wow

That thread is so incoherent I stopped reading it despite the hilarious bad takes. If you point out it's not legal infringement they cry about how it's plagiarism and nobody is talking about legal stuff when the same posters are literally saying Nintendo needs to protect their "artists" somehow. If it's just plagiarism then why should I give a fuck? Boo hoo, poor Pokemon, shutting the fuck up is free.

The best way I can describe it would be like if I asked gamers "Why are you playing games when you could just see the ending on YouTube?" Since the goal is to beat the game, it must be presumed that everything before the ending is an unnecessary inhibitor to that goal. The easy rebuttal to this is, obviously, "playing games is fun." But trying to tell folks like this that "literally making art fulfills me" and it's through one ear and out the other.

People will not understand that because it doesn’t make sense. You are confusing audience with creators. People enjoy seeing pictures, people enjoy playing video games; a small subset of people also enjoy drawing pictures and others enjoy creating video games.

Yeah, academic fraud is different. It matters in academia because of the academic system. It's a violation of the academic process not some societal crime.

and if palworld had been submitted as final coursework, they might be given an F and get kicked out of the school





...do we drill academic plagiarism into peoples' heads far too much and they confuse that with some universal legal/ethical constant?

scratch that, is this a plot by large companies to use the education system to convince everyone that the big corpos own far more than they do?

But Nep, you openly hate modern society and you have expressed how you think is a sham.

She should be the president of Harvard.

But on the other hand if they cited it as Pokemon, something legally they couldn't do in video games...

Being fair, I feel half of the people bitching about Palworld genuinely think TPC’s artists see any profit from their designs beyond the work for hire contract they did. And you are also asking for coherence to a bunch of people that think that being socialist is compatible with their hipster lifestyle.

Colin Moriarty talks directly about Resetera on the latest episode of sacred symbols because of a fan write in. Thanks them directly for driving in new viewers because of their insane reaction to Dustin and banning Gene Park 😂

Just wanna say welcome to the guy who wrote in about being on resetera and is now a Patreon here. I had a similar story to you early last year when Hogwarts Legacy was coming out. That's when I joined LSM and it's probably one of the best decisions of my life.
Cheers!

It gets worse, at 13:30, they openly admit to being Nazis and using Nazi dogwhistles.

User banned (permanent): inflammatory accusations, long history of inflammatory commentary

My guess for the breakdown would have been -

Paedophiles - 50%
Japan Culture Experts - 25%
"Ephebophiles" - 25%

Honestly while I don’t like all of their shows, they do have quite a few good panel podcasts if they’re your jam. So I’m also glad resetera had another retard moment and introduced me to something I would haven’t gotten into on my own.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Armchair Diagnosis of Mental Health; Ableist Rhetoric

The way he kept on messaging even after she stopped responding makes me think he might be on the spectrum. I think if she told him to knock it off he might have, but i'm not saying she had to or even should have done that or anything. It's a shitty situation and not responding at all is totally valid.

What he did is still gross.

FACT CHECK: It's not plagiarism, it's homage and besides Blizzard isn't doing it forcing her to make it. Also she made all the art herself rather than typing "make me Lucio" into an AI prompt.

The only thing I hope this movie does is bring back the Spongebob and Sandy sexual tension.

Always enjoyed that element of his character and felt stripping it was the beginning of them transforming Spongebob into a soulless merchandising machine.

It wasn't sudden as S2 and S3 dropped it and were still good but I felt it grounded him.

This should be the proper take in those threads but they're all wedded to upholding the monopoly corporations power to grant further monopolies uber alles.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

I don't think this is inconsistent, the logical endpoint of their views is a totalitarian state you just have to stamp Disney on the front of the police uniforms and they'll be fine with it. This state having monopoly ownership of all property would "protect IP" after all, it's not like you could publish your own copy of Mao's Little Red Book in China. (Well, not legally.)

While I think they want an authoritarian state if they got their way… in this case is just “Nintendo+Pokemon=Childhood=Good” rather than anything else beyond that. They probably see Nintendo and TPC as some sort of underdogs against the “adult world” of steam and tech bros stealing from artists.
