    Game is fine so far.

    People get all in their feelings over a game. A story. Would they get this worked up over a book? These people have to bitch about something to feel alive.

    I feel alive taking in a game how it was written and designed to be played. I don’t worry about cultural norms or other petty bullshit. Enjoy the gameplay, the world design and a new experience.

    Now, give me a Black Flag sequel with a female lead, a revamped ship combat and more pirate comedy. Top it off with some lesbien romance and outfits. Just to piss off the Republican snowflakes.

      Also, the only thing that comes from including more people of color, LGBTQ+ people, etc., in media is more variety in characters and possible story lines. How is that ever a bad thing?

        it’s bad if you’re a bigot and have been raised to hate and feel disgust when your beliefs are challenged

          feel disgust when your beliefs are challenged

          I remember feeling this in church as a kid. Know what I did? I asked myself, “why would I react that way? If this is true, then it should be able to withstand challenges, and if it’s not then it is not worth believing.”

      Ship Blackbeard and Captain Morgan. That would truly piss them off. A lesbian romance only brings performative anger because they’re hoping for porn.
