Ladies and gentlemen, this is why our system of society is so ****ed up. Anytime it's not a white man that's straight and hearing (yes, I'm adding hearing because of audism since I'm deaf. If you're curious about this word, I'd suggest you look it up because it's worth knowing about), there's always something that ends up with a -ism. The barriers, the judgments, etc they all need to be down. Even though we've been doing it for years and it haven't succeeded yet, I have a good feeling it will when the time is right and everyone get off their high horse donkey *** for once


LET'S END THE OPPRESSION PEOPLE!
You're deaf? That sucks, my mother's got very bad hearing because of domestic violence but if that sucked, I can't imagine how bad it would be if she wear deaf. Major respect for you man

Wait, why the hell is feminism being talked about when we can still hype over the Direct yesterday. Especially since we haven't had one in 5 months previous to the direct?
I thought you were Groose...

I'd say hentai games don't sell cause they're appealing to a niche society and the enjoyment of porn is taboo in the west.

That said, some of the best selling games on steam were porn games. Or so I heard. Thus proving, that if people can get away with it discreetly, they'll do it.

Don't forget that the porn industry is one of the biggest on Earth.

Anyway, that doesn't address controversy, but iirc, my point was addressed in Game Theory, sec....

That's my point. There's more to mass success than controversy.

So here's a quick question.

Do you think future Smash DLC will be 100% third parties, and why? And would you approve of it?

Just gathering opinions.
Yes. In my honest opinion it makes sense for DLC to go with 3rd parties.Sells to the bigger demographic and as @PushDustIn said earlier its easier to get contracts for DLC than main game.I mean if you were marketing a product would you get the celebrity everyone knows to advertise it. Or the the B-/C tier celebrity that the bigger audience don't even know

I'm actually surprised we haven't seen a higher quality of :4cloud:'s official artwork render yet.

I want to make a roster icon of him but I'm not satisfied with the current ones.

Oh, Smashboards alerted me of this
Screenshot_2015-11-13-19-28-01-1.png

This is new, I never received one of these when a character was added
:4cloud: Now let's hope Miss Cloud joins the battle as well
Which reminds me
We only saw two of his costumes, there are still other 6
I wonder how they're going to be

I can't stand any type of brown bread

The texture of it really irritates my mouth

It's got like little seeds or something all through it

While, yeah, he's an icon without a doubt, Master Chief can't just get in because Cloud did. There are other barriers.

The first is the obvious no-realistic-firearms rule. While yeah, there's lots of Halo weapons that use lasers, and even things like the energy sword, but Chief's single most iconic weapon is an assault rifle. It's not even like taking away Snake's handgun either...it's integral to the character, really.

The other, big reason is that there's a huge difference between adding in a third party character from a third party eastern company whose series (but not his game) was huge on Nintendo consoles, and adding in a character who is a first party character for a rival company who has never even had his series on a Nintendo console (which despite not being a rule, it's something to consider) from a western company who uses realistic firearms. Hell, is Halo even that big in Japan, considering that X-Box consoles aren't the hottest sellers there?

I mean I love Chief as much as the next guy, but don't act like he doesn't have a LOT more barriers than Cloud...

Cloud getting in =/= anyone can join.

I'mma be honest if :4cloud:doesn't bring Tifa, Barrett, and Sephiroth with him as Mii costumes I'm gonna wonder what the heck Sakurai is thinking.

Yeah, Aerith is super iconic herself and should get repped as well, but those three literally perfectly represent each Mii Fighter class.

Are the alerts saying DLC stuff is available new? Id dont remember it for Roy/Ryu.

I'd put Cloud in my posts if I could smashboards. But I cant. because Purple > Blue and free stuff < having to pay

EDIT this is why you read every page before posting

Aerith has the most iconic death in gaming lol. I don't think this is just a joke either

I understand some situations and that there's some major possibilities but man I'm kinda believing that :4cloud:might be the only third party newcomer and character.


The rest is a veteran and a newcomer.

But I do have a theory, remember that there was 2 extra slots with :4feroy:&:4ryu:. Those two slots were probably Cloud and another fighter planned and the final slot that was added a month ago was related to the ballot

That's my point. There's more to mass success than controversy.
But porn isn't exactly controversial, it's just taboo.

Everyone does it, but in secret.

"If feminism is about X, why have certain individuals affiliated with a complex and broad movement been hypocritical?"

For someone who criticizes other's use of bad logic, you seem to be privy to using cherry-picking. Cherrypicking using the dailymail, no less. The feminist argument regarding divorce/custody as far as I've seen is something along the lines of this;

"It's assumptive to say one gender (women) are better at child-rearing that men. It's a decades-old sexist notion that assumes that women are meant for child-rearing and men are the ones who are supposed to work."

...The argument being that "patriarchy", namely social standards set by men, oppress women and set unrealistically high expectations or responsibilities on all men, and lash out when men/women don't conform to these standards.

But yeah, sure, some idiots affiliated with feminism are dumb, so that's what all of feminism is like. Props, m83.




take your fedora, pack it up to the cheetomobile, and go back to le reddit
>reddit...

Haha, dude, that place sucks.

Anyway, it was just a joke, so chill out. That aside, it's a true story. Still, that's more on the lighter side, I've said waaaaaayyy more ****ed up stuff to girls simply cause it gets them turned on, I'd post images, but the fowl language would probably give the mods the excuse they want to ban me.

Still, I don't tip fedoras I'm afraid. In fact, I'm far from your stereotypical nerd, sorry to disappoint. :p

Anyway, going out . We'll continue this feminism talk some other time, or not, considering a lot of people got butthurt. :p

That's not a joke. She's easily the most iconic death in gaming. I can't think of one that really measures up to hers.

I just doubt she'd look good as a Mii Swordsman. It's really the only class that'd make sense for her.
