I’m happy that June is on my birthday I’m turning 17 years old I could careless about pride month besides none of it has nothing to do with me especially since I line in Louisiana but people these days are getting soft and anti sjws are racist snowflakes besides as a black man I would never want to associate with negative people like those it’s so glad to see you grow even though I don’t personally enjoy your content I see your point but it’s unfortunate how you turned into those “anti sjw” creators like yellow flash RK outpost and geeks & gamers Please do not have drama or whatever with me I want people to be loved and in harmony as a Christian I’m also a liberal but I’m not those liberals you see in like TikTok and other apps
you can't appease these people because this isn't about diversity, its power brokers with gov, money, media, the whole apparatus. Its a military tactic has nothing to do with gender/race it has everything to do with sparking division leading to wars/or draconian laws to deprive rights.
This isn't about divisity its about power and control and it doesn't favor any gender/race it favors its agenda its a war tactic and in this case it has huge amounts of money and power players in govs world wide and complete media dominance not to mention AI blocking this comment likly from making you aware. It there to force laws restricting everyones rights and possibly wars.
Using their own logic against them, it is pure insanity to pander to people that do not represent the majority of their audience. It spells financial doom to pander to 2 % of your audience. And that is exact what is happening now in AAA games.
They’re like a cult, pushing the message means more than destroying their company. Also, none of these people created the companies or characters so they don’t truly care when they destroy it to serve the “greater good”
@@Catherine.Dorian. Like one? They are absolutely one. It is basically feminism 4.0, but now the morally corrupted are coming after your kids genitals, literally. If you aren't homeschooling your kids, you are abusing them at this point. Public schools are a system of brainwashing abusive white guilt and genital mutilation. Schools rapidly on decline despite more Fed funding than any schools in human history have ever been funded. And it is because it all goes to woke, dogmatic, cultish brainwashing of your children.
As a Filipino man, I would be the most miserable person on the planet if I expected or demanded a Filipino character in every single movie, show, or video game I consumed. I have not once wanted a Filipino character in anything I watch or play. Because I can relate to a character without that character needing to be Filipino like me. He or she just needs to be written well. What next, every song from the Western world needs to have the word "diversity" thrown into the lyrics at least once somewhere?
This. This right here. You absolutely get it. The vast majority of people have no issue with their race being represented or not as long as the characters are well written and likable.
I'm trans and honestly I don't want any of this stuff.. the "rep" they use is insulting, they have no clue what dysphoria is, they just shove words around and gives "identity" and say that's it... like that hogwarts character. You know what actual T people want? To be what they are moving to, so just make a fem character and have an offshoot line or... in a world of magic or technology you know.. make it possible they can turn into a bio one.. but nope, they don't and won't.
I also remember when they tried to do new and amazing things with games like with Kingdom under fire for the original Xbox how they mixed real-time strategy with fast-paced sword combat nowadays all they do is copy and paste fortnite in a different skin and call it a new game none of the games now are original or add anything new they just say it's three frames per second faster and cost $90
Recently completed my English test to graduate and even though I live in Germany all the freaking woke topics got their spot in the spotlight in it. The fact that this test to graduate spoke about Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ is insane to me.
IKR? I learned chinese and passed HSK 4 and HSK 5 which is like test for chinese, and there were NO politics in those tests whatsoever. No questions or topics about socialism, communism or any policies... Now one of my chinese friends getting ready to pass TOEFL exam or something, and she said that part of oral test would be answering question like: man likes to wear a colorful outfits, what do you think about that. And you HAVE to answer in politically corrert manner. I was like what is this?
@@simpleserpent1337 My oral exam hasn’t happened yet but at least in the writing part I did already complete it was only multiple choice. So I at least didn’t need to write the “correct” answer in my own words, felt less brainwashy even though I still consider it as such. Let’s see what happens during the oral exam, if I have to talk about blm and lgbtq sheit I’ll be mad.
