This isn't saying racism doesn't exist, it's questioning the details of your narrative.

Loving the temporary Zeo face turn; caping for the First Nations movie Avatar of all things too.

Hoping Basalt doesnt try to do an Elliot Rogers before offing himself. There's been a lack of, "What games do you like to play, friend?" type posts when someone is clearing showing suicidal ideation seeing that anyone with empathy and actual social skills have been permed or have long since ditched the forum.

Finally, im surprised on Era there hasn't been a rationalization of the reception of Prime 4 as a sexist and/or Gamergate thing.

Man I was sexually entranced by Varang from the beginning… 😥

She definitely set a fire.... in my loins.

Sorry Greeks but I'm going to culturally appropriate a Souvlaki for lunch today. Please take up any issues with this with the Lebanese guy who runs the shop.

He got free tickets so he can report on just how badly they got the indigenous representation in the movie, chudlord

Pretty sure he learnt that excuse from Kyuuji's "reporting" of CyberPunk 2077's alleged transphobia

My fucking god. So worth the wait to see it in IMAX. Loved it, ate it up. It had the highest highs so far for me, and a number of emotional moments. Varang was mesmerising as well, such a great villain. I did have my worries but thankfully Neytiri lived, praise be.

Not his fault, you cannot control who your ancestors are.

Sad to hear but he's not responsible for what his family did

I've never understood white folks' concerns with making sure their ancestors were good people when, considering the history of European colonialism and conquest, there's a better-than-average chance they weren't. That really ain't the problem all things considered.

Fuck Insomniac. Fuck Sony for allowing this instead of hiring human artists. Fuck Disney for not taking the IP away from Sony. And fuck Valve for not labeling this game on Steam.

The Board of Directors of M.O.B.A. Network Initiates a Review of Strategic Alternatives
22 dec. 2025 11:30:00
Regulatory

The Board of Directors of M.O.B.A. Network AB has initiated a strategic review to evaluate strategic alternatives aimed at enhancing shareholder value and ensuring the company’s portfolio is appropriately aligned with its operational, financial, and strategic priorities.

The strategic review will assess opportunities to optimize the company’s portfolio and capital allocation, with a focus on directing resources toward assets with the strongest long-term return potential, as well as potential actions to strengthen the company’s financial position, including portfolio simplification and possible asset divestments.

During the strategic review, M.O.B.A. Network’s operations and overall strategy remain unchanged, and the company continues to execute on its business plan.

There can be no assurance that the strategic review will result in any specific transaction or outcome. No updates will be provided unless further disclosure is deemed appropriate.

As part of this process, the Board is closely overseeing the company’s cost structure, and as a result M.O.B.A. Network AB’s shares will no longer be available for trading on the OTCQX Market as of January 1, 2026.

It’s only down 97% yrs, what’s the rush?

Markets open for 3 days before Jan 1st, will it hit a penny?

[HaughtyFrank]

So much for our hostile takeover plans.

How about a friendly takeover 

[benji]

It’s only down 97% yrs, what’s the rush?

Markets open for 3 days before Jan 1st, will it hit a penny?

By doing it voluntarily they avoid running into the "penny stock" regulations that will get them delisted or having to open themselves up to evaluation/a sponsor to stay on the  market: https://www.otcmarkets.com/files/OTCQX_Rules_for_US_Companies.pdf

There's a bunch of complications but more or less your stock can't go below $1 a share for 90 days. Their stock has been worthless forever (https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/MOBNF/overview) but somebody recently just dumped all the holdings to totally crater the price:


They dumped an equal amount the day before this announcement, it has to be someone involved in the company.

Yeah, everyone should be happy with these box office results.

Avatar was the definition of mid but it's a good thing that it's doing as well as it is. The box office needs big moments like this.

Kyuji ate up the last avatar movie this is no shock, probably sit there in the face of all the shit saying how they’ve seen it 8 times whilst ignoring everything, just an absolute dick

If I read this correctly they are at about 2c a share and they have around 1.4M shares. So you could buy out all existing shares for about 28K?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-kind-of-just-despise-gamer-elitism.1393243/

I hate elitism and snobbery, simple as, whether it's wealth elitism, class elitism etc. So it shouldn't be that much of a surprise that I don't like gamer elitism much and my tolerance for it has grown shorter and shorter over the years. Whether it's genre elitism in general, elitism against people with "lesser" computers, elitism again "casuals", elitism against people who play mobile games, console wars nonsense, Console vs PC nonsense or the many many MANY fan warring nonsense I've seen over the years, I have very little time for it.

First of all, it just makes gaming discussion more toxic then it needs to be (and it can already be quite toxic), often creating an "us vs them" mentality that is utterly miserable to try to discuss around because people online will try to place you one group regardless of you feel about it (and the worse is if you so-so or in the middle opinion of a subject). So much of this feels like the result of people online treating everything under sports team mentality (which I am also just sick of) and often turn every discussion into right vs wrong, trying to prove the other "side" wrong with gotchas to prove themselves "Objectively" right over some of the most silliest of things (and no, I'm not talking about pushing back against bigots and hate, that IS something that should always be called out and pushed back). Nuisance discussion gets harder and harder to impossible; and things feel like they become screaming matches and people being passive aggressive with each other (which I'll fully admit I'm guilty of as well).

And so often, it feels like these things often come across as one sided, online people shouting at people who don't care and trying to provoke them into reacting to feel superior to themselves; just angry that game X and game Y is more popular then Game Z and feel the need to demean those who like X and Y; or upset and holding grudges against people for having the gall to disagree with them. Hell that can be used to describe so much of nerd elitism in general.

To be blunt, most gamer elitism to me is just insecurities, a need to feel superior compared to others. Simply put, so much of gamer elitism just feels like an excuse to exclude people, to try to push people and opinions out they don't like, to make an excuse to dismiss criticism or differing opinions on their favourite games. This is why I roll my eyes when I see gamers talk about "the casuals" because it's just elitism and ego and just fucking arbitrary… And misogynistic and homophobic.

Yeah let's just slam into the big Elephant in the room, it's hard not to notice throughout the decades gamer elitism, hell not even that, nerd elitism is very often slanted against women and LGBTQ+ people (and so often by white straight men), that hobbies and genre more popular with women and LGBTQ+ people, whether shipping, fanfics, social games, simulation games etc etc will so often be automatically considered "casual" genres, lesser or more mockery worthy, more worthy of being talked down to. Elitism to exclude people not deemed worthy to be "hardcore" enough to be "real gamers" because they don't want to share the space with us, don't want to acknowledge they aren't special and we've always been around. You see this with anime discussion, you see this with nerdy movie discussion etc etc.

Same with disabled people, it's hard not to notice so often when I see "hardcore" gamer dismiss accessibility options in gaming (and no I'm not talking about easy modes, don't fucking derail this thread) as "AAA focused group nonsense" or "Hindrances to REAL game development, freedom and creativity"; I simply cannot hear in my head "I feel superior to you for things you can't control or help! I don't want you to enjoy MY games!" that game developers don't really and shouldn't care about issues that don't affect "real" gamers, it feels incredibly othering and exclusionary which is the point.

So yeah, I despise gamer elitism
