is... is it helpful that you can marry a skeleton princess who stuffs or an elf princess?
and can play politics too while riding your jetpack wielding dragon?


Are these princesses actually capable or do they literally just exist for sex which may or may not be willing.

Because one-dimensional is boring

There is nothing on the planet that could prevent me from being happy right now. Misandric 'feminism' has zero control on my life, my ability to freely move to different countries should speak to that.

I don't agree with this. If someone is ignorant you should try to correct their ignorance. A better reason would be 'that person in particular is not worth responding to as they won't learn anything'.

I think its not that it took off that bothers people, its the level to which it did and how quickly it did.

Why should this bother you? If a group of people think that it's a topic worth topic about, then they can donate whatever they want. On paper 80k for a youtube series is silly, but it represents that there are people out there that do want to see it happen.

newbie has you trumped on probably every intellectual facet, so if you're lumping me in with him I am probably doing something right.

uh, he's smarter than me at some things that he specializes in, yes. just like most people who specialize in something are smarter than the average person at that thing. don't let his overbearing attitude intimidate you into thinking he's smarter than he really is. there's a lot of stuff he doesn't know jack**** about and still tries to talk about it like an expert.

additionally, for as much as he knows, he is awful at applying that knowledge to real world discussions in meaningful ways other than showing off factoids that he knows that the common person wouldn't know.

unfortunately for you, though, I wouldn't even put you on his level. just making a similar comparison between when you can clearly tell a discussion is going nowhere and put an end to it before wasting any more energy trying to argue with someone who isn't going to contribute anything meaningful to a discussion.

okay so i googled dragon commander roar lasers.
found this:

http://www.gameinformer.com/games/dragon_commander/b/xbox360/archive/2011/08/18/of-course-you-should-strap-a-jetpack-to-your-dragon.aspx

The gameplay is based around making the player feel as awesome as possible. The jetpack strapped to your back allows you to cross kilometers in the blink of an eye, or circle your prey so fast that its swiveling turrets can’t keep track of your blurred form. The rough UI I saw at my Gamescom demo had four slots for equipping special powers mapped to a 360 controller’s face buttons, with limited quantities of Imp Cannon shots (basically nukes that can one-shot anything in the game) and the dragon roar that vaporizes all smaller craft within a kilometer. The developer demonstrating the game launched the basic breath attack, a superheated plasma blast that melts steel, nonstop as he tore apart enemy fleets.

estimated date is Q1 2013 for PC, 360 they want to do (Divinity 2 was on 360), and PS3 is 'who knows' tier.

oh don't worry, i will consistently annoy and remind you that game exists between now and its release.

by then maybe you'll be able to get a PC capable of playing it. then you'd probably have a PC powerful enough to team up for their other game (Divinity Original Sin) and we can strategize about how to loot all the NPC in a town by either you or me distracting them while the other jacks them like a bandit.

Feminists can't handle emphasis being placed on beauty in females.

More news at eleven.
her issue - as with most feminists, if I can generalize - isn't physical beauty or sex, and I'm not sure how you could come to this conclusion unless you completely ignored her video, summary, or context of the images. no sane person - and no, feminists aren't insane, stop trying to demonize them - cares about 'just' beauty or sex. sarkeesian will focus on how sex is the defining characteristic for many females in games (and i'm sure she'll focus on many other areas, as her video lays out). it's nauseating, sure, but not for the reasons you're implicating.

it'd be kinda neat if she used this to fund some small little game that deconstructs some misogynist stuff or whatever.
Someone tried to do that earlier this year with JRPGs, but the project was horribly misguided. the creator of that kickstarter later insulted Tim Schafer and backers of DFA as being part of the problem, or something.
