"I'm sorry that I don't like hanging out with toxic people when I'm playing games for fun... That's my bad right?"
Don't apologize to me. You didn't hurt my feelings. Just grow tougher skin. That's all.
"And when did I say That my feelings were hurt? Stop putting words in my mouth."
I kind of explained this already in a roundabout way earlier, but I guess it didn'...

"People that are toxic should be banned because it's not fun playing with them. It's as simple as that."
By the way, thanks for proving my point: That this isn't about race to people like you, but instead about people hurting your god damned feelings... Something that is entirely subjective, I might add. What may hurt your feeling and be toxic to you, may not be to others. The world does not stop and start at your conven...

"You're telling me to mute in a game like R6S? Clearly, you don't play it much. I reported a ton of people for toxic behaviour & I'm glad some of them got banned & I hope they learned from it."
Yes, I am. And yes, I do. If you depend that much on communicating with the toxic, racist 12 year-old on your team then it sounds like you have a severe case of gitgud. And careful not to break your arm patting yourself on...

You think I enjoy pre-pubesecent kids telling me they're going to plow my mom while they call me a "n****r"? No, it's gross and detracts from the experience, but I also know how to use a fucking mute button or vote-to-kick. It's really that simple.
People want to have fun. If you're gonna be a party pooper in a game then stop crying to developers, and just use the fucking mute button like all the rest of the god damn adults. B...
Duh. And there is no guarantee that consumers won't walk away from a company that thinks it's entitled to babysitting everything their players do. It goes both ways, and you can bet it will.
Nah. That's what parents are for. It is not the duty of game developers to babysit and police the thoughts and speech of their players. Are they allowed to do that? Absolutely. Should they? Nah. You worried about kids being racist? Be a better parent, and encourage others to do the same. Good behavior starts at home. A video game banning people does not fight racism by even a modicum.
Them six months later: "Nobody playing our game. :("
Us: "Good."
As a private company they are well within their rights to push away their own consumers. I support their decision, albeit a foolish one. There is always another developer out there on the sidelines waiting for their competition to slip up just like this.
You nailed it, brother.
If he doesn't make any profit from free software, then the joke's on them for spending thousands on a lawsuit for something that can't be undone. Basically suing someone all because of their frail egos. Which I wouldn't put past Konami at this point.
Paid internship? If so, then cool. If not, then modernslavery.txt
You're a loser.

The last thing I want is a greedy and shady company like Google developing yet ANOTHER monopoly over the tech industry. No thank you. Stay the fuck away from gaming forever, please Google.
"so many"
Cite more than twenty. I'm all for women being represented in fictional video games, in any and all capacities, but don't blow smoke up my ass and tell me it's fresh air. I won't believe it.
WW2 was fought and paid for primarily with the blood of brave men. These kinds of statements are part of the "women too!" feel good movement. Knock it off.
Again, my comment has nothing to do with video ...
Only a sore loser drags politics into something that has no correlation whatsoever. Grow up, man.
I support their decision to add women, and I'll probably be buying the game, but I will say this:
It isn't smart to tell your consumers, "If you don't like, too bad, don't buy it."
That sends a clear message to your consumers that we don't give a flying fuck what you think. Imagine when the stakes are high and they still tell us to kick rocks once more. That's what bothered me most about this ordeal. They could have deliv...
I don't have a problem with it. It's all fictional. It's alternate history. I don't need a game to be historically accurate for me to know that female soldiers aren't really combat effective.
It doesn't take a Phd. in biology to know that men are more physically capable for combat than women. Big deal. Video games most represent fiction. Let women be happy and let them feel included in the party. Who cares? It doesn't change reality.
By the way, getting offended over words like "retard" is a very Western-centric view of reality. There are many countries outside the West where English is not their first language and so they don't understand all the social faux pas of our language. Basically, what I'm trying to say is: Check your privilege.
This your first day on the internet? Online gaming must be terrifying for you if you can't handle the word "retard". Grow thicker skin. And as for your kids, you do realize when people say the word "retard" they aren't referring to your children? It literally isn't personal. The world does not revolve around you and your issues. No one cares that your kids are mentally challenged. You're not under attack. Get over yourself.

"So they should do nothing?"
What the fuck is the mute and vote-to-kick supposed to be for? That is putting the players in complete control over the level of toxicity in their community. If people are TRULY that bothered by toxic players then we should encourage each other to vote-to-kick and/or mute said players. If you're not willing to stand up for what you believe in and set that kind of example in-game, then stop whining. You're part of the p...
