I remember Marcus Fenix’s love interest ending being pretty butch like. Why expect eye candy on Gears of War of all places. The only hyper sexualized female character was the Locust Queen.
Imagine caring about Gears of War when all the money goes to the IDF.

The Umamusume community says that this girl is a CHUD:
I suppose to a lot of people now means either manchild or basement dweller.
Just because I want to pick on this point they're always saying because they get all their info from Hasan and other similar sources:

See the empire we currently accept as a base reality with no question --- which as Nepenthe basically points out --- IS the problem here. Period. People want to wax about this guys ability to work, and his merits because they aren't even considering the overall system that allows this shit to happen on the regular.
(READ NEPENTHE'S POSTS)
Where as Jacob himself and that article use what I can only describe as "corporate" speak (I call it imperial register) to mask and misdirect their intent. The article that was praised said nothing of value, nothing different from all the other people going "but he was a good boy, and he said he was sorry... so I feel conflicted about damning him to a life of exile you know?"
They literally said the same thing as many others said, and to me when somebody goes "this captured my thoughts perfectly!" I feel like people aren't even able to see that. Geller also uses language...
...and this post shows that. I am so tired of people falling for word-jiutsu, and just seeing people go "Look how smart they are! They must be right!" because they used a ridiculous vocab to "communicate"... (the "concur" in his apology really filled me with rage if I'm honest) https://www.resetera.com/threads/youtuber-and-minnmax-host-jacob-geller-accused-of-sexual-assault-up-geller-confirms-accusations-no-longer-associated-with-minnmax.1647682/post-161340376 Nepenthe's post is so jargon-filled that it's incomprehensible to anyone who isn't already familar with Marxist-corporate-speak and even then she's such a bad writer and poor thinker that it's still incomprehensible and meaningless when it isn't being tautological once you strip away the excess verbage. The last thing it is normal, reasonable or effective language. It's literally a post that makes dumb people go "Look how smart they are! They must be right!" because they aped a ridiculous vocab of existing morons who have never been right about anything but continue to stan some 19th Century white European dudes because it gives them the moral authority (with morons) to make unreasonable demands as cover for merely being anti-social and violent. It is simply amazing how she doesn’t realize how exhausting it is for members (that aren’t drinking her kool-aid) to participate in a community where staff members treat the userbase with open contempt. Calling user reactions "baby shit" and telling members to "fucking grow up." What a nasty person to have as an admin of a community.
If you do strip away the verbose nonsense, she’s saying any critique of the theory is treated as a moral failure or an attack on the victims. You cannot reason someone out of a position when they use bogus theory to lock themselves into. It’s why members rightfully ask for a solution to ignore staff.

Alana’s trying to stay relevant by posting a shitty clickbait video
Ocarina of Time will be the bigger release
I know people who own PS5's who want GTA6 but I don't know anyone who is buying one to play GTA6. They either wait for the game to release to see if it is actually good or the PC release down the line. OOT on the other hand is making people buy a Switch 2. Those who haven't played it before, those who are nostalgic for it and those who want a second Switch 2 because it has a Zelda sticker on it.
GTA6 also has the "jason is a cuck" controversy among what used to be the target audience and the most popular element of GTA5 was GTA Online and that is still MIA.
Ocarina of Time is what Top Gun Maverick was post COVID back in 2022. The game that will revive the gaming industry.
The 1st GTA6 trailer had 300 million views.
The 2nd trailer dropped to 180 million views.
The "extended look" 30 million views.
