So think of it this way. Someone says coon and gets banned, they learn they can't use that word even if they didn't mean it in a hateful manner. Because of this, no one has to get offended by the word ever again on the game. Small price to pay, I don't see the problem. If you think this is a bad thing, you aren't looking at the bigger picture.
Or don't be racist
Liam does it really matter? Two wrongs don't make a right bro.
True enough. I don't see the problem with autoban on slurs though. I mean even if it only catches some. Laughing at these arguments that one slur is censored but not another, who cares? Baby steps.
What if we used AI and cloud computing to learn what slurs and hateful language was and somehow have it auto ban everyone who got out of line? Want to be a pos? Use your own Discord, simple. Do I realize this would cause outrage and a huge backlash? Of course, lots of people are just naturally pieces of crap. If it slowly chipped away at the toxicity in the online community? Wouldn't that just be stellar?
How about don't do crap online that you wouldn't do in person? It's not as if you can justify saying things online will keep you from doing it in person. If so, then you already have a problem, and it doesn't justify crap.
@jmc8888 I don't think this works for mics, I think it's just typed stuff. You can't voice chat to the enemy team, so a lot of this is typed chat. Even if it did. If you can't control things being said around you that might potentially hurt other people, maybe you shouldn't have your mic on. Secondly, there is no "stance" on whether white people are the only ones that can be racist. I have an example that I've experienced personally if you really need me to s...
There is a difference between shooting at someones character and playing the game the way it is meant to be played, and going out of your way to be hurtful to that PERSON. This isn't called Rainbow Six Siege "Internet warrior edition". If the way you "de-stress" is by trying to make other people feel bad because of their skin color, you might need to re-evaluate your life and maturity levels.
@raptor So you're saying that literally we should just ignore racism? The mute button might be simple, but do you know what else is simple? Not being a fkn racist. Ignoring issues like this is part of the problem as a whole. I get it man, no one should be offended by words. Especially from a kid on a game. That being said why is someone who is clearly not mature playing an M rated game? Maybe anyone who isn't mature enough to not say racist garbage shouldn't be allowed to play? *m...
Phone games > xbox exclusives
We will see. Modes can change everything. Pitchforks down please.
@aconnellan In all fairness, I think it's still the same type of social. Instead you roam around on the ship only, and you still interact with others how you want to. Either fighting or not fighting, which is the same thing as SoT.
Sure, Sea of Thieves is free. I know this is going to sound over the top, but in all seriousness. If I was a game tester, and Sea of Thieves was the game we were working on, I would quit my job. That is to say, you literally could not pay me to play that game again. Yes, I've played it. Yes I played with friends. And yes, even if the game is about playing with friends, it still needs content.
Yeah, make money, and make money. Different goals xD
This guy either A: Wants the re-invention of a genre. B: The 2nd coming of jesus. or C: Is just burnt out on superhero games. He goes on to explain mostly amazing things about it, and then says basically one bad thing that is supposed to justify the title. If he truly cannot see why people are so excited for it, after explaining why people are so excited for it. Maybe he should find a different career.
Because of gamepass? lol LoL SOLD so many more tho bwahahaha
What companies are you speaking of? Are we comparing Microsoft to..? Also I play mostly pc, and yes I use windows 10, but 0% of the money I spend on pc games goes to windows.
Sounds pretty clear that he is saying, "Fk single player games because we don't care about the minority. We just want to make what sells even if we ourselves don't like it as much."
What are the "etc?" I don't really know anyone that wants to play halo or gears solo, or even sod2. I mean sure those people exist, but the solo aspect of those games is not what's selling them.
It's funny how sensitive the people pointing fingers and calling other people sensitive are.
