He filmed the assault and sent it to his friend. The sexual assault of a drunk student. This isn’t imprisonment for weed possession, what the hell would a humane punishment be in this case?

Honestly if I come back as a weightless flying spirit, I’d definitely attempt aggressive breakdancing. That’s going on the kick-the-bucket list.

Nintendo saw Squeenix release Portopia and Symbiogenesis and adapted their plans

If there’s one company that doesn’t do this, with leadership criticizing layoff culture, it’s FromSoft. You can give some benefit of the doubt for this company as they have been here forever.

Admittedly their team is quite small and they do go through multiple crunch times + super stressful Japanese work culture though. The tradeoff being their employees find work ‘meaningful’ as their games are genre leaders.

I get that the stunts will draw attention to the environmental issues the activists are protesting for, but surely not pissing off the public would be beneficial in spreading a message to them?

The uninvolved public would just remember the attempted defacings, and not care about the damage being temporary or minimal.

As mentioned the sentence looks unrelated to bison and/or the city, leaving the interpretation to be ‘bully intimidate bully’ which sounds jank

Am I just overanalyzing a phrase meant to be a joke

I need a better linguist to ELI5 buffaloes

Or is this just bully bully bully

I’ll never understand the evolutionary advantage of nature developing the friendliest fluffy soft ears and putting them on a 200kg apex predator.

Jumping to conclusions on little to no evidence is a bigger red flag than a person who blindly trusts their partner when abruptly shaken awake.

Maybe it’s been all the terrible news lately, but every now and then nonsense news like this just brings a smile to my face

Statistics for civilian to combatant death are like 9-1 and 7-1, there’s having no choice and then there’s committing warcrimes out of convenience. Bibi says its juuust 2-1, so according to him the majority of Hamas combatants are women and children right?

You know, we’d have better and more accurate statistics about casualties on the ground if the IDF weren’t actively trying to keep a journalist/aid worker kill high score too. You don’t have to support Hamas or the Palestinians but please don’t try to justify the IDF’s actions.

TIL we have a national breed

It’s probably intentional though, Bibi wants to prolong the conflict to stay in power. It was the main reason he got elected back then after all.

This is gonna be super offtopic: Diablo 4 was fine, I didn’t bring it up and only specified Immortal for a reason. If only the latest iteration of an IP counts, then I should have said OW2, but I mentioned Immortal because it was so terrible. It IS especially predatory even for a handphone game, worse than the final fantasy ones, Maple, PoGo etc. An actual fun app with it’s progression covered in so much monetization that f2p players can literally never catchup to payers, with gambling systems that can cost up to several thousands. Don’t take us ‘naysayers’ at our word, go ahead and invest your time into it if you’d like. People complain about OW2 mtx but it doesn’t even come close to how bad Immortal gets.

Still, I get your point as to why it’s better to have some nuance on this kinda thing and not hop on corpo hate trains.

They do something similar in the first Nioh game, but the main character didn’t stand out in a world covered in half demons and spirits that all look way weirder than a foreigner with pale skin. Whatever locals they met were mostly dead or fleeing from monsters and the xenophobic culture bits were mostly brushed aside.

That being said I don’t think Team Ninja enjoyed the online controversies that happened from making a white guy the main character in Nioh. Nioh 2 went back to having a Japanese half yokai as the lead. I’d wait to see if Ubisoft is capable of making an interesting story out of the foreigner in old Japan premise.

I’m not for gatekeeping but I can understand the pushback in this case. People had the same argument for Bethesda horse armor in the past and it’s gradually been abused to stuff like day 1 dlc and Diablo IP becoming a predatory mtx handphone game. At some point if you don’t voice concerns over Ubisoft delisting games (the crew) or $100+ pricing bundles, you shouldn’t be surprised if Ubi opts to mess with previously beloved IPs for a quick buck.

It’s great that you love indies and all but shaming other people for being frustrated at Ubi’s business practices is no better than gatekeeping people for liking their new games.
