To my amusement I sound similar to Crispin Freeman Alucard from Hellsing whenever I actually try to speak proper for once.
Ironically here's a voice I did for a Blue haired Vampire Pimp who is modeled after Alucard.

Star Wars inspired song, but it sounds more like One Piece

They're just consoooomers. Ghost in the Shell SAC 2nd Gig aptly described those people as "Complacent consumerists" although GIts was describing Japan but it works just as well for Americans.
My self insert in the Heretic Hydra game (which includes that Citadel Hoe shit as a prelude. It's actually called Citadel De Laputa because I'm an idiot who thought Laputa meant floating castle lol! Thanks Japan for teaching really shit Spanish.) has a piece of dialogue that accurately sums these people up.
This isn't the whole quote but it is directly talking about internet keyboard warriors.
(yes I use Ai art, who cares it looks close enough to my actual art. It's due to ai, I now have the time to
do political faction based plot like Silver Case since I don't have to waste weeks just to draw one character.)
I basically have the same exact criticism about modern society that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 had. XC3 called themMax Masters:
Quid Pro Quo.
I need you & you need me to help break through this oppressive
system of lies that we call reality. Truth shall set you free?
Hell no mothafucka, we're entrapped by the truth because we abide
by absolutes. The Ahrimanic collective consciousness have no
such restriction for they live upon a foundation of infinite relativity.
Carmilla, that Espadia whore who you thought was your friend.
She shapes truth into our prison. The prison is our abode.
Slaves to the system, yet we beg for more because we dwell within
a hell of 'Those who live in the Eternal Now' & all they care for
is their next hit of instant & constant stream of gratification.
Satisfaction is their virtue, they derive morality through virtue.
Our existence as glitches inside of the Beast,
serves as an eternal reminder to the congregate
that their Utopia isn't real, or at least not yet. Not until we're dead.
"The Eternal Now or the Endless now.
I'm sure the XC online fanbase disagrees with that but they're just like the modern Persona fanbase in that nearly nobody on mainstream internet (especially that Max Derrat idiot, he's right wing and I still think he's a dumbass.) knows what they're talking about.
For fuck's sake, the Xeno fanbase thinks that Xenoblade 2 is about Transgenderism using the Blades as allegory?
If XC2 has anything to do with trans, it's as an aftereffect of its references to Valentinianism.
This is exactly why I just don't really bother with internet vidya gaem discussion these days.
It's a waste of time when you realize that it's just clowns arguing against jesters and not a single one of them are arguing points that are actually inside the damn game.
You could simply just stop by an actual Valentinian like The Alchemist Sarah Elkhardt or whatever her name is, Thy beautiful Gabi Kovalenko or Angela's Symposium and POOF you suddenly come across normal attractive women (Alchemist looks like a dude but she's a Lesbian so whatever.) who could easily destroy every single damn gamer in a debate as to what those games were talking about if they actually played games.
It seems to me that those who stay within the gaming sphere to talk about Teh deepeR mEaNinG of GaEMs, do so because they know that they can't compete outside of gaming. That's especially true for twitter, reddit, & 4chan warriors.
I had this annoying argument at /v/ about 2 years ago where I was saying that Jrpgs actually treat spirituality & religion as a real thing that you experience. Final Fantasy 7 & Xenogears being some of the most obvious examples.
Jrpgs will almost always base their entire games off of a specific religious philosophy that the entire game built itself around. Whereas Wrpgs treat religions the same exact way as they treat their politics & sexual identities, as a fashion statement or an accessory.
As usual, the /v/irigin argued at me from a materialist perspective when I was specifically making a statement about the world that exists outside of Plato's cave.
What did this 4chan chud do? (He was a chud, he mistook me for a Leftist which happens all the time in the gaming sphere.)
He argued that I don't play enough Wrpgs because nearly all of them have religions where you can directly worship the gods & even physically talk to them.
I'm like, that wasn't my argument motherfucker. I didn't get a chance to reply since it's one of those /v/ threads that was insta-locked. Look at something like Valkyrie Profile, while not entirely accurate to Norse mythos, you can tell that the entire cosmology is shaped around it. The entirety of Valkyrie Profile is the mythos itself, and all those within the game are emanations from the original founding idea of VP.
