My coworker outed himself as fucking awful. He was talking about the game and how he’s so hyped about it and then says “they even have pride parades, so you know what I’m doing!” and makes a gesture of loading a shotgun…
I figured he was that kind of asshole but he never said anything that direct before.
I mean, people do all kinds of things in games they never want to do in real life. Smashing up a parade with a shot gun would be fun. And if it’s pride, it’s even more fun because it’s just so wrong. You know?
When I was playing gta, I had so much fun just hitting people on the street. Who didn’t do that? And who didnt look at the girls in very inappropriate ways?
Games are games. It doesn’t mean your collegue is an asshole. When I was playing duke nukem in the 90s, I was playing co-op and I laughed my ass off when I killed my buddies with remote triggered explosives. I mean I was laughing so I got tears coming out of my eyes. :)
It’s just games. And when we start acting politically correct in games, it’s all over. We have become machines.

okay, so behavior in games can be assholey, like if you go around explicitly trying to ruin someone else’s fun. (i have this asshole [former] associate who was one of those foul everyone in basketball, play rogue in dungeons and dragons and steal from everyone in the party and start fights, and then cry “it’s just a game” when people got mad at them) but if they’re just running around in RDR torching klansmen, tally ho comrade i’m in.
I get what you’re getting at, and to an extent I agree.
Simultaneously, to me it feels like there’s something off about being hyped up to specifically shoot up a pride parade in a game that has yet to be released. That feels very pointed.

Report that asshole
Bruh why do we live amongst such monsters
Because you allow them to feel safe leaving their homes
Capitalism actively rewards sociopathy.
Because your village’s survival does not depend on them. Otherwise, they’d be culled/exiled long ago.
So you were like "yeah can’t wait, I hope it’s also got food banks! Chk-chk! And daycares! Chk-chk! And churches! Chk-chk!
Did you ask him if the game had mosques too, and what he would do with those?
Maybe the game should have a Jan 6th style mission.

remember how people were torching klansmen in rdr? this is an explicit response to that and it’s an advertising bullshit. that’s what it’s going to be
Yeah I guess that’s true.
