Obviously, receipts are handy but they’re not a requirement. And I’d (speaking only for myself, though with a polite nod in the direction of that Admin tag) rather not make posting every shred of evidence possible the expectation here.
Don’t forget we moved!

RE: Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo
@Jumpscare said in Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo:
That means that since the birth of BMD, no other game has negatively affected MU* players as broadly or as painfully as Star Wars: Age of Alliances.
A board of women, queers, and allies reacting strongly against sexual misconduct and anti-reporting prejudice… Isn’t that how we started in the first place?

Descs and MU History
For posterity, I present thus:
Tracy is a man and he is a very hansome and manly man.He likes women a lot and women like him too but men think he is compitishion.He has very long brown shiny hair everywhere and a little blue eyes that are mostly green but very hansome anywya.You can tell a lot of things from his eyes.He has a very big bulge in his jeans where the dick would be and it is not a sock because it makes all women almost orgasm with desire.Behind him is a very firm muscled ass that makes you want to slap it and play with it in lots of ways but only if your a women.If you are a man you will die if you touch it because Tracy is strong and very not Gay.If you are a women he winks and smiles at you and thinks you have a nice personality.If you are a man again he frowns at you and it makes you not hit on him or on any women when hes here.He likes lots of women very much and likes very few men but not as boyfriends.And he has a shitr which is nice and blue.I mean shirt sorry.

RE: Bannings
From what I’ve seen, you are a people with boundless empathy, but you choose who to direct that towards.
Not to really engage in the debate, here, but that’s literally the same as everyone else.

RE: Good things in Mushing
Me. I’m a good thing about mushing.
And this isn’t a throw away joke, or an ego thing, or whatever. But I’ve finally been able to arrive at the conclusion that yes, my RP is good. My events are good. My being present on a game is good. And I’m finally free to feel that I am good enough.
So there. Me. I’m a good thing about mushing.

Just because you can open a game on your own doesn’t mean you should.
You should. It might last, it might not, but at least stuff’s being made even for a moment.

@GF We’re for taco Tuesdays, no-pants Fridays, and the violent and utter overthrow of the capitalistic, white-supremacist patriarchy. And tea.

RE: Macha Awareness (And Unappreciation) thread
@CuriousGamer said in Macha Awareness (And Unappreciation) thread:
@Tez There seems to be a few bad actor threads now, would it make sense to put them into their own ‘Bad Actor’ kind of topic at this point? I know there’s been a couple discussions of others in the not too distant past as well.
No. We don’t need a whole section of the forum devoted to talking shit about specific people.

RE: Underage Players
@untitled said in Underage Players:
because I’d be unhappy if I found out my kids were
That right there is the ultimate point. Policing children is the job of the parent, not any game they would seek to join.
Establish rules that state, outright, that the game is for adults, will contain adult themes, etc. If it is revealed from a trustworthy source that there is an underage person, remove them. That is all you can do.
These days, children on these kinds of games are very much the exception. There’s a high barrier to entry and far more free-to-play games around than there were in the early years when a lot of us first started. So don’t stress over it too much.

RE: why is nobody talking about Veilguard
I liked my time with Veilguard. Just as I liked my time with Origins, Hawke and Friends, and Inquisition. I also enjoyed Mass Effect Andromeda and desperately want a sequel, but know it probably won’t happen. There are valid critiques in here, of course, the game isn’t perfect. But I enjoyed myself… so if you can get it cheap or as part of a subscription you already pay for, then play it for a bit. At worst, you’ll be bored.

RE: why is nobody talking about Veilguard
@Roz said in why is nobody talking about Veilguard:
WGA doesn’t include video game writers AFAIK
It does, though not many video games are written by members, and the WGA Awards had a category for video games from 2008 - 2019. It gets complicated and political quick if you do a deep dive on it, so for the sake of your sanity I’d just not.

RE: why is nobody talking about Veilguard
@Rinel said in why is nobody talking about Veilguard:
I think the Antivans are mixing Spanish and Italian, or am I missing something?
They are, but the voice actors are also Spanish/Hispanic and Italian (eta: thus the accents are more authentically from the region they’ve adopted/adapted), rather than Generic American doing a voice.
@Rinel said in why is nobody talking about Veilguard:
Also, is the female British VA for Rook Scottish? I keep hearing a twinge to her vowels.
Not originally, she’s from Northumberland, but that’s very close to Scotland so there’s likely some overlap… Her name is Bryony Corrigan, for reference.

RE: why is nobody talking about Veilguard
Played it, finished it, and smooched Harding.
I agree that they sanded it down a bit too much, with very little resolution or development on several thorny pieces of lore from previous editions: the ghettos, casual anti-elven racism, Tevinter slavery, etc. But it has been a decade, and I’d wager most folk these days are after more joyous fantasy escapism than the grittier fantasy-like-reality.
Additionally, from my limited checking, most of the voice actors seem to be culturally/ethnically appropriate – save for the main character, for obvious player-choice-related reasons. ETA: So the accents aren’t necessarily ‘silly fake’ they’re just accents. They might be put on, but they’re not like the formerly faux-French we’ve had to deal with.
Without spoiling the ending(s), it definitely feels like it’s bringing this era of Dragon Age to a close. Perhaps something akin to what ME3 and Andromeda attempted to do with Mass Effect, starting off a new series in the same setting. If that’s the case, I’m not entirely confident that Veilguard is going to be any better than Andromeda was at introducing a potential new series even though I had oodles of fun while playing it.
