I think sometimes when it comes to critique in general, many people always assumes that it's an attack on the media in question. In my experiences working as a freelance artist, you learn to parse the criticism into useful information while tossing away the fluff. While critiques may have the power to influence future projects from a creator, it ultimately falls on said creator to understand the critique and utilize it in the future.
On all the Witcher stuff, I fall somewhere on the middle. For the Witcher the lack of diversity in race doesn't bother me, but for me (someone who is Hispanic): it makes me hope CDProjekt takes the critique to heart for Cyberpunk 2077. I mean, you're talking about a setting in future LA, whose creator is black. There has to be cultural diversity in that game from the outset. Time will tell.
My hometown, I was born and raised in South Bronx. Even though I didn't think it was as bad, statistically speaking it was (maybe still is) poorest district in the U.S.
Although the place that I'd personally consider as the worst, was Liberty City, FL. That place was a test of all the street knowledge I attained from the Bronx.
I think they're done well enough. You have strong women, smart women, and everything in between. On the other hand there are women who are victimized and downtrodden (anyone who's found a specific whoreson will know.) I think the grayness of the world is reflected in a decent somewhat realistic way.
At the end of the day though, everyone has a certain threshold for what they can handle. Some will find the Witcher 3 to be overly mysogynist and others will find that to not be the case. I personally think there's a good mix of meek, strong, and nefarious characters of all genders and types.
David Letterman, hey he doesn't have anything better to do. Naw, seriously though it'll be cool to have Tina Amini, Evan Narcisse, and some local game devs in NY would be cool.
GTA staple Lazlow would be my dream guest. Just think of the insanity of having Vinny and Lazlow in the same room.
Heard him on the Beastcast, was awesome on that. Then I had to look up the rest of his stuff, dude's prolific and that impresses. I feel GB has made a great choice in electing the next great vidcon analyzer.
Welcome Austin, prepare thyself to join cosmic horror duo known as, Vincent "VinBomb" Carravella and the "Wolf" Alex Navarro. The GBEast grows!!!
I would recommend any camera that has a good macro lens. Considering you mentioned jewelry and key chains, I would assume you want to to take clear close up shots. Any camera with ability to add a separate macro lens would be the ideal way to go.
