it’s so cool that american politics are just gamergate now
Ah gamergate, the day that the gaming community has officially been gentrified by the normies who smugly wrote off actual gamers as nerdy losers for decades before.
Please gatekeep your hobbies before steals it from you, then kicks you out of your own hobby after claiming himself to be the standing authority on it.
The Lotus Eaters
THE LOTUS EATERS ARE A NONE TOO SUBTLE METAPHOR ON THE PERILS OF ESCAPISM
HOW DO YOU MISS THAT SO FUCKING BADLY?
What, the peril of giving up early on a bunch of dangerous adventures fighting monsters and pissing off powerful beings to go do opiates and/or eat pussy?
I mean, if i found out I was being fucked with by a bunch of suitors while my husband was fucking around on an island getting high…

ESCAPISM IS DEAD WHEN THE WAIFU DOESNT NYAAAAH FOR SENPAI EXACTLY LIKE THE LAST 8435 TIMES

I gotta say, comparing their desire to mindlessly consume without ever having to see anything that doesn’t cater to them to the situation of the lotus eaters is pretty funny. What happened to being free-thinking intellectuals who aren’t afraid of hurt feelings?
I was just glancing at some anime pfp dweebs channel and was trying to figure out whether the creator or the people who watch their slop are more depressing.
Why would anyone give a shit about a FNAF movie? Like I’m faintly aware the dev is some form of christian-chud dipshit but aside from “rich chud gets richer” what am I supposed to be mad about?
Nostalgia baited newly adults and teenagers are upset because they’re unable to enjoy a dumb movie they like without validation from people they hate. Every single kids movie, especially the video game adaptations, will have angry people who think the critics don’t understand the modern Scorsese
The creators can at least generate profit from said slop, the audience is just wasting their time and poisoning their brains
Yeah I get that there’s financial incentive for the slop generator but I can’t imagine that they aren’t buying into their own rage bait.
Five Nights at Freddy’s movie has woke Hollywood critics FREAKING out!
It’s getting bad reviews because it’s a shit video game adaptation movie?
Rachel Zegler hates me!?
Lmao okay who cares?
SHE’S WOKE AND SHE HATES YOU.
THE FNAF VIDEO LMAO
These people have deluded themselves, or simply pandering to the fans, that every dog ass video game movie is actually good now. So good that the Elders of Rotten Tomatoes are conspiring to ruin its reputation even though the website and movie are owned by the same company.

Every piece of media has characters in it. Those characters are going to have traits like race and sexuality and physical characteristics that you may or may not find attractive. The only way this could possibly be considered propaganda is if you thought there was some kind of default human and portrayals of literally anyone else was…
Oh. Nevermind. I guess I answered my own question
Imagine thinking mindless media consumption is a serious hobby lmao
Unlimited Genocide on G*merkind
I don’t understand. She looks really pretty. What do these guys want exactly?
For every female character to be a big tiddy anime sex toy.
implying I’m not one already smdhmdh
Escapism is dead because the commodities are providing escapism to other people. It’s all supposed to be for me!
Can’t wait to see what he has to say about the MIC involvement in military shooters
Alan Wake 2 came out recently and all the Gamers are shitting themselves to death about one of the protagonists being a black woman and the game being exclusive to the Epic store (because Epic paid for the game’s production).
Your hobbies are for propaganda
I wish normies a very go back to watching sportsball. Sorry a story made you think, I know that was a tough experience for you.
Assfucker

That’s funny because you have the choice to not play this or any other game. You also have the choice to go make your own game if you don’t like how someone else has made theirs. You have a lot of choices. You can choose if you want to look at this picture of a pig shitting on it’s balls or not. I bet you’ll look
I agree with everything except the ad hominem.
There isn’t even a personal insult in there. You logic nerds just love using debate pervert language
I agree with everything except the ad hominem.
ad hominem on my nuts, idiot
Say the line bart
I personally think games should be open and give the player the ability to choose their own alignments.
You want a button to say the n word? I literally don’t know what the fuck you’re saying here, what the fuck is an “alignment”
The game is undeniably fun to play, but many games tend to have agendas behind them, even if these aren’t necessarily negative ones. In terms of Sony, the company isn’t particularly known for its moral stance, and they choose to include content based on what is popular or mainstream at any given time. If the N-word were mainstream, it’d probably be included in the game.
but many games tend to have agendas behind them, even if these aren’t necessarily negative ones.
Even whining about “agendas” is an agenda. Your agenda. Demanding that things somehow not have an “agenda” as you see it is just whining for a status quo that is so numbingly comfortable that you don’t notice it in your bubble world.

