The great thing about Unity as it's set up is that you can use the free version to at least built a working prototype then, if you and your team have decided to go all in, purchase the full version and simply drag-and-drop the files in. If you're serious and there's five of you, that's $300 a person. That's a few bake sales, some overtime, and selling some poo poo on eBay money. Edit: holy poo poo, I read those guys' credits, that's like Brad Pitt asking for money to buy a RED digital camera so he and Angelina can make a movie. Of course, EA really didn't pay them very well.

Dieting Hippo posted:Now, if you want to talk about a strong female lead being neutered (spayed?) out of their games, look at Samus. Every Metroid game, every one had her as an independent protagonist that was strong and didn't rely on a male protagonist to reach the goal. Except for Other M where she becomes "uguu samus-chan~," a submissive female that can't do anything until Adam tells her. poo poo, it's even known from interviews that that's what Sakamoto was going for. Even before "Other M", Samus was being depowered and sexualized in the Zero Mission and Smash Bros. Brawl by being stripped of her iconic and remarkably unfeminine Power Suit in favor for the skin-tight Zero Suit and making her a slim blonde. I certain Sarkeesian will bring that up in the Fighting gently caress Toy segment. Also, Nintendo, can you at least once make "The Legend Of Zelda" mean something? It's not the legend of Link, it's Zelda's legend. Like it's Zelda's story. It's a point that's actually bothered me before the Tropes Vs. Women pointed it out.

Alan Smithee posted:Careful folks. You dont want to end up on gamers.text The problem I'm seeing is that people want to talk about this and when given the opportunity, will do so. However, most venues tend to get filled with MRAs decrying a false "misandry", which requires moderation to keep that signal to noise down. It's happened when we tried to discuss the Tropes vs. Women in Games and is the reason why Sarkeesian shut down comments. However, I wish she used some of her pledge money to create a forum where people could discuss the topics she raises without it getting flooded by MRAs.

I doubt they're complaining, because everyone knew, how the whole tier level was worded, that they would be dead in a panel anyway. I believe there was a tier just above that the said their OG troll would at least be guaranteed to survive at two panels, meaning they'd be introduced, participate in some way like being in the background in the next panel, then get immediately killed off.

Prolonged Priapism posted:The mom probably thinks of it as a first lesson in business and attracting investors to a project. But it's just really out of touch and creepy - just let her run a lemonade stand or something. Or at least let the kid actually make the pitch and video, she'd get something out of it that way. There's actually very few outlets for kids to learn how to run a business these days. There are laws that prohibit the operation of lemonade stands, the least of which requires a permit to run as well as following food service and health ordinances and the like. There's been cases where the cops have come out and shut down some kid's operation that hasn't made $5 then fined the parents $500. "Stranger danger" and people's intolerance for door-to-door sales has pretty much killed those school-sponsored chocolate sales and the internet has hurt sponsored magazine and newspaper sales. There's always Girl Scouts, but even there, you're better off leveraging with the group and sit out front of a Walmart than going it alone and deal from your own sidewalk.

Magypsy posted:I just found an actual website selling those horrible athiest shoes from a while back. What's interesting about those shoes is that, last month, it was reported on the news aggregate sites that there's some unofficial discrimination going on in the USPS involving the tape they use in packaging. quote:The company regularly ships shoes, like the ones pictured above, to America. When it does, it seals its boxes with tape featuring the company logo, which is stylized as "ATHEIST · ATHEIST · ATHEIST" (see below). But these shipments often run into problems.

Khisareth posted:Despite the fact that someone out there thought "Let's design a Pedobear shirt" and someone else printed it, and he bought it, no it is not acceptable. Completely forgot that P-bear was created as an innocuous Japanese mascot in a whole lineup of mascots a year or so before it was appropriated by 4chan, did you? I'm certain that the bear carries a different meaning in Japan than in America.

Prop Wash posted:Let's evaluate the possibility that he ordered his shirt from a Japanese clothing company (and in three years of living in Japan I've never actually seen a wild pedobear) versus the possibility that he is a wretched nerd, loves 4chan, and ordered a t-shirt from other wretched nerds. Pedobear, IIRC, came from 2channel as ASCII art of "Kumar!" for troll bait back in 2000 (the joke being a bear caught while fishing by a fishing hook). By the time the 4Chan appropriated it for their own uses, it was 2005-2006, right when a company called Sukueya started putting out 2channel merchandise, including a zodiac of mascot characters that include Kumar/Pedobear. Khisareth posted:I fully admit I didn't research the original origin of a 4chan meme before passing judgement except he doesn't live in Japan. I really doubt he ordered a T shirt in a naive accident, to wear during his speech on putting together a Magic the Gathering podcast. I'm not saying he didn't. People buy poo poo from Japan all the time to fit their own secret meanings. Of course, I know there's an American company that licenses such meme flotsam. Verdugo posted:The hairbrained schemes folks have been very disengenuous about the project's direction. I would not be surprised if they knew this (and the licensing issue) from day one, and just decided to omit it from the original kickstarter. What the gently caress are you talking about? They've been very forthcoming about their work on the game.

CommissarMega posted:So I was puttering about one day on 4chan (I know, I know), when I saw a blank link to something called 'offbeatr'. I thought it sounded familiar, but didn't know where from. I followed the link, and then I remembered a split second before the page loaded: Offbeatr is the adults-only Kickstarter. It may be cheating (ahahaha), but I thought I'd poke around (sorry) and see if there was anything worthy of posting. Hoo boy (all links are Well, 4chan didn't fund that game for no reason. I thought it was pretty sketchy with no concept art of its own to show for the announcement, but then I recalled the name of being the guy who made that "Corruption of Champions" Flash game that is super-popular on the chan boards, so he pretty much made a mint off them, although I'm sure he's going to spend a huge amount commissioning the artists.

Hell, one of my musician friends who does horror punk and self publishes all his albums has almost 3k friends, and I'd hardly call an indie horror punk solo act "famous". I probably shouldn't have used "famous" but, like your musician friend, they probably do something to get those likes. They're active off-line and on-line.

pathetic little tramp posted:The most amazing thing about that article is that there's a Monopoly world championship. How does that work? Is the last person who doesn't say "gently caress this this sucks" and leaves the winner? Monopoly can be played for fun and to a successful completion (to win at Monopoly, it's having the most money at the end of the game). It's not like it's some sort of anomaly that you can play where everyone has fun playing it, although I will admit that only happened with the "electronic banking" version of the game, where there's no banker player and everything is run off a transaction calculator and "credit cards". Seriously, when you don't have to worry about banker cheating, the game takes on another dimension, especially when inter-player sales and negotiating starts.
