I'm happy there is no homophobia in the game, but I'm also sad with no lgbt characters.

Oh well, it's better than nothing I guess.

Honestly, that's just homophobia of a different sort.

How the fuck is that homophobic with no LGBT characters? That would make the VAST majority of media homophobic. Whether it be books, music, movies, shows, games, etc.

If anyone in the gaming industry actually listens to these cretins they are retarded.

[Boredfrom]

Kanji and Naoto are probably better written than most of the LGBT characters ERA celebrate just because their arcs are about gender stereotypes and societal expectations… but because Kanji was campy he is gay so shut up. And Naoto is trans because she wanted to be a boy because she wanted to be taken seriously rather than any genuine discomfort with her body.

Jesus Christ

We often talk about the hypocrisy of ResetEra but this is an especially disgusting example of it.

If you guys recall, Era have always been mercilessly out for Katsura Hoshino's blood. Who can forget the infamous, and utterly insane, "The Phobic Crimes of Katsura Hashino" thread?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-phobic-crimes-of-katsura-hashino-director-producer-atlus.100145/

All those examples listed in that thread can, at absolute best, be described as 'bad jokes' and both a sign of the times the games were made in as well as straight out cultural differences. Nothing is intended to deliberately cause hate or offence. Atlus have changed a great deal in the past decade, and especially in the 5 years since that thread was first made.

Yet ResetEra just can't fucking let it go. 

Every single opportunity they get, you constantly have forum celebrities like Neoxon, PlanetSmasher and 99% of the Trans-mafia constantly bringing up a few seconds of footage from games that take 100 hours to complete as 'proof' that Atlus is still phobic.

And I find it particularly revolting because just days ago there were 100's of comments from people expressing concern about the unfair hatred Bloober team received over the Silent Hill 2 remake. There was also this hand-wringing thread where people express their 'concern' over game developers getting excessive amounts of hate:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/cynicism-surrounding-games-game-developers.1000449/

Yet, here's cunts like Neoxon once again deliberately trying to put a target on Atlus's back.

And B-Dumbz willingly allows it, while his moderators actively encourage it.

ResetEra simply can't exist without absolute seething hatred for something. Whether it's Colin Moriarty, JK Rowling, CD Projekt, Atlus... hatred is their fuel.

Looking back at old threads it's amazing just how many posters have either been permabanned or requested their account be deleted.

[benji]

That would make the VAST majority of media homophobic. Whether it be books, music, movies, shows, games, etc.

Today [Oct. 7]

Bonsoir les enfants . l've been browsing the gaming forum for about a year now and really loving it , so wanted to be a part this wonderful community . PS2 really impacted me and formed my taste in video games . With Metaphore Refantazio coming out we have fantastic days ahead of us.

Would love to know how many non-alt new members Resetera has had in the past 12 months reach 100 posts.

I bet it's no more than double digits.

This Metaphor game is supposed to be set in an utopia, so what they're saying by removing them from the game is that only when all homosexuals and transgender people are eliminated will we have utopia. Hashino basically going full Joanne.

More than that, from what I've seen it appears to be literally set in Thomas More's Utopia (which seems to be the book you're carrying around) and Thomas More is a main character. However everyone on Restera is an idiot so this has passed without comment when speculating on what the story is trying to do.

How Israel killed hundreds of its own people on 7 October

https://electronicintifada.net/content/how-israel-killed-hundreds-its-own-people-7-october/49216

One year ago today Palestinian fighters led by Hamas launched an unprecedented military offensive out of the Gaza Strip.

The immediate goal was to inflict a shattering blow against Israel’s army bases and militarized settlements which have besieged Gaza’s inhabitants for decades – all of which are built on land that Palestinian families were expelled from in 1948.

The bigger goal was to shatter a status quo in which Israel, the United States and their accomplices believed they had effectively sidelined the Palestinian cause, and to bring that struggle for liberation back to the forefront of world attention.

“Operation Al-Aqsa Flood,” as Hamas called it, was, by any objective military measure, a stunning success.

