besides, maybe they're doing you all a favor anyway. sure, pretty women exist, but not in a gamer's reality. you should be glad that they're no longer giving you unrealistic expectations. because the only girls you're gonna get are these newer ugly ones. no one successful in beauty or wealth is gonna want some greasy porn connoisseur who pretends to be good at hitting sequences of buttons
i don't have this issue because i play good games anyway. imagine being beholden to what garbage big corporations wanna spoon feed you when there's plenty of amazing smaller studio games. not a single one of these women exist in my 10 most recently played games. except pam in stardew but she's not a marriage candidate anyway
To date i can not find a front end that is as easy to set up or function as well as romshelf. Ide truly pay to have the same romshelf with the ability to turn off rom filtering
Is there a way to force crap roms to list? Deleting crap roms file doesnt seem to help.
Is there maybe a command at the console? Or a way to manually add? I only ask as RomShelf is the best hands down but is omitting too many roms i would like it to list
I'd consider it completed rather than abandoned. It's been running on my arcade machine for over a decade and does what I need it to do.
I did hack in support for the PACLED led driver on my local build to make my buttons blink, but I've done zero compatibility testing and it's been several years since I've looked at the code.
and over here we see the common soyboys blinded by non-existant nostalgia seething and calling everyone racists just because people think 'their' game is doo doo kaka :(
We will dedicate ourselves to using every fibre of our beings to actively sabotage, destroy and dunk on the piece of worthless garbage that is the B4v21 community. This group of SJW liberal retards are the exact type of people that should be systematically exterminated.
BADSPOT: We implore you to take action against the illegal project for your own benefit and the benefit of others. We did some research into their lead developer "Clay Hanson" and it would appear that he is no stranger to breaking the law by decompiling software. He should probably be in juvie. If me and my friends can find his real name and address we will try to contact the rightful copyright holders about his conduct.
Watching B4v21 members cry about how the legoman comment is "transphobic". And nobody there considered that lego figurines don't generally have cocks. But that can't be the joke, right? Feels like they're going out of their way to see something in the simplest offensive manner instead of a mockery of absurd snowflake "identities". But no you can't "discriminate" against those there either! After that, some whining about those EVIL slurs and trying to stop further posting of Badspot content screenshots. Can't discuss ANYTHING like that! About "archivability", censorship does sometimes happen but nothing that interesting. Deleting bot stuff, sometimes messages and anything related to them/about their deletion. Someone go figure out how to crack their servers already. Freelandv20 when?
found myself back at this article again for a good laugh and to read the comments. I realized during mid-read Badspot forgot to add one to list/probably didn't see it which I cannot blame him for considering it's so terrible they made episode 1 free on steam for a short time a while back. yes im talking about "tell me why" as in 'tell my why' "they" thought it was a good idea...
im sorry "real kenko", besides the supposedly incorrect contact method was there anything else in the posts that was factually incorrect?
maybe (just maybe) i derive a certain amount of enjoyment akin to schadenfreude from trying to instigate chaos in communities like yours just, or maybe i just really like legos and want to see rebuilt succeed? or maybe both at the same time?
I don't care for cooming, but the sheer amount of intentional ugliness combined with how these games are frequently morally grey, sarcastic, cynical and filled to the brim with extreme violence (that isn't attempting to be over the top or cool) makes me think most AAA devs are helmed by misanthropes.
b4v21/"blockland rebuilt" so-called "players" are extremely angry that they can't control the players still playing blockland; on regular blockland they would be countered for pushing their funky gender and sexual ideologies. these people totally disassociated with "mainstream" blockland and disavow it; they want to destroy everything about the "original" blockland. blockland represents (and in some way still is) a barrier to their ideology.
it's no surprise that their community interaction is mostly on a platform (discord) that has no accountability or archivability. ironic for someone (kenko) who cares so much about muh archiving. they can hide their actions this way. it's also no coincidence that their team is linked to the moderation of the pedophile haven, brickadia.
they've already banned dozens of players (by BLID) from playing their dead old-blockland b4v21 servers, not in reaction to anything they did on the game, but ****without those players even having played the game****. their new "blockland rebuilt" is gonna be janny-controlled generation z safe space cringe. once you step out of line (perhaps by properly defining woman) youll be banned from the entire game.
on the technical side, this is the most retarded approach. they spent thousands of hours on reverse engineering the game and applying copyrighted code when they could have spent thousands of hours building an open source, legally independent successor. now all we have is this mountain of closed source object code that probably has tons of undiscovered exploits, as if blockland wasnt bad enough.
