That's why i said "highlight".That’s not a quote
Whats with the fucking hostility?
Damn fine, tonight ill restart the fucking game and screencap the dialogue i didn't like. Jeez.
That's why i said "highlight".That’s not a quote
For the record, I'm not hostile, I'm just genuinely interested in what people think shows that the team/writer must be American. Genuine interest, no hate, I promise!That's why i said "highlight".

I do not make the same claim.For the record, I'm not hostile, I'm just genuinely interested in what people think shows that the team/writer must be American. Genuine interest, no hate, I promise!
hmm hmm aha.. did you like, watch any of those movies?Started playing quickly from the start, likely missed some things but here's an example:

So the game developers are actually mocking the lack of diversity of the books and movies that they are parodying.Started playing quickly from the start, likely missed some things but here's an example:

...That's it? You think the team is American because they made an obvious dunk about JKR? If you consider that a 'modern politically dusted hot take', I don't know what to tell you. Maybe observational humour just isn't for you, I guess. That's not a sign someone is American. It's a sign they're making a parody of something based on Rowling's works. I'd put it on par with changing SPEW to being about men's rights.Started playing quickly from the start, likely missed some things but here's an example:

Tell me how its not, also where i personally pointed to anything American.If you consider that a 'modern politically dusted hot take', I don't know what to tell you.
Ah irony, my FAVORITE.pearl clutching
Tell you how it's not a modern, politically dusted, hot take? Well, it's not modern for one thing. Bringing up that Cho is the only Asian character in Hogwarts, if not the entire series, has been a thing since she was introduced. It's a cold as fuck take. It's also not politically dusted, it's literally just a joke making fun of JKR. You'll notice that no one has said whether or not the school should be more diverse, just that it's surprising that a school that's for all of Britain isn't more diverse. Tell me how it is a modern, politically dusted, hot take.Tell me how its not, also where i personally pointed to anything American.
Ah irony, my FAVORITE.
Modern is a synonym of current, both rather loose terms designating a "happening now" thing.Well, it's not modern for one thing
I literally, factually, did not say what you seem to think i said.seems you might be trying to hide behind 'Well, I personally never literally said I thought the team was American', which is pretty disingenuous.
Forgot to respond to this bit.Out of interest, do people also take issue with Hermione campaigning for men's rights in game? If not, why is that fine, but one joke dunking on JKR not?
Considering what you say next, this is pretty fucking ironic. Again, it's not a political take, it's simply a joke, dunking on JKR.Modern is a synonym of current, both rather loose terms designating a "happening now" thing.
The political circus around these subjects is both happening right now and has for a while, don't deny reality.
You literally, factually, responded to me asking for examples of when the team came off as American. I asked a question, and you responded to it. If you didn't want to give an example of them coming off as American, then why would you respond to that? Why continue on with that premise instead of saying 'Oh btw, I don't agree with the original guy's point, and I'm not going to attempt to prove the team's American viewpoint'? I can accept that perhaps you didn't intend to continue with the argument of an American bias, but I feel like you probably would have/should have clarified that long before now.I literally, factually, did not say what you seem to think i said.
Don't bend words to try and defend yourself and don't put words in my mouth.
You both jumped at my throat for speaking my mind.
Ah so, modern, political hot takes are fine as long as they are in the original game. So the difference is just time. I mean, I think that's a stupid as fuck reason, and very slimey, but at least it's somewhat of a proper reason. Political hot takes are fine, as long as they are several years old, even if they were extremely current at the time of writing, and continue to be to this day. Kind of seems like there's some major doublethink going on but whatever floats your boat.Forgot to respond to this bit.
Simply, It kinda fits the character... right?
It was also originally in the game and not, what i suspect to be text added later by different people.
Wrong, here is what you quoted in the reply:I literally, factually, did not say what you seem to think i said.
Don't bend words to try and defend yourself and don't put words in my mouth.
You both jumped at my throat for speaking my mind.
This obviously makes your previous statement a flat out lie. You do want "modern politically dusted hot takes" as long as they conform to your political bent.Forgot to respond to this bit.

Notice this has no disclaimer about the original game which or that it fits the character. You like the original game just fine, modern politically dusted takes and all, they just conform to your worldview. What you don't like is anything political that doesn't because you are the saddest little snowflake that melts and cries about anything you don't 100% agree with.Yeah wasn't sure on it but some even early dialogue has been changed and not for the better.
Last thing i want to read is modern politically dusted hot takes of either leaning, joke or not.
I can accept that perhaps there was a genuine miscommunication, but I would think that if someone didn't want to address a point the other party has asked about, they'd very quickly say that they're not arguing that point, and then attempt to clarify the stance they are taking. If I were to say 'I don't think Snape has ever been mean to Tonks. I'd like examples of Snape being mean to Tonks', and you respond to that with an example of Genie making fun of Tonks, I would naturally think you're trying to give an example of the thing I specifically asked about. I think that's what anyone would do, but maybe I'm mistaken.We're not taking anything out of context, we're not misquoting or putting words in your mouth. A question was asked that you specifically and directly responded to. And you can't hide behind the bullshit that you don't understand how quoting works on f95 as you had no problem chopping up a response and lying about everything up above.
Notice this has no disclaimer about the original game
In what context can i not be referring to the original text here?early dialogue has been changed
Potentially, but the directed aggression from perniciousducks and the narrative applied by your posts muddied things quite heavily.I can accept that perhaps there was a genuine miscommunication
If I ask a question, and then you directly reply to that question, with no 'Btw, I'm not actually answering that question, but another one entirely', then yeah, you're the one in the wrong here. Quote replies do not 'just happen', nor is it automatic. You have to choose to quote the post in question yourself. You'll notice that I haven't quoted Loafy in this post, for instance. Hell, you didn't even quote the last person who posted while you were providing your example. By quoting me, you are seen to be continuing the conversation in the quoted post. That's just common sense.As i said:
A quote is a quote, not a biblical statement or textual agreement word for word of the quoted text.
What you say and what i say are different things, quoting you doesn't mean i agree with what you say.
I shouldn't have to clarify something I never said or something you introduced to my narrative yourself. You chose to see aggression in my posts when there was none.Potentially, but the directed aggression from perniciousducks and the narrative applied by your posts muddied things quite heavily.
