ReasonUser warned: Antagonizing another member
Good on both of you for posting Xbox pictures, as well. It’s very lame of to not recognize that there’s more consoles out there than just the Sony ones.
If I was in front of my Switch, I’d post that picture here, but I won’t be back home until likely tomorrow.

I don’t think being friends with people with different viewpoints from yours is a bad thing. We have a huge political divide in the world right now. Cutting out people with different political beliefs just means that the only place they can look for friendship is in other people with the same beliefs, which is partially why both sides have become more extreme and the middle is disappearing. And for that reason, I prefer Colin’s stance of being inclusive rather than the Kinda Funny stance of “if you don’t agree with us, then just leave”.
To word it another way, racism is objectively bad, but if you immediately demonize everyone who has different political beliefs to yours, is that really any better?

ReasonUser Banned (1 Month): Downplaying harassment, account in junior phase
I'm surprised when creatives can't handle this type of criticism (if you can call it that).
If someone makes a hateful and/or flippant comment about your work they probably socially immature or an actual child , so why take it to heart? You cannot reason with them, call them out, shame them or make any sort of intelligent rebuttal that will land with them. None of that works because don't care and are probably just making a drive-by comment anyway.
The thing is, there valid reason to critique the art style. I bet if someone had privately posted the character designs in a community of professional designers they would get lots of sensible suggestions on how to improve the designs (I suspect its more about proportionality of the facial features than any other choices).
Art is subjective, yes, but there are tried and tested scientific principles that underpin good character design. Its not surprising how collective this response has been when you consider that when it comes to faces, you are not just dealing with artistic taste but also our shared lizard-brain perceptions of what a human aught to look like.

ReasonUser banned (1 month): antagonizing other users and inflammatory commentary
I would say that Generations is good after replaying it on the Series X and the Sonic potion of SA1 is good.
Unleashed is not worth five dollars and SA2 was garbage. Not sure how those are misleading, aside from the last one?
Edit: LMAO didn't break a single rule in the last one and you locked it because I didn't like your favorite Sonic games being trash. Proved my point right there. I can tell why you aren't a mod anymore. Or was it because you made fun of a depressed dude who ended up killing himself or something like that. And you are gonna have the nerve and call me a clown? Fuck off.

Not sure what you're on about here. I don't know you. I have never interreacted with you prior to you quoting me in this thread, and that response is what I took issue with.
And yes, I disagree with the way the mods handled the poll here, but that's far from having an "axe to grind" with them.
Yes, and that's pretty shitty of you. If someone who came into the thread disagreed with OP and wanted to vote in the poll, what option are they going to vote for?
You literally just called anyone who voted that option as a sexist jerk. I'm not painting you as anything, you're doing it yourself. Twice now. And I have never said that the poll wasn't poorly worded, but I'm not going to automatically assume that anyone who voted is a sexist and attack them for it.
So yeah, when you come into a thread all angry and call everyone who voted for an option you don't like the wording of sexist assholes, THEN cap it off by acting like Era and everyone on it is secretly a sexist troll, I have zero issues with telling you to fuck off with that nonsense. And if it gets me in trouble then so be it.
Way to completely miss the point and ignore the very post you quoted.
Disingenuous fuckery indeed.
GamingThreadPC-Gaming came really far in the last 10 years with the help of Steam
ReasonUser Banned (Permanent): Troll account, abuse of the report system.
Total console market comes to roughly $57bn in 2021. As per Statista PC gaming as a whole is $44.6bn. Now, tencent and NetEase have significant PC business too. That means Valve's revenue is less than $8bn, which would correspond to less than 1/5th of entire PC market.
This suggests Valve's revenue was $3.7bn in 2017 (although citation needed).
Now, how does a company that doesn't even have 1/5th of PC market revenue be majorly responsible for a secular growth of PC market?

GamingThreadGaz from Game On Daily: Playground's Fable possibly downscaled after having trouble with the Forzatech engine
ReasonUser Warned: Long History of Creating Threads to Stoke Console Wars Drama
Take with a grain of salt, as usual.
So this rumor is from Gaz, founder of the Game On Daily news aggregate site and YouTube channel. He also regularly features on Colteastwood's XNC (Xbox News Cast) podcast, as he did recently when the topic of Fable came up.
He claims that his source told him that:
- Fable had to be scaled down because the team had trouble building the game on Forzatech
- Likely still using Forzatech
- The gameplay mechanics they designed could not be retrofitted into the engine
- Didn't have the expertise with the open world gameplay involving the mechanics they wanted to implement, so they needed to bring in more developers
- It's likely further away than people expect, but still ultimately "nothing to worry about"
You can watch the segment in question here:
EDIT: For further validity, I had a look at Playground's careers page and noticed they still have around 74 job positions up for the Fable team, 5 of which are Director positions so it does sound quite far off still.
GamingThreadNateDrake: "There is a Banjo project in development."
ReasonUser warned: Port begging
Yeah, this is true. But when it comes to 3D platformers the best scenario to sell is being on Switch (especially when the game is Banjo, which is much more appreciated by Nintendo fans than Xbox ones). I would totally say the the same thing if an FPS would release exclusively on Switch and PC, it would be great to have and Xbox version, for example.
You're right. But when it comes to banjo kazzoie, I do think it needs, buddy. Just look how successful the franchise is right now, there is nothing. The only thing you can say about it in the last years is: Banjo on Smash and banjo on NSO.
