ThisIsACoolGuy posted:Not to dig this up much but I heard that it's just back in time and Erica still goes through with it and it's never implied otherwise so you're just seeing them before. Apparently that's not the case and the person who insists otherwise is a less-than-reliable source.

My work can be found on @redstate, @nichegamer, @dailycaller, @OneAngryGamerhd, & youtube." So you know, grain of salt and all that. Also in the original game the entire male cast keeps throwing passive aggressive barbs at Erica about not being a real woman, she gets sent to the nightmare world for men who are bad at getting women pregnant, and when the guy who didn't know her pre-transition hooks up with her and then finds out about her history he acts super distraught about losing his virginity to her. The director of Catherine is pretty infamous for having Opinions About LGBT People so people aren't exactly eager to give his work the benefit of the doubt in the first place.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:How are people supposedly seeing the new stuff anyway? Did it leak somewhere or come out in Japan? It came out in Japan a couple days ago and Catherine isn't exactly the longest game to play through. Mel Mudkiper posted:Serious question, how culturally universal is the concept of dead-naming for trans individuals? I genuinely don't know and am curious if its a concept thats treated the same in Japan trans communities as it is here. I'm not even close to an expert on transgender issues in Japan, but from what I always hear in Japan they put more emphasis on transition being a more transformative thing compared to the Western idea of matching your body, appearance and presentation to your inherent gender identity. How true or widely accepted is I cannot say. For deadnaming in particular, obviously that poo poo is still rude as gently caress because whether viewed as transformative or inherent, it's still saying yeah I don't give a poo poo about you or your identity. There was that zombie idol show that was super popular last year where it was a pretty big deal for a transgender girl character to declare her old male name as dead and gone. If anything, given how pronouns work way differently in Japanese than they do in English, deadnaming would be a way bigger deal for them than it already is in Western cultures.

There's only one evil Magypsy and it's the only cis-straight-male-presenting one of the bunch. Obviously stereotyping gender-queer people as old men in dresses is pretty garbage in terms of representation, but Mother 3 is also a game about weirdos and outcasts fighting back against jack-booted thugs who demand conformity, so I can't fault it too much. Most of the NPC dialogue about the Magypsies in the early game is about them being a bit mysterious but cool people, it's only after a time skip to when the vaguely fascist army is firmly in control that people start thinking of them as weird and gross. So basically, the Magypsies are designed to make you think "wow these guys are super weird" so it can then turn around and call you an idiot for thinking that because they're the only consistently cool people in the game while the rest of the overtly "normal" people end up perpetuating systems that harm themselves for no real reason other than because hey that's what normal means.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:I mean did he The demon tower nonsense in DMC3 probably killed some people. The city in DMC3 always felt weirdly deserted to avoid addressing this subject, though. As far as DMC5 goes, even if you consider Urizen a completely separate entity from Vergil, Urizen's creation was the explicit purpose of his whole demon/human separation business. Urizen only exists because Vergil wanted him to exist, in the exist way he exists, so I'd say Vergil is pretty culpable for everything Urizen does.

To be fair, time-traveling Josuke saving his baby self is an easy inference to make, given all the time nonsense the series gets up to. Pretty sure that's even a secret bonus scene in that 7th Stand User fan game so it's an idea that's floating around the Japanese side of the fandom as well. In retrospect it's clear the idea is it's a random stranger's act of kindness being a formative experience for Josuke, but the scene has enough ambiguity packed in that it always surprises me when the jojo thread goes all "only an idiot would think that" when the time travel theory gets floated by new readers. Like, even the anime adaptation has the random stranger's dialogue presented in silent film format just because assigning him an actual voice actor would give evidence to and against different interpretations.

my spicy hot take is that the changes to the english versions are good, because the original japanese had some real uncomfortable undertones of sexual violence in the bikini photography chapter that got undone or at the very least lessened a lot by turning it into a street fashion photography chapter instead

Bonaventure posted:REGGIE: [encounters a problem that could be solved by blocking with a shield] the whole "no, you must never use a shield, it is a crutch and makes the game boring!" thing might be my least favorite dark souls fan attitude. like, just teach people to drop the shield when you don't anticipate attacks to recover stamina and call it a day. it's like dropping a copy of bayonetta in the lap of someone who's never seen a spectacle fighter before and then tell them if they don't pick the highest difficulty they're playing the game wrong.
