i'm hardly a "gamer"

40862
Who dictates that?
Me. Feel free to disagree with me, I don't care. But that's my personal interpretation.

Also, I guess I'm supposed to say a game is trash, since the launcher that allows me to adjust the resolution of the game to something I can see is its own .exe, hence "not inside the game itself".
I would say the resolution of the game is inside the game itself, yeah. You can fucking see it, with your eyeballs, on the screen.

I wouldn't call developers idiots or bad at their jobs for giving tools like those to the public. I'd say that they don't have their heads lodged up their asses, since they're not believing that their art is perfect, not improvable, must stay pure, and must be looked at the same way by everyone.  Maybe those developers aren't pissed, because those modders show how the game inspired people to try and make their own art, using the game engine that the team's programmers slaved over.
Okay.

I don't care what you'd say. I obviously disagree.

40863
Explain how it's garbage. This should be a laugh.

40864
It's arguable that the Creation Kits that developers like Bethesda release to the public are just as much an "actual part of the game", regardless of the fact that it's a separate program.
It has to be inside of the game itself to be part of the game.

Also, please respond to the rest of my post.
There was nothing to respond to.

The mod article he linked for KoTOR 2 is a restoration mod. That mod adds content to the game that was cut. Some of the content that was cut was major story elements like the HK factory.
So why the fuck was it cut in the first place?

Here's a solution: Don't cut out important parts of the game.
Don't have the community do your fucking work for you.

Now I hate the modding community even more.

You want through the whole game having the HK droids trying to kill you and you tried to find out where they came from. With the mod you are able to to that.
Shouldn't have been cut out in the first place.

Then for the other mods they ended up being their own game. Mods like Team Fortress and Counter-Strike ended up becoming their own games.
And they're both godawful.

So would you say people piss all over Halo whenever they use Forge mode, in order to make maps that are better than the vanilla ones?
No, because Forge is an actual part of the game.

40867
for having a different opinion than you; got it

40868
except i can explain precisely why i like EVERYTHING i like in excruciating detail

so, no

there is absolutely no irony

40869
Pariah would be an understatement, this is a little bit like Jack Thompson praising Mortal Kombat but ehh at least it's positive.
I think it's more like Jack Thompson praising a game that, you know, doesn't have any violence in it, showing that a game doesn't have to have violence in it in order to be fun, or whatever. Not that anyone contests that.

The good thing about this new series is that it seems to be, as pointed out in the OP, feeding some of the detractors who say that all she does is bitch and moan, instead of providing what she considers to be a good example of a female hero.

Well, she's doing that now--and she did it rather well, if you ask me.

40870
because they think i'm trying to impose my opinions on everyone else, and say that because i don't like mods, that means no one else can like mods either

even though i've never said anything remotely similar to that in my life

what i do is question people for their interests
if you like something, you should be able to explain precisely why, and if you can't, then you're just... not very smart

and when i point out that truth to people, they get butthurt

so basically, they're crybabies

40871
Judging by the endcard, it looks like the next episode will feature Jade, from Beyond Good and Evil.

Gaming / Anita Sarkeesian - Positive Female Characters in Video Games
« on: March 31, 2015, 02:56:27 PM »
YouTube


This new series appears to be what a lot of Anita's detractors have been looking for--instead of complaining about poor examples of female representation in video games, this series is about celebrating female characters that aren't damsels in distress, aren't sexualized, and aren't objectified by any other means.

I recognize that she's sort of a pariah in the gaming community, but regardless, I've always enjoyed her videos, and this Tropes vs. Women series she's been doing is my favorite in her repertoire--if not just because it's funny seeing so many people get pissed off over her opinions.

I don't really see how anyone can fault her for this particular series, however.

40873
if the developer doesn't care about their own artistic integrity or their intellectual property, then whatever, have at it

but i won't respect that developer as an artist, and i probably won't play their games

40874
So, my question is. If somebody is inspired enough to put that effort in to mod a game, whether it be for something simple, or whether it's really thorough and well done.

What's wrong with that?
some graffiti art takes a lot of time and effort to make, and the end result is often beautiful

but it's still graffiti--it's vandalism

it's a little more acceptable for video games in the sense that everyone is entitled to use their own copy of the game for whatever purpose they choose

i'm just saying that i don't personally approve of it
if i was a game developer, and people were putting shit into my game that wasn't intended to be there, i would be offended

because they're not playing the game how i intended it to be played--they're ruining my art for their own entertainment

I spent some time, but nothing appeared. So I got tired and quit.
What I noticed about it is that it actually saves your progress, so you can come back to it and start from where you left off. Unless you deleted your cookies, I guess.

I would like to think that most of these are fake, but only because I don't want to believe that men would actually be stupid enough to hire guitar players and even go on public television just to propose. Those poor women. I can't imagine how mortifying that would be to have some dumbass propose to me like that.

And then you'll go to the ends of the Earth to derail those threads should anyone dare to challenge you.
"Don't respond to people who disagree with you and want to engage you"

shitty definition of "derail" right there
I think it's safe to say that nobody wants to engage with you.
Then stop, genius.

DON'T engage with me. Otherwise, it's YOUR fault for "derailing" the thread.

As you stated a few months ago, you refuse to ignore threads you don't like. You've literally acknowledged that to be the case.
...AND?

If I were to stop posting in threads about subjects that I don't like, I would barely ever post.
I like arguments. I like discussion. I HATE circlejerks.

I think everyone on this forum would agree that you're liar and yes, that is exactly who you are.
Well, not much else I can say to that but, fuck you. That's not true.

If I thought I was right about everything, I wouldn't waste my time arguing with people on the Internet, would I?
Of course you would. Simply ignoring us would make too much sense.
"don't use forums for discussion

that makes too much sense"