Koudelka does a swell job of constructing a world based off of Theosophy where you play as the daughter of Madame Blavatsky, but who the fuck has played Koudelka? Koudelka was interesting because you're paired up with a Catholic Priest. Who I like to imagine is the same priest from Carpenter's Prince of Darkness. They have basically the same story, they struggle with the fact that their faith is fake and has zero protection against evil influences... JUST LIKE REAL LIFE lol!
Every Xenoblade that I've played so far also follows this trend where the religion it's based off of is treated as 100% real to the point that the final boss is usually God(Demiurge not the actual God.) and the entire world gets destroyed & falls apart after the lead God is killed because the entire fabric of their existence came from a god. It doesn't matter if it was a demiurge, it's still powerful enough to create all life within its jurisdiction through mere thought.
Outside of Planescape Torment, where have I ever actually seen that much metaphysical thought put into a Western game? Honestly I think the only one that kinda sorta does that is Disco Elysium which many argue is the Planescape Torment of the current era. I think it's way better than PT imo. PT is fucking boring, Torment just has hot big titty big butt chicks going for it. It's easier for me to get into Disco Elysium because a lot of the conflicts center around trying to talk down socialist gangsters & capitalist psycho-soldiers from killing you on the spot. The inter-personal conflicts in Disco are far more relatable to me. I understand having to think quickly on your feet on what you should say, in order to not get shot by angry commies, fascists, neoliberal super soldiers.
During that era I was directly involved in the culture war. Not of my choosing. It just happened because I happened to be hosted on the same server as the former identity of a 6'4 troon so I leaked it to the chans around the time of gamergate.I joined your forum in 2017, post-Gamergate, and based my posting tone on the tone of the forum itself, which was primarily about "culture war shit." I agree with you that is just a form of television (bread & circus) for cannon fodder, but anytime I posted anything more thoughtful nobody other than you ever fucking responded.
As for /pol/ I only acknowledge the Neoplatonist era of /pol/. The only ones who actually seem to have brains.
A lot of people during that era were trying to convince me to do that jootoob grift shit but I have a policy to never say anything political on video.
As I said, I pay culture wars lip-service but I normally use culture wars to talk about what I actually want to focus on. I recall one time, I wanted to talk about how different social-economic backgrounds reflect your politics and I used examples of childhood friends I had. (We're all Military.)You have to understand that the posting tone and style of the forum (any forum) is set by the most active or prominent user, which on this forum is you, since you made it.
It's a like how everyone copied Pleasureman on MPC, since he owned it, except unlike Pleasureman you're actually interesting and not an autistic faggot.
One is an Hispanic who became a rapper. The other is a White Protestant guy who became a youtube celeb who has over 9 million subs. It's weird because I never hear about him on mainstream internet and I don't think anyone here has ever heard of him. Even though he has 9 million subs (actually 8.98 milly but that's close enough.), he's still an active & popular channel, still a chad & he is still TDS as hell but for some reason there's never any controversy around him.
Well the point I was making is that in the USA, The Liberal party is mostly composed of the lower class or poorer people (Hispanic guy) and the ultra mega rich New England Huwite boi types like the youtuber Neoliberal Chad. I believe that he's Neoliberal in the truest sense, in that he'll suddenly drop his TDS if it somehow became more profitable for him to suck Trump's dick.
Then you have someone like me who's caught in the middle. I'm the 'bad guy' who has to checkmark myself into the richest available slot which is $100k range.
It sounds rich and it probably was but it's poor as fuck now.
The problem is the Mega Rich Utube Chad guy can easily point to people like me as
"Those rich people are abusing the system!"
Which causes types like the Hispanic Rapper guy to side with the Mega Rich Asshole into fucking me over
with their political coalition when in reality the Mega Rich White dude is actually fucking both of us over but I'm the only one who's smart enough to see through that. I can't explain the reality to the poor fuck, because the poor fuck just views me as a rich guy when I'm a poor fuck compared to the Mega Rich NeoLiberal who's fucking over both the poor & the middle/upper middle class.
That's what I wanted to talk about 2 years ago, what's actually at the center of American politics, but It got turned into another thread about trannies, and I was like how the fuck did we get here? I was talking about something completely different. To be fair, the Right was really paranoid of troons back in 2022 so there was a lot of communities within the right who were starting to have the same reaction as me & got sick & tired of hearing about transgenders all the time. I'm from the mindset that everything is an Egregore. The only way to
slay an egregore is to forget that it even exists. Talking about how much you hate an egregore just feeds it and makes it grow stronger. That's how Trump got so huge. Nobody would shut the fuck about him so now he's like a living legend or nightmare, myth where it doesn't matter who the human being is, we only notice the large influence of his egregore and that tentacles of all it touches.
