Tza: May I know where you did see something about trans people hate or villifying in that light-hearted poem ?

ydobemos: Being "light-hearted" doesn't automatically make something OK.
Not ok for whom ? The super-offended imbecils of Twitter ?

I repeat my question : where is the supposed trans people hate in that light hearted poem ?
This is an humorous story of a suicidal tavern casanova who discovered that his last conquest was a man. The obvious cretin in the story is the knight. There is no mention of transgender people of any sort in it. There is no hate expressed towards the knight night lover.

So... where is the freaking hate, except in your own mind?
and here is why neo fems and i probably won't get along: i like humor. I also like dark humor, but dark humor is like the devils work for them?

Like really, we could censor all grave writings from games like pillars and sacred because they might offend someone. after all, its always joking on someones death.



man these people are so incredibly thin-skinned, if you'd simply touch them you'd cause severe bloodloss

Cool down everyone, focus on the funny stuff:

This 12 minute TotalBiscuit rant completely based on the false assumption that the 'poem' was created by Obsidian writers.

It's grand comedy. Absolutely hilarious. Historical accuracy here, adds to the lore there, "We should support the artist when it comes to making jokes like this". "You are telling an artist to censor himself". "This is attempting to bully an artist into taking something out of a game". "I respect that artist's right to shape that world first and foremost". "[the joke] really does add to the universe".

Still rolling on the floor. The original tweet that brought the poem to Obsidian's attention already contains the information that a backer created it. Not sure what sources the Biscuit even used to have missed that.

ydobemos: You're right, it is pathetic that this backer thought the existence of trans people was something to make a nasty, unfunny 'joke' about, and that the developers indulged him.
And where exactly does it do that ? There is not even a single mention of transpeople anywhere, it's just making fun of some guy who killed himself after accidentally having sex with another men.

The more peoples actively trying to invent new things to be offended by; the more they will find...

i can only imagine how offended these people would be by Hideyoshi from baka to test or Leeron from gurren lagann.

I recently saw another post somewhere calling FFXV sexist because the 4 protagonists are male, as if guy roadtrips don't exist or anything.

You really are obsessed by him aren't you...

Well your post is a perfect example of Confucius wise man and the moon quote; it's rather irrelevant who wrote it (there are some peoples saying it was originally from the Canterbury Tales, no idea if it's true or not), it was Obsidian decision to put it in the game and now it's part of it.
But what man wouldn't be shocked if that happened to him?

I was referring to Southpark Season 9 Episode 1 where Kyle gets an operation to be black (in order to be better at basketball), Mr. Garrison gets a transgender operation and Kyle's dad gets an operation to turn into something that is supposed to resemble a dolphin and complains about the lack of sea creature restrooms of course. It's brilliant and the episode is actually more than 10 years old.

Hey, insult whom you want, but not Geoffrey Chaucer. GOD that guy knew his meter.

The guy who composed that "poem", backer or not, knows squat about it. That read's a really rocky road for people with an English university degree, I tell you.

So, would you please guide me to the people 'suspecting' that this thing was from the Canterbury Tales? I intend to go all Miller's Tale on them.

Its one sentence. Its not that difficult to understand. And he said that quote is debated to have came from Canterbury Tales; ie the ''It is irrelevant who wrote it''.

Which false assumption? Right at the start Total Biscuit says that the rhyme was provided by a $500 backer. SJWs sigh...