Finally, my man :) like maybe 3% at best.... but gaslight from media goes so hard. i mean if we include "P"&"F" then maybe 30%, so not until they adding P&F into LGBT, without them they have no big numbers
It'd be not that bad, because in reality they want to be "seen" in every piece of media ever created. Just like it was said in the other video they don't even play those games or watch movies they demand to be represented in
Tell Christians who need everyone to see their crosses, churches, words of prayer. Tell MAGAts who have to have their branding on every shirt, hat, flag, etc. Tell White Nationalists, who simp so hard for racism they would call out a person for kneeling during the Plege of Allegiance, yet want to portray January 6 as if it were simply free speech executed peacefully. Our side doesn’t care what you think anymore. We’re free of that particular burden. See you at the polls. Where this ACTUALLY gets settled.
B here. You know where I don't feel seen? Within the LGBTQ+ community. Do you know where I don't give a crap about my sexuality? My gaming. I can be anyone. Why would I be a self-insert?
Because you don't feel the need to shape your entire identity around what genitals you like. These people are so devoid of ANY personality that they must make up identities and cry about everything. BTW, good on you for not having the woke mind virus.
To say some fictional character needs to be 'exactly' like someone in real life for said real life person to even 'understand' the character is the height of narcissism.
It just tells me they only want to see THEMSELVES. As a guy who's not exactly the best looking or in the best shape, I don't WANT to see myself. I WANT to play as someone better.
@@foxboy6145 wanting representation is definitely some narcissistic bullshit, cause if we really wanted to push the diversity thing: every human is different and unique from one another so to betruly diverse we'll have to make 8 billion character, and that's not possible.
I'm almost 40, relatively well travelled, broad range of jobs... I can count the number of LGBTQ+ people I've met on one hand. Video games and Hollywood are massively over egging just how common such a lifestyle is.
Same. and that one bragged to the other warehouse workers how much 'she' even though she claimed to be a he. liked getting pregnant. Once she got them to put a lock on the mens bathroom and her the only key. she promptly locked it and 'lost' the key.
Theirs definitely ,more of them than their used to be, but that’s mostly because it’s becoming trendy to do so. It’s becoming an easy way for younger people to victimize themselves for pity points. They can’t handle not being seen or treated with special privileges so they have to go out of their way to make themselves feel important. They can’t stand only being important to some people they want to be important to everyone
@@Angelfyre. > Theirs definitely ,more of them than their used to be, but that’s mostly because it’s becoming trendy to do so Or all people who were hiding it now don't have to. When something beccomes acceptable it usually rapidly rises before plateau - look at left-handedness stats as a good example of this phenomenon. Might be a more intersting approach than patronizing and silly mantra of "they do it for attention" (which, of course, is true in some cases too - but tends to be applied en masse with little thought).
We just gotta keep holding the line at this point. As hard as it is to say, don't even get comfortable. As an old saying goes, "After victory, tighten your helmet."
They don't want representation, they want heraldry and ownership. They want to stick their flag on something and say "I own this space." Consequently, they use that to exclude anyone who isn't them. I'm autistic, and how many games show autism representation? Watch Dogs 2 has a character with Aspergers. Mass Effect 2 DLC has a character with autism. We're going 7 years without any sort of autistic representation in games, yet the pride flag, gay/trans characters, and gender/race swaps are in practically every production. This isn't representation, this is ownership. This reminds me of Duck Dodgers and Marvin the Martian planting their flags and claiming a planet.
That's how the whole agenda works. Step 1: Demand inclusion in "space" Step 2: Demand everything deemed offensive must be removed from "space" Step 3: Claim ownership of "space" Step 4: Tell anyone excluded (offensive) to create your own "space." Step 5: Rinse and repeat
@@brandonsopinion8904 The irony of how you've (correctly) outlined the process there, is that there's a word for what you've described; it's Colonization. Despite what these people believe, colonization does not specifically mean to settle on physical land, by definition it refers to appropriating a space or domain, then establishing control over the people that were there before you. I don't think it's even a stretch to say that considering the technological age that we're now in, this would absolutely apply to digital spaces and cultural collectives/industries. Honestly whether or not it technically falls under the definition of colonization is irrelevant, the point is that the mindset, the course of actions, they are identical. But bc these people are legitimately incapable of being creative or thinking critically, they'll never see it that way. They didn't literally sail into nerd culture & game industry aboard a centuries old wooden ship, so everything they've done is perfectly fine.