Oh the resetera board logo. I am kind of flattered we have that power to alienate them.

Okay that's messed up now those scumbags are talking shit about Goodie Little Two Shoes too?!

Goodie Little Two Shoes is my favorite lgbt type game, it's very underrated and the game looks beautiful. How dare they talk smack about such a innocent and beautiful game!

This is incredibly pathetic but one thing that stood out to me was the idea that the average women in the western world has D cup breasts. Like not even in porn do the models have D cup breasts on average according to research conduced in 2013/2014 the average cup size for a pornstar in America was B cup

But of course facts and observable reality doesn't matter to these people, all that matters is feelings and hate. (and yeah having angry joe and resetera lumped together made me laugh too)

Being anti-woke seems exhausting.

Lol....using a picture of Alicia Vikander's Lara Croft complaining about breast size instead the actual in game model which has a substantial bosom.

I'm watching local New York news coverage of the pro-Palestinian protests and all the hand-wringing of "why today of all days" just makes me want to bash my head through a wall. "Can't we just take the time to remember the Israelis who were killed on October 7th" sure we can do that and also remember everyone else that has died in this "conflict" since. Folks trying to paint this as "the anniversary of a day of tragedy" as if it hasn't been ongoing tragedies the year since with only signs of escalating, and it's fucking gross and the non-zero chance these people don't even realize that only makes it grosser.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/trying-to-stay-sane-while-killing-time.1001754/

This is just me ranting and rambling and I'm sorry, but I need to get this out there to people besides friends, because I've complained to them enough at this point.

I've posted in the past before about moving. I currently live in a middle of nowhere rural Texas town, and am set to move to Rochester, Minnesota. Really excited. I was doing so by selling the land I inherited after the person who raised me, my great grandmother, passed back in 2017.

That was going mostly smoothly...until the final steps. The title company seems to have an objection due to the possibility of the original owner of this land, my great grandfather, having kids that they can't confirm or deny have heirship to the land.

They had a legal battle with my great grandmother back in 2010 after their dad/her husband passed, because there was no will and they both felt they had claim to the land. The court ultimately gave it to her, not the kids, and we hadn't heard about them in the 14 years since.

But for reasons I can't know, my grandmother didn't keep the papers proving that the courts did that...so despite the house being in her name from 2010-2017 when she passed, and a verified will passing it to me...the title company doesn't consider it good enough. My realtor is trying to do everything she can to get it solved, but we don't know how long it's going to take, and I have an apartment lined up in MN that I need to pay rent on come the end of the month. I secured and leased this apartment when I did because I was assured it would not take longer than October 11th...but clearly things changed.

So I'm currently left here. I'm unable to start my new life, but my old life has all either been packed away or sold in order to make ends meet until I am moved. I have a vision disability, and no reliable public transit so can't work while I'm here. All my friends are busy leading their lives. All my family are both busy and frankly uncaring towards me.

I'm just left sitting alone, stewing with nothing to do but sit around, and panic about the immediate future. I'm so close to finally being out and able to start my life but I'm also stuck at the last step, and am going insane waiting.

TLDR: My move hit a roadblock and I'm going crazy for things to move again.

trans twitter is currently angry about this artwork

(image of what tweet used to contain: )

there are plenty of beautiful, non-passing, clocky pre-hrt trans women. This isn't that. This is a caricature. This is designed to make you feel worse, not seen

in that context, i don't even care if they KNEW what they were producing was a transphobic caricature or not. If they can't see the resemblance to extremely common hate illustrations, or are unaware of them, their art has utterly failed to reach its own goals through ignorance

some issues...

- the art is from like 2018, in a manchester department store, it's not new

- it's a drawing of a real person, so if it's an "ugly caricature" what does that say...?

- the artist has drawn a lot more in that style which is now upsetting them further (nsfw)

[AnnoyedCanadian]

It's amazing how much they share openly on that forum when it's public. Like, they need a come to Jesus moment and realize not putting your entire life for strangers to read is the best idea.
