A fuckin CENSORED greentext? Really? Never thought I’d see the day 4chan got whitewashed lol
Assuming OOP said ‘retarded’, that doesn’t fit their message well does it?
it’s called context switching, within 4chan the r-word is an honorific rather than a slur.
There is nothing wrong with the word “retard”, don’t let corporations push their double speak.
I’ve grappled with “retard” & “bitch” (made a thread about it a couple months ago too, trying to form/reform my opinion).
Clearly we have to be careful with any messages industry pushes. With that said -
What do you think about these statements from Special Olympians?
I appreciate your good faith response. I see and empathize with your perspective. To play devil’s advocate, you can’t control whether a group of people decide, out of the blue, to internalize hurtful language that isn’t aimed at them. The N-word had a very specific target and a very cruel purpose. The word “retard” did not. It basically has the same vernacular trajectory as “moron,” or “idiot.” From medical diagnosis to non-specific pejorative. Why aren’t those synonyms verboten? Because people like to make things about themselves.
It comes from the medical diagnosis “mental retardation”. It was designed from the beginning to target disabled people.
That is true, if you use it against disabled poeple. I only use it against moronic able poeple who should know better.
Honestly, that’s maybe worse. If you’re using it to say something bad about someone else, that means it’s a bad thing and should be condemned. The people who it is actually meant to apply to (in its original meaning) then see them, as a group, as a thing that is insulting to even be associated with.
It’s wild how hard critical thought is for some people while discussing a word about intelligence…
Americans and their hatred of random words. Lmao.
It’s so social media AI doesn’t block the image. Yeah, that’s our world now.
I’m honestly surprised that no one calls this game woke
Because the game sold and reviewed well, so it goes against the narrative of “get woke go broke”
Mainly because you can shove “woke” shit down peoples throats and they won’t care as long as they get to play a manly man or stacked chick and the story and characters are well developed. It’s just when the game is really bad that people care about it and then the studios can blame the poor performance on the alt-right as a cop out for their shitty game. I.e. Star Wars outlaws and Concorde
> You will not be able to play multiplayer without hackers ruining the experience
Is it as bad as GTA Online?
Worse. I’m convinced that Rockstar only keeps the servers running because nobody knows which ones they are among the sea of GTA5 servers. The game has been entirely abandoned by the devs, because it never took off like GTA5 did.
Hacking in RDO isn’t just rampant; It’s downright expected. If you’re not hacking, you’ll constantly get blown up from across the map by people with unlimited explosive ammo, no reloads, and auto-aim. The bare minimum requirement is an unlimited health hack, just so you can survive the cross-map snipes long enough to finish a mission or two.
It’s worse. It is utterly abandoned by rockstar
I tried playing online when it first came out. It was fun for a few days, but wasn’t very long before cheaters would just spawn a hundred cougars right on top of you every game.
I’m sure that was frustrating for you, but from an outsider’s perspective that’s funny as fuck.
Yeah the first time was objectively funny. But it became a multiple times an hour thing, where you just couldn’t play the game any more.
There was that other thread talking about Ubisoft games and how theyre putting a black samurai in there. I wrote a comment about how ubisoft marketing is so controversial but then they deliver these milquetoast Ubisoft games.
Just imagine if Farcry 5 actually went the route of RDR2 and had some fucking balls. Instead of try to appeal to both sides.
That’s what I don’t get, out of millions and hundreds of thousands gamers, how many are actually that stupid and bigoted to rage on anything they don’t like? These incel gamers always accuse many games as being woke, but then these games are blockbusters. Devs listen to a loud minority who don’t represent the entire community of gamers. The rest are silent majority who, have varying interest of games, like a game for being a good game, not because it is “woke”. And hate a bad game, because it is a bad game. It’s simple as.
Devs fall into the faux outrage bait from tiny minority of unthinking hordes, and it actually makes them bad than if they just ignore ridiculous baseless cries.
Edit: grammar
I love the fact that the slave owner is not only the one unarmed person you don’t lose honor for killing, but you actually gain honor for killing him.
You also don’t lose honor for killing this guy, and can do it right in front of the police without them reacting
That guy was, I think, intended as a stand-in for real-life eugenicist and all-round villain Henry Laughlin. Killing him in-game was quite the treat.
I can shoot that dude without getting a bounty? :O
I would never have guessed. I can’t even walk down the street in Saint Denis without getting bullshit “disturbing the peace” bounties. I like to pretend it’s because they’re jealous of Arthur’s awesome mustache.
Much people forget before black slavery there was white slavery… So its just good if there is none slavery.
Not comparable
Slavery is slavery no matter who does it or whom it’s done to.
Not even close. Chattel slavery is much worse.
Can’t even bang prostitutes, cowboy gta 1/5 stars
You can? Tho they are quite expensive, still cheaper than a gf tho!
But what does that have to do with this game?
Nah if you say yes it’s a set up. Why code something that isn’t available. It’s like making a door that never opens. Or a war game with no blood. Or an empty building. Immediate world breaking. Those nice honorable cowboys who have killed hundreds of men lol. The game just seemed lazy and repetitive to me. Good job Rock $tar. Also fuck you for having your own loader.
whoosh
Of course the only person who feels the need to voice negativity about the game is also the person with a demonstable inability to read.
Rustled your jimmies aye? Aren’t you clever, how many languages do you read/write? Just proficient at cowboy cock I see. Y’all have fun up on that mountain hopefully your back is ok now.
?
If you agree to the one lady of the evening she leads you into a trap.
I was not talking about the game? I never played it?
Neither of these sentences are questions? Stop using question marks on statements?
You know, I didn’t believe in postumus abortions until I read your comment?
Oh great. Now I just lost The Game. Thanks a lot.
Not that game.
And BTW, you won the game.
instance checks out
Now that I think about it, RDR2 is set in the past. I don’t think people tend to question the past; the values set by the past is taken for granted today. Anyone who might complain about it makes them look outwardly supportive of regression.
The wild west was largely a myth sold to people who stopped in remote towns and the people there put on a wild west show. So whatever you think of the game, it’s based on a myth.
