PSA. Send stuff to your local post office and then go pick it up.

For the uninitiated, the game was banned, not because of the gratuitous violence, extreme drug use, and themes involving fugue states, war crimes and cold war conspiracy,

But because of a scene depicting rape.

Except, the "depiction" was simply a character, from a pixelated top-down view, climbing onto the other character. No nudity, no thrusting - then...

The director yells "CUT!"

Turns out, it was a movie being filmed. So even within the context of the game, it wasn't rape, it was an abstraction of an abstraction, WITHIN an abstraction.

Ratings board are morons.

As an Aussie, I was lucky to have a friend gift this to me on Steam.

Changing your studios name doesn't change the fact that 343i is structurally bankrupt

You know, from a business standpoint, it makes financial sense NOT to log user traffic.

Reason one: plausible deniability. You can't give what you don't have.

Reason two: storage. Why the fuck would you keep logs, when it costs money to?

Reason three: these boots taste fantastic! (People generally don't enjoy licking boots).

Just thinking about how kinky it is that they're subservient to us. We tell them "no, you slutty little time zone, it's cold now, so we're gonna move the small hand back, and if you're good, we'll let you come an hour earlier in six months"

real people

Ew

I only consciously fantasise about people who don't exist.

Sometimes they aren't even people, they could be abstract concepts, like a time format, or a plan.

Sometimes I even fantasise about concepts of a plan.

You're not making the point you think you are.

I understand the implications of both.

I don't truly call Australian Aboriginals "Australians", I was being facetious.

Also, I call them "Native Americans".
