i'm thinking there's some 10 year old somewhere telling his parents that he'd like to play this, & them responding by saying ''honey, wouldn't you really rather play the new dead space remake?'...

Wouldn't that be hilarious if that actually happened.

I’m sure. I use to have some hilarious group chats watching E3 back years ago. But it was about jokes not thought police.

There will be no GOTY in 2023 bcuz too many games are made by men (gross lol)

Their Twitter thread about it is pretty rough too. They didn’t pay for the game (got a code from WB) and they’re donating to an LGBT charity. Still not good enough.
Goes to show it’s not about a cause, it’s about control, imparting their will, and getting “rid” of anything they disagree with.
Incoming ban for them on REEE (along with ACG & SkillUp) in 3…2…

LOL. All gas and no brakes.

I figured this out long ago and it’s messed up. The radical leftist classify people into buckets. For example, females and trans. There is a, more or less, defined pecking order. If you are deemed a more important, or better class, then you get favorable treatment and all below you get crapped on. For example, trans > females. So all trans concerns trump female concerns. If you speak out in defense of females within trans issues, you are by default wrong and evil. No other discussion permitted.

only in bizarro world is saying 'men are men, women are women' & 'men and women cannot change their sex' controversial statements. i mean, just this past week, there were people suggesting that aretha franklin's 'natural woman' & fred rogers' 'boys are boys and girls are girls' were controversial...

Sorry, yeah. ACG and SkillUp have been “banned” (you can’t make threads or post links to their content but I haven’t seen anyone banned or warned for mentioning them) there for awhile. I thought ACG was from his Cyberpunk coverage, but I could be wrong. They(?) also called him a Nazi and he rightfully told them to fuck right off with that shit.
SkillUp was banned because he made some political comments/opinions on some alternate channel that gets like no views and is unrelated to gaming.
Be warned: if they don’t like you, they will dig. And dig. And dig. Until they find something you did or said they find “problematic” and then see ya.
Yep, simply put : they are fascists who use fascist methods.

Looked through their Twitter post and holy fuck I can't imagine living my life like these people. My understanding of those nutjobs is right around the same understanding I have for the size of the universe.

"I don't want to get banned over this"
That's one of the most pathetic things I've ever read in my life.

It must be exhausting. It's such a waste of one's life.

Era using the 'JK Rowling is a big meanie' thread to skirt the discussion ban:
Not quite as blatant as using the stickied Cyberpunk thread to openly shit on everyone discussing the game, but still a classic Era move.

You mean a straight, white, cisgendered female. Pretty much the worst people after straight, white, cisgendered men.

I'd love to see those guys posting here (especially SkillUp, who's probably my favourite game critic - 'straya represent) but those fucktards at Reeeee have done a good job gaslighting folks into thinking we're all a bunch of far right wing asshats here on GAF - despite the fact that the there's just as many centrists and left wingers, and the politics ban keeps the discourse civil.

It’s so strange to me that the most popular and influential gaming forum on the internet is so dogmatic about what moral values are allowed and what aren’t. And it often overtakes actual discussion of the video games. I’m genuinely confused how it’s as popular as it is. It’s very weird to interact with - like cultists in a way

Same, skillup is my favorite reviewer up there with DF. Sad he didn't get a copy of Hogwarts

So i just played the intro. Hoooly shit. Im not even a HP fan, but this game screams quality already. Im playing on PS5 on OLED in balanced mode. I recommend this mode. It looks stunning, and feels really smooth with perfect framepacing and really low input lag. HDR also looks stunning. Combat already feels great in the tutorial and the haptics are awesome too, and the music... my god. Back to playing more before bed time

I got my two keys for the deluxe edition from GMG. Anyone been able to redeem these on Steam yet? I tried this morning and it still wouldn't let me, I'm really hoping we can play tonight.

Absolutely. You're either a full cult member or the sum of all the ills in the history of the planet. There is no wiggle room.

You can redeem your keys but the unlock is 7am PST tomorrow, the game cannot be downloaded or played until then.
Krathoon

Yes. You can redeem them. The deluxe edition just shows the standard edition game page.

It didn't let you redeem the keys? Cause, my key redeemed without issues days ago, the only shitty thing is that there's no pre load for the PC version.

I should've
I should've worded it better. I was able to redeem but not pre-load so that's what I was actually wondering. I'm hoping it unlocks tonight though so we'll see.

This is GOTY material. You can tell it was made by passionate people. That's what sets it apart from other ubisoft-ish open world games.

We're now in a timeline where a game built on a licensed property developed by a developer that has made a lot of young kid friendly titles has outdone Square Enix and their Luminous Productions team.
The younger me would have never believed that the better open world magic game came from WB.

So do we know when this game unlocks? Not the early release, but the full release?
And do we expect the New Zealand trick to work on Xbox for this one?

Yo, I’m going to be real and just say the gameplay is not for me so far from what I’m seeing. Still early but I’m probably going to skip this one. If I was a HP fan, I'd dive right in. Glad people will have this to enjoy though.

Oh no. I’m a fucking bigot.
