Well another 24 hours up. Let’s go.
This thread has devolved so far with so much crazy stuff being posted since it started.
I just want to add that if a game can have dead bodies hanging from nooses, along with many other gory and graphic things, a few lgbt+ NPCs isn’t going to be pushing any envelopes.
Unless we are talking countries that still outlaw being gay, but they can always get the China treatment if revenue is a concern.
why do characters need a spotlight on their sexuality to begin with, straight or gay? most pandering comes off as poorly written. arcade gannon, veronica from new vegas, trevor philips are examples of characters who are people first, and just happen to be gay, or bi.
tracer and the later change on soldier 76 to make them gay was shoved out there with little thought, and little real meaning to it outside of pandering. bliz likes to talk out of both sides of their mouth, its why tracer and soldier are not gay in the mainland, because bliz is fairly spineless and says what they think people want to hear, and wont “rock the boat”.
and you cant even claim you are being hated on, i lean extremely hard towards my own gender. i just would rather see it done right, or not at all.
I type most of my words except when I’m not sure how to spell it, and that’s why my sentences are full of spelling errors.
You seem to know what you’re talking about but imagine if there’s no “if… else” limitations and the AI went to some dark corner of the internet and learned something it wasn’t supposed to…? But if we tell it “if this is good, then learn this”, “else bad stuff don’t learn” then it’s learning process is still controlled by us human.
The command line for the very basic actions, we have to program it to identify if something is new, how to search it’s database, insert/update the data, isn’t that us controlling it as well?
Free will is an illusion.
This conversation will get very complex fast, but this might not always be the case.
In code we can designate primary and secondary objectives, or even way more. Even code itself is read as its written, first by top, then what is after it. It may just make a choice for this reason alone, if a situation was to rise that conflicted.
“do the most efficient thing to help earth” “dont kill humans” Could conflict if the ai decided that we are not helping the planet.
It will execute the “do the most efficient thing to help earth” command first, which is still what we want it to do, it didn’t decide to help earth, we told it to.
I have some issues with this conversation. WE do not fully understand AI programming, and the human-level consciousness and ability to think, and we do not understand humans, or animals. This is largely a hypothetical realm, and i don’t find it really worth debating (because its all really conjecture).
My scripture has a verse in it where we are told that “animals are conscious, but they are mainly concerned with what to eat, where to sleep, and who to mate with”.
OMG can you believe there are no Eskimos represented in game !!! Shame on you Blizzard Shame on you for no Eskimos
Yes one-thousand percent agree, Blizzard fails at diversity.
Are you saying that I’m an animal? Oh wait, yeah humans are animals too.
Oh this thread is back. Hello again.
All Blood elfs are LGBT!
The general thread of the general forum.
Well I do believe wow needs more diversity but that’s generalizing
I mean this thread has gone from a LGBTQ topic to chili fries, tv show, religion, AI etc etc.
I think it might be lame if they added certain roles just for diversity sake. If it was well handled or made sense in the story, fine.
if you want to be considered a good person, perhaps you could start by not spending your time thinking about what other people do in private.
…because quite honestly, that’s just creepy.
There are some people who feel that we’ve gone beyond encouraging simple acceptance of people who are different to outright indoctrination of kids in schools causing gender confusion and so on.
Daily reminder of Blizzards hateful crusade against Twinks that nobody from the LGBT community cared about.
Blizzards homophobia knows no bounds.
um what? I am confused. what’s that got to do with homophobia?
