Logged in after I heard about this on the FB group. I may not be here too often any more, but Densetsu definitely one of the few people who I enjoyed seeing around when I was here. I hope that whatever journey he takes next, it will be more pleasant than this was. My deepest condolences for...
Forum population is determined by content and content is determined by the population. GameFAQs for instance is primarily a games website devoted to FAQs yet you see they have forums not dedicated to their guides and games.
Here on GBAtemp you can clearly see the site content in the forum view...
Keep in mind that you can't stop players from doing what they want within the game's boundaries. Games are for fantasy, not for realism. Most people don't want to look at an average avatar, they want it to be a fanatastic representation of themselves. The average person full well knows that...
There are a few ways of looking at this "issue", and as a heads up I don't view it as an issue at all. I usually split sexism in games down the middle between the marketing and the games themselves and begin with the question: "Is there sexism in video games?"
Yes. Yes there is. But like any...
If you guys need someone for backup review or one-offs, I'm usually available. I'm not currently employed so full schedules aren't an issue usually. If it wasn't for the fact that I'm kinda a lazy arse (and thus have a hard time actually finishing games at times), I'd actually offer my work on a...
I'd like to think that Issac from Golden Sun deserves a spot. The summon system could offer another unique character and with Ryu's addition, I know Nintendo's engine could handle it.

Wanna weigh in on the vape thing? I remember you kicked your tobacco habit with a vape kit and it profoundly changed your life for the better. Have you kicked vaping to the curb too?
As for the topic. Smoking doesn't automatically disqualify a woman from being attractive, but it...
Then go. Aside from GBAtemp, I don't know of any really active forum which exclusively discusses video games. You might look into forums where interests overlap. Typically forums dedicated to anime will see some decent discussion on video games. It's all going to be hit or miss. I've seen plenty...
Unless that person had a moderator tag, then they weren't a mod. SBAllen is very strict with what mods get away with. Tell me what the mod's name is (and your username) and I'll see if I can't look into getting his power stripped.
Besides that, deal with it is about the only thing you can do...
True, but how many people over there do that intentionally? I have zero people on ignore and I've visited the forums every day for the past three and a half years. Meanwhile I have one person ignored here because the fucker started harassing me. Mileage may vary, but every forum has its idiots...
Funny thing is that they just removed their profanity filter. You still can't make racial slurs, but they stop actively filtering curses for people with the filter off. Fun fact, I use GameFAQs 10x more than GBAtemp nowadays due to their huge amount of specialty boards like their creative...
No, he's using his own experiences to look at why he despises women, not generalize. Unlike people who actually generalize, he understands that he's wrong. Some people can't help but feel one way even if it's wrong.
Robots eh? Haha, I remember when I said the same thing.
Good stuff, I'm actually entering the final phase of editing Terrestria's final draft. It needed a small re-work, and once that's done, line editing. Hopefully I'll be on the road to mass rejection by the end of the year!
Where are you...
To an extent, I agree with Nathan Drake, however there's a point where the game is 'good enough'. As complexities ramp up, so does the time spent testing. Games now can hardly ever be bug free, so it's important to ensure that the bugs the player experiences are not game breaking. And it depends...
I give a shit. :) I don't think you're awful, but I do think feeling like you do is quite normal for someone who grew up in a house like the one you did. If all the female role-models you grew up with were bitches, you're going to view them that way. That being said, figure out what you want. If...
