Oh yes I forgot about that as well. Funny how the Communists fought to reclaim China from a party of crazed nationalists only to become a party of crazed nationalists.

Reminds be of Shinzō Abe, prime minster of Japan 'till 2020

It should remind you of the Diet now because they still think that way. It is far easier to blame video games and gay people than to pin it on a horrible work culture and poor social security net.

Will they glow Gamer colours though?


G*mers were a fucking mistake.

Also I am not joking, this is a real thing.

I don’t understand why you keep censoring “gamer”. Isn’t everybody on this forum a gamer? I feel like I’ve completely missed the joke.

I do it because there are two types of people who play video games: People who play video games and people whose whole identity is “I play video games” and nothing else. I obviously think basing your whole personality around one singular materialistic hobby is a stupid conceit so I do it to mock the sentiment of a “Gamer” identity.

It was something I saw on the internet and I thought it would be cool to do.

Remember that time homosexuality was not seen as badly as it is today in ancient China?

I guess if someone hasn’t checked on leaks, a Whimsu made video about them. Was suprised when I saw IO Interactive’s project freelance, which he speculated to be Hitman game.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection one of the few surprises from Konami in recent memory is getting a sequel… kinda sorta.

While it hasn’t been revealed officially Castlevania Advance Collection has been circulation on Australian and Korean ratings boards for Xbox One, PS4, Switch, and PC.

The compilation will consist of the GBA Era Castlevania Titles in other words three Metroidvanias one bundle.

Castlevania: Circle Of The Moon (2001)

Taking place in 1830 , Circle of the Moon is set in one of the fictional universes of the Castlevania series. The premise of the original series is the eternal conflict between the vampire hunters of the Belmont clan and the immortal vampire Dracula.

Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance (2002)

Set fifty years after Simon Belmont vanquished Dracula’s curse, Harmony of Dissonance focuses on his grandson Juste Belmont and his quest to rescue a kidnapped childhood friend.

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (2004)

Set in the year 2035, when Dracula has been sealed away after a battle in 1999. The plot follows the journey of Soma Cruz, a teenager granted occult power as a result of being a potential vessel of Dracula’s reincarnation, as he battles dark figures that wish to inherit the undead lord’s power.

While this could be considered old news since information was circulating around the Internet back in June this recent development supports that this is releasing. With that that being said I think a tweaked version of the DS Games is almost inevitable it’s only a matter of time and I’m all for making old games more accessible. Expect this compilation to be $20 which is a fair price point for three games that average around 8 hours in length each.

I hope the DS games are released, simply because Aria of Sorrow doesn’t end even after the credits and is continued in Dawn of Sorrow on the DS which is one of my personal favorite in the series and is the final chapter of the Castlevania Series according to its continuity and timeline.

So you are thinking “Jack, how can it get any worse than the finger condoms?”. Well you have never see the $1000 Balenciaga designed Fortnite shirt or their $1300 denim jacket.

I am going to wax a little lyrical here and say “Now I call that getting swindled and pimped/Now I call that getting tricked by business”.

Dear god.

I’m sure some of this is some sneaky ploy to actually sell more of the in-game cosmetics based on these real-world items.

“Weeell~ I can’t spend $900 on a shirt, but I can spend 9.99$ on a virtual one!”

Don’t forget is a scam to get influencers to buy them. They fork over the cash then they Instagram or TikTok a stupid face or dance wearing it then make a clickbait video titled “I buy the 1000 dollar Fortnite shirt”.

But yes the other side of the coin is making the Fortnite audience by the in-game cosmetics by using the real life items as bait. Epic are being scummy on a lot of levels here, it is honestly impressive from a Mad Men/Madison Avenue standpoint.

You just wait for them to team up with the deranged Hypebeast known as Supreme.

Well you see Thor is a power fantasy for many of these people, one cultivated by artistically licensed depictions of Thor as some sort of physically ideal being. Showing the real Thor as the stout, ginger man he truly was disrupts that power fantasy.

Oh and of course you have the more reactionary Gamers who see their patchwork knowledge of Norse myths as some sort of White Power fantasy land where everyone is a Caucasian supreme being built for war and inevitable sacrifice for the fatherland. Again showing them the real Thor clashes with their ideals.
