That is a pretty epic bug!

Orchard1388d ago

I'm going to hell for that dad joke :P

masterfox1388d ago

Dont see any wrong with it. :)

Inverno1388d ago

Compared to giving virtual blowjobs to avis sitting at the bowling alley on HOME this is pretty harmless

It's a hug, it's a game, get over it you shit bags, don't like it look away or don't play. 🤣🤣The world is fucked up as it is and this a big concern? LOL If I developed a game and it was a hit I would let anything go except one thing which would be a permaban, that is cheating. Anything else go ahead, curse, yell, etc etc. Rememer the Quake 3 and Unreal days, there were no bans suspensions nothing (just cheating would get you banned/suspended), curse, do what you wanted, and guess what those games just went on, still have a huge player base. Now all these devs nowadays are pussies 🤣no backbone, nothing...

mixelon1388d ago

Huh? You saw the bug? That’s not how most bugs work.

i didn’t see anyone get offended, but Epic tried to preemptively remove it before the tabloids noticed and made a big deal out of a nothing burger, like they always do. Won’t someone think of the children, etc.

ElvisHuxley1387d ago (Edited 1387d ago )

Basically, getting offended draws attention, for better or worse, and anything that draws attention can be monetized. The internet and the culture around it has created a lot of perverse incentives for people to make money, which is unfortunate. If I were an alien coming to earth and experienced the internet without interacting with the real lives of the people, I would think I'd arrived at a planet full of lunatics.

Its probably closer to a kiss(with tongues)

NeoGamer2321387d ago

Unlike your post, developers pay attention to potentially offensive things now.

There are a lot of people out there that were forced by a prominent figure in their lives to do sex acts. When they see that stuff they get a unwanted chance to relive those memories. You may have been brought up in a safe environment but many people haven't been.

While you probably think this is being overly sensitive the reality is that offensive content is offensive content. It gave me a chuckle watching the video in the story, but I can also understand why there are people that wouldn't get a chuckle from it, and therefore deserves to be changed or removed forever.

InUrFoxHole1387d ago

Lol you're mad at the devs for wanting to fix this in a child's game? Search this man's hard drive! Lol

It's just a complaint, not a lawsuit, and it's completely unwarranted.

Garethvk5d ago

I said filed which they did. Filed a complaint.

VersusDMC5d ago

James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it.

So i don't know why SAG is getting involved as it makes it seem like they are going against james earl jones wishes or just wanted a cut...

Garethvk5d ago

They are concerned about A.I. replacing live talent. It's an unusual stance as you are correct; he left his voice and his family approved. The union is saying doing this versus using a live actor sets a bad precedent going forward. The use of A.I. has been a huge issue in the recent labor deals.

VersusDMC5d ago

Well this is also an interactive AI Darth Vader that would have made live talent impossible unless they think a actor being in Fortnight 24/7 is an acceptable solution.

They should concentrate on cases that are possible to be done with live talent and that haven't been given blessing or sold by the original actor(for which they should have the right to sell)

Eonjay5d ago

"James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it."

I have to say if James approved this after his death... that would be... um...

Do you mean he approved it while he was alive for when he passed?

VersusDMC5d ago

It's reported that he gave permission before his death and his estate(which i asume is his family) says so as well.

spoonard5d ago

Because SAG-AFTRA are trade unions. They are the Hollywood mafia protecting their profits from anything they feel could undermine them. It's all about the almighty dollar, not artists.

Christopher4d ago

James Earl Jones doesn't own the character, though. He essentially said the owners of the IP can use his voice however they wish, not everyone.
