No. But that's not quite the objection I have. In fact it's crazy to compare unjust civil right laws and drug use law in Japan. Unjust civil right laws are waaaaaay worse.Currently there aren't any laws that would, let's say, impede people for being anti-LGBT or anti-transpeople. However, it's a moral stance to treat everyone the same regardless of their sexuality. Would you say it's more important that the law is followed and people are allowed their LGBT-phobia or transphobia?
Reuben is probably done for. Dante as a character will be fine.
You'd also have to boycott Smash Ultimate (Reuben is Ken) & Spider-Man PS4 (Reuben did mo-cap work for the game).Is anyone doing a thread with all Capcom games to boycott? And also add a tag whenever there is a Capcom game on sale?
Or was that just a one time thing?
Seems like everyone associated with the game turns out to be trash
He's a conspiracy nut, but from a different angle. More like a...traditionalist...He's actually pretty liberal guys, he posts anti-Trump stuff all the time when he isn't promoting hate speech
Well too bad. Hapilly we can still enjoy someone work and not agree with his opinion, right?
Maybe? Depends on the drugs. Depends on how it was sold. People would probably disagree with each other. That's not the situation though.So where's the line then? If he sold drugs, would that equate to bad morals?
The most likely outcome following that response (which was pretty much everything I was hoping he wouldn't say).Reuben is probably done for. Dante as a character will be fine.
I agree that from a pure acting perspective, Reuben is the best Dante. However, this shit cannot stand and I'm glad that Capcom's looking into it (& will hopefully boot his ass going forward).Well too bad. Hapilly we can still enjoy someone work and not agree with his opinion, right?
Nobody is saying Sega doesn't have the right to fire someone. They are just saying it's stupid.Once again. Nothing I'm disagreeing with. But if Capcom gets to fire someone because they have shitty opinions, shouldn't Sega have a right to fire someone for breaking the law?
Plenty of people with great voices to take on the mantle of DanteReuben is probably done for. Dante as a character will be fine.
The constant refrain of comments similar to this is really quite startling. Take your defeatist bullshit and go somewhere else. I'm sick of reading fallacious nonsense like "if you can't do everything you can't do anything." Kindly piss off with this logic. It's harmful, cynical and frankly just plain shit. People can choose for themselves what they want to do and how they want to support or pull support from various titles. They don't need to adhere to your particular stringent requirements in order to be recognized as being woke or something. Goddamn this shit is fucking infuriating.
whenever I read comments like this, I kind of assume that the person saying them is a sociopath that thinks people only do good things performatively instead of because they think it's the right thing to do.
Last of Us and RE5 came out long before these revelations. Didn't pay for RE2, dont play Street Fighter or Smash. Try again. Making decisions after stuff like this comes to light is pretty common. I was psyched for Kingdom Come when it was first announced years ago, then I saw that Vavras was spouting all kinds of alt-right, white natty bullshit. SPOILER ALERT: Didn't buy it and never will.
The only reason you would come in here playing that 'HAHA BUT YOU STILL TAKE PART IN SOCIETY' defense force nonsense is if you yourself are trying to defend the argument to begin with. And QANON, anti-blm and anti-metoo are odd ODD things to come and make your piece concerning.
You don't usually look at a voice artist's social media stuff or personal opinions when you book them - and even if you do, they don't usually pipe this stuff out in blatant ways.Jesus shitpiping Christ, where the fuck do they find these utter arseholes!?
Lmaoooo. When asked to clarify his statements he's like "nah, i'm too ignorant". Also, this statement is quite telling "Then making up a narrative to serve your clear bias about the #qanon 8chan discussions. "
In order to truly achieve change, you need to scold people on social media that they're wasting their time by trying to do the right thing.Uh, thanks for your dumb opinions. I'm actually saying that we need to go farther than not just buying Devil May Cry V if you want things to change
Oh no, not muh vidya games!If people want to boycott, the list is long, Reuben worked on a lot of games, not only Capcom stuff.
Effing LOL at the "arrrghhhh it's out of context!!" boneheads. No, his victim-blaming tirade was pretty fucking clear to anyone with eyes and ears.
(I also like the narrative we apparently "destroy the lives of people we don't agree with." That they find a liberal-minded forum more troubling than 8chan is telling.)
In order to truly achieve change, you need to scold people on social media that they're wasting their time by trying to do the right thing.
And no one has said that just boycotting the game is any sort of ultimate long term solution. You are the 'only one making the conclusion that those posters' activism simply stops at their boycotting when that isn't necessarily true. People do the big things and the small things because it all adds up in the progress toward change. If you want to consider boycotting useless that's your own prerogative.I can do whatever I want. Being realistic isn't being defeatist. It's not like I said to do nothing.
But deciding to not buy the game isn't enough. The alt-right does the same stuff with things they don't like and it never works out in their favor.
Uh, thanks for your dumb opinions. I'm actually saying that we need to go farther than not just buying Devil May Cry V if you want things to change.
On his Facebook or 8chan :/
It is. Everyone but you can see that.

Legality is meaningless in a debate of right and wrong.That's what we agreed on as a society. If not people would go to prison for their morals (or rehabilitation center, or whatever).
I suppose they are allowed but, the other guy said/did very offensive shit, and it doesn't reflect good on the company's values to hire a racist white man to voice a black character, Reuben is just another on the pile of DMC 5 controversies after the lead singer and the trophy, if fans express loud enough this isn't acceptable then Capcom would be forced to respond and make changes for the betterOK. This is going to sound like whataboutism. And I swear it's not intentional. I've just been trying to understand what the goal here. Specifically regarding Reuben's shitty opinions. Are people who have shitty opinions not allowed to have jobs? I mean we literally have a thread on the same page where an actor committed a crime and the comments are exact opposite. People are mad at Sega for dropping an actor...

EDIT: As a disclaimer because I know I will be accused of something. I don't like DMC, I didin't know who this guy was until yesterday, I strongly disagree with pretty much every opinion he has.
I'm not gonna buy this game because it has loot boxes in it and the PC version has a locked framerate
LOL! YOU'RE NOT GONNA BUY A GAME BECAUSE AN ACTOR IS DOWNPLAYING RACISM!? GUESS YOU BETTER NOT BUY ALL GAMES THEN! DON'T YOU KNOW YOU'RE ONLY HURTING THE DEVELOPERS!? IF YOU DON'T NOT BUY ALL THESE GAMES THEN YOU'RE A HYPOCRITE
I know nothing of their views, but Bosch (Nero) and Southworth (Vergil) and keeping their heads fucking down for this lol
Smash?that's what I'd expect too. it's probably too late to change things for Smash as well
He needs a fucking reality check. To stop living in alien VR simulatorsI'm still sitting here in disbelief that he name dropped 8chan...
I'm not.I'm still sitting here in disbelief that he name dropped 8chan...
