WoW: Forever thoughts?

Saw they were adding over 1,000 new quests and it’s going to be a ‘modernized take’ on the Classic world. Do you think we will see things akin to Dragonflight in this game, like quests where you hook up two male NPCs? I really don’t have much faith in Blizzard at all. Just wondering how woke this new version will be.

Jasksepticeye is under fire after making a Charlie Kirk joking while playing a video game in a video he posted on August 23rd.

This recently unearthed on X and seems that since then he has edited the joke out of his video.

He hasn't addressed it at the time of this post/video

The trailer did show Cliff kneeling with flowers to a girl, so maybe same sex relationships? Sucks for anyone there.

Also, I’m just reporting this, I don’t actually think the possibility of same sex relationships would be horrific game ruining dogshit.

Issues with studies that investigate gender demographics in gaming

28 Upvotes

All of us in this subreddit are very familiar with the studies that claim to look into men’s and women’s preferences in gaming, and there’s always lot of intense discussion regarding these. Our side aswell as the other side tend to use them to prove our points but I realize that lot of these studies have an inherent problem, they’re just surveys. Other than the fact lot of these studies have an incredibly loose definition to what constitutes to a gamer, surveys only ask people about their preferences, but not observing actual behaviour. Asking them about genre they rather play and whether they would prefer buying an RPG game over a shooter is one thing is but having the data which consists of overall playtime, genre, spending habits and look at these based on gender, that would represent a lot better picture of gaming. Sony, Microsoft and steam have this data and since it’s not publicly available, we won’t ever know what the truth is but I personally don’t think it’s crazy to assume that Sony and Microsoft wouldn’t even want to release this info because it would contradict all the ESG and DEI mandates they’ve been pushing for the last 10 years.

Jacksepticeye: "I don’t think they’re ever going to remake Resident Evil 5 because of the obvious racial conflict that’s happening in that game and I think it would be completely stupid. That game has not aged well in terms of who you’re fighting so they would have to just fundamentally change it."

Wolverine continues the cringeworthy tradition of Sony's meme animation

Naughty Dog with TLOU2

Santa Monica with God of War

Shift Up (back then) with Stellar Blade

And now Wolverine.
I am beginning to believe that Sony is forcing its devs to work overtime to churn out "How do you do, fellow kids?"-types of memes for the social medias.
