Its weird that people are comparing Hatred to Posted, considering you can play through postal and complete all the objectives without killing practically anyone. Plus is a wacky game that is not taking itself even remotely seriously. I've played postal and I enjoy it for the same reason I enjoy the gore scenes in an…
Game isn't even out yet and everyone is already in outrage mode. Good job on the marketing. A+++ What was shown looks supremely tasteless, but lets get real, we all know how misleading game trailers can be right? I mean a small studio wouldn't be deliberately controversial so they could get some of that free viral…
Generally speaking I don't care for the "moral brigade" and all that garbage. As far as I'm concerned if a product sells, then regardless of what YOU feel is moral and right, someone disagrees and was willing to spend their hard earned money on it. Telling me I can't play a video game because it is immoral is the first…
You can criticize the game all you want and you have the right to, but time and time again it's been proven that no form of any fictional medium will change the viewer. No book, Film, Video Game, etc. will make anyone racist/sexist/etc. unless said person already had those strong views to begin with. For example, a Danish…
Not quite. Used to be. Nowadays freedom of speech just means that it's not technically illegal to say what you want. Anybody who is sufficiently Offended By That, however, can rally the troops to come bring down your livelihood and essentially destroy your ability to stay employed and provide for yourself. Pariahization of…
This is where it gets tricky. I feel pretty strongly about freedom of speech/expression and consider it to be an absolute value that should remain uncompromised for as long as possible. There are of course instances where freedom of speech does not apply. Hiding behind free speech to directly threaten the personal safety…
The magical part of freedom of speech here is that it doesn't protect you from the consequences of your actions it just protects you from people that wants to stop you from expressing yourself. Which means that people are free to say how much they hate someone, but when they send death threats or start doxxing people that…
You guys are still arguing about this meat? It's just raw-meat plain and simple, we need to focus on non-meat, or else the meat will go rotten. teaandcigarettes Even the woodland games are doing it? This is no good. xvampire The difference here is that this game doesn't have the power the other meat does, it's just pixels,…
Man, the fact is that this whole thing about Japan have been discussed bazillions of times. It seems you don't see the TV, nor international news, it's incredible. And it's a fact as huge as the Tibet. I'm not going to waste my time googling charts and news for your, because 1: you are being ignorant on purpose, because 2:…
No, of course not, it's part of the picture that helps us understand the impact of these things. Nothing makes us murderers but our predisposition to become one, but we can heavily influence if that predisposition kicks into gear or not. I do however agree on the regulation bit, it is a slipperly slope. There is a couple…
