Incline Josh Sawyer appreciation station

What a fucking loser. Jesus

 

[BlackheartXIII]

Now that Neil Gaiman got metoo'ed, Does Sawyer is a valid target now, or he is not prolific enough for creepy misdemeanor smut articles?

 

[Haba]

Soyer can't get his dick up, hasn't been able in decades.

So no need to worry about that.

 

[Butter]

Sawyer has a button under his desk that locks his office door. He traps interns in there and forces them to watch as he fixes bicycles.

 

[itsme]

I think Chuck Norris is better than Soyer.

Sawyer doesn't come across to me as a dom, and unless he's significantly changed since 2017, he's a monogamist, not even a lothario like Avellone. There's nothing there to cancel.

If Feargus goes, his job might be on the line if people start wondering why they're paying this guy $200k/year to not work on anything in particular, unless the people high up at Microsoft really want him available for Fallout: Spinoff if Bethesda were to ever agree to let that happen.

Sawyer tend to surround himself with females gamedevs , journalists and NGO activist, IRL and virtually. It's indicate lothario tendencies although filtered by a limp dick male feminist prism. awkward filtration is inevitable.

He prefers the company of women for friends, it's an autism thing.

 

[BlackheartXIII]

It's an horny libtrad thing. the autism contributes to the awkwardness.

Soon they will metamorphose him into this (without the muscles and 5 feet shorter):

 

[Major_Blackhart]

So he's still a fucking loser. Good to know. Good to know.

What do people at Obshitian think of him nowadays? Anyone have any inside info?

 

[Bulo]

Most memorable line in the game lmao

 

[Major_Blackhart]

Yeah but I was thinking who writes this dialogue.

Interesting seeing how a libtard internalizes this otherwise funny line

 

[Major_Blackhart]

He's just a sour milk-face having divorced Maddow loving lesbian who has a "Male Feminist" bumper sticker on his shitty Fiat and cheesy faux recycled plastic flowers on his noir-hipster bicycle.

Explains the dryness of his characters.

"I avoid writing characters like that"

Meanwhile

I thought Cook-Cook was disgusting, and even more disgusting b/c his initial premise in the region doc was 1-2 lines that had a disturbing focus on rape and abuse.

(FYI, if lines were written for Cook-Cook, I don’t think Josh wrote them. He did, however, provide the sentences that gave the direction for Cook-Cook’s character, and I suspect the writer tried to uphold them based on the direction given.)

But yeah, I thought Cook-Cook was garbage design, narratively and otherwise. Not only because of the references, but also because those few sentences were his character, which makes the rape and abuse references even worse because the writer/designer hasn't given any thought to the references nor is there any depth beyond shock value.

If someone came to me with a character that was solely “so this NPC I’ve designed is a rapist”, I would have the same reaction – I would have asked “why?”

What a fucking loser. No wonder Roguey gets wet whenever his name gets mentioned.

 

[La vie sexuelle]

Ah, non cringe, non sexually charged characters he likes...

Via Gamerant:

Players can find Mirke within the courtyard area inside Fort Deadlight, though, one will need to complete a quest in order to have the green-skinned fighter join one's party. The associated quest that needs to be taken care of before obtaining Mirke is called "Blow the Man Down", and, conveniently, can also be found at Fort Deadlight.

It's a 160 year old Sea Shanty, you should be more offended that they broke the fourth wall of their fantasy setting by naming the quest after it.

 

[La vie sexuelle]

I'm not particularly offended. The first Pillars upset me because I didn't expect something so bland and stupid in its attemps of smartnes. I wasn't even planning on playing the second one, but somehow it came along for free or something; I never finished it, because seeing how embarrassing themes were now injected into this bland design, which today we can compare with Veilguard, I simply lost interest and didn't touch anything that came out of Obsidian.

Better question is why would any raider NOT be a rapist. The entire point of being a raider is to RAID. All real life raiders like Vikings, Mongols and Arabs, are well known for stealing, raping and enslaving. What a dumbass question to ask. The question that should be asked is "And?". And the answer is that "he also eats them".

 

[Butter]

Every faction requires an interesting philosophy and nuanced political beliefs. It's bad writing to have raiders who raid things for no other reason than because they can. There has never been an example in history of pirates or war bands that do exactly that.

 

[Tyranicon]

It's a mixture of corporate-style sterile goodthink and the sheer lack of life experience for some creatives.

Quite honestly, most modern creatives who work on post-apo settings have no idea how disney they are making it. I'm not saying all these games and films, etc have to subscribe to McCarthy of The Road fame's brand of savagery, but watering down the primary premise of post-apo to appeal to an audience that doesn't really care for it is stupid.

It reaches hilarious levels like in TLOU2 where entire populations have to hold up in fortified towns as protection against raiders, but two lesbians can live on some isolated homestead, without so much as a sturdy fence, no problem.

 

[Dark Souls II]

Exactly what distinguishes REAL role-playing RPG games like, say, Black Souls or Black Souls II, from trash "SoyPGs" like Obshitian games. In real RPGs you can RAPE every single (female) NPC. Why? Because of two little things called "Choices & Consequences". Something a docile goycattle soy golem like Josh Soyer surely has never heard about.
