Season of Discovery Hotfixes - April 23
What would you expect the AVERAGE wow player clear in a raid for a season?
MMO-Champion
This title is very misleading. I came to this thread for some good old fashion racism and instead I read a semi-informational piece from Polygon about the usage of the phrase "deus vult."
Clickbait fucking posters.

What would happen if they added a bunch of Saracens to the game with scimitars yelling Allah Akbar!

On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

I've already been meaning to pick the game up, but playing like a fantasy equivalent of Saladin's army sounds pretty cool and very underdone. Originally Posted by Hubcap

When you play this card in Hearthstone she yells "for the Crusade!" ergo she and by default Blizzard is racist and literally Hitler
.
Are some people using slogans like deus vult as a form of shit-posting or racism? Probably. Are some people using pepe the frog as a form of racist circle-jerking over how clever they are? Possibly. But this doesn't mean that there is an epidemic of racism in all forms of media.
I mean there comes a point where you start seeing racism in every aspect of life even where there is none or you start misconstruing innocent intentions as racist as well. People don't realize that it's actually a small sub-sect of the population who are that deranged and it's origins usually start from an internet culture. Both sides of the political spectrum are guilty of this and to me this is just hogwash on the same level as conspiracy theories.
The game itself is actually quite fun and I'd love for them to add more ancient armies in it.Last edited by Dr Assbandit; 2017-03-02 at 12:11 AM.

Yet in the sentence after it they contradict themselves and say that they are related anyway. What part about that do people not get? Originally Posted by Dhrizzle

Why do you think the alt right isn't misogynistic again?

Been playing the game for 2 weeks, have an R1 Crusader... never heard of this...

It's very good... the only drawback is the always online stuff, but that's kind of the point if the game. The combat is very, very good... Originally Posted by The Casualty

Yea, that's polygon being polygon.
But I like how you drew the line at misogynistic.

No they don't, at no point does the author say that the players of For Honour are racist just because they say "Deus Vult!" Originally Posted by Mister Cheese

Fact: For Honor is a racist game.
Think about it: the only factions you can play as are the Vikings (Germans/Aryans - e.g. SS Panzer Division "Wiking"), Crusaders (Italians / Catholics) and Japanese.
They might as well call this For The Axis Powers!: The Game
Oh, and DEUS VULT!

Probably nothing, like nothing is happening to for honor right now? Also, thats why you gotta play age of empire 2 back in the days, those saracens on camels back throwing daggers > horse riders and elephants. Originally Posted by Hubcap

So, now I am an Alt-Righter because I love Crusader Kings 2 and force my anti-Pope to declare "Deus Vult"?
