    Overwatch will spend it's entire existance trying to justify itself.

    Say whatever numbers you want. The gameplay looks just fine to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNq4nTA3eMg Also, why would Pharrah need to rocket jump? She has a jetpack to fly with. Just because the maps and objectives are similar to TF2, doesn't mean the gameplay is. Every...

    Poll: How do you personally feel about the term cisgender?

    I'll continue to use the term normal. When 90% or so of a species has something in common, it's just the normal thing about them. Being "Cis" is to be normal for the human species. Being heterosexual, is to be normal, for the human species. If you want to be clinical, accept the fact that to...

    Poll: More punishing; Death Penalty or Life in Prison

    It amuses me the number of people that sympathize with a man convicted with mass killings. Even if you have reservations about the court system potentially convicting an innocent man, this hypothetical says his guilt is not in question. It's 100% true, no room for what if's. So many want to...

    Poll: More punishing; Death Penalty or Life in Prison

    Worse for him? Life in prison. What I'd want? Given your options, I'd have him immediately taken out back after he's sentenced and have a bullet put in the back of his head. It doesn't matter what punishment you use, it's not going to deter criminals anyway. Save the taxpayers the hundreds...

    Can We Stop Climate Change While Still Living Comfortably?

    It's essentially too late to change anything. We might be able to slow the change with drastic measures, but it's too late to stop it. Here, this clip sums up our chances nicely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CXRaTnKDXA

    Game of Thrones Season 4 Ep 3 Review "Breaker of Chains" - Rape & Betrayal

    My wife's fantasies would like to have a word with you. As would a large number of the women's romance novels. Nothing ever condones rape, but the concept that the victim ends up enjoying her/himself is a very real thing.

    Ground Zeroes Rape Apologists Baffle Me

    Again, I said *real-life women*. I've known women that didn't break 5' and had a very slender physique, and they were well into their 20's. Call it whatever you want, but you're insulting women that actually look like that. Just admit you don't like petite women and move on, no reason to try...

    Ground Zeroes Rape Apologists Baffle Me

    That isn't entirely implausible. Rape is a horribly traumatic experience and causes psychological damage. It's entirely possible that someone could develop feelings for her assailant. Hell, look at many women's romance novels. A ton of them show that exact effect. Some guy wants a woman so...

    The Colbert Retort

    Sigh. Crap like this is just as racist and bigoted as the things you campaign against. For reference, hating on the "majority" makes you just as bad as people who hate on people in the "minorities".

    Major Changes In Youtube Involving Let's Players

    An excerpt from the US copyright law's doctrine of "fair use": http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html Now, Let's Plays do technically violate this act however. Also from the same page: The originally quoted poster is correct. Using clips from a game for reviews and the like are...

    What's your favorite video game of all time?

    Mass Effect 2: When I first got to the suicide mission, I was really psyched up for it. The music, the direction, the execution, all of it left me on edge with adrenaline pumping, and an early mistake about what classified as a techie(I was still thinking in ME1 terms and thought Mordin was...
