They know that people not caring or being aware of them isn't going to cut it, people who are aware of it and its impacts don't want it. And since it is publicly disclosed that it's there in the game, and there are lists and curators to make that more apparent, not knowing isn't likely to be something to last for long.

So it's only natural they'd want to try and improve their image, though this little stunt definitely did not help them.

I doubt they'll ever admit it, or even look into it.

This is the case, the problem isn't that there is racial diversity or LGBTQ people, it's that a lot of AAA games are just horribly made at this point. Unfortunately I've seen quite a lot of people who miss that point and just use this as an opportunity to drop bigoted dogwhistles, and talk badly about how "LGBTQ are ruining games", both being assholes and completely missing the point.

There are cheaper and decently powerful mini PCs for about the same cost as a console, probably even a bit cheaper than a game console if you get a deal.

I would say he's being quite honest, especially considering they have one of the highest suicide rates.

There was a guy who says Lemmy.world are antisemites because they banned him for being a hateful troll.

This seems to be basically the same thing, just a different person doing it. They're saying that Lemmy.world are Nazis because they were defederated by them for their spam, hostility, and trolling and they are upset about it.

I feel like I've seen that game before but it could just be because it uses RPGmaker 2000 assets, but yeah RPGmaker horror games can get quite dark, their creators certainly like to push the limits, and not always in a good way.

It also might not be real and just a room set up for making the post.

And all because some people have a slight advantage in certain games? Forget about it. Someone always has an advantage. This was an absolutely idiotic move.

Let's be real we should know better. Microsoft isn't doing this because they "care about the community" and cheating. They're doing it so they can force controller licensing and line their pockets. If they're framing it as anti-cheat, that's because they know that it would be better accepted than saying something about "Quality", also it's well known that the gaming community has a tendency to accept practices that would be considered draconian outside of Anti-cheat when it's used as Anti-cheat and will attack those who speak out against them.

It's funny that they say that, as if they can really do anything about us and others talking about them. All they can do is shut us out, they can't shut us up.

Funny considering lemmygrad.ml isn't blocked.

Hexbears say that anyone who's against them are fascists so I'm not really surprised.

Generally I've found that Hexbears and lemmygrads think anyone who disagrees with or says anything bad about them or communism is a chud or is spreading misinformation.
