   Don't let this war in the middle east and ukraine distract you from what anita sarkeesian is up to.

     @Zerglingman @Moon I think it's a little dishonest to claim this is all because of the JQ. There's certainly a decent part that is Jewish in nature, but not all of it.

     @Zerglingman @anonymous @Moon I really felt this with last few big releases, bald durrs gate, starfield especially and even the new cyberpunk dlc. Feels like a completely different writer for phantom liberty (Johnny silver hand says fucking "nothing burger") and never being able to kill the evil corpo jews in starfield is just a bit too on "The nose"
     Machismo repeated this.

     @mousewaffen @anonymous @Moon I don't even know what goyslop is coming out. I care about Soldak Entertainment, Hanako Games and Unbroken Hours.

     @mousewaffen @Zerglingman @Moon I'm going to be honest I haven't played a major release seriously in years. Last was Dying Light 2 and the lack of upgrade to the overall gameplay but the neverending stream of black and brown skin, dreadlocks and colored hair turned me off almost immediately.

     @Zerglingman @anonymous @Moon nobody ever played invisible war but one unique thing that game did was it didn't force your hand despite it's length.
     
     Unlike the first Deus Ex you can actually play as the standin for unatco the whole game iirc.

     @anonymous @mousewaffen @Moon @Zerglingman Remnant II was pretty good.
     You start the game with a strong black woman who don't need no man, who is always saving you, who is constantly spewing 'funny' racial commentary, jokes about a paradise run by "an old white guy", who is clearly dying.
     You think: she's grating, but she's going to die. Heh, they're really going with that?
     Then she doesn't die. Then you check the forums and see that she turns into a radio operator who spews 'funny' racial commentary at you for THE ENTIRE REST OF THE GAME

     @apropos @Moon @Zerglingman @mousewaffen It reminds me of the radio in Fallout whatever the fuck edition from back in the 360 days, or the radio stations from Vice City, but 100x more faggotry.

     @Zerglingman @Moon @anonymous The problem with IW of course, is that the game was designed around the 64mb barrier of the original Xbox, as opposed to the first which was a very heavy game when it came out originally to the point it not only struggled on many PCs but could infamously fill up your hard drive. It's worse with Deus Ex mods because you can have save file folders into the gigabytes due to how the game would save copies of the maps for each save file. This led to probably the worst problem with Deus Ex IW: the maps were no longer big and sprawling but like in the PS2 port; cramped with load areas to fit within a low RAM ceiling.
     
     The other issue with the story was a bit harder; they tried to make a sequel to a game with 3 widely different endings so the premise with IW was to combine parts of all 3 endings into the game and then go forward so many years.
