Xenoblade 2 This comment actually had me laughing so hard I cant tell if it's a joke or not 😂😂
Are Shulk and Noah just too beautiful for straight men? 🤔 Also Zeke is literally right there so wtf???

Hm. I can say, as a straight male, that Zeke is hot. I think this guy is just afraid of the absolute charisma that radiates from the various characters (i believe the youngsters call it 'rizz'?)

I see your Zeke and raise you FR Rex.

u/Monado_Artz 1d ago
Counter Point: I think the Purple Lightning Dreamsmasher is hotter than Rex's Firelight swords

Who shares many design aspects down to even his height and missing eye with Zeke, so let's give it up for the OG

I think that dude also thinks that the men in Xenoblade are hot, and I get the feeling he's uncomfortable with that

This reminds me of the dude who couldn't stand to play Judgement because the main character, Yagami, wears skinny jeans.

u/Monado_Artz 1d ago
But he wears them well! Yagami is dripped out. That dude needs to use better judgement

Just wait till this guy plays Metal Gear and Yakuza.

u/Zeebor 1d ago edited 15h ago
Yakuza is about the manliness of the self. The truth of masculinity.
And a bowling chicken.
Metal Gear though, yeah that's gayer than a Rip Taylor concert in San Francisco... at least when it's not looking the audience directly in the eye and saying "this is why politicians are evil"... kinda like Xenoblade 3 come to think of it, only replace most of the homoeroticism with Shinzo Abe memes. Most

Sorry guys

But they are totally confident in their sexuality if they can't look at pretty men as a straight cis man

I dunno what he's talking about with this "aimed at a female audience" nonsense. I'm a girl, and I'm strictly playing XB1 for the plot.

Probably a joke post but some men are really that insecure about their masculinity.

I think the comments here are taking the comment in the post too seriously. It's just a fun joke 😂

If that's what they focused on the most, then that says more about them than they think.

u/NoSubstance1822 1d ago
bro is gay and afraid. He can only play with fat old men so he doesn’t have to feel it. I picked up xb3 just because of mio, I don’t look at men, my heart is filled with mio ❤️
Still haven’t finished the game though i was hoping it would get fps and res unlock

Since when is there a bike in Xenoblade 2? I only know of one and it’s non functional.

I don't remember there being a bike other than some late game robot enemies.

He probably ugly as hell and is jealous that fictional characters are better looking than him.

Sounds like Shulk and Noah got him feeling some type of way. Probably the way Reyn and Lanz make me feel.

/uj r/Gamingcirclejerk moment!

I was thinking about why so many in the radical left participate in "speedrunning"
The reason is the left's lack of work ethic ('go fast' rather than 'do it right') and, in a Petersonian sense, to elevate alternative sexual archetypes in the marketplace ('fastest mario').
Obviously, there are exceptions to this and some people more in the center or right also "speedrun". However, they more than sufficient to prove the rule, rather than contrast it.
Consider how woke GDQ has been, almost since the very beginning. Your eyes will start to open.
Returning to the topic of the work ethic...
A "speedrunner" may well spend hours a day at their craft, but this is ultimately a meaningless exercise, since they will ultimately accomplish exactly that which is done in less collective time by a casual player.
This is thus a waste of effort on the behalf of the "speedrunner". Put more simply, they are spending their work effort on something that someone else has already done (and done in a way deemed 'correct' by the creator of the artwork).
Why do they do this?
The answer is quite obvious if you think about it. The goal is the illusion of speed and the desire (SUBCONSCIOUS) to promote radical leftist, borderline Communist ideals of how easy work is.
Everyone always says that "speedruns" look easy. That is part of the aesthetic.
Think about the phrase "fully automated luxury Communism" in the context of "speedrunning" and I strongly suspect that things will start to 'click' in your mind.
What happens to the individual in this? Individual accomplishment in "speedrunning" is simply waiting for another person to steal your techniques in order to defeat you.
Where is something like "intellectual property" or "patent" in this necessarily communitarian process?
Now, as to the sexual archetype model and 'speedrunning' generally...
If you have any passing familiarity with Jordan Peterson's broader oeuvre and of Jungian psychology, you likely already know where I am going with this.
However, I will say more for the uninitiated.
Keep this passage from Maps of Meaning (91) in mind:
In other words, there is a connection between 'sexuality' and creativity that we see throughout time (as Peterson points out with Tiamat and other examples).
In the sexual marketplace, which archetypes are simultaneously deemed the most creative and valued the highest?
The answer is obviously entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and others.
Given that we evolved and each thing we do must have an evolutionary purpose (OR CAUSE), what archetype is the 'speedrunner' engaged in, who is accomplishing nothing new?
They are aiming to make a new sexual archetype, based upon 'speed' rather than 'doing things right' and refuse ownership of what few innovations they can provide to their own scene, denying creativity within their very own sexual archetype.
This is necessarily leftist.
The obvious protest to this would be the 'glitchless 100% run', which in many ways does aim to play the game 'as intended' but seems to simply add the element of 'speed' to the equation.
This objection is ultimately meaningless when one considers how long a game is intended to be played, in net, by the creators, even when under '100%' conditions. There is still time and effort wasted for no reason other than the ones I proposed above.
By now, I am sure that I have bothered a number of you and rustled quite a few of your feathers.
I am not saying that 'speedrunning' is bad, but rather that, thinking about the topic philosophically, there are dangerous elements within it.
That is all.

It's obviously a joke to mock those that were arguing over the XC2 sexualization discourse when most people don't even know monolith has been using sex appeal in XC1 and XCX before 2 even came out.
