[QUOTE=Drasnus;43533102]I was disappointed with the euphoria. People tend to just flop over when you shoot them, the euphoria is so toned down it's almost like it isn't there.
Plus getting drunk isn't nearly as fun anymore, and the animation for taking one drink is so long that the effect has almost worn off by the time you take another.[/QUOTE]
Its still a million times better and leagues ahead of other games that don't have euphoria, standard ragdolls are so damn boring now
Red Dead Redemption easily had the best euphoria settings, they made people stumble around more and programmed them to fall off nearby ledges naturally, so satisfying to jump into that game and start capping people
RDR is my favourite R* game by far.
I find debating actual real world things really pointless and annoying on the internet.
Nobody wins and nobody cares.

I hold the strong belief that vegetarians and vegans are not real people.

Also, fish is meat. It's edible biomatter that comes from a living, breathing animal. That's what meat is.
Tumblr feminists have become poisonous to the feminist movement as a whole.
I don't mind vegetarians. I just hate the ones who act like they're better than everyone else or call themselves herbivores. That's not how it works.

This is on par with saying "black nationalists discredit black rights advocates", then again, the 'tumblr feminist' argument is a textbook example of a strawman.

Well, the crazies of every group always attract the most attention. Unfortunately for feminists, the tumblr feminists are insane.

what qualifies as a 'tumblr feminist'? if you actually mean something like separatist feminism, that's something that hardly effects anyone.

Wow, you made a sarcastic text post, the patriarchy is crushed!

Do you seriously care about those? You're kinda silly if you do, because it's nothing to get worked up over.

Of course I don't care about them, I'm just pointing out that people would rather be sarcastic/melodramatic than talk about issues maturely.

Or actually be an activist.

who the fuck ever said it isn't
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;43545226]who the fuck ever said it isn't[/QUOTE]
He's probably talking about how fish and meat are labelled separately instead of both being labelled as "meat".
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;43545226]who the fuck ever said it isn't[/QUOTE]
There are a lot of vegetarians who also eat fish because "it's not really meat." Apparently fish are plants.

tbh i hate all these generalizations of the tumblr userbase that people seem to love, but it IS true that some tumblr have started some crazy ass movements in the past
example: there were plenty of tumblr posts that got reblogged to hell and back about the simplepickup YT channel, claiming they were mysoginist and objectified women and all that. they'd actually raised like 7k to donate to charity, but because of all the negative attention they got, the organization they were giving the money to actually refused to accept it.
I dont like "women with curves"
I am tired of people using "I have ADHD" and other mental disorders like a fucking excuse.
I seriously doubt most people who claim to have mental disorders actually do, and if they do it is so mild that it barely manifests. Yet people think that it is an excuse, a shield, for their shitty behavior.
You know what people with disorders and disabilities do? They get over it, they live with it, and they live a normal life. Yeah, they have to compensate for it, but they make do. They learn to live with that shit.
So don't be a fucking hypochondriac, and even if you do have "Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism, Asbergers, e.t.c" stop using it like it gives you free reign to act like an asshole. You are supposed to live with it and deal with it.
And don't use that shit to grab for attention either.

But generalizations about internet communities are everywhere.
Why do you hate Tumblr's specifically?

I've been diagnosed with inattentive ADHD for a year now and for the most part live with it and accept it. And TBH I've never seen anybody use a mental disorder as a serious excuse, though I can imagine it would get grating.

I've known a fairly large number of autistic people and people with ADHD and out of all those there were like one or two who ever actually used it as an excuse. The worst that would happen with others is they would explain that it's the cause of the problem so it wouldn't cause issues between them and whoever they're dealing with.
The whole using it as an excuse thing seems to stem more from idiots on the internet who haven't even been professionally diagnosed with something in the first place just looking to make themselves feel justified in their actions.

[QUOTE=Dermock;43529681]Valve is actually an extremely mediocre company and everyone that rides their dick (gabe especially) saying that they are the best thing ever, everything they do is great etc is a fucking idiot.[/QUOTE]
They're not perfect. But their games range between good and great, they price their own games well. As game developers they're one of the best companies should you ever ignore their tardiness. I suppose people look at bungie in the same way when it comes to a laid back studio making good games and caring about their community.
But the capitalist within me says "they make a fuckton more money than most other developers. Of course they're fucking great."
[QUOTE=The Jack;43546210]As game developers they're one of the best companies should you ever ignore their tardiness.[/QUOTE]
Outside of game development though they're pretty lackluster, especially due to their management structure. No management simply doesn't work for such a huge company. They need at least a little bit of management to get things properly dealt with rather than leaving things until someone gets around to bothering with them.
I don't like early South Park's voice acting and animation. It got so much better when they switched to computer animation in season four or five.
I don't care for South Park.
