I did the same thing almost a year ago. The feeling is amazing.
Feels like being 10 again - no responsibilities, total freedom - until of course your ass finds a job.

Enjoy the freedom while it lasts - (unless mommy and daddy are okay with you leeching off off them)
Regardless - take it easy for a bit!

Already found myself a job, starting in September.

Best of luck m8! Until then, do some blow and weed.

b.old was hype af

b.next was somewhat cool

the second big update was atrocious and intolerable

I can't even post anywhere because I didn't waste money on their shit game. Literally a paywall - ON AN OFFTOPIC FORUM!

gg, no re

Really liked it.
Sad that they didn't have anything on H6 but hey, Forza looked great, BF1 is like the FPS highlight this year.
Custom controllers is dope - hope its not US exclusive though.
X1 S looks dope
Scorpio got me hyped.
Papa Carmack blessed us with his presence
The new social features on LIVE are cool
an 8/10 for me.

No waffle - was to the point and no TV or COD nonsence.

My first post was in a circle-jerk thread. Three years later - nothing changed.
Summary of The Flood 2010 edition


+ Circle jerk thread
+ Circle jerk thread
+ Forced unfunny cancer meme thread
+ Thread title is a lyric of a song - lol I'm so random
+ Attention grabbing triggering title
+ Circle jerk thread, the title of which mentions a specific user
+ Personal life drama thread - probably about how you don't have enough grey matter to make an obvious choice and drink that bleach
+ Actual thread with discussion value that is not a circle jerk - one user references some event that happened like 2 months ago with a different user and turns it into a circle jerk.
+ Loaf threads - probably steals thread ideas from his edge-lord 9 year old atheist brother

Sure story is ass, but I think H5 proves that gameplay is more vital than story. Its just fun to play.

Yeah, fuck those guys who spend money and tim on buying and watching/ reading EU content to get a more fulfilling experience from the story! Who cares about following up on plotlines and characters that have been set up for half a decade or more? Just buy more REQ(tm) Packs and stop being such a casual amirite?

Well I did say that story is ass and in no way am I excusing the horrendous cliché that 343 delivered after such a very well executed build-up.
But don't judge the game just by one part of it - H5 is a complete package with a very good MP component and a Forge mode that is superb.
If people can put down 60 $ for an MP only game like Battlefront or over 100 $ for Cut Content Simulator (Destiny), I don't see why H5 doesn't deserve a few bucks.

Age is just a number.

So what exactly would a real egalitarian do to accomplish their goal?  Sounds exactly like an #AllLivesMatters kid, who defensively bitches on internet forums and Facebook at anyone who points out a problem, without actually doing or offering anything themselves.

Also, I like how the self-proclaimed egalitarian also started off with "pffft women have nothing left to bitch about except 3D models".  Yup.  Nothing left.

You know, if you are concerned about things that happen in video games - then clearly you don't have real problems.

People who complain about women in video games, DO NOT REPRESENT ALL WOMEN. Do you think Syrian women give a single half of a fuck about what women wear in vidya? Yeah, that's right - they have real problems.

I don't have a witty comeback to this.

How is sexualized characters negative again?

Because sex is disgusting, loathsome, and vile. Biologically, its only function is to produce children, which is terrible in and of itself--but the fact that we have become so obsessed with it as a society is a mark of shame on all of humanity. It's a perverted, childish degeneracy that speaks nothing of our intelligence, but everything that makes us suck as a species. The fact that we allow our minds to be SO overcome by a pair of breasts or a few rigid bumps on the stomach just makes us so crass, so superficial, and so stupid, it's an absolute affront to anything with nuance or intellectual merit.

If anything, the only justification to have our carnal desires represented in art is to showcase just how horrifically abhorrent it is. How much it controls us, how addicted to it some of us are, and especially how the cravings for it can turn even the most reasonable person on Earth into a perniciously concupiscent pig. It's like a drug.

Beyond that, it has no place in art, in my eyes. Let alone video games. I see no beauty in it whatsoever. It is, without question, the #1 thing that disgusts me the very most about the human race. The fact that we're so obsessed with shoving our piss organs into each other as a bizarre expression of affection. Because kissing just isn't good enough.

Sexuality should be shunned, not celebrated.

You could say it makes women feel worse about themselves or something similar, in that regard I could say the same for male characters. Usually someone will always say it's different for males because it makes them feel empowered, I don't understand this logic.

That's not what I would say. I would agree with you--Men are also sexualized, and that's also a problem. Two wrongs don't make a right. The point is, they're not sexualized as much. The short end of the stick goes to women, because they are sexualized far more often, and in more gratuitous, yet increasingly socially-acceptable, ways. I want it ALL dismantled.

Quote

Why is it empowering when we have sexualized males but empowering to females?

Empowerment is not the issue.

Because sex is disgusting, loathsome, and vile.

The only people who care so much about sex - are the ones not getting enough of it. Literally nobody else cares.

Not meant to be a roast mate, just sayin'.

In summary - embrace art as the artist envisioned it. And if you do not like it, critique it but do not say that something is bad because YOU did not like it because you did not see yourself in that piece.

What is the point of a critique if nothing is allowed to be changed?

To feel smug and good about yourself.
Entitled to opinion [check]
Entitled to creative control [nope]

Even if you're able to convince the developer of their wrongdoing?

There is no wrong-doing unless it breaks gameplay. Everything else it up to them. If they listen to you and realise that the suggested change would improve their wok - great! But if they are pressured into submission by the community - that is simply toxic.