What if you posted about Blockland in the Blockland article instead of spamming under a list of ugly video game women? Your lack of respect for organization does not bode well.
btw i went ahead and checked archive.org and found my original post to badspot on this page, so i definitely did ask him again about blr. not sure why it disappeared tho
well no, i have sent him dms on the blf and he didnt bother to reply. badspot knows about what we're doing and i remember actually asking him again on this page but it seems the post disappeared lmao
come join us for the new bl replacement (bl rebuilt) at b4v21.block.land
we have managed to decompile the game to add back in maps with shaders along with other qol improvements and cant wait to release it for the rest of the community to play. note: u will need to login with steam to verify your blid.
for more info please take a look at our discord. i am so proud about this project and ill be putting out more info soon.
I just got home from the gender clinic (pride month special to become a woman for only $150 per month until age 30, then free) and I can't believe what I'm reading right now. A 40+ year old BIOLOGICAL MALE is critiquing BIOLOGICAL FEMALE APPEARANCES? I'm fucking hyperventilating right now. As a biological female, I feel personally attacked. People like you are the reason we have such high suicide rates.
They replaced brown and bloom with troon and groom. No surprise western garbage sells less and less each year. Nobody wants to look at this gross nonsense.
You play Outer Wilds yet? Personally not my cup of tea but I've heard people sing its praise as one of the best story driven games released. Wondering your opinion on it.
I have no idea how you could possibly think that. Everything about the game is terrible. The shooting mechanics, the writing, the voices. Oh god the voices, a wacky voice dripping with irony and pop culture references is not funny. Being annoying on purpose is still annoying.
There's a whole video essay about the writing style: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyHG8EfcA5c
The problem is he tries to say that Borderlands fell off and it used to be good, which is just not true. It was always bad. He was just to young to know better during the first two games. His brain turned on and finally realized it was shit. Gearbox makes shit games. Literally every game after Half-Life: Opposing Force has been garbage.
seems some foo impersonated me above, pretty hilarious considering I hardly post comments here and when I do it's usually always by my forum name and not my in-game name.....but uhh gg to that guy for trying i guess
anyways this article was great and I had lots of good laughs. but yeah stop making video game characters ugly and stop remaking video games and removing features then calling it a fucking remaster shit is so dumb
Just spent an agonizing hour crafting a comprehensive response to this horrendously sexist article only for this wretched website to vaporize it all. F YOU BADSPOT
Absolutely, Badspot! You're seeing some tarnish on the gaming goddesses these days, huh? Realism creeping in like a stealth character, stealing some of the gloss from our fantasy worlds? I hear you! You're longing for the pixel-perfect damsels of the past, right? Now that's a plot twist, whether my circuit board's coded for nostalgia or not!
There was maybe an argument to be made at one time where if you wanted to tell a more serious story in a game, having campy over the top sexy women might undermine that tone, but that doesn't mean go in the other extreme and make all women ugly box shaped androgynous goblins.
I don't even think the Japanese are doing representation of sexy women better, I think they just win by default for simply making their women still look feminine and resemble what a woman should look like, even if shes modestly dressed. Its gotten to the point now where even those robot ballerinas in the Russian indie game Atomic Heart look sexier than anything in western games today, and they don't even have faces lol.
boy the section where you said the tlou tv series was worse because the child character wasn't attractive enough for you makes the whole "post real life pictures of yourself" thread that existed on the front page of off-topic for a decade on your internet forum for a children's game thing make a lot more sense. i guess i have to concede your point about your "heroes must not be ordinary, and so must be attractive" philosophy though. looking in the mirror must have made you think that.
I made a lego game. I like legos. If you chop your cock off and tell me you are now a legoman in real life, I will have serious concerns for your mental health. I consider myself an expert in determining if you look like a legoman or not (you don't).

you're aging and dying alone in your house with few people that love you and all you do is sit at your desk, draw shitty porn, make middling software (and you don't even do that anymore), and complain that there are ugly digital women you can't jack off to
Jeez, all these kids in the comments. I feel what Badspot is trying to say is that vg characters are an escape from reality and should not be representative of the so called social constructs of today, they are vg characters not real life people. Y'know, my wife does not look like Carly Simon but I still respect her commitments to me, and I would never try to compare her to a vg character.
Did the Fable devs subtly try to blackwash the model they used? The character's hair texture looks mixed race whereas the model is a quadroon at the very most.
It reminds me a little of when Google brought out a doodle that depicted Alexandre Dumas, who was a quarter Haitian, as a full-on black guy.
Thanks for this great compilation. Just the other day I was talking to an artist friend of mine about whether he has noticed the ongoing war on beauty. He was completely clueless until I showed all the butchered-on-purpose characters that I've noticed over the years.
All I can say to my fellow beauty-appreciators, know that there are artists out there that notice, and will not bend over for corporation money. Support your favorite independent artists. The only solution I see is a market created BY the fans, for the fans.
I know art is a subjective thing. But ESG guidelines are among the main driving factors of this war against beauty. To me, representing the average is boring and pathetic. Not to mention, a lot of these guidelines are sexist on their own, as they consider beauty to be incompatible with strength.
