I still remember when I first saw this on Reddit the name of ruawri (including the trans flag) was cut off and people were insulting her in the comments how she was self-absorbed, "character looks nothing like her", "she wishes she looked like that", "women always make themselves in video games", etc.
When it turns out she is trans now suddenly it's sweet and wholesome and got featured at Respectful Memes. People are hypocrites.
Different people with different context and at different times behave differently?
I should use this as the basis for my thesis, thank you ParsnipWitch!
Holy fuck, but TomatoRogue is in another thread explaining to everyone how people all behave the exact same in all contexts and at all times! I don't know who to believe anymore.
Still a dick move to be mean about it if she wasn’t trans. Even with the “different context” it’s just people being rude to someone who really does look like their character, which isn’t exactly cool either.
I don't expect people who leave such comments would suddenly be supportive after finding out she's trans. For what it's worth, I missed the trans part at first and just thought it was neat.
Have you considered that Reddit is full of toxic incels propagandized to by GG?
Lemmy is the nerdiest part of Reddit, my guy.
They walk among us.

What is GG?
GamerGate
Tbf, there were actual incidents where game news journalists gave preferential treatment to indie game devs they knew personally/went out drinking with/had dated. There was confirmation of that from leaked game journo email groups/chains. There was also concerns about preferential reviews being given to games that were running ads on a site. There was a small kernel about actual journalistic integrity concerns and what responsible disclosure means for games journalism.
Unfortunately that got swallowed up by a lot of bullshit:
All blondes look the same?
OP in the tweet is trans.
… I wanna say duh? lol
I didn’t realize this
Nor did I. I was hella confused.
Nice to see all the huh durr comments in here, as if they know everything there is to know and could never not understand something.
Try and be less judgmental guys!!
Yeah I am old enough I just kind of scan past emojis so I had no clue.
OP also plays GW
Whoosh? Lol.
On the one hand, very sweet.
On the other, UGH NOW I FEEL OLD. I was already an adult working an office job when guild wars 2 came out :(
Someone I worked with was super into GW1 and was very excited about the sequel, excited enough that I tried it out at release. I liked it but didn't have a lot of time so lost interest.
I was quite surprised to see it pop up still being updated the other day!
It's a surprisingly good game for one that's been out so long! And they don't raise the level cap so taking a break doesn't mean you fall behind.
Highly recommend, even for short bursts of play.
Not raising the level cap is super refreshing to see, might check it out.
New gear isn't better than old gear either, no item levels that constantly get higher like in WoW and FFXIV. Basically a char with only items and skills from the first expansion can still be competitive today.
wait
I started playing guild wars when I was 14
the first one
what kind of bullshit is this
Unexpected age reminders are the worst part of the internet.
Still one of the best MMO games on the market. Can recommend everyone to check it out.
Plus no subscription and horizontal design so you can take breaks comfortably.
It's worth seeing in my opinion if someone enjoys the genre. The only oddity to me is that it doesn't offer controller support and hasn't found its way onto consoles. It isn't an old school MMO with too many buttons.
I bought it when it released. Does that mean that I can go back and play it again without paying more money? The subscription thing is what has stopped me from going back to Eve Online. I actually reinstalled it a month or so ago, logged in, saw that I couldn't even undock with the ship I was in, and uninstalled it. That was disappointing.
WHOLESOME 100
Man, I love guild wars 2. Too bad my characters can't be gender goals 'cause they're all charr, except for my meme-y salad man named "wyrd sahlud". I just wish their balance team wasn't so shit. I still haven't returned after they absolutely butchered my beloved Chronomancer.
I've been loving my power support Chrono lately for solo, story and open world play.
Good mix of melee and range plus good CC, a bit of active defense, and perma alacrity and near perma quickness to you and 5 friends.
It's not the be-all-end-all like it was in the HoT days, but it holds its own while being far less stressful to play.
If you’re refering to the time they removed quickness/alac combo, it was absolutely deserved. Back then, the only 2 supports were chrono druid, now you have much more variety. The nerf to distortion share was also deserved as it trivialized many raid mechanics. Besides these two things, chrono is still very viable, even in the hardest of content. PvP/WvW roaming burst is great, support in zerg is still very common. It can also be played as a decent power alacrity dps or pure dps in PvE.
It’s true however some patch notes are kinda bad, like a few months ago deadeye went from full dps 44k benchmark to quickness support 49k to all builds below 40k. This patch balance is really good however, and as someone who played since launch, I’d say it’s better than it’s ever been.
Met some of my closest irl friends in GW2, many of us don't even play anymore. It's a good one. :)
I can relate
Que up the Mulan sound track
I don't get how this is wholesome. Sorry
She's trans. So when she made the character she was still presenting male and therefore the character looked nothing like her. Now that she looks how she feels; it's a wholesome surprise that she looks just like the character she made potentially even before she knew she would transition.
