I like the people already asking for threads to be locked and people banned. They're just bringing their BSN behavior to the Wasteland 2 forum hoping to score brownie points and become popular, someone should tell them it's a different jungle...
I'm already doing that and I summon the entire force of the Codex army to stand with me in this groriousu effortu!
I guess I may finally register. Carefully though, because the thread could quickly actually become a flaming post as THEY start flaming and adding nothing to the discussion. Just laugh at them to destroy any shred of credibility they may have.

Come watch us take our sideshow act, featuring your favorite always-hilarious Codex memes, on the road!

Ugh, this is just embarrassing. Please stop.

Close the forum already.

Yes. Exterminatus.

Well what do you expect? To some of the pledgers this is the only time where they feel they can insert all the even more redardoed stuff that they could not hope to see from a AAA production.
When Fargo wrote "players' feedback" I don't think he meant...this...farce.

It's the internet. What the hell did you/he expect to happen? Rational discussion?

I think this is what happens when a viral hype machine stirs the manboons up into a frenzy. Most of them will lose interest after a while though.

Guys... just one thing. Try to be a *bit* more subtle about being Codexers, mkay? Don't bring over the memes, for starters. We need Fargo nice and friendly. :)

EDIT: Also, what FaChoi said. The trolls will soon lose interest, don't feed them.

Let's hope that this is just a PR stunt by Fargo, the whole you are all my boss now sounds disingenuous for a veteran like him.

Weird.

Anyway, I totally support this.

Is a troll truly a troll if they do not realize they are trolling? :obviously:

Ugh, that's a tough one. :p
I think that many of the people asking for stupid things on most of the threads aren't trolling. They're just that thick. The threads started by the DU look-alike are clearly trolling those morons and I find it disturbing and repulsive that some retarded knuckleheads on those threads have already started asking for threads to be closed. Fuck them! I understand playing nice with Brian, but those cocksuckers need to be confronted and put down quickly, before they turn the WL2 forum into another BSN.

Forum is still infested with biodrones. They want "fleshed out characters" and are creeped out by the thought of generating an entire party. ("B..b..but I don't CARE about those people!")

I think this has the potential to cause a lot of butthurt in the future.​

That would probably come from someone who wouldn't much like the gameplay itself but find that it suits a big character-driven story. The game will be what it will be, and if a customer isn't enjoying it just sell the thing used online.

On topic, I wish romances or questions of sexual preference never surfaced in video games. Game stories are fun to play through, but I prefer the developer's social commentary to be low key because it will just end up discoloring my experience of the game if I invest too much into that worthless banter (ie: I watch a movie or read for enjoyment, but a game's story can help facilitate/destroy the fun factor of playing a game).

Finally, just to be clear, I am neutral on the subject of sexual preference, but I wish dating sim gameplay and sexual content in games would just crawl back into the hole 'Gotcha' and its ilk came from.:mad:

Oh God. Exterminatus.

On the other hand...

I don't want LGBTQ romances and I don't want straight romances. For once, just this once, can we have a game that is about exploration, good combat and meaningful consequences without arbitrary romances and needless sexuality? Why does anyone in your party have to be straight or gay or lesbian or whatever else? Why can't they just be "people"?

:salute:

How will I know if the storekeeper is gay if I don't see his boyfriend around? I MUST KNOW

The funding barely ended and there are people wanting to use the game as their pet political project. Someone up there in the heavans must really fucking hate your guts, Codex :lol:

That's...that's not the Ausir that posts here, is it? The one from the fallout wiki? I like the guy and I don't believe he would write this sort of...stuff.

God damn those biotards. Is this sime sort of vengeance for our not liking their games? Must they spew their dreary stories of sexual frustration?
