Its disgusting how devs are so tyranical..

You cant say any word when pm between whatever friends.

Whats worse is nobody cares, i think nobody really talks ingame, thats why nobody makes a fuss about it. Dead game.

"This Game may contain content not appropriate for all ages, or may not be appropriate for viewing at work: Frequent Violence or Gore, General Mature Content."

Its not about ONLINE. Its pm between friends. PERSONAL MESSAGING. You dont have anyone to talk to ingame, so you dont understand how lame it is to retype messages.

[Mumyo]

Pretending it wasn't an online joke is even dumber as hell imo. It's these kind of people that fall prey to the online trolls and start branding "pepe memes" as nazi imagery, then they use the same idiotic rhetoric of "Pretending it was nothing more than an online joke minimizes the real-world harm being done daily, which shows just how little attention you're paying to actual issues".
Ppl can put ALM tags for many different reasons, not just "All Lives Matter", but they're so focused on their own grandstanding that they cannot even consider any other viewpoints other than their own.

The moderation on this forum is nonsensical.

This is what happens when a cry baby generation get old enough to be online. They want the internet to cater to their sheltered lives. I would love to see these kids in a 2009 COD lobby.

I once typed: This game is bad for my Alt-Itis. Message got blocked. The filter is a weeeeee bit over done.

Wrong you are. You are exactly what causes further polarization. Congrats, you've taken a meme, unilaterally decided from on high it's one dimensional non-variable meaning, and decided it's okay for others not to see it.

It was a reaction to a slogan that was explicitly intended to stop, as I put it,

Escrito originalmente por Dosbilliam, Boring but Practical:

"black people being extrajudicially murdered by police"

and a bunch of butthurt white people couldn't stand not being the center of the entire system's attention for a nanosecond while something actually meaningful was addressed. Pretending it was nothing more than an online joke minimizes the real-world harm being done daily, which shows just how little attention you're paying to actual issues.

The point is that the view which says blacks are systemically oppressed, by police or otherwise, is factually wrong and is functionally propaganda. Example study:

How many unarmed Black men were killed by police in 2019?

1) About 10
2) About 100
3) About 1000
4) About 10000
5) About 100000

Left leaning people skew towards answering higher, which is factually false. This is one dimension of the myth, but something tells me you don't care for the facts. You've moved on to activism.

So point being: censorship is stupid, you shouldn't assume to have the truth to the degree to which you don't entertain the idea that you might be wrong.

Anything that can be found on these forums on in any other games not being censored is censored in last epoch. Its quite discouraging, no smack talk can be done. I think it doesnt concern others because others never use chat.

I hate Puritans and their stifling effect on public discourse, there is nothing wrong with swear words other than that it pisses off trimmed beard hypocrites who long for the good old times of authoritarianism and who doesn't want to piss off those ♥♥♥♥♥?

how is it having a "stifling effect on public discourse" in last epoch exactly? or do u just wanna go wah wah wah like a whiny little ♥♥♥♥♥? Genuinely curious.

ppl whining about censorship in an online video game chat has got to be the most soyboy ♥♥♥♥ ive seen in a long while.

So let's compare:

Camp 1 goes through HR, corporate, marketing, and a bunch of other stages to remove "ok" signs and "FJB" clan tags from a game like COD.

Camp 2 says: "doing this is stupid"

And your reaction is: "Wow camp 2 is oversensitive"

[War Penguin]

yeah. get over it.

I can give examples of ideologically-loaded censors. "BLM" used to be an allowed clan tag in COD, but "ALM" wasn't. Just curious what it's like in this game.

Considering that the functional meaning of "all lives matter" ended up being "I'm ok with black people being extrajudicially murdered by police" regardless of any actual intent behind the person saying it, yeah, not something I'd wanna see in my game series about committing war crimes and suggesting torture is actually useful IRL; if anything the people using "BLM" confuse me, since apparently that means that domestic murder of non-white people is a problem but it happening in other countries via US-made arms is ok, I guess?

Damn how did you figure that one out?

Complete ignorance on the history of one of the most-known racial slurs in current memory and minimizing the motives behind using it in any context does suggest a certain skin color, tbh.

Nah ALM means all lives matter. People didn't like the idea that BLM only cared about black lives. So they made one that included everyone. As people of all races are brutalized by police.

Really all it takes sometimes is to just hold up a mirror to racists like yourself and you suddenly don't like what you see. Not a single person ever suggested ALM meant police brutality was ok.

Also systemic racism doesn't exist. So BLM was just a big grift anyway. Didn't the people running it steal the donations to buy expensive mansions and trips overseas?

Maybe you should pick your virtue signals better?

Oh, it exist in dota2 even today. But yes, the life meta is about how much anyone feels offended. And if you say no curse words its still not enough because people CHOOSE to interpret as insults, meanwhile they themselves use passive aggresiveness.

Most direct people just cuss and move on, modern snowflakes use indirect combat like marking for moderators, doing at at hominem or other strawman arguments.

@blindmodz i sunk in this over 200hours. Are you unable to read reviews? Alright then.

[CyberDown]

this place still getting hammered by lv0 private profile troll burner accounts?

[Albinosaurus]

I use chat all the time and there's usually lots of others doing the same. I agree that the censorship is annoying, but that doesn't mean "dead game" or "nobody talks." Maybe you just got banned from chat itself or something. If you really want to be a toxic troll in chat, you'd have better luck in WoW, PoE, or any moba--where the others are.
