That's just a game theory, right? The VA is a woman.

That's just a game theory, right? The VA is a woman.
Anavar chicks are still chicks. But yeah she definitely had reduced fertility, even before getting the shit kicked out of her multiple times and half starved to death.
Why do you think do many fricking bots and shills are working 24/7 to keep people divided? Ganker as a whole used to actually do shit but now it’s just morons arguing about meaningless fabricated nonsense daily. And whenever something real does come up it’s quickly suppressed.
Maybe it’s not schizophrenic and just what is actually happening? I mean you think it’s absurd but fricking bot farms and gophers in the third world do this shit for things like reviews and like on social media so why wouldn’t the same be applied here? It’s not hard to bait and they would probably be given a script similar to what a telemarketer has and have points to stick to and argue. And if shit goes south just call in the mods/jannies to ban people/delete the thread. You even wonder why blatant shill threads can be spammed hundreds of times with no backlash or anything? Do you ever wonder why someone can get the hammer for just telling someone to frick off but the blatant flame war bait never gets touched? You even wonder why the mere mention of shit like Sweet Baby causes a horde of people to just jump out of the woodworks and feverishly say how it’s either nothing/doesn’t exist and how everyone that talks about it is schizophrenic? This shit isn’t normal and it’s beyond even the average obsessed schizo or autist because even they need to sleep and this shit can go on for hours and even days nonstop far beyond any discord raid.
How much does it cost to shill on Ganker and who offers such services?
I work in marketing and I've never seen Ganker marketing offers. The most common are review bots on sites like amazon. Twitter and social media shilling is already extremely obscure since their bot protection is good enough that it's not lucrative to offer services there.
If I were to shill a game, the last place would be a relatively obscure imageboard where people hate games, love pirating and are extremely critical of shill campaigns already.
You only have a limited budget so why not spend it on sites where customers are way more likely to be?
I just don't buy it. It's too convenient.

there used to be actual shill marketing on this place, but like you said, people have gotten too wary of it. im sure marketers still try it here once in a while but not often i would know because i shill my indie games here sometimes

For indie devs it makes sense to post here since it would be a good and easy way to get exposure but indie devs don't have the budget to pay people to post here and if they did they'd pay them to post literally anywhere else or just buy actual ad space instead.
But lets take something big like Elden Ring. Who genuinely believes some kind of marketing contractor gets paid to post here? And all of this would need to happen in secret too.

Are you familiar with outrage marketing? Where someone will buy a game because they see a person they dislike hates it so make a purchase based off of spite? It’s like that only Ganker is just one step in it. The slimy homosexuals make bait threads to get as many screencap of people insulting the game and being angry as possible with a few people larping as anons to stoke the fires and make up more extreme posts. Then they’ll take them and post them on twatter or have some journo write an article and use them as an example. This works in two ways
1. The aforementioned spite buying
2. It creates the narrative that anyone who is critical of the game is some kind of “racist misogynistic incel” so criticism from outside is at most tame. >relatively obscure imageboard

You see this is the tactic, they won’t say it’s dumb or makes no sense because that would require them to say how. So instead they have to say it’s mentally ill in an attempt to discredit without actually arguing against it.

sadly Ganker got sabotaged by troony furgays ever since the mods were revealed to be trannies themselves and which isnwhy /qa/ was purged. there's no fun anymore just gay prison homies wanting to suck whatever wiener is presented to them
>neil: we don’t use the term fun for our games >neil’s idea of not having fun: thinks a sex scene is mature enough, thinks lesbians smoking weed is mature enough, thinks pregnant women are mature enough, thinks lesbian parents are a mature subject matter, thinks brutality is mature enough

There is nothing Neil Druckmann can do with his gamed power as head of ND after producing this shit, and being unable to command loyalty from gamers or his own employees
The only reason 2 didn’t crash and burn immediately was the good will from the first game and the rabid fanbase pulling damage control even to this day.
I haven't played TLOU or watched this scene because I have no interest in movie games, but from personal experience, my wife can get plenty wet enough for sex just by kissing in bed for a few minutes. Do these characters not even bother to do that?
>my wife can get plenty wet enough for sex just by kissing in bed for a few minutes
Which is basically foreplay when it's your long-term SO
And in the game nah it's strip and slam
This is irrefutable proof that all their b***hing about fanservice is pure hypocrisy and bullshit. Any homosexual online who complains about the latest Japanese waifu game where a woman moans while wearing a maid outfit but defended the only explicit sex scene I think has ever been shown in a AAA video game is just mad the anime girl is more fappable.
Now I'm wondering if there's EVER been ANYTHING in a non-porn game more explicit than this. Even Saint's Row faded to black.
They're not exactly sex-negative, but they are anti-natalist and don't want anyone thinking about pair bonding or making a family. So if the sexuality is someone over 30 having ugly sex with some guy no player identifies with, it's okay because it won't appeal to any kind of purity fantasy or get in the way of demoralization.
Anyone who says censorship of anime games is about fighting pedos is actually part of the side I just described. Family bad, romance bad, NTR good. In the end, we're meant to think Balders Gate 3 "romances" are the best outcome, where they're all infertile and constantly talking about their time on the wiener carousel but we get to see them naked.
He’s not a good writer the only reason the first game made it is because he had the entire studio and Bruce acting as tard wrangler. The first season of the show only had the hood will it did is because normies have no taste, but they also like wholesome hugbox shit and considering the sequel is the exact opposite of that they’re going to most likely have a far stronger reaction to season 2.
yeah it's intentionally awkward and weird and is representative of years of built up tension and unresolved emotions between the two
gamers are just manchildren who can't emotionally navigate anything more complex than anime games and they are personally offended by the idea of people they're not attracted to having sex (which means everyone who isn't an anime doll)
All the more reason for it not to be fricking anal.
And be honest, nobody wants to see people who they aren't attracted to having sex.
This goes for coomers, normalgays, and prudes.
It's funny, for the big list of things I loathed about this game, the awkward sex scene barely registers. The only thing that makes it stupidly gratuitous imo is that it was a follow-up to a conversation where you think they're finally finally going to show an iota of self-awareness with Owen calling out Abby on the stupidity of the murder-suicide mission that had them torture an old man to death and then act surprised when his pissed off daughter and brother shows up.
But then the fighting abruptly stops cause I guess recalling that horrible memory got them both really horny.
It's funny how this scene is explicit but there's no Ellie/Dina scene earlier in the game. US lefties make no fricken sense. You either go romantic or go full blown like the French Titane FFS.
The had anal, right? Why on the spot surprise anal? You can’t do that, especially in a filthy apocalypse. Makes no sense why they did anal instead of normal wet c**t sex.
most normal adults don't have a problem with some fairly explicit sex scenes in their media.
americans are brain damaged by their protestant roots into being prudes, and Gankerners are likely to be virgins who will never even get a chance at a woman as attractive as abby.

What a fricking gross scene all around.

You need lube or foreplay. Without either you're dryjamming into a bodypart that doesn't know what's up.

Americans usually need lube either way because their israeli genital mutilation causes their dickhead to be so rough and dry it tears veganas.
you do if you ram it right into her puss like what happened in this cutscene. thats not how sex works
>>no lube
There's sweaty crust right inside of their buttholes. The Crust of Us

it literally isn't anal, there is nothing there to suggest that it is other than shitposters who claim abby is trans
The face she makes looks like a rough anal insert face. That and the fart she lets out after its over.
well we would assume it's veganal but that would be literally impossible. are you stupid?
the best part about this meme is that it's working
I've seen impressionable morons irl, lefties at that, who thought abby was mtf
