I think we’re beginning to see Mexico flex it’s cultural muscles out of the latinesphere.
Not videogames, but latine culture inspired shows like Villainos, El Tigre, and my personal nostalgia bait MUCHA LUCHA!!!, definitely foretell Mexico entering the same space of cultural influence in the west as places like Japan with Anime and JRPGs
Is “latine” the new latinx after that got overwhelmingly rejected by actually latino people? If so that seems very presumptuous to try, again, to push something onto a foreign language the speakers do not want.
It also reads very unfortunate, I did a triple take because I kept processing it as latrine.
Its hilarious, if you called a Mexican a fucking “latine” they’d look at you like you were a pinche mamon lmao.
Both of them were created by the queer community in Latin America but sure “pushing something onto a foreign language the speakers don’t want”
Acting like queer recognition is just white people shit is about as racist as you’re trying to make using a different word sound so how about we settle the fuck down about presumptuousness.
I think Latin@ would be a better fit since it has both a and o in it. Who do a write to make this proposal official? Where is Latin@america central command?
Latino*
FTFY. Please don’t massacre our language.
Estas son las nuevas palabras incorporadas al diccionario por la RAE
If you think latine is an affront to Spanish check out these words accepted into the Spanish dictionary just this year.
You’re not fixing anything you’re just keeping things shitty.
It ain’t just your language, and if a single letter change is “massacring” your language, you’re part of the exact reason why queer latine folks innovated the e and also that x y’all had a supernova tier meltdown over.
Inclusivity ain’t just gringo shit Moghafil.
thats not how our language works
latino*
way to mark yourself as a conservative jackass. Do you like licking yankee boots?
You know uhh, no comment on the shit flinging in the comments, but I’ve always liked latine over latinx, feels more natural to use a vowel there than like, an x. Shout out to latiny as being the highly underrated evolution, which unifies both the use of a vowel and something adjacent to the x, while also sounding really dumb and funny.
I dunno. Seems similar to the outcries and moral panic that people used to have against neopronouns, or pronouns in bio, to me, without realizing that they use neopronouns all the time whenever they call someone dude or bro. I feel like I’ve left this comment here before, but I do wonder whether or not neopronouns like dude or bro are more acceptable because they’re kind of a more natural integration into language than most of the academic postulations on “oh, what if we made a gender-neutral singular pronoun”, or if they’re more acceptable precisely because they’re kind of gendered. We’re all dudes, hey, but at the same time, it would be kind of stupid to say that dude doesn’t refer to or see use by mostly men, and is kind of gendered. I dunno, I’m sure “dude” and “bro” were pretty heavily hated when they were used, so maybe it’s just that whenever anything novel with language is done, it’s doomed to be shat on relentlessly by prescriptivist nonces.
I dunno maybe we all just need to speak like, ithkuli or something, so nobody ever talks to each other.
Oh god imagine putting the world through learning to be fluent in ithkuil XD
Maximum expressiveness, maximum migraines
I’d be thankful just to get a spelling reform but English has somehow descriptivized its way into having worse spelling than prescribed written languages.
squad?
i think they are talking about that realistic tactical shooter game.
its pretty good actually.
squad’s the devs that name ksp lol
arent they busy with cartels?
GTAIRL
The cartels should start making games. They already deal in addictive products.
Juarez is probably safer than the bad part of Chicago. The cartels are unlikely to fuck with you if you mind your business.
Bro, the government in Mexico was and probably still is a cartel.
9 years of shadows was developed by a Mexican studio. Kind of a shit game with charming visuals and repetitive gameplay. I 100% completed it and hated most of my time with it. 2/5 would not recommend.
If you make a game in Mexico you should show the US through a brown filter.
Wouldn’t it be blue?
It’s OK, Tom Clancy made games.
A big problem will be that it’d be super easy for an aspiring and talented Mexican dev to just get scooped up by a US company. Brain drain at work.

I unironically played nothing besides that game for a majority of high school and had no idea Squad was a Mexican company. Shame ksp2 apparently was not great
neidu2@feddit.nl 7 months ago
Ksp2 has come a long way since the initial release and the frustrations associated with it. It’s not quite there yet, but it’s still very much early access, and the progress thus far looks promising
Carvex@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Steam still has it in Early Access still but is charging $50, full price for something they can’t call complete. Gamebreaking bugs and FPS drops to 10 sometimes, it needs work but it seems like Squad is letting the community do the work for them like KSP1.
captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
I mean, first Squad isn’t developing KSP2, are they? Second, “developing” is present tense, it’s still in early access, isn’t it?
