It's hard to give the context but basically during the 2017 goty podcast, they were deciding on whether to put yakuza 0 in #10 of their Top 10 or Dream Daddy. Only 1 guy played 0 and didn't fight hard for it, but abby (a former member of GB) wouldn't shut the fuck up about this VN called Dream Daddy. She even said Dream Daddy did a lot for Dating VNs, then says in the same breath that she never played Dating VNs before lol. I also remember her whole argument was basically "But it's so good tho!" and that's it. I was so tilted listening to that I stopped watching Giant Bomb lol. It was the most brainrot shit I've ever listened to.

Its utterly ridiculous how unconcerned they are with ad content. But just the implication that you might consider talking about a boob you saw is a capital offense. It's the same with Google and how they operate Youtube. Youtube creators have so many stipulations on what they can do or say, or else they will be demonetized. Meanwhile, ad companies can do whatever they want, even if they show the same sort of content that would get creators demonetized or even banned. --- "Be good to yourself, because everyone else in the world is probably out to get you." - Dr. Harleen Quinzel <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:984903671] in Fandom ess...

It's hard to give the context but basically during the 2017 goty podcast, they were deciding on whether to put yakuza 0 in #10 of their Top 10 or Dream Daddy. Only 1 guy played 0 and didn't fight hard for it, but abby (a former member of GB) wouldn't shut the fuck up about this VN called Dream Daddy. She even said Dream Daddy did a lot for Dating VNs, then says in the same breath that she never played Dating VNs before lol. I also remember her whole argument was basically "But it's so good tho!" and that's it. I was so tilted listening to that I stopped watching Giant Bomb lol. It was the most brainrot shit I've ever listened to. Literally no one remembers that shitty VN but yakuza 0 is responsible for reviving the series from the brink of death in the US and got snubbed cuz of it. That is..... certainly a take I guess? A stupid one for sure. Like I get that she may personally enjoy it more than Yakuza but.....no. Not even the best visual novel out could or should overtake a proper video game. And I say this as a mild visual novel enjoyer. --- Wild ARMs is still the best JRPG series in my opinion and we desperately need a new game in the series! <cite>Probo93 posted [p:984903730] in Fandom ess...

It is interesting seeing a couple Reddit threads defend hornyposting. Comapred to CE where people were like fair, next glad it gone. The difference could be Reddit still had porn subs to this day so they can just search porn on their site. This site never had porn on it. Just porn games which people dont post on since you can't discuss the porn games without breaking rules. --- Hey now. <cite>BlueTigerLion posted [p:984904058] in Fandom ess...
