Yeah.

best post in this thread! xD +1

I am one of those people that disagrees with this. I know many people think, fighting with a childish person, makes you childish too but I believe people should always take a stand when someone is attacking you. In my eyes, ignoring a childish person isn't being mature, it is being a push over. When you give someone an inch, they will take a mile. If you go up to a 1%er biker for example and insult him, he will either beat you to death or shoot you in the face. There is a reason. It is because being a push over is a bad thing. Out of nowhere, in this thread, Azdeth started being very disrespectful towards me. I responded and continue to respond.

One of the underlying problems with all this, the issue of women in games and the like, is due to lack of opportunity. It's not just that there are a ton of negative images of women in games. More importantly, there's a lack of heroic roles for women to play. People can put up with a lot of negative out there if they have positive they can focus on and enjoy. When there's little to no positive, the negative becomes much more glaring.

If we all had plenty of games where straight/ bi/ gay men and straight/ bi/ gay women could ALL play the heroic lead, could save the day, could get the high score, and could have the hot sexy love interest of our choice, we'd all be a lot happier. I don't care who other gamers fuck in games, so long as I get someone for me to fuck. When everybody else is happily fucking others in game after game after game and I'm getting jack shit, I'm gonna be an angry panda.

Okay, so, I'm having a really hard time taking you seriously. Are you being serious? :D

*DA:O moves up in BM's queue*

You should really play that. One of the best RPGs that was released in recent years. :D

No no, I'm not trolling at the moment. It was an honest question, since what you said seemed to be at odds with what I've seen. I'm not picking fights either, it's just how you perceive it. If you want to, you can make your case and show me where I started being really disrespectful to you. If you really want to, I can make my case and explain what I think is wrong with your post, but I'll only do that if you ask because I don't think you'd even consider that you're doing something wrong.

I've heard love for DA1 and hate for DA2, Story and plot are crucial to me for game enjoyment, yet the vids of the game seemed... consolish. Consoles make me think a game isn't very deep story-wise.

Not really.
If a child goes to a biker and tells him "You're ugly", the biker will ignore the insult.
If his old lady goes to him and calls him a lazy ass, he will again back down.
If another member's old lady yells at him, he will again take the abuse and back down.

The point of responding to someone is that you perceive him a threat. A childish person isn't a threat, thus you ignore him. Same as the bouncer of a club will ignore the skinny whiny teen who talks thrash at him. So by responding aggressively to a childish person, you show that you perceive that person as a threat.

The first , even though it is multiplatform , it is a 100% CRPG due to the UI and taactical gameplay (D&D, BG , NWN , SW KOTOR style) , but the second was consolized. I haven't played the second one yet , but from what I heard , the story isn't really bad , it's just nothing like the first. This time the story revolves around a single character and his journey instead of being a story about an entire country.

LOL nice try. A childish person can be a threat and a when I say "childish person", I do not mean, a child, an old lady etc. Obviously, a child is no threat. Obviously, an old lady is no threat.
"Don't you understaaand, only 1 person (amok's girlfriend) of the 47% of everyone plays HARDCORE games, and it's not because the games are all made for men. They know their stuff, they have seen numbers and are statistics masters. I have seen a woman who only played casual games. That is very unlike men, who ALL PLAY ALL HARDCORE ALL DAY like MEN and MEN have MONEY which makes them a MARKET that WOMEN aren't BECAUSE WOMEN HAVE NO MONEY. It's so simple, but hard to get for some.

You heard how langurmonkey wouldn't take part in a market that doesn't want him. He's saying that women need to swallow the shit he wouldn't swallow in their position because he's a MAN damn it."
The last 2 sentences here accuse me of having sexist beliefs even though none of my previous posts reveal such a thing. And everything written before that was extremely disrespectful. The words above those 2 sentences basically expresses I'm a retard for believing corporations aren't run by retards. I'm sure you noticed, after this post of yours, I started being hostile towards you. It wasn't for no reason... So that one post of yours = I'm a sexist retard. I think that is picking a fight with someone...

Ignore the laugh track.
