Hot Sauce 2,727 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Damn, that new NeoGAF layout is sleek as hell. Shame about the light blue text on white background, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,549 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 That place is literally insane and it's amazing how they don't realise it. My favourite is when they make a thread about a topic and in the OP there is a huge mod note basically saying anyone with even a slight differing opinion will get banned. Then it's like, 'ok, discuss' Was great when Gaf went down and so many game developers and ppl in the industry came out celebrating and saying how toxic it was and now they moved and are actually worse.

I truly believe there is such a thing as too big for a forum. Much prefer smaller communities where you can not only follow threads but also know all the members. Era can literally have a thread on page 2 if it's inactive for 5 min Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everything has to be associated or injected with politics somehow no matter the reach. So and so is not as progressive as I like, fuck him. So and so made the game to appease to the alts. Let's boycott said Japanese game because of over-sexualized characters. Why does it have to boycott, why can't it be girlcott? Obviously we need to modify the dictionary to represent both genders equally. Edited December 6, 2018 by lynux3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Should be it's own thread if it's not already. People should know about this, he's the director for one of the biggest games of the year and Sony first party dev. (this is in a reply to a tweet that Cory said to boogie saying 'welcome to LA, hoping to run in to you') To Geoff for inviting Boogie: Fuck this facist's show. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm gonna check back in that thread after (hopefully) God of War wins Game of the Year... I'll love to see what they say about Cory. Can you imagine if the world was like that? No room for any idea that wasn't your own... You could almost die saving a burning bus full of 30 children, and then the next day retweet something from someone they don't like and then you're public enemy #1.
