@gollumb82 I seriously have zero issue labeling you or anyone who is intolerant of the trans community and this is intolerance . Going out of your way to post in a game forum about how you don't like people coming out in anyway that makes them feel accepted is intolerance.
This thread caught my eye because of the experience I shared earlier. This has a positive effect on a dear friend. You made a comment because you simply don't like people coming out in a public forum. I feel perfectly ok with the reasoning behind my posts . I'm going to be blunt. I find it disgusting that you are perfectly fine with your reasoning. I guess have fun with fighting the good fight of speaking out against people who choose to come out in anyway that makes it easier for them.
@gollumb82 wow. No sarcasm at all in my next statement . You are willfully ignorant then if you don't understand any of this .
As far as your free speech comment, why does the right or people with views similar to yours always resort to the free speech comment? I didn't say you can't voice your opinion. This website didn't say you can't voice it. That being said this website has every right to block or remove you for any reason that they see fit. None of that has occurred though so why bring up fre speech . The topic of free speech has nothing to do with this thread yet you made it part of your arsanal . I don't get that mentality.
I do find it comical when people grow uneasy or uncomfortable about this or any other topic. You know what I do when I see a headline I'm not interested in or are offended by? I don't read the article. Gasp I know! So difficult. If you need emotional support if you go through something so traumatic I can inform you on how to do it in one easy step. You may need a therapist to handle the aftermath but with enough help I'm sure you all can do it. I believe in all of you!
@gollumb82 I will blame ignorance on your reply. That isn't an attack. There are plenty of topics I was and still am ignorant on. Part of the journey for anyon who is trans is acceptance . The fact is , this country is far from accepting when it comes to this topic. The more people are exposed to it the easer it will be for society to accept it. It's that simple. I can use examples in history where this is true but I don't want my response to go on and on.
Now I'm going to get a lil deeper here. You obviously haven't had a trans friend or relative commit sucide due to the stress of either coming out and being or not being accepted or beat within an inch of their life for being trans. I have . This all stems from acceptance or the lack there of. Trans people have a fear of coming out due to the very things I said. Taking coming out to the public forums brings awareness. My daughter's best friend is going to college to be a game designer. We got a call from our daughter stating that her friend literally came out today to her because of this person's tweet. If you fail to see the impact that something like coming out publicly can effect younger men, women and non binary after what I told you, then that is willful ignorance. That I do have issue with .
I think we may be seeing some info on something similar to a dual sense controller . I know a lot of Microsoft fanboys poopoo on it but developers and PS5 owners say it's a game changer. Microsoft even had a survey done asking if the community would be interested in one.
I see your point. When its treated as an incentive to purchase something ....lackluster would be the word I am looking for.I dont really pay much attention to marketing these days. Im not sure how big of a deal it is.
Devils advocate to my previous post; while its strange for me to say , I can see this as taking advantage of the die hard Sea Of Thieves fans. I was heavily ino WoW and there are complitionists who have to collect everything. I will addmit , emotes rub me the wrong way too. I think its ok to have emotes under a paywall if that paywall is in game currency or achievements . It feels a bit shady when the only what you can obtain emotes is by paying real world money. "Look at me, I got this cool emote and i have it and you dont because I boight a 60 dollar controller" Whike no one is forcing us to spend money it still feels wrong.
@ThanosReXXX apologies for the snarky reply. I was in a mood yesterday . The issue I have is, why does there have to be the added value? The added value is the different color scheme . Depending on where you get the controller , it's either 5 dollars more or the exact cost. That is the norm for multicolored controller. What they are giving us is literally free. Not to mention , it is added value to some Sea of Thieves players. I think the complaint would be warrented if this controller was actually closer to 100 dollars like you falsely stated.
Maybe I would better understand this if you told me what you think they should give us for free to give this value?
There is ignorance in this comment "I mean, if there’s no games that makes no sense. Doesn’t matter, you know?" This week alone I was able to play Medium, Control and Star Wars : Fallen Order. Not to mention I also got to try out some indie games. I liked Spiritfarer so much , I ended up supporting them by buying it on the Switch. All of these games make sense to me. What Xbox Game Pass does is, it gives me access to AAA games that I couldn't afford to support in the past and it lets me try out indie games that I end up supporting .
If Microsoft went the same route as Sony I honestly don't think I would have bought a Series X. This is by far my favorite generation of consoles. All 3 companies are giving us something different. If it was all more or less the same I would have no desire to own all 3 consoles .
@ThanosReXXX
Seems like a pretty dramatic reaction . Let me use that same mentality in response to your overly dramatic response.
Wow, the state of the f-ing internet forums today: get something for free to go with a cool new color (giving people options) that is actually closer to 50 and not 100 dollars....
And you found this worth complaining about?
