Yeah, it is. I meant that, but that probably doesn't come across as a distinct style to make it obvious.

Yeah pretty sure of the 10s of millions of cars thats on the road that's not a big factor. Ok millennial

If wanting to share a hobby with your significant other is cringe, then I don’t know what the fuck cringe is anymore.

Anyway, Xbox Game Pass has solved this problem for a lot of people. Buy a Series S, get Game Pass, and just start downloading stuff. Then branch out from whatever clicks.

It was good when it first came out but going free to play kind of ruined it.

Its free but theres microtransactions

Ah. I don’t feel bad for those people

I thought it was just me! It happens to me if I'm near a ledge and almost fall too.

I'm sure it was. Just people buying cosmetics.

It's Gen Z slang, like calling something "goals". And I hate it.

It's a shame they never made a successor to this game.

Says genius who doesn't know the definition of a monopoly sit down son

Some folks just can’t be talked out of a bad idea

Forced exploration to collect seeds and the ending, completely undoing everything you worked for on top of being impossible to lose (but also trial by error puzzles) made me hate this game. The lack of sands and time powers and a different MC really did not make people tie it into the PoP franchise. They named the donkey at the start Farrah just to screw with us

Apex is free. Was the mobile version not?

Even worse in VR. You’re not alone.

This gives me nightmares

Is code vein any good?

I grew up in the 90s, bruh. Not a popular kid. And reading OP voice his fears on how he'd be perceived made me think back to it. "No one's attacking straight men here?" Dude, straight men attack each other for not looking straight enough, and everyone else attacks straight men if they seem too straight. Just like 2itemcombo below says "They are indirectly saying they are so fragile that looking at a guy's ass will make them gay."

This isn't a "Oh boo hoo you straight cis males you must have it so hard" but more of a "Come on, can't we be reasonable here" thing.

>Someone who indicates, even with hyperbole, loudly and publicly that they ignore these things to focus on visual arousal is indicating themselves to be a shallow and vulgar person. This is true whether they're a straight male, and straight woman, or a queer person.

And that's a fine opinion to have. I share the same opinion on loud, public, unprovoked declarations. As I said before, the only time I've heard this was when someone was confronted by another person who could not understand why a straight male was playing as a female (like Old-Passenger-9065, who started this) and was put into a position that they had to defend their sexuality.

If someone declares this loudly and publicly, without provocation, sure, that's a shallow and vulgar person. However, I will not judge someone who does so because another person is questioning them, because I don't know what is on the line for them, and as a non-macho dude I've been in that situation way too much. I have also known in my life heterosexual, homosexual, and pansexual people who have been in real danger or actually suffered real consequences because they didn't "present their sexuality" well enough. You run into all sorts as a foster parent in an urban area.

Old-Passenger-9065 is a good example of this - and I'm not saying a thing about him, personally, but the situation in general. A spouse looking over her husband's shoulder, seeing that he's always choosing to play as a woman, even in story and roleplay-heavy games... "Uh... why are you always playing as women, honey?" In many - not all, of course but many - relationships, that would immediately bring in tension. Is there something you haven't told me? Am I not enough? Maybe the spouse is mature enough either to understand the real, eloquently-stated explanation you gave about story, character, motivation... maybe they're not. Maybe this would put a strain on the relationship. It's hard to tell.

Djent is love, Djent is life.

Edit;

Any song from Metal: Hellsinger, too.

Wish it would play as good as it looks.

It cuts both ways. You've got people who shit on anything no matter what because they've seen a Youtube "review" or because it's from a specific company. And then there are those on the other side that will act as if you offended their ancestors for criticising a game they like. Yet these hypocrites are the first to join the former group in shitting on a game if it's something they also don't like. You're an incel if you dislike TLOU2 and if you buy any EA games then you're a pebble brain and deserve to lose all of your money.

It is quite pathetic. It's like people these days have no clue what nuance is. What, you're telling me that you can think that TLOU2 was a very flawed game while having female friends in real life? how can this be? You can dislike EA as a corporation while appreciating aspects of a game they published? What is this witchery?

It's also quite astonishing how many people have such surface level knowledge of the gaming industry and cannot even seperate, for example, developer from publisher. But that is a discussion for another clock.
