Dudes just denying the existence of stereotypes now, gamers have truly ran out of options

I haven't played a video game in 30 years, so you aren't talking about me. Or are you saying Daleks were Jewish?

What video game did you play 30 years ago?

Daleks on a Mac Plus. There was a thing called Doom around the same time, I couldn't be bothered.

First ones I played were in 1974. I knew people who were developing the first text-based MRPGs on university weekend computer time and they had things like Asteroids consoles in their houses. I looked at that stuff, thought "I can see where this is going", and decided reading books, playing Go and playing the flute were more my thing.

And you haven’t played a video game since then? Impressive! I know it seems grim, that Hogwarts legacy is what gaming has become, but there are still decent games out there. An example is the hidden indie gem “Otoko Cross: Pretty Boys Mahjong Solitaire”

Your insinuation is that anything hooked-nose and money-grubbing is automatically targeted at Jews. That is Anti-Semitic as fuck. One second you’re complaining that people won’t “let stereotypes die” and in the next you’re complaining about people “denying the existence of stereotypes.” If anything, you are perpetuating them.

“By pointing out blatant racism, you are being racist!” Top tier gamer take

Goblins are obviously anti-semitic, in all instances. See, you said this, and you seem to think it's not funny.
