I play games professionally and shit-talk them casually

@QuaddGodSquad Hey some people derive pleasure from pain. And if after season 2 you still felt pleasure then we know what you are into 😉

Xbox has shut down more studios than released games this year.

Let that sink in.

[Ashar Ahmad @Mistah_Cookie]

man what a fall. From being among the top 10 selling PS titles in history to this.
Mass refunds, review bombing and being unable to purchase in numerous regions now. I really hope this doesn't kill the game

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

Why doesn't the media talk about the DR of Congo?

Congo is bleeding, It has not ended over 5 million people are dead and millions especially 40,000 children are in labor camps and cobalt mines around the country

The world must remember that we live in a society, not an economy

Remember when Russia was banned from Eurovision because of the war in Ukraine? They said “Russian entry would bring the competition into disrepute”. Here, they are promoting the most hated genocidal state in their competition. Western values are a lie.

Straight fire from Irish MEP Clare Daly:

The truth is clear: Israel is destabilizing the region with aggression and genocide, yet the European Parliament spins a fairytale blaming Iran.

Wake up.

No one believes it.

I have the line "This day will never come again, so let me have this moment" that Tifa spoke tattooed on me for a reason.

It wasn't just her beauty, she was an incredible character who was well written. That line stuck with me from the first time I saw it to the time when I decided to get the tattoo. It's been a great reminder to just enjoy every single day with someone you care about.

Rino makes one of the most beautiful points, that this reduction of women today is exceptionally sexist and degrading. Beauty has nothing to do with worth or content, yet some people have made it that way, to state you can't have a pretty character and story just seems.....wrong. This idea that a character should be more "real"- still no one can tell me what that even means. Are real women not beautiful? What are you telling the women who are casted as models for these western games- are they not beautiful people?

when it comes to changes:
In degrading characters and art in the physical sense, they also changed character personalities. Look at the new Lara Croft and how they don't understand her at all, and that confusion and shallowness shows in the physical design.

Games are a form of art that offer a chance for escapism. The human brain craves beauty, i've said it before. And all forms of art deserve to exist as the author intended and without the influence of someone else who demands change or censorship, no matter what that censorship is. Throughout all of history, idealistic forms of art have existed, why is that now a problem? The people seeking to tear that down are never on the right side of history, you know......

There is nothing wrong with exaggerated, sexualized, beautiful, or NSFW art. To demand change to any of that is to be a pearl clutching catholic from the 90s who would label pokemon demonic- thanks for coming full circle I guess? When you decry these things, but cheer for real life NSFW creators, do you have any idea how ignorant you look?

Censorship came for them too! Patreon took away the ability for them to create what they wanted at the request of payment companies, which will turn around and happily support other forms of entertainment that showcase the very thing they restrict on other platforms!

This whole conversation is a sad joke. Let a woman's body be appreciated, let it be the art that it is. And a man's body! Adults should be able to decide what to do and what to buy and what to create. If you don't like something, don't go looking it up? Don't consume that content- in fact, go create what you want to see and share it with the world.

Everyone should be cheering together that a grown adult woman entered into a contract with a studio to have her likeness used- that should be BADASS to EVERYONE! And the stories being told around it? It's fine if it's not for you, but this whole "well its shallow" because you don't understand it or refuse to understand, it is just tiring.

Let all art exist without the guilt or check boxes or demands of censorship. The most beautiful characters throughout gaming history also happen to have beautiful stories- don't project your intentional ignorance on the rest of us just because you don't get it, window shopper (speaking to these weirdos who cry for censorship, the double standard 'journalists', and the people crying porn addicts who seem to forget their likes are public).

There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been decimated, 100% of the population displaced and 50% of the deaths children…

So keep protesting against GENOCIDE..🇵🇸💔

[Ashar Ahmad @Mistah_Cookie]

@QuaddGodSquad A bunch of outfits and gore got censored. Funnily there is actually a cyber booba outfit called Cyberpunk Bondage that was also censored 😂

🇺🇸🇲🇽🇮🇱 I've discovered a never-before proposed 2-state solution--place Israel between 2 states: Mexico and the United States. #UnitedStatesOfIsrael

ADVANTAGES:
▪️We could put a wall all the way around Israel to protect it from immigration invasions. Since American leadership won't build a wall for Americans, but will spare no expense for Israel, Israel and its wall would serve as a de facto wall for the US border. 2 birds, one shekel.
▪️Texas Governor Greg Abbott wouldn't have to travel half-way around the world to kiss the wall. Remember: the business of Israel is the business of Texas! Perfect synergy.
▪️Easier for American congressmen to make Aliyah.
▪️Israel would get the land from the river (Rio Grande) to the sea (the Gulf of Mexico)--just what it's always wanted.
▪️Israel would be closer to its drug and human-trafficking operations.
▪️American evengelical Christians, concentrated in the southern United States, would be closer to their greatest ally.
▪️Mexico's future next-president ✡️Claudia Sheinbaum could live in Israel and commute home from work on the weekends.
▪️Mexican Catholics would be new Christians for Israelis to spit on.
▪️Finally get some decent tacos and BBQ both in Israel.

