Chud is the Gamefaqs Approved generic insult. Even if you don't understand what the word is, calling someone a chud will typically have Gamefaqs mods look the otherway.

Baseball became a pitching paradise when they cracked down on steroids but looked the other way when pitchers were cheating. They're still are btw.

The current trend is grinding out young arms into the dirt to achieve high strikeouts and low ERA. Starters no longer pitch 6+ innings even if they're doing well. The best teams tend to have the most robust bullpens.

The issue would resolve itself if people stop buying Ubisoft shit, even if the game isn't a "game as a service".

However people continue to spend their money on it so Ubisoft is still going to keep Ubisofting. As a consumer I just ignore every game like it and if it's the fate of all video games to be like this then well I guess it's time to find a new hobby.

Error1355 posted...
So all the rage YouTubers lied when they said Square Enix and Sony are woke and hate attractive women because Tifa's breasts weren't the size of beach balls?

Ever Crisis is a gacha game. Gacha games sell predominately on sex appeal and general attractiveness. This goes especially true for series that didn't start off as gacha, like Final Fantasy 7.
Series like Fire Emblem and Atelier have had their fanservice toned down in recent official entries but when it comes to their predatory gachas, everything is literally laid bare.
Granblue Fantasy started out as a gacha, but as it branched off into other mainstream genres its fanservice was toned down a lot.

To be fair when he's actually forced to wear the beachwear he doesn't have his sword with him. That screenshot is just a normal costume change and devs are too lazy to give the outfit its own personal buster sword magnet scabbard.

I remember the silly outrage of way back when Ocarina of Time came out and people wondered how Link's sheath for his sword stayed on his back. Nintendo's "official" response was "Hyrule Velcro". Every 3D Zelda after that addressed it.

They constantly push those who are sticking around to work harder, faster, and longer all for the sake of saving corporation on labor costs.

American Football is just Sunday culture. Most people don't work on Sunday and need an excuse for everyone to get together and have a good time. Football is that excuse. It helps prop up the food and drink industry.

Watching the actual game is the worst part. Too much down time, too many time outs in the last 2 minutes of the game, and advertisements have got much worse in the last 5 years.

You're thinking about Cinemax, which used to be referred to a Skinemax for their late night movies featuring a bevy of middle-aged actresses with extreme breast implants doing phony grinding in sex scenes that were spaced every 15 minutes or so in their movies. It was its own softcore industry of sorts.
So am I the only one who used to call out their dad when you find out that Cinemax is suddenly a part of the cable package? From a movie selection, HBO blew Cinemax out of the water but had considerably less late night softcore porn. It's the cable TV version of "I swear I buy Playboy to read the articles!"
