i don't know why anyone expects anything but minor amendments at best with parliament reassessing the online safety act next month

they've dumped way too much money & time into it even if everyone with common sense thinks its a load of bollocks

only thing missing is an updated whitemane chapeau

throw that in & i’m wearing it on my priest until eos

if we're bringing back the aesthetics of the 90s and 00s, let's also bring back calling people sellouts

we can start with those using the terms 'unalive' or 'grape'

how my cat looks at me when i catch him ripping up an entire roll of kitchen tissue

if you're over 25 and you've not grown out of that "we don't need religion, nobody needs a sky daddy to be an adult imaginary friend!" phase of atheism, please get friends that you can't describe as "i see their username pop up a lot in my socials"

literally i would say majima being a pirate and there being a secret cabal of 1600s-style pirates in hawaii is genuinely LESS stupid than "what if we just erased 10+ years of kiryu's entire story just so haruka can do a punch"

"wouldn't it be cool if we got a haruka gaiden" is a statement that can't exist while you criticise the recent writing of rgg games by the way

the best part of legion remix is getting to wear the legion rogue sets without having to actually play a rogue

this whole shebang with rockstar union busting isn't going to change the fact that they could have leaked footage of sam houser dropkicking an employee down a flight of stairs, and gta 6 would still make more money than some entire countries would see in a year

also the best thing about legion remix is that i can put that absolutely awesome paladin set from antorus on all my plate users

i am also a warrior main, if i need chatgpt or any of its mutant offsprings to help me play that, i should probably never play wow again

i want a pc i can play world of warcraft on, why on earth would i need ADVANCED AI

then again, this is the franchise where they openly sell bleach japan merchandise, like "hey guys wear the merch of our in-universe equivalent of nippon kaigi"

so maybe they're just that stupid idk

like had they established ichiban had american/hawaiian blood, there is no fucking way somebody like kume or ogawasara wouldn't've used that

and there's no way that aoki wouldn't've resented them even more for that, because they're still talking about his brother in that way

a big issue for me with 7 & bleach japan in particular is it's lowkey obvious what bleach japan are, but it never goes past "we hate sex workers and the homeless"

they feel often defanged and in a series that tackles inequity, it's weird they didn't touch upon the very blatant xenophobia in japan

i can't recall if it was ever confirmed that akane in yakuza infinite wealth was american or if she just ended up in hawaii, but i do think it'd've been a neat extra plot hook for y7 had it been established there to be honest

also side note: if we're calling legion remix "lemix", does that make mists of pandaria remix "memix" or "pemix"...?

i could talk for hours about the symbolism in this game and how great its story is, but its combat is honestly pretty mediocre and by far the worst part of the package

my unfortunate final take about silent hill f is that it's a far more fun game to analyse & pick apart than it is to actually play

if you see atarashii gakko singing songs like "koi geba" or "otonablue" and your first thought is clutching your pearls tighter than your own asshole, then perhaps the issue isn't atarashii gakko

i'm still thinking of those japanese right wing accounts on twitter getting really care mad about atarashii gakko and them saying they shouldn't be wearing the seifuku as "men can't distinguish between a performance and a reality!"

projecting so hard you need imax

it is very easy to simply decide to not purchase a product and then to think nothing more of it

every day something comes out about yakuza kiwami 3 that tracks with what rgg do with the kiwami titles so far, and every day someone acts like they killed someone because of it

honestly since the most recent update, cyberpunk is quickly becoming one of my top ten games to just Chill in

it's so fucking fun lol

applying the blinding quickhack on a monowire in cyberpunk 2077 might not be as efficient as weapon glitch

but damn is it not funny to just smack the shit out of a bunch of enemies and then zip zoom around them with a shotgun as they're like "WHERE GO?!?!"

people comparing silent hill f to fatal frame have played neither

the summary the google ai is taking from isn't even right, it's based on one redditor seeing a middle school in the game and assuming that's the one she's attending

if you've played the game, or hell, even seen any of the promotional material, you know what is not the case at all

the fact people are taking ai at face value re: silent hill f & hinako's age is a pretty telling sign lol

i think you're definitely a bit naive at best if you read an ai summary of the plot and went "yeah that looks like a 13 year old child to me"

beginning to think the next step forward for media can only be that one chinese edit of fight club where they stop the movie before the final act to be like "Actually Tyler Durden Was Arrested And Project Mayhem Is A Bad Thing"

and even in the context of real life erotic hypnosis, once again, that is a controlled environment not too dissimilar to bdsm

so my only follow through on this must be that people genuinely think this is real and could actually happen in real life
