Well then the obvious conclusion is that respecting women makes you better at video games.

I don’t think that’s right, I’m terrible at games but I still respect women (enough to spare them from interacting with me whenever possible. Same goes for all people really)

Nosavingthrow,

Think about how bad you would be if you hated women. You’re really skill-maxing.

as a mildly misandrist lesbian with lots of obsessive crushes:

provably not. maybe there’s a bell curve?

TwanHE,

More likely higher ranked players finally figured out that keeping harmony within your team does wonders for your chance at winning. The amount of infighting I’ve had to stop just to save my elo is insane, why would i start something just because of someone’s gender.

There is a lot of highly critical discourse around the Last Samurai. Not current, because it’s not a current movie, but saying that it’s “okay” suggests you they haven’t looked for criticism.

Also, weary.

Edit: clarity.

Edit2: I have since been made aware by @SkunkWorkz of a different perspective that makes a lot more sense, see comments below.

ka1ikasan,

Yup, Last Samourai is 22 years old. Back then a lot of social issues have not been widely discussed.

Lumidaub,

And even then, there were people who were uncomfortable with a narrative of some heroic white dude coming in to save the exotic natives. Just wasn’t a very popular opinion.

Save the natives?

Doesn’t the movie end with them all dying?

Lumidaub,
@Lumidaub@feddit.org avatar

That’s presumably the beginnings of an awareness of why that narrative is problematic. And also of the importance of historic accuracy. His role in the narrative was that of a saviour though. (Also, he survives.)

SkunkWorkz,

Yeah but it was the other side of the spectrum. It weren’t right wing racist who were mad but SJWs who didn’t see the movie and don’t understand that the word Samurai in the title is plural not singular.

Lumidaub,
@Lumidaub@feddit.org avatar

Oh you’re saying that this is about right wingers who think the Last Samurai is okay (while Ass Creed isn’t).

… That… makes sense. Huh. I hadn’t seen it that way.

Melonpoly,

It was the main reason why I never ended up watching that film.

Flemmy,

Lol as good as the production looked even as a white dude I kind of cracked up at Tommy in that role.

The Last Shogun appears to have the same thing going but idk I havn’t watched it yet.

Stovetop,

I’m not sure if The Last Shogun is something different, but if you’re referring to the Shogun series recently adapted by FX, I can say having watched it that it features a main character who fancies himself a superior white savior, but ultimately leads to realizing how completely out of his depth he is.

But it’s like the Memoir of a Geisha problem: since the original work was written by a white dude anyways, how much value does it have as a cultural work?

Tattorack,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

I thought so too in the beginning. But the English character in that series is more of a… Useful tool that gets used. He has no agency and he never realises it throughout the entire series.

HubertManne,

I recall quite a bit of people taking issue with it. Goes back further with carradine in kung fu. Plenty didn't but same with assasins creed.

RowRowRowYourBot,

In 2003? What are you talking about? The only thing we weren’t talking about by then was trans-rights.

The uncomfortable racism was noted.

Tikiporch,

I think it’s wary, not weary. Could go either way, I guess.

Many homeowners debate is vinyl soffit better than aluminum when selecting the best material for their home. Vinyl is cost-effective and requires minimal upkeep, but it may not be as durable as aluminum.

The Sun is so vast that around 1.3 million Earths could fit inside it, making it the largest object in our solar system by far. How many Earths can fit in the Sun? The Sun’s diameter is about 109 times that of Earth, and it contains 99.86% of the solar system’s total mass.

RiQuY,

Don’t get baited, they said they removed Denuvo from the Early Access, we will see what happens in the full release, if it goes out of EA ever.

Pika,
@Pika@sh.itjust.works avatar

they said it’s not in it due to restrictions on modding and hindering freedoms, I would assume they have no plans at all for having it any. ore as the rest of the post would fall apart otherwise, but yea i guess take it with a grain of salt if you like. I’m hopeful it won’t have it.

"but behaved more submissively towards players with a male voice" I want to know what they mean by submissive

Arbiter,

They got into some freaky shit in those lobbies.

thelasttoot,

They were less confrontational and more likely to accept direction

blockheadjt,

Appeal to authority. Higher-skilled male players got to call the shots, lead, delegate etc.

Joke’s on you; neither are OK. The Last Samurai is only good to those with weird exotic ideas about Samurai, Japan, and that time period.

Would be cool if there was a series about the actual French admiral that movie is based on, and all the political miandering that happened in that time.

Zanshi,

Loved the film as a kid, would be down to watch that series if it was ever created!

I never understood this mentality, myself.

Gamers: “I never get laid… 😩”

Also Gamers: “Women are just kitchen accessories.”

Worx,

I can buy a new toaster from the shop, why can’t I buy a woman too? Does this mean Gamers are pro sex-work? Or pro indentured servitude for women more likely…

Delphia,

You cant pirate pussy, and we all know how gamers feel about subscription models.

my inner engineer wants to challenge this: I know there’s a dildo company that does tours, and at least copies penises and vulvae of customers as a souveneir, im sure there are things that copy at least he surface of the vaginal canal if you want to be completionist. maybe with the right kind of 3d printer it could be done? not sure, haven’t really worked with nylon materials.

Delphia,

“yOu WoUlDnT dOwNlOaD a cUnT.”

melpomenesclevage,

genuinely do not give a shit if you download mine.

kind of concerned with how it was ever digitized in the first place, but, like, once it is, you have my blessing. or curse I guess. whichever.

Nylon? I would think this would be a ‘print the moulds we use to pour in silicone’ situation, if we’re going for usability. formlabs.com/blog/casting-silicone-guide/ On an engineering note I’m also sure I’ve seen this exact thing before, but I wonder what would improve it. Self-heating? DIY solution could be a hidden pocket for reusable handwarmers lol

melpomenesclevage,

yeah I was just kind of riffing, assuming nobody wanted to really melt down silicone in their home.

Artyom,

You might have a career as a Halo 3 e-sports pro then!

GeneralEmergency,

G*mers aren’t known for being smart.

melpomenesclevage,

yeah. all your free time is conclusions being handed to you and the illusion of agency.

and it’s not like everyone’s sitting around playing shit like ‘disco elysium’ all day.

GladiusB,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

I understand it, but I don’t think it applies.

Gamers tend to think of things as quests. A box to check off. A completionist. Getting married and having kids is part of life’s quests for many people. It’s not seen as collaboration in many ways.

andros_rex,

How does romance work in most video games? Select the correct dialogue options, memorize the correct answer to questions, give them the same gift every day?

The other main way a lot of young men “interact” with women is through porn, which is always made with a mind to what a woman would enjoy during sex…/s

pyre,

because you think of “I never get laid” as a normal human need to connect with another person, which is what it is but they’re too deep in misogyny to realize it. instead to them getting laid is a quest to complete and it involves a quest item known as a woman, not a character. so I never get laid has less of an undertone of “why can’t I connect with a woman” and more of “when will we get our government mandated sex slaves”
