BY GAMERS, FOR GAMERS

It’s like if someone distilled the entire reactionary anti-woke gamer mindset into one picture, it’s amazing

The developers are all “cool” white guys with shades while the only women in the picture are anonymous blonde bikini babes only there for eye candy

    Maybe I’m thinking about this too hard, but is this actually a bit self-deprecating? Like, the gamers and the women both have their backs to each other. The women seem to be completely oblivious to the presence of the men, and vice versa.

      With the caption “SHOT ON LOCATION AT INTERPLAY WORLDWIDE HEADQUARTERS” the implication is that Interplay HQ is such a wild place and the guys working for them so cool that there are just bikini babes spontaneously congregating at the company pool

      They’re as much a part of the furniture as the pool itself