The Rainbow Cult will be 50% of the reason why the AAA gaming industry will crash, the other 50% will be due to the unquenching greed by the industry itself expecting us to pay out the ass for over-priced mediocre barely playable games. *Bring on the crash, shrink the industry!*
The AAA industry was headed towards a cliff the day the major studios went public. Yes, it gave them invested money but it also shackled them to shareholders. They needed the investment to show to banks so they could extend their lines of credit to keep the lights on between games, but that has led to the over monetization of games, and the pressure large shareholders can exert on the company. All most all the major studios started making bad/derivative/substandard games after going public.
I'm more uncomfortable someone finding out now that I did 20 years ago. And I feel force to make it clear how far from the alphabet mafia ideology I am. Not to be lump with the sickos "representing" us.
And this is why zero tolerance is the only correct answer when asked how much alphabet content should be in any entertainment product, etc. None. Ever.
@@brandongray1059 I am not a hard liner, but I certainly will never pay a dime to the Woke even if by some miracle they managed to make a watchable entertainment product, which is unlikely.
@@brandongray1059 it's not about being for or against but about making games before making politics. let's not be like us, intolerant. I have no problem with a gay character, but if he is there to be gay then I would call this homophobic.
13:43 "LGBTQ gamers feel like devs aren't thinking of them when making games" Maybe they should be thinking about making great games instead!? I genuinely feel bad for normal devs.
These people don't even care about actual ones. It's all about the identity, they don't care for those with actual dysphoria, or any other. They'll harass you if you are against them even if you are one or more the stuff.
@@arlisongbird9386if the medical industry cared about those with dysphoria (or anyone, really), the "treatment" they give them wouldn't be the one that requires taking expensive medicine for the rest of their lives. Weird how for basically every other similar psychological problem, the treatment is one that helps them get rid of the negative feelings, while for dysphoria it's telling them that those feelings are valid and must be obeyed.
-Yasuke was not a samurai because he had no family name. Unlike William Adams, the English navigator who did become samurai, had land and titles, and a Japanese name, Miura Anjin. -Yasuke was kashin, meaning a servant of the samurai. A kashin is anyone who serves the samurai and can be any job; cook, carpenter, maid, retainer, etc. Technically, all samurai are kashin to their lord, but not all kashin are samurai. The vast majority of kashin are mere peasants. -Yasuke was only given a short sword because as Nobunaga's retainer he was expected to commit harakiri in case he was ever cornered so as not to bring shame to his master.... which he never did because when he was captured by Mitsihide's forces he immediately threw his weapon and surrendered; Mitsuhide later remarked that he is an animal not worth killing and thus gave him back to the Jesuits. -We have no hard evidence, besides what the Jesuits themselves may claim, that Yasuke was indeed from Africa. Some Indians too have dark skin complexion as do some Arabs. And the last stop of the Jesuits before reaching Japan was India. So take this point with a grain of salt. -Yasuke only stayed in Japan for 15 months. Not enough time to train to become a samurai, if that did happen. Not enough time to learn Japanese language and customs either. -Oda Nobunaga was known to be eccentric even by Japanese standards. He frequently shit talked his various generals; he called one of them frequently saru, which means monkey. Nobunaga was fascinated by foreign things and he wanted to increase his prestige by owning something odd and foreign; that's all Yasuke was to Nobunaga, a pet. -By the time Yasuke arrived in Japan, Nobunaga was not acting as battlefield commander anymore but he was instead the tactical planner. His generals took over for him in the actual field of battle. So Yasuke never actually saw any battles, save for Honno-ji in which he wasn't even close to Nobunaga, he was staying at a nearby house alongside other servants. -Nobunaga was suspicious of others by nature at a time when suspicion was a survival strategy. If we assume that Yasuke came to Japan already fluent in the Japanese language then Nobunaga would have immediately suspected him. Why allow a guy fluent in Japanese spend time with you when he could later go report to the Jesuits? Nobunaga only kept him because he knew very little Japanese; basic commands. -The retainer/page boy job in Japan was usually done by children; boys. A child would carry his lord's sword at the palace or mansion, but in the field of battle or when travelling a warrior always carries the sword himself for obvious reasons. In case of an ambush he needs to be armed and ready.
