IT WOULD NOT BE DIFFICULT MEIN FUHRER!

But what about racism? Is racism also bad? I need video games to tell me whether racism is bad or not.

Ok I just got back from playing Tales of Symphonia and can confirm: racism is bad. Thanks Tales of Symphonia for telling me this.

mostly if you're in the mindspace of not being a cynical oval office that thinks any game's attempt at doing emotional poo poo is "trying too hard", really

like I said it's neat but then youve got people saying "ITS THE GREATEST MOMENT IN VIDEOGAME HISTORY I CRIED FOR DAYS" and it's like, cmon man

Yeah, this game always gets me pretty hard and I usually think most games are pretty bad at stirring up emotion.

Oh, it's hyperbole, but really, there's very little media-wise that ACTUALLY evokes those feelings - and there's some people that are really emotional anyway.

It's cool when you use your unique media vehicle to tell a story instead of making a little movie to tell it, basically.

I agree, and I've never played that game so like, it's hard for me to tell; but I think that game designers are more about it than game players, who may "get" it and have a moment... or just end up stuck and mad when they google the answer.

Also people are real fukkin mad you shoot white people in the new far cry.

i prolly shouldn't be surprised at anything at this point but i was still like startled that made some internet retards mad

they think a game whose protagonist is a square-jawed american aryan superman is racist against whites and they're mad that wolfenstein, a series of videogame revenge fantasies about murdering nazis, is "political" now lmao

I feel like Stiv has been saying he's giving up on running Banjo games for like 5 years now. I'm honestly kinda shocked he's running it again at GDQ.

This run is heavily adulterated.

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
