"What if we took this person...and gave them Man-Jaw Syndrome?"

These people need to be sat down in front of like...the Resident Evil 2/3 Remakes, Death Stranding, and told to study, study, STUDY.

It's like...you CAN do Real-world facial modeling and have it look not shit if you aren't afraid of keeping an attractive female ATTRACTIVE.

Pic on the left? Just fine.

Pic on the right? "Oh my god what's wrong with your faaaace?!"

Don't forget, if you want everything that was supposed to be in the game you gotta pay $200, and put up with this.

Now we have to deal with ten paragraph essays on the evils of facism in a fucking fictional roleplaying setting from professional TTRPG manuals.

Stay indie, folks.

I'm tempted to make a Land, Sea, and Air, but I'm leery of the Filet o' Fish's patty.

Have you ever had a McGangbang?

That's the breakfast switchover thing right?

If so I've done it with the sausage and McChicken I'm not a fan of McBeef their burger just doesn't do it for me, chicken is good tho.

There was one that was a McDouble and a McChicken too, can't remember what that was called, might be the one you're talking about too.

Have not had one of those

The only way this works on the inverse is a matter of timing.

Case in point - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night was a commercial disaster when it was first released, quickly dumped into the discount bins at many stores.

Many years later, however, it would find appreciation from the broader public, and be set shoulder-to-shoulder with Super Metroid.

So many problems with modern fandom could be summed up with this:

Performative moral outrage

Can we all just admit that Capcom really broke the mold when they managed to squeeze two discs worth of content - cutscenes and all - on a single N64 cart?

Like. Bruh.

Time to live up to my username.

Here's an Unpopular Modern Gaming Opinion:

Bridget shouldn't have been made Trans for Strive.

Let's get one thing clear - I have no issues with the idea of creating new characters with a trans identity, what I take issue with is when you take characters with longstanding, pre-established lore, and hamfist things into their lore, like trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole.

Throughout Bridget's history in the Guilty Gear storyline, Bridget's whole story circled around a superstitious village belief surrounding identical twins. Bridget was raised to dress like, behave like, and speak like a girl in order to avoid being banished/killed.

Once he was of age to journey on his own, Bridget opted to become a Bounty Hunter in order to bring great wealth back to his village, hoping that, by doing so, it would help prove the village's superstitions wrong.

His ORIGINAL storyline would end with him returning to the village, fortune in tow, disproving the village's beliefs...only to discover that, in his absence, his twin brother had been absconded with, leading him to strike out in search of his whereabouts.

The constant gag running throughout Bridget's storyline in games where he was present, were people mistaking him for a girl - something which he would constantly, adamantly refute (much to the trauma of one particular pirate leader).

So, it makes no sense to many longterm GG fans (y'know, the people who actually PLAY the games and learn the convoluted lore) why, seemingly out of nowhere, Bridget suddenly decides "Actually, maybe they were right, maybe I was wrong, and maybe I AM a girl".

Bridget was a trailblazer when they were first created, giving us a GNC character who wasn't played off as a joke (See: Dan Hibiki), and was balanced as being just as strong as 90% of the other fighters (Fuck you, Potemkin).

Daisuke wanted to create an unconventional male character, and that's what Bridget gave us (also, Venom, who was revealed as gay through official audio dramas).

If they had taken the slow, long-term approach of having Bridget go through some sort of trans awakening (even if it was just in the backstory of games they weren't involved with as playable fighters), it would've made the whole reveal in Strive a lot less of a confusing shock to the longtime fanbase who'd been waiting for this character to return after 9 years of absence.

Like, at the end of the day, most of the fanbase just decided to drop it, accept it as Daisuke saying "This is how it is now", and moved on.

Like, at day's end, I'm just glad that Bridget was brought back to the fore, I just wish they weren't handled so sloppily. Like, if they confirmed that Xrd, Revelator, and Strive were all an alternate timeline from the Original games, that probably wouldn't have resulted in such a backlash, but we can't change what's been set in stone. Word of God and all that.
