He's one of the few celebrities i can admit to liking without feeling like a dipshit

Sorry this is new to me, are people complaining about Tati Gabrielle being in a game and not being hot enough? The hot girl from The 100 and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina?

What the fuck are we talking about here?

Oh it’s just racism again isn’t it

Her hair's too dang short!!!!!!!1 frothingfash

[–] Darth_Reagan@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Short hair and racism. If she had a more feminine cut and less melanin the complaining would be toned down a bunch. Thing is, people are upset about Ciri in the W4 despite her being white and long haired, so who knows. I think they just hate women.

Yeah it's racism. Look at any of those "woke politics destroying games" lists and it's mostly just black women being prominent characters in any way

I kinda figured that the joke was they're replacing a hot woman with Danny. Is this the actual person online dorks are mad about??

started-blasting honestly, we need more DeVito lookin' protagonists

Bring us more funny little freaks. I want to be more weirdo freak guys. Not just as the comic relief, but as the main damn character.

Bring back Wario Land you fucking cowards!

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Man, I spent some serious time 100%ing Wario Land 2 on my Game Boy

And I was a broke kid with no internet, I couldn't look up all the secrets, I had to find them with lateral thinking

I'd buy any game that lets me play as Danny DeVito.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Bayonetta should have a level were you play as her New Yorker pal. (Maybe it does, I've only watched people play it.)

i get the joke but at the same time, whenever this sort of joke happens in reaction to chuds I can't help but feel like it misses the mark cos they'd actually prefer something like this - if for nothing else than because it denies a woman of colour from having a leading role. Like if we're being real, sexy is just code for white and thin, emphasis on the white in a case like this

wtf he's cancelled

[–] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago

This would be hilarious if they added him as a skin, but kept her voice. I feel like that would piss them off even more.
