I bet "Discoloration" is the ******** vitiligo that every tumblr ***** cares about for some ******* reason, despite the fact that you can live 5 lifetimes without ever encountering a single person with it.
And even when the stars align and you do encounter someone with it, chances are that this person only has a small little spot of vitiligo somewhere in the hand or arm that is barely noticeable. lol

Like others have said, it's a very easy diversity token to put in your game. You don't have to model deformed faces or animate wheelchairs, you just have to stamp some circles down on skintexture.png in photoshop.

I actually seen Discoloration multiple times but then again im in a highly populated city so I would guess the same goes for the game designers having similar experiences as well, you know what they say “write what you know”

Are there other games that have cases that look like iron-bound books? I posted some pictures of Icewind Dale 2's case, which I love dearly, and it reminded me that I have not seen any. Would love to own some sort of "bookcase" of games.

You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.

Don't forget him not calling the Spanish equivalent of the CDC when he was able to determine the village had an outbreak of parasites (likely from eating undercooked pork) which was causing their erratic behavior.

Typical American tourist behavior tbh.

This 4chan post is ********, but it's probably how mainstream media would report on it. But even if this old Spanish guy sees a foreign man enter his home without knocking, the first thing you do wouldn't be to attack him with a hatchet now would it?. Especially if the man wasn't being violent and was only showing you a photo of a girl.

The original RE4 had great buildup, because the house looks normal at first glance. In the demake, they just went full on cartoon and depicted the house as being dark, rundown and full of weird symbols. Absolutely no class at all.

It's pretty fun.

I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

This made me wonder, is Resident Evil 4 the only one where there is no helicopter that flies off into the sunset? Resident Evil 2 had a "walk off into the sunset" that I recall but there was HUNK that had that helicopter ending far as I recall.

They're two different kinds of acting and being skilled at one doesn't necessarily mean being skilled at the other.

Seething whenever a cartoon/game spends a lot of money for a big name celebrity who turns in a lousy vocal performance.

I've never played Destiny, but even I heard about that whole thing with the "wizard from the moon." Hiring that midge Game of Thrones ****** only for his performance to bomb so spectacularly that they had to redo all the dialogue with Nathan Drake was such an embarrassment.

Very True. However I noticed that western VA’s have vastly inflated egos that rivals the most well known Actors without the qualities to actually back it up.( fame, money, pop culture relevance)

Beyond Shadowgate got a PC release

Beyond Shadowgate is a TurboGrafx CD sequel to the 1987 Mac and MacVenture game Shadowgate.

Seems like something @Tweed would be interested in.

Yong Yea VA performance was atrocious in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. I have no earthly idea why Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio replaced the original Dub Actor Darryl Kurylo who did a decent job capturing Kazuma Kiryu Japanese cadence.

Yong Yea Is just being monotone that sounds like a teenager pretending to have a deep voice.

Any krauts here? I was watching some kraut playing Enderal and the game addressed him as 'Ihr' (you all) instead of 'Sie' (you sir) or 'Du' (you boy). Is this considered woke in Krautland? Howw long has this been going on?
