I finally got to play this game. It was kind of fun except for having to repeat the boat minigame three times. Even the game recognizes that was a lame move.

Obviously it's fucking satire you dense cunts.
God this fucking website is a shithole. That dumb current year meme was never funny.

Just shut the fuck up. You killed this thread with your shithead excuse for "satire" and now that's the third post people will see. As if we're supposed to automatically know a random person on the internet is being sarcastic, what sort of retard are you.

This shit thread deserved to die with its racist content.

Yeah for about a decade and a half I only remembered the disfigured hand and not the actual game it was advertising.

Seriously? What exactly is racist? Describe to me what's racist about the OP.
>>
>>3044324
You know damn well why it's racist and should fuck off to any of these boards where your intolerance is not only accepted but encouraged.

>>>/v/

>>>/pol/
>>>/b/

Pick one and stay there.

uh... no man, I wouldn't fit in there. I'm a serious adult 30 years old. I hate /b/ and /v/, I find a lot of the content disgusting, offensive, unfunny and a waste of time.

Now explain to me even in a really basic way, why the OP is racist.

So was the game. The rosters they went with were extremely questionable. Even Dynasty Warriors Gundam series games were better, and that's not saying much.

>I don't know if it's racist because I don't give a shit

That's what you said though, noone cares if you think something isn't funny or "presents a distorted view", you could just not take part in a thread if you don't like it.

>An equivalent joke about Americans would be like "Mr. Smith is our Community Moderator for this Internet forum. If you have any questions about forum moderation, please post the name and address of your local school, and Mr. Smith will ride in on horseback and shoot everybody in it with his Colt Army Model 1860 revolver."

The Asian guy who was a part of this was fine with the ad, I'm sure he found it funny. I don't get that it's like what you're suggesting (from a european who hates American gun culture).

I think it's more just the fact that he's asian and it's a joke about Asian stereotypes automatically "triggered" your sjw, and how you would have to "educate" people on Japanese culture and tell them how it really is because you know all about it. The thing being poked fun at is the robotic-like Asian work culture and that's why I found it funny. If it was all an Asian company that made it would you call it "racist"? No, it wouldn't trigger you then, it wouldn't cause you to tell everyone how ignorant people are about Japan and how it "really" is.

There comes a point where SJWism is censoring and denying people the ability to make funny or interesting things, and that's really damaging. Even the fear of being called racist is enough that ads like this won't exist in future.
>>
>>3044467
Two diff anons, bro. The first one said "That's wacist!". I said "I don't give a shit."

I just don't think OP is funny, and tried to explain why. I worked at a big Japanese corporation in Tokyo for years. The Japanese NEED to be mocked for their insane culture of overwork. But that "bring honor to the family" shit is just so fucking tired and lame.

Only racist here is you, anon. You are speaking for a race you are not part of, denying them their voice.

Also, every civilized country on the planet makes fun of its culture. Which of course means any that isn't China or full of muzzies
