Reminder that the foundation of the ideologies of the political left is subjectivity. Nothing is true. Everything is permissible. Therefore there are no objective definitions of anything. Therefore any word means anything they need it to mean at any time. Therefore things which are not censorship ARE "censorship" because saying "censorship" evokes an (objective) feeling in onlookers, who are then swayed by the misuse of the term toward the leftist's goals.

If you're so fucking stupid you think you need a government to take care of you, just commit a felony and go to jail forever or something. The shackles of law ought to be thrown off. Let invalids and idiots be preyed upon or sheltered by businesses and charities respectively (or maybe even their own families, as horrible and radical as that sounds). Legislation feeds the beast that argues that "well you don't NEED the ability to defend yourself" and "well, as a baker you have absolutely no right to refuse to create a cake celebrating faggotry" and "well, you have no right to ingest this, that or the other thing" and a myriad of other horrible fucking things. According to the principles of the Founding Fathers; The governments purpose is not to fucking babysit retards, it's purpose is not to redistribute wealth, it's purpose is not to decide what goods and services are good for a person or people. It's purpose is to protect our natural fucking rights and prevent invasions. Regulating VIDEO GAMES is neither of those fucking things. Also as an aside here, corporations are a governmental concept and don't you ever fucking forget it.
It sure does seem like a good idea to have the beast punish your enemies but the power of government is like the ring of power. Don't be tempted you fucking idiots, it has to be cast back into the fires where it was wrought.

Yeah the Japs have their issues as well, but our industry is still worse than theirs. Like they deliver quality shit like Ys 8, Nier Automato, Virtual On, Yakuza Zero, Sonic Mania, Nioh, Xenoblade 2, etc.
That's not to say nothing we don't have good games. Cuphead, Ruiner, Hat in Time, Battle Chasers, etc. However our titles are lacking when compared to the shit coming out of Japan. Where's the next new game that takes risks and kicks ass like Prototype, Titanfall 2 or Mirror's Edge? They come in so rarely and are usually fucked over by their own publishers so they can get more resources for the next Call of Duty/Battlefield/Asscreed/Skyrim. Western games are too obsessed with big empty worlds rather than a fun ultimately linear single player experience. Ironically Japan is largely to blame for these issues, mostly Reddit but also Japan.

Naturally. I had a gay lecturer trying to become a prof who was openly Marxist and walked around proudly about this fact. He then gave class to a class full of "Africans" who viciously mocked his sexuality. So to fix this he gave a large test to the entire class for the next period and said it would count a lot for our end of year mark going on a twitter tirade after the class for a couple of days. "NOW DO YOU THINK ITS FUNNY?" "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS CAME FROM PEOPLE WHO ALSO REPRESENT OPPRESSED MINORITY!" He stood around smugly when the test came. Surprise, surprise non of the niggers showed up for the test and mocked him in the next class because of his hissy fit and just went to the head of facility and talked about how unfair this test is etc.They continued to mock him the mockery got so bad the tutor gave the class for the rest of the semester. Things like "Antigone and natural law… HEY! Is this actually relevant or is this some of that gay stuff again because then I am leaving, we don't have to listen to this. We don't want to hear about your boyfriend Antony" things like this is what a lecture sounded like for 50 minutes. We worked through 5 pages in 3 separte classes. He quit and is now a practicing lawyer again after only one year of lecturing and a lot less vocal about his politics on twitter and is not so openly Marxist anymore. Wonder if he changed his political leaning or just shuts up about it.

The problem isn't what they're spending the money on, but how they're spending it. Nobody cares if people send checks to Tencent or Zynga in return for nothing, the problem arises when they operate under the delusion they're getting something for their money by pouring cash into a slot machine.

I don't even care about that. Let the fleece the retards if they so wish. My problem is that these companies don't differentiate between customers. You're all just $$$ to them, so they want to start shoving this microtransaction shit into games that I used to like and ruining them - because you DO have to significantly alter the gameplay in order to force a grind where it doesn't belong that the player is then encouraged to pay to bypass.

If you actually looked up anything about microtransactions you would find that more than 95% of players don't even buy them in gatcha games. It's a very small percentage of whales that make up for these people. These whales will spend an insane amount of money on one game because of their addictive personalities or disorders. They're banking on sapping money from these people and it's a very successful business.

It's because loot boxes fall under gambling yet are sold as though the games don't have gambling. The rule is already enforced but publishers are pretending loot boxes aren't gambling. They realize the AO rating will kill many of their sales since AO games can't be sold on Steam or consoles. That's why they're trying to pretend loot boxes aren't gambling.

It's a huge problem for them. They didn't expect a sudden backlash to lootboxes after getting nicely settled with it. AAA companies are so used to getting all that money from lootboxes and have built themselves around it. Just look how much money they throw around without a care. Yet they can still make a profit on it. That's how profitable this stuff is and why they couldn't give a shit if the average gamer hates them because the whales are who they are after. If their games become AO, it will be a huge blow to them and they will be forced to make games that are purchased more due to quality instead of how good they are at capturing the addictive nature of consumers. But AAA games aren't known for quality any more so they have to brain wash people into being interested with a mass amount of advertising.
What's even more frustrating about this is that consumers could have grouped together and shut down most of EA's bullshit whenever they did something very anti-consumer but they were too busy defending them to care. If people stopped EA when they first implemented things like season passes, then no other dev would have followed their trail.

The most insidious problem with RMT, pay2win, freemium, lootboxes, mobile/socialshit, and their ilk, is the subtle redefinition of norms. By making people think that it's perfectly normal for computer games to be played like a raffle drawing, they've been able to crowd out something as simple as paying for a game and playing it.
It doesn't even matter whether or not these things are genuinely appealing to practically any significantly large demographic, because a tiny number of whales are enough to secure the finances of this garbage.
It's no coincidence that this coincides with the high concentration of non-core demographics (females, seniors, very young children) in such non-games, which both allows developers to pretend we don't matter, and to further ensure such new inexperienced demographics are isolated from ever encountering real vidya.

That chart is useful if you take it in reverse.
While theres roughly a 50% gender ratio in the population, males are predominantly gamers (say 65% vs 35% to pull numbers from my ass). Thus the popular female games are the ones you want to avoid for profit because males are more likely to buy sports games, for example.
Sure you can get 90% of females playing your puzzle game, but I'd rather have the 2%F/98%M sports game as my product when the populations are 2000 females vs 100000 males

That's not exactly true. The "meaningful" part of freedom of speech or the First Amendment is the freedom of the press, which is to say the right to disseminate a dissenting opinion to the general public. As you say, individuals have always had their opinions and a village of 300 people isn't going to out one of their own for getting a little tipsy and voicing a few choice words about the king's new taxes. But that sort of "freedom" doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things because you cannot assemble a group of dissidents with the proper agency to oppose the established government without freedom of the press. People who published dissenting opinions were usually cracked down on harshly.
