Aren't those all in the process of being shut down anyways?
So far just Azur Lane and Kancolle. (Neither of which I played.) Who knows about everything else... I think the larger ones are safe because there would be bigger push back. But closing AL and KanColle was easy because there were only like 3 posts a week in each and no one to really push back lol.

the summary is that they're safe for now, although some people in the general gacha thread were getting restless

Literally my stance is that the mods existence is fine, the real problem is with people dogpiling the community manager and trying to tell her how to feel.
Yeah I think that it's fine if she doesn't like that stuff and it's even fine if the subreddit moderators don't want that stuff around, that isn't a reason to be assholes to the moderators and the CM.
The mod maker and the players that want said mods should have just made a new subreddit dedicated to that stuff and moved on or moved their works to websites that host that stuff.
Liking porny stuff is ok, the issue is when people are assholes and try to force it on others that don't want it.


Also not sure if it's been posted but PoE2 is the fanatical star deal

Fanatical

kinda tempted to bite although I haven't played the first one yet, I was kinda hoping these games would come to game pass

edit: edited a bit of stuff to make it clearer when I meant moderators or the mod

In regards to the mod itself, i actually find the design more funny than sexy lol.
It's one of those things you'd expect to see in a "top 50 videogame babe"-ranking from the early 2000's. And god bless those are gone.

Then why even close them lol. Is it just because of that dumb pedo/gaf/era drama?

I'm totally out of the loop, why are they shutting down the threads? Are people posting rule 34 stuff?
As i understand they are now on the banned games list all of a sudden.

Looks succulent.

No of course not. Those people would be banned,

They're shutting down the threads because someone went around reporting them in the worst possible way (cherrypicking all the worst content) on a personal crusade.

So they ended up on the banned games list. Keep in mind, Azur Lane is rated PEGI-12 lol.

Does this have anything to do with the dude posting the chat logs from a Era FF Brave Exvius discord?

Probably. (Also screens were taken from PC-Era discord and Sales-Era discord.) My understanding is Era-Staff are beyond paranoid right now about it. And pretty much every Era-discord I'm in scrubbed chat logs or locked them away plus tightened up security.

I'm not worried personally because I don't say creepy shit about adolescent characters. It's literally that easy. So to me, it's kinda funny the paranoia of it.

Im in PC-Era Discord but I almost exclusively use it for shittalking Epic lmao. I only found out about the whole Era/Gaf thing after the chats got scrubbed.

I'm probably getting permed on Era for this: Total War subreddit explodes in drama after Moderators take down "sexy mods" for Three Kingdoms, under a new policy by CA

Literally my stance is that the mods existence is fine, the real problem is with people dogpiling the community manager and trying to tell her how to feel.

Now apparently I am a sexist troll though, because I don't find the Three Kingdoms mods offensive? :rolleyes:

... but I mean, I've been on the shitlist for a while and mods were looking for an excuse to perm me ever since the last PC-Era blowup. I'm gonna miss the FGO/Gacha community. I guess that's about it. :face-with-cold-sweat:
No.

Folks in the TW community complained about female generals in Rome II.

Now they're like, "You know what would make this game better? Tits on one of the better-known women in Romance of the Three Kingdoms!

And that's before I get into the problematic orientalism of it all.

I actually play Three Kingdoms, and Sun Ren just came of age in my Sun Jian campaign.

Yeah, that situation was regrettable. As if those eggplants didn't have enough enemies already. Luckily the Discord server I frequented was low profile enough and we're pretty tight-knit so there's little chance of any rogue elements/infiltrators. We're pretty good at self-policing in our #lewd channel as well. A blessing in disguise, I suppose.

198x is sending Steam keys to backers through a site made by Rami Ismail intended as a distribution platform for review keys and promo copies. You also have to indicate for which outlet you work for when asking for the key and all requests must be reviewed by a human. Other than it being completely confusing it’s not even working since I’ve tried to request my key twice since last night.

As much as I am against crunch, having to wait a year for a port is still disappointing. For that matter, what exactly are Iron Galaxy working on that they can't get ports out in say 6 or so months' time? Surely porting a game shouldn't take long with a 100 employee team?

Era was a mistake and like some vocal mc members prefer epic talk in a separate thread I'd like to never have to (over)read about that mistake of a forum here again.

You can tell me when era comes out of puberty but not before, thank you very much.

Gamepass, two questions:
Cloud Saves Y/N?
Do Cloud saves expire if you lapse the sub?

My guess is no as you don't need xbox live gold or xbox pass ultimate to use cloud saves, so I would guess the same applies to PC users (?) and you're basically using the normal Xbox Live service like Xbox players for that.

if we get that but never get Cold Steel III I'm gonna laugh
Well to be fair Disaster Report runs on UE4 and is a much smaller game. NISA's last UE4 port Caligula was really solid. IIRC Durante worked on it too.

I hope they'll get the Caligula PC port team back for this.

I've now finished Masquerada and that was excellent. Highly recommended if you're looking for an excellent story with excellent characters in a fantastic world. Because boy was that good.