DISADVANTAGES:
🔻Israel would be our neighbor.
🔻Fewer wars in the Middle East for American military contractors to profit off of.
🔻No more democracy in the Middle East.
🔻Fewer proxy wars with Russia in the Middle East.
🔻International relations with Iran and other Middle Eastern countries would improve.
🔻We wouldn't get to pay $Billions in bribes to various Middle Eastern countries to not attack Israel.
🔻All the businesses that fled the United States for Israel would be right back on our doorstep.

What do you think of my solution?

[Ashar Ahmad @Mistah_Cookie]

The entitlement of this dipshit.. wow

INDIAN ANCHOR SHUTS DOWN ISRAELI WHO LOSES HIS MIND OVER HER SARI THAT RESEMBLES PALESTINIAN FLAG

[Ashar Ahmad @Mistah_Cookie]

Best use of Twitter's increased word count.

Same people celebrate freedom when it suits their agendas but want censorship when it doesn't conform to their norms. Whatever your stance on this, marketing a product as uncensored and censoring it just after release is just a scam

[Savvy ( ˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵ ) @MadamSavvy]

People see hypocrisy.

And every single person who tries to boil down the current online conversation to “gAmEr ChUds” just want over sexualized women in games is a shallow, single celled organism who thoroughly doesn’t have the capacity to have a conversation.

We are, at the end of the day, all human with the same biological hardwiring. We naturally are drawn to certain markers that will influence art, product sales, creation, imagination, etc. our eyes want to look at appealing things, our brains crave beauty, from a rising sun saturated in colors, to the idealistic form of a human and all the uniqueness that makes them stunning works of art.

The “sexy outfits” don’t hurt anything. It’s okay to just be positive or even neutral about something, in the exact same manner that it should be okay to notice the things mentioned in the second headline.

Both, the design and exaggeration of Eve should be fine just as should be all the imagery and vision of Balder’s Gate 3. But for whatever reason, click bait bloggers have given themselves this imaginary moral authority to decide which is fine and which isn’t- what “hurts sales”- which is void from facts based in reality- and what “is most important”.

These people would be much happier in life if they stopped cultivating this pathetic online discourse. By celebrating censorship and displaying blatant hypocrisy, they bring commentary upon themselves. No longer are these bloggers shielded from public response thanks to the way the internet works now. People can let them know just how they feel about their trashy words. They aren’t needed anymore to bolster the sales of something because a single twitch streamer is more effective than their bot viewed website.

No product should be subject to censorship anywhere. Every product should be able to be sold as the creator intended and the free market should decide success. You are free, absolutely, to not like something and not buy it. But under the guise of a “writer”, at least pretend for the sake of the word “journalism”, you have some form of consistency or lack of bias.

People will, thanks to this type of blatant hypocrisy, celebrate censorship when it happens to you. You cause this and bring it upon yourself. Instead of breaking from the narrative of group think, you feed into the same machine and no progress for anyone is ever made.

Unlike these type, most normal people are completely okay with both things existing and wouldn’t call one a problem over the other. Most normal people don’t live their lives by the clickbait headlines.

On top of that, MOST people online can get behind creative freedom for all. But cherry picking and purposeful dilution of words make it seem like that isn’t the case.

thanks to people like this, thanks to anyone who clickbaits and can’t just be for creative freedom, we are here now.

I celebrate story telling. All forms. From jiggle physics on men and women. To heartbreak stories, to hentai, to yaoi, to yuri, to straight, whatever. It’s all art. Plot or no plot. Everyone has the capacity to create and share their work thanks to the internet, yet there are those cheering censorship??? Insane.

In the year of 2024, for all the “advances” and “progression” humans boast, we sure are painfully and worthlessly censored still at the behest of entitled shitheads.

Companies do not care about you, me, or anyone but their bottom lines. Investors do not care about any of us and only focus on their ROI.

I’m tired of pendulum swings. The old systems need to be burned in totality- the old methods of marketing are dead. The world of journalism is dead. Let art be art. Let people create what they want without being subjected to check boxes or requirements.

I choose to hold conversations that favor creative freedom for all, is that truly so controversial?

BREAKING: Israel is dropping white phosphorus bombs on South Lebanon, deliberately burning our villages and farm lands.

Only Israel is allowed to drop white phosphorus on civilian areas in Lebanon and Palestine, repeatedly, and the international community won’t even blink.
