My best friend in 10th grade was always called ''Tamilan'' because he knew Tamil and had really dark skin. Real racism that is.

plus "warranty is void when seal is broken"...

Do you understand that those two things are not related? Do you understand that you can't blame video games on the acts of imbeciles?


I don't think so. In the end you are a censorship advocate.

Scour my past postings as you wish. NEVER have I posted a pro-censorship post.

I have freely - and quite painfully - decided not to play TW3 for the moment, because I feel solidarity with all my fellow gamers, but those liable to be met with unkindness, in particular. But more a persecution is cruel or actual in the real world, the worse I feel about it.

Read gaming press - The Withcer 3 is (almost ?) anonymously pushed for thumbs up and commercial success.

I boycott it personally because I dislike discrimination and think gaming studios should love their fans as much as they are loved.

Be it normal reaction in yer eyes - when the host country (Poland, or their constitutional court, in this case) shows hate for a group of persons (gays) - I actually except, ideally, a gaming studio to stand up for all their fans. When a pimple popping, slave raping Dethmold is written instead - I was pained.

Poland is the country of solidarnost in my eyes. Bold, contrarian, inclusive thinking.

There you go:

I am a Carelian in fact, and can tell you: just fish in Saimaa with nets, and you might kill a ringed seal of Saimaa. A pup most likely. I am against free fishing in lake Saimaa btw, and for protection of Saimaannorppa.

But throw a dead kuutti (= pup of the highly endangered ringed seal of Saimaa) on the table as you wish. You enjoyed Finnish universal education, and you plausibly game.

As much as your silence about Gauck pains me, so would your dismissal of school bullying.

But you go my boy (for non Finns, "Timppu" is masculine, highly likely). Finns still mostly dislike both Stasi and bullying, and agitprop about it only lights it up, eh. ;-) I like your style! But still, if you see anyone bullied, or Gauck detracted - act, now, already.


PS:

"Onko teidät muka koulutettu Prometheus-leirillä!
Nehän syövät lihavaan ja karvaiseen perseeseensä kaikki Saimaan kalat!"

I admit it was a bit hard to translate this whole gag on the go to my near and dear friend, not least because I had to giggle about the latent attitudes against the seal - but I am pro - saimannorppa after all... (ringed seal of Saimaa) Brought up in a Prometheus-camp maybe, and all that! :-p

Look, I am not sure of the political inclination of Polish government, but atributing those same views on a whole gaming studio for a single character is actually an insult to the people who worked on the game.

Look, an actual human was behind that hatchet job, cruel (in my eyes) characterisation. He or she wrote Dethmold. Had she or he cut the pimple popping or slave raping, I would not feel forced to await TW3 at bargain prices.

To call this (those) person into critical assessment is not an insult.

I do not think Tolkien, for instance, wrote in total levity; or without any criticism. Or dismissed it outright.

I simply wish CD Project RED were at this level. And if I, as their fan, should like them to write better and more inclusively - why would this be bad?

In fact I wish
