how did you come up with this on the spot? Psychedelics? (Serious question)
Ain’t no way this was written whilst sober
I’ve got an 1858 remmy replica w/ a 45 ACP conversion cylinder that lives on my nightstand. Its probably my favorite firearm that I own. Lotta fun to shoot.
Solid point, yeah, but 20 years ago was 2005.
GTA: San Andreas released 21 years ago.
Half-life 2 released 21 years ago.
Morrowind released 23 years ago.
Ocarina of Time released 27 years ago.
Crash Bandicoot released 29 years ago.
Star Fox released 32 years ago and had 500-600 tris on any given frame.
DOOM also released the same year, but is not true 3D
Obviously your point still stands, but full true 3D games were common by the late 90’s, and pseudo 3D games were prevelant as early as '92 with Wolfenstein 3D.
Unfortunately, time flies.
Vytle@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•"We approached payment processors because Steam did not respond" - Australian pressure group Collective Shout claims responsibility for Steam and Itch.io NSFW game removalEnglish1·1 month agoFirst off, I appreciate the response.
Yes, I understand that if these people could have it their way, any kind of mature content would be completely illegal. The reason I don’t feel strongly about this is strictly because this isn’t a legal threat, and I don’t think it has that capacity to become one. Lobbying is expensive, and I don’t believe that an Australian organization has the capacity to seriously affect global/western culture more than this. Quite frankly, its impressive they were able to pull this much off, and I fully expect ts to blow over in 3 years tops.
Don’t get me wrong- its not that I don’t care about censorship, its that I don’t really view this as censorship because the consumption and purchasing of the “censored” product is still completely possible. Contrarily, if this were signed into law I would have a big fucking problem with it.
With regards to the “companies they choose to use” point I made, I was in fact referring to payment processors, hence why I proposed crypto, cash and giftcards; as in purchasing a steam giftcard with cash from a store. Obviously I don’t expect people to not have credit cards, but the anonymity and security cash provides is almost never used because people find it less convenient.
The reason I brought this up is because I have seen it proposed that this issue will expand beyond the scope of digital marketplaces, which I find downright laughable. People WILL stop using visa cards if you can’t use it to buy condoms and there’s an ATM in the gas station.
I firmly believe that if this issue is pressed further, at the very least Valve will js stop accepting payment directly through payment processors.

This isn’t the same thing as requiring ID to view NSFW content; this issue is not a legal one.
It’s not even like porn is js inacessible now, most of it is found on Patreon, which is both unaffected and literally accepts cryptocurrency. I will admit im suprised to see itch.io take action cos it has a reputation as a porn service, but who tf consumes porn on steam? I do not believe “what they define as NSFW will expand!” Or “next, games featuring a gay character will be banned!”, either. You are fucking bugging if you think Valve would let that happen. All they would need to do is lean heavier into steam giftcards, potentially selling them digitally, and start accepting crypto 'till the processors wanna play ball.
I don’t understand why people are bitching that the companies that they choose to use have so much power over their purchasing decisions. “First this, next sex toys! Then contraceptives!” Like Jesus fuck bro have you not heard of cash?
The fact that there are people who can’t tell if this is ai or not is upsetting. This image is like at least 7 years old.

No one is protesting there, the toy soldiers just want to pretend that they matter.

Vytle@lemmy.worldto traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns@lemmy.ca•Lemmy.world needs to moderate those unacceptable commentsEnglish0·5 months agoThere is no objective truth; you can’t say someone who is intolerant is objectively incorrect, because in their worldview they are correct. Yes, there are bigots in the world, but taking away their right to speak is a theft of their basic human rights, and the issue is not a question of tolerance, the issue is that by silencing someone for their intolerant worldview you are righteously proclaiming your worldview as correct. I wouldn’t want my morals righteously applied onto other people; because I don’t believe my morals are objectively correct. That doesn’t mean I’m not gonna confront someone if they something I don’t jive with, it just means that I do not think they should lose their right to an opinion just because its “wrong”
Vytle@lemmy.worldto traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns@lemmy.ca•Lemmy.world needs to moderate those unacceptable commentsEnglish0·6 months agoPeople really want free speech until they don’t.
If someone’s being a prick, just clown on them. They are entitled to speak their opinion, regardless of how stupid it is. Social ostracization will always be worse than anything moderation can do anyways.
