Just WAIT for his reaction to the American Canal and Gay North Dakota

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

Oh but the media isn't biased guys. Totally

 

[Madflavor]

Modern day game journalists continuing to dig their own hole of irrelevancy.

 

[Mozzarella]

Ok? take the point off and give the score then the people will put the point back and realize the score, bold of you to assume people cant do math lol

 

[BigBeauford]

Something really needs to be done about game journalism, either that or companies need a new metric to follow.

Something is being done about it. We're all tuning it out, and these sites are dropping like flies one by one.

 

[SmokedMeat]

What if it is illegal to drill in the Gulf of Mexico but perfectly legal to drill in the Gulf of America and drilling began once the name was changed.

Still dumb?

Yes.

 

[ZoolNL]

Lol @ renaming hahaha

 

[Xtib81]

She will dock points? You mean He.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

"She"

IGN trying to become the next Wired I guess. That Wired Hogwarts Legacy "review" is the stuff of legends

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

You can cry in peace, alone.

 

[PeteBull]

Oh by the way:

Trans, She/They

 

[Mister Wolf]

Some weirdo dude doing weirdo things.

 

[rubik's dude]

So many people who never cared about the Gulf before, now suddenly care about it being renamed. Crazy how politics turn people into sheep.

 

[Grizzled Ghost]

What the fuck is she planning to review, Geoguesser?

When's the last time you saw The Gulf of Mexico labeled on an in-game map?

 

[[Sigma]]

I mean im not docking points, but I will never not call it Gulf of Mexico.

 

[tamago84]

Do it! For the memes

 

[peek]

Out of the loop on the whole name thing, but just looking at it for a second, gulf of america is technically more inclusive of other countries.

Both the US and mexico are in NA so... xD

People need to be more inclusive.

 

[Sooner]

On a Hot or Not, I dock a point for every woman if they have a penis.

 

[RetroGamingUK]

I mean im not docking points, but I will never not call it Gulf of Mexico.

Stop deadnaming Gulf of America

 

[bundylove]

Anither thread for the ignore list.

So much happier ever since i started ignoring these mental cases.

Not the Op , the person or topic the thread is about.

 

[cormack12]

Why is it always the blue hairs and trans?

 

[kingwingin]

I can’t even remember the last time I’ve seen the Gulf of Mexico referenced in a game. If ever

 

[Hookshot]

From too much water

to incorrectly named water

IGN has always been shit.

 

[Jormatar]

Oh by the way:

Trans, She/They

You only had to a glance at the small picture in OP to realise what's up LOL.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Why is it always the blue hairs and trans?

 

[MCasey]

This is just as stupid as changing the name to Gulf of America.

 

[daffyduck]

I'm in Mexico, yesterday displayed both

Serious question, do you care? US can call it one thing, Mexico can call it another, everybody else can call it whichever.

And another try for "points":

 

[Gamer79]

IGN is a cesspool for woke liberal ideology. It is a shame because I use to respect them. They are too much into politics and not enough into videogames. Reducing points because you do not agree with something is ludicrous.

 

[decisions]

Why is it always the blue hairs and trans?

I mean it's quite dark and simple right? They cannot confront the irreversible horror of what they have done in the case that transgender theory is wrong. They will go to extreme lengths to defend it because they have bet their entire life on it.

Ha... Never thought about that. Lol

There it is..only second post. I knew i had heard that name before lmao

 

[Rival]

Mental illness is a real problem in this world.

 

[Idleyes]

If anyone still doubts that their scores are completely arbitrary, here’s your proof.

 

[DeepEnigma]

These same goofballs were cheering on the tearing down of statues and renaming mountains, schools, bases, institutions, etc., from their goof-troop brand.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Serious question, do you care? US can call it one thing, Mexico can call it another, everybody else can call it whichever.

I don’t care at all. I don’t even know all the street names in my neighborhood.

While I agree that destroying statues was a poor decision from a record-keeping perspective, I can't understand why the victorious side would want monuments to those who tried to destroy them displayed on government property. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There is more nuance than that. There were brothers against brothers, friends against friends, etc.. Which is why they are there as a reminder, that in the end, the union was preserved.

They didn't stop there. They escalated it to removing WW2 president (FDR), Lincoln of all people, and the founding fathers like George Washington. And also, renaming a whole damned mountain.

Once again, goof-troop clowns.

 

[MetalFreak]

So basically he went from looking like an ordinary bloke to look like Buffalo bill from Silence of the lambs....

 

[Js562]

Ok TJ

Still dumb?

Yes still dumb, if not even more dumb.
It means you are changing a name to skirt around a law/policy rather than going through the appropriate means for changing law/policies.

So, the mod stealthily changed the pronoun in the title..

[hououinkyouma00]

Good thing I could care less about his opinions.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Good. Gulf of America is stupid as fuck. No one is calling it that shit lmao

There's also no reason to get upset about the name change.

 

[Z O N E]

Just like that, this reviewer and has now OFFICIALLY announced that their reviews are political in nature.

Congratulations, you played yourself.

 

[justiceiro]

Nobody has ever let this amount of soft power go to their head before afaik

...say that again?!

Some people can't see the irony on their own words.

 

[Danjin44]

This is why I trust my own taste and judgement above any of so called “professional” reviewers, user reviewers, steam reviewers and heck even opinion on gaming forums….all them driven by some kind of BS agenda or culture war nonsense.

Thankfully I played games long enough to know what game is for me regardless of what “score” it gets on reviews.

 

[SJRB]

What game mentions the Gulf of Mexico anyway?

Is this guy retarded?
