Yes I agree, I just wanted to point out that IMO Starcraft 2 was not the first pc game with a good matchmaking system.

I remember good matchmaking in Warcraft 3 for srandard matches.

And I also remember having lots of fun on custom servers for CS, Half-Life, D2 etc. and not at all feeling like matchmaking was a required feature.

Indeed I have, why ?

Thanks !

Funny thing: on your screenshot, it looks like the Play Offline button is greyed out. But it’s just a visual thing and you can totally click on it, right ?

Looks like a nice ARPG, but it seems to integrate an “always online” bullshit requirement, can someone who actually has it confirm or rectify ?

Just finished Firewatch, and I’m a few hours in Outer Wilds. I enjoy having no way to really fail, and discovering the story bit by bit.

Started Torchlight 2 in coop with a friend living abroad, it’s fun to see a non-blizzard Diablo with a Warcraft 3 aesthetic. Still trying to figure out which mods we want in the long run.

And almost at the end of It Takes Two in couch coop with a friend, we’ve laughed a lot so far !

Off-topic only, has nothing to do with the content related to CP2077 and the muskrat

So, based on some comments here, it looks like I came across as trying to ban language, to forbid words, to restrict your free speech.

As stated in my original post, this was and still is not my intention. I have not attacked personally the persones using “cunt”, nor have I said no one should say that.

I just shared a reflexion, because that’s why I sign up on social media platforms.

I am happy that some people felt safe enough in this community to explain why they think my views are incorrect, I actually learned some things thanks to you.

I’m not trying to ban the “cunt” word from language - and if I was, it would be so laughable to think I could have that kind of influence.

I just believe that the words we use have an effect on people. And I think it’s worth it to sometimes pause and wonder which words we are using and if we can use better ones.

I’m not going to engage further on this topic in this channel, it’s probably not the most appropriate space.

You are right, I should not have assumed that.

And I should actually not have used this description, because vulvas are not exclusive to people Assigned Female At Birth, as another commenter pointed out.

Thank your for your very interesting opinion.

Thank your for your very interesting opinion.

Thank your for your very interesting opinion.

You are absolutely right, I should have thought of it. Thanks for the correction !

Sir Lora stuff ?

Off-topic below.

Btw, I saw some posters here still use the slur “cunt”.

It’s my understanding that depending on which country you’re from (eg Australia or UK) this slur might not carry a sexist connotation in the mainstream culture, so I don’t think any of you used it with the intent of being sexist.

Nevertheless, in the feminist circles I belong to, uskng a word that describes the genitalia of AFAB as a slur carries a sexist charge whether it was the intent or not. So we try to create new slur reflexes for ourselves and tend to use other words that do not carry an offensive charge towards a discriminated category.

Please do not take this as a personal attack or an attempt to tell you how to speak, I just think we can do better as a community if everyone spots the stuff they are the more sensitive to and explains to the others why they see a problem.

On-topic. Elon, please get lost in outer space in one of your stupid rockets.

Thanks for sharing ! Looks like the usual “small white male feeling powerful because he’s the boss” bullshit more than a problem specific to the gaming industry.

Anyway, unionizing should protect them better from these kind of abuse, which is good :)

I never wondered about the conditions of videogames workers, but I’m really happy that they get better thanks to this movement !

Yeah, I’ve got the same thing with playing previous games in the series. This summer I’ve tried playing BG1 and then BG2 prior to BG3’s release - and I did not go very far (did not like the UI).

Thank you so much for making it :)

Happy to help :)

Iel clearly has the most tractiin, enough to get included in one french dictionary recently.

“Elleux” does actually replace all uses of 3rd person plural.

Thanks for your support :)

I have no source for you, just personal experience. In my small circles (irl and online) which are not statistically significant, we usually use :

• “iel” for third person singular, used the same way as “they” in the singular form
• “ellui” also used for the third person by someone who wanted the feminin “elle” to come first
• “ol” is also used for the third person, mostly by people who want to get rid of the binary “il” and “elle” sounds of “iel”
• “elleux” for the third person plural, used the same way as “they” in its usual sense

Maybe this wikipedia page could be useful ?

Just FYI: from my experience as a native French speaker and a French resident, these neopronouns have a hard time existing outside militant and lgbtqi+ circles. Our most popular media (which are right-wing/conservative) regularly paint them as a problem, an attack on the “mothertongue” etc. and I’ve faced violent reactions from people I gave my pronouns to.

Kudos to you for including them in your signature !