Who cares? The bigger issue is it’s a 70 dollar game with day 1 content locked behind a paywall, and it’s a rental. More than enough reason to not buy it.
Yup. I find it this more believable when you're grounded in reality. Was having some argument on a different video making claims he was a warrior before coming to Japan. He protected the trade routes for the Jesuits before being sold to Nobunaga. Fought in Honno-ji protecting Nobunaga and his son. All embellished nonsense. Such a great warrior only to be sold off? If he was so great protecting the Jesuits, why was he sold off? In the 15 months he was in Japan, he managed to gain samurai status, let alone learning the language? The one and only battle he partook in, his lord and his son committed seppuku and was captured. If he really was fighting off the invading forces, would he really just give up and be captured? Would the invading forces allow him to live if prior, he was striking them down to protect the Oda family? I'm pretty sure he was just trying to save his own skin once Nobutada committed seppuku. Most likely never swung the sword he was given, threw it down, got on his knees and begged to be spared. That sounds more believable then him being a warrior from a distant land to a honorable samurai in Japan.
You can say all you want about what ever but tell me why yall have a whole ass giant 500 yr old statue of yasuke if he was so insignificant?? Explain that Mr Japanese man.
1) The LGBTQWTF gang are NOT a "significant" number of players. They are insanely minuscule and negligible, loud as they may be. and 2) If at this stage, they STILL do not feel "seen" when everyone is literally sick and tired of seeing them shoved in anything, it only speaks to their psychosis, not about any state of reality. This is where companies should draw the line and stop pandering to them because, as we've been saying forever, for them nothing will ever be enough.
Just call them abcd community, it hurts their feelings so much. Trust me. Best counter ever. Whatever you abcd comedians. Shrink the industry, in the long run you will fail.
It'll never be enough. The only solution is to ignore them, create the content (in all media) that you know will resonant with the majority and reject the notion that people need to see themselves in the characters. A hero is universal... it speaks to potential in all of us, it doesn't really matter what it looks like, but it should appeal to the majority. Going out of your way to claw in people from the fringes of your audience by sacrificing mass appeal is guaranteed to end in disaster.
I think I speak for many when I say that there are enough games available in my backlog to play that I would never have to spend money on a new game ever again. Especially not for $70 with THE MESSAGE in it.
Haha good point... also, if you talk to most normal people who are gay or whatever they don't buy into all the "woke" nonsense... it's just that the average person, no matter who they are, seems scared to speak out. So even among these inflated figures most of them don't even want this type of product tainted with ideology. I can't blame them; it is doing more harm than good and creating division.
@@olafthebear2327 That's a lie, even counting mobile casuals straight men still dwarf every other population when it comes to gaming. But even if we believe that lie, they are literally spending hundreds of millions catering to a population that don't care nor buy the stuff these companies are producing lmao. That's the definition of incompetence.
true mobile app games are not the only games that are out there. while there are some high quality ones out there i can tell you that there are quite a few gamers that would scoff at the idea of mobile app games as equal to games on any other platform.
