I expect you to stop attributing malice where none existed. To take back the words that expressed that idea the way I have.

An maybe admit that “not how that works” isn’t the tactful way to point out a problem.

How are you reading my mind, and still so wrong about what I “deliberately” meant to say?

I started off agreeing with you, and I still do. Rudely, but still.

I mentioned ace because there is experiential overlap. But obviously OP isn’t ace. They’re into women FFS.

You can assume whatever you like. I’ve clarified my meaning.

I tend to do that when someone goes for the worst possible interpretation so they can assume ignorance.

Frankly you walked in sounding like the kind of people who were mean to OP on discord.

Duh

Edit: I know I’m not being nice here, but “that’s not how thing works” is how you correct someone when the main goal is feel superior.

Even then I agree that the adverse interpretation was there, so I improved my wording.

I wouldn’t say it’s wrong… But it might be inaccurate to call yourself lesbian. In that you don’t fit what people expect that word to mean.

I can tell where the disconnect comes from: most non-bi people find the idea of sex with their non-preferred gender repulsive.

In that way your lived experience differs from that of most people. You have a clear preference, but it doesn’t come with the sexual aversion for the other sex that most people experience.

Your experience with men sounds closer to how some asexual people describe sex, than what bi people describe. So neither “bi” nor “lesbian” correctly describe you. If someone was rude in how they said that to you, that was uncool of them.

I wouldn’t worry too much. The important thing is that you understand yourself, which you seem to be well on your way on. If and when you need others to understand, you can add on some explanations.

It’s either “the antithesis” or "is antithetical’.

I think if we include niches with users that post daily, but not necessarily to communities big enough to be seen by most, we can up that to 6.

Maybe even 7.

Yea

This is nice

See, I don’t see a difference between what you are describing and most corporate leaders.

I didn’t say a good job.

Nah. It happens when you let an idiot run things.

Mobsters are still organized businessmen. Just criminal ones. They’d do a much better job.

Like I said, WipEout and Gravity Rush weren’t played by everyone. But almost every gamer I know, has a niche genre they’re into or nostalgic about. My WipEout fix now comes from BallisticNG.

Few individual indies are gonna hit it big, but as a group, their chunk of the industry is growing, and fast. Because together they cover all the types of games the giants won’t make anymore.

Even Requiem is technically niche. Horror is usually not for everyone, but RE since 7 has been doing actual innovation. Even with the remakes they’ve been developing their in-house engine and gameplay mechanics. Tweaking. Adjusting. Improving.

And players can tell. Add to that that while they did take a few shots at live-service partner titles, they didn’t ruin the main titles to do so. And once each game was done, they moved on to making the next one even better.

The RE franchise isn’t part of the problem. It’s one of the few AAA IPs still being developed the way single player titles should be developed: listen to player feedback, and just make a good game.

Battlefield 6 was so big because it pretended to be a return to form, before instantly going to shit post-launch. Customers are increasingly jaded. And the amount of customers buying indie, even if they don’t buy the same titles, is growing in lockstep with that.

I like Sonys current crop of IPs (GoW and Horizon) but I really hate how they’ve completely abandoned niches and innovation.

It’s like they don’t care about their first part titles having any variety anymore.

Studio Japan and Studio Liverpool hurt me personally. Neither made games played by everyone, but everyone who did play WipEout or Gravity Rush, loved them.

“You know that thing we sell? Buy a shitload of it.”

And I wasn’t replying to you.

Why you replying to the corrected comment to someone else, after I deleted the accidental one?

Did I say it did?
