Two TV projects with predominantly Black casts were nominated in this year's Golden Globes: Lovecraft Country as best drama and Amazon Prime Video's Small Axe as best limited series. Likewise, Black male actors from those projects, Jonathan Majors from Lovecraft and John Boyega from Small Axe, were nominated, along with Don Cheadle from Showtime's Black Monday and Ramy Youssef from Hulu's Ramy. But that still leaves 16 other nomination slots for male performers which all went to white guys.

PatrickMahomes posted...
But the Globes made some amazing choices in its film nominations this year. For the first time, three women were nominated for best director, including Regina King. Non-white performers like Viola Davis, Andra Day, Riz Ahmed, Chadwick Boseman, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Daniel Kaluuya all earned well-deserved nods (as did Anya Taylor-Joy, this time, for the film Emma).

so it's basically:
>gives you diversity
>"we want more diversity"

i didn't realize they were called "frictionless" games... i just called them games with good pacing.

i've become an impatient gamer myself and usually finish a text before long before the speech is finished which is why slow text also bores me.

anyways, just started crosscode and that basically fits the whole thing to a tee which has made me realize that voice acting in games accounts for a major part of slow pacing in general.

They retconned the hammer thing. Now, it's that Cap didn't want to make Thor look bad, but could definitely lift it. But before Endgame, it was more of a "kinda worthy" thing.

i'm almost 100% certain the cap scene was just meant to set up for the vision scene which was by far the best thing AoU.

after endgame though, nobody seems to remember vision's scene =(

Your first post makes seem like you have a problem with minorities.

nope.

TC claimed it made sense for the game to have really scarce resources in an apocalyptic world. i made the same claim that in that same apocalyptic world, apparently there isn't a scarcity in minorities.

it makes sense to have all of them in cyberpunk because it's a living, bustling city with tons of unique districts... in an apocalyptic world with survivors few and far between? not so much and because of this it reeks of tokenism more than anything else.

You dont remember when people got mad at a billboard?

it was probably a bit hyperbolic since i distinctly remember CDPR being criticized for handling of trans characters in the game quite a while ago.

the point is that you don't see endless pages of forum debates over it or any of its other themes dealing with minorities and it's almost as if the mere presence of them isn't even a problem.

but again "reee"

I'd say he's wrong because of goldie's comment.

pretty sure you weren't aware of that aspect since you yourself admitted ellie's relationship or sexual preference had little to do with the actual plot.

in fact that's not even close to being any of the big problems i have with the game since you responded to me responding to the picture where i focused almost entirely on the dog aspect of it and how obnoxious and manipulative ND is with their writing and design.

it's weird how any issues people bring up with the game automatically regresses back to:

So you can't? Why is showcasing a characters relationship with someone a problem, I really don't understand your argument here. It's no different then showing the Day's Gone protagonist getting married to his girlfriend.

you do realize your own example works against you, right?

that shows his motivation which makes sense to include.

showcasing ellie's relationship serves absolute nothing for the motivation or the overall plot of the game which you yourself admitted:

ask ND since they're the ones that made the first half of a trailer showcasing ellie's sexuality on full display.

And, they did market that there would be gay relationships in the game... people knew who you would be able to fuck before the game came out, they just have a hard one for CDPR which is why the game still has people saying "tis good, and fun" when it's got so many gameplay problems it makes a 2001 game look better in comparison. Git tha fuck outta here.

or you know, maybe people didn't mind the representation in the game because it actually makes sense and isn't forced on you in any shape, way or form.

no, it just "HAS" to be because people have an erection for CDPR just like you apparently have a hard-on for TLOU2, that "HAS" to be it!

Holy shit are you literally saying the fact there is a gay couple in the game at all means its pandering?

What fucking planet do you live on?

did you even read what i wrote?

nobody really cares how the gay themes are actually handled in-game when it's presented as blatantly as part of the marketing.

if you want an actual example of a game that doesn't shove its brownie point themes down your throat then look no further than cyberpunk. it has a far bigger share of LGBT characters yet isn't criticized for it in the slightest.

going back earlier she has another one from another site dated oct. 14th.

doesn't make sense as to why they would keep scenes on the "backburner" for a rainy day... then again i don't really care about the logistics of the porn business xd

edit: found another one yet from another unrelated site dated oct. 3rd

so yeah, unless they all belong to the same network or unanimously agreed to take turns and dripfeed scenes one by one, i don't see how the videos are unreleased pre-pandemic scenes.

2nd edit: ok that last one indeed turned out to be a re-release so maybe it's true of the others

i drink low sugar substitutes.

we have this nice soda substitute that tastes great with "only" 3.9g sugar per 100ml which essentially means i can drink twice the amount before it matches the average coke or whatever soda.

i'm careful not to overindulge but it definitely satisfies my cravings for flavored drinks.

i'm definitely not too keen on those 0 calorie substitutes either since i'm sure those artificial sweeteners come with a price of their own. at least i know what somewhat limited sugar intake does to my body.