You guys don't have to do that though. At the time I was mad about the culture wars, but if you guys want that then go on ahead. This site does look boring without the culture wars crap. So long as it doesn't cause this embarrassing harassers shit.
Really the problem is I just need to find a better outlet, which I will through video games. (Only this first game will be on shitty rm2k3 because that's what the original build was made on. My 2nd game is using a diablo engine that I plan to customize the shit out of and turn into a Dragon View Dragon Force hybrid base in the same universe as Heretic Hydra.)
In that "Citadel of the whore" game which is now called Heretic Hydra or at least that's the name of the universe. (Heretic Hydra is an anthology.)
I have a setting called 'Never Stillness' inside an Italian inspired city called Angel Queens (Los Angeles & NYC) formerly known as Angel Heights where the main conflict revolves around a skeleton-crew Police department trying their hardest to police a city that's been completely overrun with gang & mobster violence due to the influence of Philanthropist Powerbrokers who are using the gangs or lower class to slowly destroy the middle & mid upper class with the only defense that the midclass have left is a crap ass Streets of Rage & Mad Bull 34 inspired police force who are barely hanging on by a thread since they already got raided & most of them killed by the leading managerial government who are also enriching themselves with the Mega Rich Powerbrokers.
It's the type of stories that you used to see all the time back in the 1980s. Back when they talked about real bad guys, and not just pointing random fingers at people that dared to breathe differently.
I am going to retire this account, and start over with a new one since I just want to post the games, and I do plan to make several.Anyway, I'm not blaming you (or anyone), I'm just saying your posts really decide what everyone else is going to talk about. If people ignore that, then we can just moderate it, but it's up to you on how you want that done. We've generally continued in your tradition of not moderating anyone for any reason (discounting basically this one thread due to the nature of it), but we can throw that out the window if you want.
Nah don't leave it up to me. The few places that I somewhat frequent online are run by Boomers & Gen X, and they are extremely authoritarian when it comes to banning people.(They're not what I would call political but they do hate the Left more than they hate Right. They just think that the Right are stupid & complacent.)
At the same time, I admit that their banning practices led to an efficient functioning community with nearly no distractions due to the banning.
This place is quite different though. Most of us are Millennials, Zoomers & a handful of Gen X. To impose a banning system would deplete whatever was left.
While I actually do behave in those extremely moderated boomer spaces I'm talking about, it's mainly because I'm learning shit and when I'm learning I don't feel like making fun of anyone because I'm too busy absorbing information.
It's fine to talk about cultural wars in a limited capacity, within the air that it's just funny goyslop to laugh at.
It's only when culture wars is treated like a religion or an actual oppressive threat that it starts to bother me.
What I got really annoyed at is how I'm treated like I was endorsing Communism or something just for mentioning a troon, who I believe is normie-tier and is a Libertarian at most. Who even raged at the Dead Rising remake because it censored all of the anti-Communist rants that was in the original game. Well just outraged at the censorship, for modern audiences in general.
That's what always puzzled me, how come nobody gives a shit when you bring up Maxmillian Dood when that guy is a legit California styled Leftist performative-Communist who has actually banned (indirectly through his moderators who agree with his philosophies) pro fighting game players from his community because their political views were too right wing or libertarian.
Oh and for the record, I don't have a problem with real Communists. Who honestly don't really exist on the internet any more. Most of them have been banned & deleted from the internet like Robert Lindsay, the blogger. (honestly that will happen to me one day and I'm not even a commie.) Although Rob is a Communist, he was also extremely anti-Woke.
When I say I "woke", I'm specifically referring to the legalized corporate entity that businesses are forced to abide by.
The original Woke was basically Tupac Shakur or Huey Freeman, most of these corny internet Karens are the furthest thing from Tupac Killuminati type of woke.
This guy was a marxist, but I consider him as commie-adjacent.

This guy is probably The Last Communist (on the internet) left standing, but everyone thinks that he's Alt-Right lol.

Real communists are almost always socially Conservative and they get mistaken for 'chuds' anyway.
Breadtubers aren't real communists, they're capitalists and are far more aligned with NeoLiberals, whether they realize it or not. NeoLibs are the types who try to accuse me of being rich & hateful when they're the ones who own multiple mansions & inviting illegal aliens over, just to use them as an unofficial slave-caste. That's the NeoLibs. That's not me. I don't even want the illegals here.
