[c-no]

I never understood why he refused to do the mural aside from "WAAAAAH PAINTING"

I swear it's like Dobson purposely makes it a game to see how he can get a rise out of people more than caring about his growth as a person. It's pathetic.

Probably because he'll think people will criticize it or someone from the internet will say the mural was made by an inflation artist.

 

[wheat pasta]

I dunno, on the whole 'mural' thing I've been asked to do a couple before, and I was kind of just able to recognize that I lacked the necessary skill to make it worth the person's time and money. Not that this guy has that kind of introspective capability, but still

I know I'm late but I love his "feminism" picture. Nothing says feminism like a big buff guy protecting two very sexualized girls at his feet.

Oh that? That's not Dobson's work - that's done by CurtSibling, so it's just a parody.
It doesn't mean that Dobson doesn't do retarded social justice warrior sexism comics though.

Oh god, I feel retarded now.

Yeah, his feminism stuff is pretty cringeworthy as it is.

I wouldn't feel too bad, it's a pretty good representation of his actual comics, so the mistake is understandable.

Sorry to necro this thread but I found this to be kind of ironic. He picked the Stormcloak faction in Skyrim because he sees himself as a "religiously tolerant guy". This ignores the fact that the Stormcloaks are racial supremacists and nationalists.

If you're going to play a game and pick sides, do it for fun. Social justice reasons are such a waste of time.

It's my turn to necro because I saw this: http://tompreston.deviantart.com/art/Skyrim-The-Warmth-of-Mara-416070920

As many of you know, I am an atheist. And yet somehow I found myself becoming quite devote to Mara in Riften and in trying to bring the faith back to the troubled city. One of the most notable quests in this little side story was called "The Warmth of Mara" in which you have to go out into the city and hand out pamphlets. Truly something I never expected to see myself participating in. I started imagining my "character" going out and becoming REALLY emotional and into her work as she handed out the flyers.

Congratulations, you discovered immersion! Now just play the fucking game. I wonder if he would make a huge deal about "fighting in the name of God" in a Castlevania or killing God in SMT. Rather surprised that he's played a non-Nintendo game for once.

He thought the Batman game sucked. He does not have a good taste in ga-- anything.

Kinda weird he'd enjoy that part of the quest so much. Like everyone in the town except for two people pretty much act like assholes when you hand them the pamphlets, and I'm pretty sure one of them even says they're going to wipe their ass with it. Also Dobson plays as a femal bc feminist.

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Boring. Yes let’s spend the first 20 minutes walking SLOWLY down a hallway with the Joker making vaguely homophobic conversation with Batman. I mean, OK, I get the idea that The Joker is suppose to be kinda gay for Batman all thanks to Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight comic... but has it ALWAYS been this overt? Playing the intro to the game actually kinda felt uncomfortable because of how homophobic the writing seemed to be. It just reminded me of how Hollywood likes to portray feminine traits as being kinda “evil.”

Skipped the cut scene cuz I was so desperate to have something actually happen and finally got to begin the game. Left click, right click, click click click click click YAWN click click click click click click, gee for how rough I’m hitting these guys they sure take a LONG time to go down click click click click. DONE! What next? Oh... more bad guys... click click click click click click click click click click

Batman: Arkham City
Hello, what’s this? Playing as Catwoman? Oh this might be interest- Left click, right click, click click click click click ... DONE! Oh hey that wasn’t so bad. Now I can play more of... NOPE! HAHA CATWOMAN OUT BRUCE WAYNE IN.

Fuck you game.

Again with the long slow boring opening. Let me get into the god-damn game please! I don’t like wasting 20 minutes walking through corridors. Also, why is no one surprised or shocked that Bruce Wayne can fight everyone while still handcuffed and beat the snot out of The Penguin?

Honestly, once the tutorial junk was done, actually PLAYING as Batman is pretty damn cool. I love being able to swing around the city, stalking villains, conversing with pedestrians who help you, etc. It’s very fluid and much more intuitive than the first game....

Then the story comes back and ugh... I don’t care about Harvey Dent. I don’t care about “investigating the path of the bullet.” Let me just roam around kicking ass.

SMACKS HARLEY QUINN

Game... that is not what I meant. Lost interest the moment the game tried to get me to “plan” out my attack against the thugs. Are these people so stupid they can’t look UP and see me just sitting up in the edge ready to pounce? Wish I could go back to roaming the city... or as playing as Catwoman. Blah.

This is just like his GTA V 'review'. Only longer than 140 characters and over 9000 times more pathetic and ignorant. "DUR HURR. What do you mean that I have to play as Batman in a game clearly named 'Batman Arkham City'".

In all honesty, I think he just watched an LP of both games on YouTube, because anybody that's play any of the Arkham games can tell you that the combat is nothing like how our balding feminist cartoonist described it.

 

[EzioCanLeapofFaith]

He's such a tryhard.
Ok, you want more female representation in the entertainment industry, that's ok.
But god, is it so bad that a Batman video game focuses on playing as Batman?

Knowing him, he probably only wants to play as Catwoman or Poison Ivy, and only them. He is a feminist, after all! A game that focuses on Batman is fueling the patriarchy!

I vaguely remember he talked about Mirror's Edge, which we all know has a female lead, but said he had no intentions of playing it.

Disclaimer: I didn't go back and check so I could be wrong.

Yeah, its funny how he complains so much about games not having female characters, yet he never seems to play the games that do. I have never seen him talk about Assassin's creed Liberation , a game with a female lead, nor about other games like Child of Light.

He just loves to complain.

Perhaps it's that with the exception of Child of Light (and a few others that I can't remember), many of those said games aren't on Nintendo systems, only on those evil 'hardcore' consoles.

I'm kind of curious on what are the roots of his fanboyism. I used to be a console warrior because I could have only one console a generation, in this case N64. It wasn't about how I couldn't afford the competition but I felt the need to defend the games I liked (the people who mocked them were "edgy" realism elitists but I'm digressing) and to spite the naysayers. I realized console wars were retarded once I was able to get all three last gen systems.

tl;dr - brand loyalty is stupid.

Yeah, I never got the idea about the "Console Wars" either. To me, it's just one huge band of idiocy and autism (as well as bias) rolled into one.

 

[KendriaP]

I always thought his brand loyalty to Nintendo was hilarious, seeing as they're not at all a flawless company...

Speaking of brand loyalty, what is it with autistic people and single-focus brand/franchise/company obsession? Obviously, Dobson isn't autistic, but many people that surround him/are "related" to him are. His Nintendo hard-on borders Chis-chan's love for Sonic.

Y'know, that question has been covered many times and the answers are mixed up. I know a kid in high school with autism that is batshit obsessed with Sonic just like Chris, so much so that he wasn't even remotely BOTHERED by the character design changes in Sonic Boom and not realizing in blind fanboyism that Sonic is degrading in quality time after time..and the most funniest being that he wanted Amy Rose to be removed from the games, lol. I haven't seen anyone obsessed with Nintendo outside the internet TBH.

You do have a point on Nintendo not being the perfect specimen of the game industry. Too bad Dobson doesn't realize Nintendo isn't secret gold under the mountain, but who cares?
