People take notice

So the question is, why do you think people purposely lie about the fact that reviews have no impact on their gaming choices?

 User banned (2 weeks): Misrepresenting moderation, history of same exact behavior

Every time one of these threads pop up I have flashbacks of everyone cheering on the Activision merger.

People were openly hostile to anyone who said it was a bad idea.

People with sincere and logical reservations got banned for "console warrior" behavior.

Era is an enthusiast forum by every metric.

Analyzing whether the screen is good or bad compared to the completion and previous interations is factual and helpful analysis.

Posting responses like "it looks fine to me" and lamenting that people are negative is a reflection of that user feeling like the product they enjoy (which they should enjoy) is being attacked.

Am I missing something or is constantly commenting that it looks fine or that users are negative is borderline trolling? I'm genuinely confused. Can we not do factual analysis of a product and keep personal feelings out of it?

Some just like to be cucked by Nintendo. Who are we to judge?

[Boredfrom]

Okay, now I’m with ERA, your Supreme Court sucks.
