Why did they make Henry gay? Why? You legitimately were more likely to see an African in central Europe at the time than gay people.

Henry is:
>Bohemian
>From Silver Skalice
>Is the illegitimate son of the blacksmith Martin, who himself was part of the blacksmithing guild in Kutna Hora before moving away for a quieter life
>Had a girlfriend named Bianca who died during the raid
>A supporter of Wenceslaus, who he perceives to be the rightful king
>A young man with a wanderlust, more interested in playing with swords and weapons than hitting the books or perfecting his craft
So all of this was his original character in the first game. The real counter-argument is to point out that because Henry is a young man, his objectives in life and preferences aren't set in stone, and he can come to change his mind on various things. One of the recurring themes is the need to grapple with the PTSD he has from when his village was razed, and his own psyche, in the form of his father, implores him to consider letting go and embracing forgiveness, for his own sake. He's a young man with many a talent, and he's got a lot of life to live. By the end of the second game, he's already in his mid-to-late 20s, so it's almost like the character for whom you're making decisions ultimately becomes the person you want him to be.

The same isn't true for characters like Bruce Wayne/Batman, Solid Snake, or even Geralt of Rivia. They're more solidified and set in stone because they're closer to actualization than Henry is. The thing about writing is that you can do whatever you want with your characters; it's just that people don't like to accept discrepancies because they identify with some aspect of the character, and if it gets changed, they're sort of made unrecognizable.

It'd be like if you took Taylor Swift, who is known for making cheesy romance pop songs, and made her into an edgy Goth/emo girl who is the lead singer of some Norwegian metal band. It could be done but her fans would protest. Same with fictional characters.

Pop culture/media will never represent right-wing views, because those views are destructive. If you want media that better represents those views, you need a Charlie Kirk, a Tim Pool, a Ben Shapiro, a PragerU, etc. so that's how those views get representation.
>b-but it's not in movies, books and games!
Yeah it is, it's just not popular. The only one that I can think of is Ethnic Cleansing, a shitty first person shooter made by white supremacists for the express purpose of indoctrinating their youth. Fascism/White Supremacy/Racism/etc. aren't profitable and they never will be. It's about money more than it's about adhering to any one ideology.

Can confirm this anon hits it on the head. Guy I knew trooned out and his reason was his crush turning out to be a slut. He got super depressed and lonely (granted a lot of it was self inflicted as he would turn down opportunities to hang with people and maybe get a gf a lot). In college he tried to hook up with a bpd lesbian as she was the only girl who would humor him and when he tried to cross the line and got shut down hard it mindfucked him into a suicidal depression.

I would feel bad for him if so much of this stuff wasn't totally avoidable.

machine learning and neural networks have also been in use since the early 1900s (yes actually). More importantly once computers started becoming household objects, machine learning really took off. Computer Vision has been studied pretty intensely the past 20 years straight and I don't think China will ever get rid of its surveillance cameras any time soon.
neural networks are sticking around forever for sure, they're too broadly useful to go away. Generative AI on the other hand will probably wane in hype over the next fews years, but never be gone forever

I always see people calling fighting games dead, especially when they are referring to other skill based 1v1 games like arena shooters or RTS. But here is the thing, fighting games are more alive than they have ever been. You need to remember that fighting games are also on console, and most modern fighting games have crossplay enabled. Take the steam daily peak player count and triple it, that is basically the true daily peak of available players. I'd say there are probably anywhere from 100,000 to 200,000 unique players daily when you take into account all modes. Compared to arena shooters, fighting games are incredibly thriving. We have active local scenes, competitive scenes, and online scenes. The biggest name in arena shooters only gets a peak of 400 players daily. RTS games may be a bit more popular than fighting games when it comes to player count, but our competitive and local scenes are actually alive and thriving. When you compare fighting games to other popular games, you have to remember it is a 1v1 game. A better metric to compare it to other games is to take the number of possible matches that could be happening at a time.

For example, in order to fill an ARC Raiders lobby you need 21 players. Lets take the peak and divide it by the amount of players you need to have a match.

>445,973/21 = 21237

Now lets do the same for Street Fighter 6

>37,646/2 = 18823

Note, these are only Steam numbers, the amount of playable matches at peak hours is actually much greater. Outside of the titans, the "liveliness" of SF6 is comparable to most popular multiplayer games.

Sorry for the bad grammar, I'm ESL.

Like I said, the genre is being seen as a multiplayer only game like a fucking curse or not. Maybe if there's a quality GOTY worth singleplayer fighting game without online it would change the prespective. Normalfags will be interested try to get into the online competitive fighters even begging to add multiplayer which you'll get more players. This is all schizo headcanon of mine of course.

What are you talking about?
Half the people I see in Battle Hub have max level Avatars with all the stat boosters. That's like 80 hours of World Tour at minimum.

And that's just your recurring player.
Most casuals might buy the game, play a bit of fighting ground, play a bit of battle hub, spend a lot of time in World Tour and then never touch the game again, and that's fine. That's no different than me buying Yakuza 94 and putting it down after I beat it.

The fact that you think because hardcore FG players aren't playing it as much as they're grinding ranked ladder against Gorilla Ryu's that NO ONE plays it only proves the other posters point that hardcore sweaties in internet forums have a distorted perception of what makes these games successful.
WT/BH/FG all feed into eachother in helping SF6 maintain and grow It's player base. Someone might come for WT or FG but stay because of the online chat hub of BH socialization. Someone might only be interested in one of the three modes.

Casting a wider net is pertinent for a game's success. The sweats don't give a fuck about your game and will only play it if the casuals play it -- see City of the Wolves.

>>729106838
If you were to make l4d3 you'd have to make at least 4 more special infected, the lore is already straining under the weight of the current ones. How do you make 4 more special infected that constitute an environmental hazard? Personally, I would just rip off the special infected from Dead Space.
Now how do you make the game appealing to both new players and veterans? Having 8 special infected was already a lot for someone jumping into L4D2 to wrap their head around, now ask them to remember 12. Unless L4D3 came bundled with both of the previous games so people could learn the special infected as veterans learned them, 4 at a time. I don't know if Valve still has the pro-consumer mentality that they had during The Orange Box days.
Now there's the challenge of making 4 new survivors in the current year. People are so politically balkanized these days that no matter what you make the characters, somebody is going to take offense. The characters of the first two games were written in a different time, by today's standards I'm sure you could find something to be offended by in the stable from the first two games. You could either make all of the characters bland thereby offending nobody or make all of the characters an offensive caricature, intentionally offending everybody. I would make the 4 characters a Maga republican, a special snowflake democrat, a shirtless post-op ftm transsexual and a pregnant amish woman.

Medieval 3 is in pre production. CA seems to be going for a fully transparent dev cycle in regards to med 3 so as to gain some good will back.
They made an 1h stream where they showcased the pre production of the game and the things that they are fucking arround with in the new engine. And showed a good chunk of the campaign map, which still in very early development (still only with flat colors and some shit and some parts have nothing at all). and some of the mechanics they tinkering with for med 3, like being able to actually place castles and ports anywhere on the map.
They said that they were going to make one of those streams to show case the state of the game regularly, starting next year, so that they can get player feedback starting from pre production. Which makes me thing that they are really desperate for getting some good will back.

they'll do one or two, say they need to reprioritize but will totally for sure absolutely bring back the regular updates when they get past a particular speedbump, and then never do it again. never trust a company's words on what they "will" do; that's how you get shafted. CA has been a fucking dumpster fire leaving products to rot since Empire, and they've only gotten substantially worse since then.
