Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

@Andreyich Oh look, a political discussion with no memes.

Guess it does happen.

Ryder isn't really a blank canvas though. Unlike Shepard whose past was intentionally vague, Ryder is coming in with an unchanged occupation, background, and slew of family issues. Ryder is a painting that's three quarters finished and you're just slapping colors on there because it's due tomorrow.

@Fabricant451

And still manages to be a boring guy/girl, the writers dropped the ball just admit it.

And my Shepard's background wasn't vague, butcher of Torfan who ran with a gang back on earth. Bad-ass violent working class squad leader with a chip on his shoulder and a boner for quarians (yes I was one of those). Saying Shepard's appeal was all about being bad-ass really sells the character short, there is certainly no shortage of tough grizzled mercenary bad-asses who are so forgettable we would both struggle naming them. The dialogue was genuinely better in all games in the trilogy over Andromeda, so were the characters (mostly). Shepard was a more interesting person in a more interesting world with more interesting interactions. In a space opera RPG these things matter a hell of a lot.

The Alt-Right's anti-semitism is autistic.

@Andreyich

I think eugenics is pretty autistic yes, but generalisations do have their purpose and use.

@Andreyich

I'm an autistic bastard who's too easy too bait.

I mean, I agree with him especially the parts about social media exaggerated things and people started thinking things like CrowbCat's video or whatever selectively edited thing was indicative of the game as a whole. Was there some bad dialog? Yes, absolutely. But then name one BioWare game that doesn't have dialog that misses. People made a huge stink over shit like "My face is tired" as if that was the entire game or else they turned to the initial flirting with Suvi as a sign that the dialog was all cringe 'Tumblr shit' completely failing to understand that Ryder isn't badass space soldier man Shepard but is literal space nerd young twenty-something who, at the time, is basically bumbling around in a position she wasn't at all trained or qualified for and now there's a cute girl complicating things. Granted it was still kind of embarrassing but that was kind of the point.

@Fabricant451

I mean you could take out the face is tired memes, the numerous glitches, and the questionable staff
and the game still has a fuck ton of issues. Again we can all agree that a good deal of the backlash was unjusitified, but there are plenty non red pilled MRA/MGTOW Anti SJWs who disliked the games for functional reasons.

And Ryder wasn't unlikable because he/she wasn't an unstoppable badass like shepard, Ryder was unlikable because he/she was a bland person thrown into a neutered version of the ME world surrounded by a bunch of mostly bland characters and the absolute worst sub-star trek villains you could think of. You cant blame all of this on MRA backlash.

I get that the main character is supposed to be a blank canvas, but when the game gives you nothing to paint on that canvas apart from a small selection of poorly written rookie tropes, it will reflect badly on the big picture.

Mildly in this context must mean "like, barely at all"

Request a title change to "Memely political"?

@Dark Wind

This thread is about 40% politics 40% shitposting about politics and the politics of video games and movies and 20% memes which is just about what I want/expect. Also considering that a good chunk of you have spent your last 12 posts in here, I guess that's how you like it too.
