Kinda wish.
Something that's been really bothering me about this whole backlash to the violent video games thing...
Go on...
Can someone please tell me how saying that violent video games cause violent people is any more stupid than activists demanding the reduction in the sexualization of female characters in video games because it promotes the objectification of women?
theyre both stupid
Both are asserting that certain types of content cause certain types of behaviors. Why are we comfortable with one type of censorship but not the other?
it's just that one is ideologically supported by one group, and the other by another
Where have all these fucking people been?
all the sudden NOW they care about censorship in gaming
Think back when Columbine happens
Because violence is external to the offender where as identification is internal to the offender
Same evil different day.
Meanwhile the Left convinces everyone that tits in games are bad. no one cares. Say the violence in them causes people to be violent and everyone throws a fit
be consistent with your outrage!
women dressing scantily is bad because 'Muh Objectificashun"
To be fair the right hated on vg in the 90s
I get that
I'm not letting the overly religious Right off the hook
fuck them
Lol if boobs are bad In games why do we have Strip joints?
Either way. You as an individual are responsible for everything action you take
I get that, but that's not what I'm saying
is anyone else seeing the selective outrage
It’s a power move of symbolism
MK11 comes out and they've covered up all the women. When people complained everyone was like "Oh no, you don't get boobies. So sad, incel."
???
then, when they even slightly suggest reducing the violence in video games, suddenly everyone cares.
tbh MK has been all over the place
What is the MK?
compare MK 10 to 11
MK has been a clusterfuck for a long time
it's mostly just dumb that they chose to grandstand over it
Mortal Kombat
compare old MK to MK 9, 10
Now Sonya is a middle aged ugly ass lesbian
and we're just supposed to be okay with it because "progress"
I mean
attractiveness was never their strong suit anyway. Remember the manface era?
Kitana and Mileena were literally made to be fapbait
at least in art outside of the game