Real Communists are almost always poor.
I do remember that site, I used part of its graphics in one of those cow trailers. That one pic with a bloody keyboard computer, it came from that site. That site is so forgotten that even I forgot about it. I'd get loads of hatemail at the original megaten site I made because everyone said it sucked. What's weird is that I used the same approach for K7 but got the exact opposite reaction.This paragraph— I took this to mean that you had made an SMT shrine prior to making Killer 7 SINdicate, and then deleted or merged it into Killer 7 SINdicate. If that's incorrect, please give me the proper history. I only told him that because I thought it explained why your response and interpretations of killer7 were so different from the internet at large (both back then, and especially now where people are dramatically more retarded) and I thought that was worth mentioning because it's interesting.
I don't really think I used occultism to deduce K7. I just actually read what was in the game, which is of an extremely political nature. Political as in political documents like Man Machine Interface. Ghost in the Shell MMI is about corporate warfare.
An amusing part about Ghost in the Shell's setting is that world war 3 & 4 were fought due to corporations becoming the new kings. That's what the NRx is about, the corpo is the monarch, and the security troops & the employees function as a new form of feudalism, but instead of farmers, you're a lame cashier. It's a god awful endgame but it's way better than what we currently have which is rule by unseen managerial oligarchs who hide behind the veil of democracy.
I explain this because Ghost in the Shell takes place in a world where two world wars were fought so that the military can regain control of nations as the dominant corporation or king. Although in GITS I think corpos & military function as checks & balances against each other due to the conclusion of WW4.
I just find it amusing because the story to GITS is very realistic but most people don't realize that, they just think it's dumb femme fatale animu slop with scantily clad women.
If people actually paid attention to what they read, they'd see that a lot of these stories are talking about something that's completely different to what's been shown through its aesthetics.
K7 makes it clear that it's a Ghost in the Shell or Metal Gear Solid style espionage narrative. What's going on in K7 is basically an adventure story version of Phantom Doctrine's gameplay. In Phantom Doctrine, you're constantly changing aliases and 'killing' your past self to take on new identities.
It's just a function of PD's gameplay whereas in K7, that's the actual story.
K7's plot isn't that deep at all. The reason why it resonates so much with us are all of the spiritual elements within the game. Kinda like how even The Sopranos has plenty of spiritual & metaphysical elements to it
that for some reason only the actor who portrayed ChristaFuh Moltisanti can see it, or understand it. (he's a Buddhist I think. He has his own Yoga channel.)
The rest of the cast just assumes that Sopranos is your typical mobster story. It's not, if it were then I wouldn't like it.
The problem is that with most gamers, they don't understand how to read stories. They think of writing as just the physical actions of a plot. Which is why most game plot summaries are just describing to you the object-oriented goals of the game.
That's how you get something like the original Final Fantasy 7 PSX which is an individuation story using Sephiroth as Cloud's repressed ID & shadow-self. Since gamers are legit media-illiterate, they completely ignore all of the context within the game so all they see is super badass Dragon ball Z story where two pretty boys kill each other with their long swords. I bet modern day internet thinks of Final Faggotry 7 as a veiled homolust story using the swords as symbolism for their lust of each other.
It would also completely ignore the plot within the game where it's shown that Cloud & Sephiroth barely have anything to do with each other. Seph is a metaphor. That's what made FF7 such a mature plot during its era and still is in the modern era since even the remake completely misses the point of ff7.
Within the gaming community, I'm constantly labeled as lacking "media literacy" when I'm probably one of the only ones who actually has enough literacy to get most of these plots.
When you get that enough times, you just move on. It's not worth it, there's a reason why gaming sucks ass these days. It's exactly what the gamers want. Just Consooom product, then be ready for next Consooomable product.
BTW MG2, MGS1 - MGS3 has legendary writing. Even the shit that I used to make fun of, I realized that my pops has the same exact mannerisms as Snake. So when Snake repeats a single word he does it for the same exact reason my pops does, they both want you to completely elaborate on the subject. It's crazy just how accurate to the military that Kojima's MGS trilogy was. I haven't played MGS1 since I was a teen in Japan and I'm amazed by just how intense that game's atmosphere & story are. Too bad it's the only 3d Metal Gear game that had that cyberpunk military Ghost in the Shell vibe.
