@Kalindlara I don't have the words for it yet but there's just something about the way it tries to make story points about othering and treatment of minorities, whilst constantly depicting people in a way that is othering and detrimental
so uh, high hopes for cyberpunk 😕
@Kalindlara it's been weird coming from a place of having heard so much praise for this game and like, the gameplay is good but the worldbuilding seems helplessly un-self-aware of its own biases
@Kalindlara I've been playing it for the first time lately and this keeps making me 🤔
also the uh, horny male-gaze that permeates the entire experience is something else
@thegoodlea But it's hard cause I don't doubt that most of them just want to help somehow, like to do *something* bc inaction or the idea that you can't do anything to help is really hard to face
@thegoodlea I'm sure folks have good intentions, but yeah the kinds of comments people make after such incidents always seem very self serving and oddly condescending. When you're struggling w depression, blanket reassurances just make me feel more alienated and isolated
@birdlegscass i've never been able to treat pokemon games as a connected experience, like transferring pokemon from one to the other just seems wrong and weird to me so idc