Whiny “nonpolitical no agenda just give me choice” nerds like you trying very hard not to think of something racist for more than 5 minutes:
Wow. You just discovered what capitalism is. Congratulations. I know you people always recommend “basic economics” to leftists but I’m glad you finally had the time to read about it.
I think it has an agenda, even if it isn’t a terrible agenda, it is still an agenda. I won’t tell anyone how to write their own novels, but I personally think novels should be open and give the reader the ability to choose their own alignments. We have that capability and I think it would make novels better, but writers don’t wanna do that. That’s why novels are better than other types of media: choice.
GIve Yourself Goosebumps was ahead of its time
i read the shit out of choose-your-own-adventure books as a kid, no shade
This doesn’t make sense and it dishonestly misrepresents my assertions.
you clearly have the media literacy of a brick wall, and i don’t plan to educate you on the thought-terminating disinterest of reducing video games to narrative choice. like are you fucking daft, or are you too much of STEMlord to actually understand how narrative works? in short, i don’t care about your nonsense assertions, you are like this pig shitting on its testicles
You don’t care, yet, you read it, and passionately replied. Mission failed, successfully. Good job.
crawl back to reddit you sniveling dork, holy fuck
As usual the “nonpolitical” whiner’s own politics are unspoken but obvious status quo assertions and anything that makes them feel vaguely uncomfortable is an unfair tyrannical woke narrative.
i want to inject your noggin with the knowledge and work required to make even a shitty jam game and watch it pop like an egg in a microwave
I’m a CS student. No need.
Your head has already exploded
So you’re already a fucking moron who needs his little computerized bubble to actually have an even mildly useful thought that wasn’t already 90% pre-coded for you. Got it.
What the fuck are you talking about you fucking dork
Are you mad that there’s a rainbow flag in the game or some shit

your preference is for what, exactly, you stupid fuck? what exactly do you think you’re educating us on here? that media implicitly represents some set of social norms or that a giant corporation makes a game that is calculated to the be the most profitable for the intended demographic? do you think that people are making fun of you because we don’t understand that? we’re bullying the shit out of you because all the art has an agenda, it’s called all the content ever made, dumbass

I think you should see someone.
Smug and dense “nonpolitical” liberals try to respond to hostility without implying their opponents are mentally ill challenge. Difficulty level: IMPOSSIBLE
Got rid of 'em for now.

I know where this goes. Your type tend to want to do some grimdark murderfucking in, say, a Spider-Man game and want that to be recognized and rewarded because you’re the most special Main Character.
No. Fuck you. Just write some one-handed edgy prompts in AI Dungeon. I hear premium’s pretty cheap these days.
People used to pay me for grimdark murderfucking spiderman short stories. Im very glad these people exist, paying me 300 dollars for a 1000 word short story.
Shit how do i get into that? I have writing samples
Go to reddit.com/r/guroerotica and post said samples while advertising yourself as doing commissions. Pretend to be a woman from Venezuela or Ukraine or some other country the reddit hivemind knows exists and is going through stuff.
Lol
It’s Spiderman…he has an established alignment. I don’t know what you are on about.
Why does ever game need to be some open world RPG bullshit? Why can’t you have a fixed story and a character with a fixed set of choices and beliefs? And even then, game devs will cater to you nerds with MUH CHOICES!!! You people are just upset that they nudge to you to a certain direction and that’s there’s obviously a “correct choice.” Just fucking go against it if you care so much holy shit. If you end up a shitty villain, you probably deserve it, but so what?
If you want unlimited choices go play a TTRPG
“If you want unlimited choices go play a TTRPG”
That might require friends and the ability to be tolerable for a few hours
We really need more games where you can choose the nazi alignment, it would make games better but the studios don’t wanna do that
