    Justin11 got a reaction from Heatman in Can you still remember the first console game you played?   
    The first video game console I played with was PS2 console, and I got to play it around 2011. It was an emotional one back then for me to get my hands playing console games.

    It's been a while I played the final fantasy the seventh edition, DMC, God of war 1 and 2, PES 2010 and winning eleven soccer 1999. I might have fun playing again this December.

    I know you've typed all this things because you're speaking with experience around RE series. Capcom should take notice of the game, and try to fix things that makes the game underwhelm, lacking the through vibe which gamers expected to see. I played resident evil games in the post often especially from 1-4, I recently got to the seventh version recently. I never played much of it, but the little I've played, its quite okay, but the gameplay still needs over haul to make look more realistic.

    Passion is a funny thing...
    I may not like what Capcom has done to the series, BUT it's that love for the classics that keeps you wanting more. However, I think they're just repeating too much for to gain sales, because they just don't know how to make changes that make sense. So in their eyes, they probably think it's safer to offer up familiarity.
    They even admitted that they get their ideas from Wikipedia. I'm not sure if anyone was aware of that, but somebody I know on Biohaze said that's what they do, business-wise. Because it's obvious that they likely hired a lot of new developers that had nothing to do with creating the older titles, so they go off of concepts they find on the Internet. You know? Written summaries from Wikipedia, which is a site that "anyone can edit" and no doubt, they also inspect art pieces. But you can tell they're failing. Not that new fans will notice. There's a lot of people who claim to be hardcore fans, yet they complain that they cannot comfortably play games like RE0 because of the camera angles and the outdated tank controls. Even though modern RE games are not that dissimilar to the style of the older games anyway, they'll act as if they are  fans, but that's the first thing they use as an excuse. Uh, okay. Maybe 'get good' or something. But hey, I don't know... 
    Speaking of which, Wesker's long term voice actor D.C. Douglas just got into hot water for leaking art of Wesker in the RE4 remake, and for fear of being sued by Capcom, he has since gone and closed his Twitter account. Maybe it will be resolved and he could open it back up before it gets outright erased. 
    Remakes are not new stories, though. What little new stories they do come up with, I feel they are usually quite silly and disappointing. Because everything about RE8 is just stupid, if you're someone who truly remembers completing games like the [first] remake, the original RE2, CVX, and even RE4, which RE8 basically tries to copy. But RE8 is a blemish on all of those games. 
    And to think that RE8 could actually win the 2021 'Game of the Year' award. It's an underwhelming game, to be honest. But I was curious about the DLC that Capcom said was coming for free. They brought it up briefly at E3, back in June. I've heard zip about it since. That could involve Rosemary Winters with super powers and government agents, or some nonsense revolving around the tall vampire lady, who was not really in much of the base game, despite the focus on her in their advertisements...

    Justin11 reacted to Reality vs Adventure in Ahmaud Arbery killers found guilty-and the victim was demonized as typical of black people in America   
    It has also come to light that Georgia District Attorney Jackie Johnson has been arrested and is charged with violation of oath of a public officer and hindering a law enforcement officer relating to this case that delayed justice of Arbery's murder and she is facing prison as well. These are all obstacles people of color have to face in a country that is in hard lined denial of systemic racism; citizen's arrest of a black man jogging in a white neighborhood; murdered if they didn't comply; District attorney trying to hinder justice; lawyers demonizing the victim to the jury; Kevin Gough defense attorney tried to get the judge to not allow any black pastors in the court room and complained that 'Bubba' and 'Joe Six Pack' are underrepresented in the pool of jurors, meaning there weren't enough of the southern white men type, or the red neck type to be the jury. These are the types of things that needs to be cleaned out of our justice systems. I say there needs to be mandatory diversity in all jury for all cases. When do you ever hear an all black jury and a white man as defendant? Umm never. This case would have set three killers free in a different court room in a different town. At least there is three less thugs off the street and possibly four if Johnson is found guilty.

    Racism have proven to be elusive, and it's becoming a burden in the current system of things. It was rarely seen publicly but this days  is becoming more and more popular, going from public to viral, killings coming from racism is becoming unbearable too. What caused it? Simply different 'races, that differs in skin colour, appearance scene and otherwise.

    That's life, at some point we wouldn't stay together all the time with our siblings even with our children especially when maturity comes in. Because they'll go seek for their own career, to earn money and start up their own family. Its tremendous that during early time, you enjoyed playing video games with your beloved siblings.

    Let's change the location. Let's change the judge and replace with Rittenhouse's judge. Would the outcome have been different? This verdict was only days after Rittenhouse was found not guilty of being a vigilante praying on protestors. But in this case, 3 white men tried to place a citizen's arrest on an unarmed black man while jogging, and ended up shooting him dead. 
    I want to point out a very disturbing thing an attorney said to jurors that is a sort of dog whistle of racist rhetoric that has similarities to runaway slaves. There was a photo of Arbery's autopsy that showed his feet and this was said of his toenails to the jury:
    "Turning Ahmaud Arbery into a victim after the choices that he made does not reflect the reality of what brought Ahmaud Arbery to Satilla Shores in his khaki shorts with no socks to cover his long, dirty toenails," attorney Laura Hogue told the jurors.
    'His long, dirty toenails?' That is a clear reference to a runaway slave, or portraying him as a beast, unkempt hygiene, less than human. That is just a really sick thing to say to the jury. But it is something that has been a common trend in how black people are treated differently as a victim. So we should familiarize ourselves with this kind of language and understand its intent. This was another high profile case that could have easily set those men free after their murder if they had a different judge or all white jury. And in this case all were white except for one black on the jury. So it was a very close call. 
    But this system of vigilantism and citizen's arrest tend to favor those with oppressive and racist intentions further leading to oppression and racism in a country that has an ugly history.
    Here is a good article about that case and more of what I'm talking about.

    Am I that transparent? your "god" is nothing more than a figment of your imagination. Your religion is nothing more than organized crime. I would never lower myself to that status. I would never worship your "god". I'm not gullible, delusional, or stupid. Also my imaginary friend state ended when I was 4. And any church that would excommunicate a 3 year old isn't worthy of the child.
    And again, when did I say I have siblings? Point me to that comment. If you can't then
