I'll add some subway surfers clips to the description to help keep your attention so you actually read it next time.
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

At first I thought you were talking about something related to subway sandwichs.

But after a quick search I was greeted with this abomination.

The more I think on this, the more sad I am at the state of the video game industry. Platformers used to be one of the biggest genres because video games were actually being made for kids. Someone makes a video game for kids again and it's massively popular. The entire hobby has been appropriated by adult-children, who dictate that every game be 'mature' but their concept of maturity is based on that of their own childish maturity.
A few years back I bought one of those sega minis for my niece & nephew for when they were at my house and they loved playing Sonic on it. Modern games simply aren't made for kids(young kids), and the most obvious evidence of this is how difficult many are to pick up and play. Nobody needed to 'learn' how to play Mario or Sonic, it was intuitive. They probably had never even heard of Sonic before and were able to figure it out immediately. Modern games open with a 3 hour long tutorial.

Yeah, complex games are fine when they're aimed at the right target. But essentially every game has become 'complex' now.

FYI: white male (non jewish) millennials aren't the ones writing that ****, as they have been effectively been barred from creative pursuits by clown world. And when there are white males involved, they're usually gen-Xers like Emil Pagliacuckro or the inventor of "millennial" writing, Joss Whedon.

That makes my blood boil and I want to take that fictional thief, tie him up, cover him in gasoline, and then burn him alive in front of his wife and kids while I say "yoink" and fake laugh as he screams in agony. Then I'd stomp his ashes.

Stupid **** dumb Millennials say. It started around when borderlands came out abs then in 2014 with that annoying zombie roller skating game and just got worse and worse. Yoink, that just happened, erm, excessive cursing, juvenile "adult " humor. Rick and morty does it a lot.

You have to understand that feminists can not write for ****. There used to some decent female writers out there but they were pushed out of the industry because they didn't believe the feminist dogma. Reading or watching something made by a feminist is like watching or reading something that an alien with no understanding of humanity would make. Since they are terminally online and never read a book before because all the good and classic books were written by problematic white men their skills in storytelling is just all around awful. Their stories boil down to memes, bitching about the patriarchy, female empowerment, self-insertion, the girl being the key to everything, and lesbianism. It has become trite and predicable at this point. It is one of the reason why I avoid buying books written by women now.

Never seen one. Read probably 10k books, and every female writer I encountered was sub-mediocre to ****.
(Possibly some were not known to me to be female and were actually good. This happens sometimes with women using neutral or men's names.)
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.

This actually happens a lot with manga. A lot of manga is made by women but the Japanese women tend to use neutral or male names in order to maintain some anonymity. Also, feminism isn't as prevalent in Japan as it is in the States. As such it doesn't affect storytelling as much over there as it does here. They are trying though. Good lord is Larry "King ****" Fink trying.

Women can write some ok children stories, I remember enjoying the Little Vampire series from some German woman when I was a little kid.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Littl ... ok_series)

Women writing adult stories... I guess there's Jane Austin, who basically writes stories mocking other women for being women.

To be fair Harry Potter isn't bad as a series for young children. Nothing to blow your horn about but it is at least a traditional and largely inoffensive story of good vs. evil. Contrast this to the **** they write for children now. Like holy ****! It is just nothing but gender cult and anti-racism training that they write for kids today. I rather have my niece read Harry Potter over **** like "Anti-Racist Baby" or "Gender *****" any day of the week.

Flannery O'Connor is the pinnacle of female writers.

I'd include Agatha Christie. My disgust at modern murder mysteries (Hi there Ruin Johnson!) might color my memory a little but I enjoyed reading her books a lot.

Two days after the Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake released, people got to work on modding the game. One of them allows you to revert Vivian's part in the story back to the original 2004 English version.

Considering the developers added dialogue that explicitly refers to Vivian as transgender, you can imagine how quite a few people reacted to it in the comments.

This line wasn't in the Japanese script at all. I reviewed that whole conversation on YouTube and while Vivian complains about his sisters, he doesn't have any 'coming out' dialogue like this. Going to make a comprehensive post in the dogshit localizations thread about it in a minute.

In the GameCube JP script he never makes a philosophical statement about it, but he speaks and acts like a girl while dialogue and menu descriptions reveal that he is a boy.
In the GameCube EN localization, they made him a girl by editing all lines that referenced his being a boy.
In the Switch scripts, they added a line where he makes a direct statement in conformity with ***** ideology; see my post here.