I'm a mobile app gamer...I play terraria on a daily basis ..if you want to spend hundreds of not thousands on a game system and thounds more on micro transactions..and not have a life and live in your mom's basement a virgin ..is your business ..but I have a wife and kids and play mobile games ...cause I have a wife and kids and a JOB and house...I'm a gamer ...and always will be ...👍
IIRC, the number of LGBTQ+ people in the USA is roughly 11%, when you actually look at it from a unbiased source. These organizations are not unbiased. They have every reason to try to sell the idea that 100% of gamers are LGBTQ+ if possible, because they are activists, and if there is no issue, than there is no money for them. If I'm going to be charitable here, at most LGBTQ+ players are going to be roughly in the 20% range in terms of video games. I want people to reflect on that number a bit. These companies are throwing away 80% of their existing player base to TRY to appease 11% of the population, and hope they play their games, all at the behalf of activist organizations that are sucking money out like parasites, because they are absolutely lying about all their numbers. I don't believe them for a single second. Edit: Quick google search makes it 7.1% among adults. Seriously, once you look at the structure in all of this, you realize that these pandering organizations are literally just big business scams that are technically legal.
"LGBTQ+" is a political identity and is mostly not about sexual preference. LBG is about sexual preference, and that makes up about 3% of humans in the most accurate studies. All the other letters are a mix of hetero and homosexual people usually on the autistic spectrum amoung other psych illnessess. "Queer" is also a nonsensical political identity since both straight and "gay" people now identify as "queer". Those who don't have a psych illness are usually people who don't want to be "normies" make up any excuse to "identify" as something "different". It used to be goth, emo, punk etc and now it's "queer" or "non-binary" or even "trans". It's just a marxist, anti-west, anti-christian, and often anti-white political identity. And the reason why the numbers are so high in Gen Z and growing is because this political ideology keeps adding letters to their marxist cause. It's NOT because more people are actually homosexual.
Years ago, my friends and I often talked about Pride Month and the LGBT. Ten years later, a friend noticed that our university campus was celebrating its second Pride event, Pride Week, in the middle of the spring semester. Out of curiosity, we looked it up and discovered that there are nearly 100 days dedicated to Pride or significant LGBTQQIP2SA observances throughout the year. It feels like they are black hole, always consuming and never satisfied.
Soon it will be celebrated year around, They already turned easter into a transgender awareness day for what reason? Like seriously it was a perfectly good holiday prior.
1:20 these 'activists' SHOULD PAY video game players for • ads - forcing gamers to watch their -marketing- _propaganda plot.._ • damages - for ruining the game industry
People, on average, are so sick of it that companies continue to lose money in all media. The longer it goes, the fewer average people will buy or support it. Personally, I'm now highly selective of all media I purchase.
@darkjelly944 I have to mostly. Movies, newer TV shows, and games are 50/50, but I find I buy way less. I'm just not into the changes and things they implement into my escapism. It's supposed to be fun, fantasy, and enjoyable. It does shock me that despite the loss of sales and revenue, companies persist. It's fine though, it's like any product. Food, cars, PC's, books or anything else. If people don't enjoy the product, they simply stop buying them. I've just never seen so many companies blame a consumer of the product(s) get blamed for not buying what they don't enjoy as if there's something wrong with them and not the less and enjoyable product. It's actually defies logic when you think about it.
Let them fail. No one seems to understand the problem has never been about Diversity and Inclusion... It's about corporations trying to copyright all identity, write the rules for inclusion, and unilaterally behaving the power to cancel anyone who doesn't sit within their sterilized columns. That's the problem. And NO ONE should accept that, at all.
"Everything is racist, everything is sexist and you have to point it all out!" When some peoples entire lifes evolve around pointing at something and claiming that there is some problem with it, they will never stop since once everything is fine their source of money and also their identities as activists are gone. Therefore everyone who claims that there is nothing wrong becomes a major threat.
Sadly never my man. They want to destroy all dominated spaces so that we do not buy them anymore. It never was a matter of representation. Not only in games but in media in general they try to indoctrinate our children. Next generation is really cooked.
Nah, they've been running into the ground a lot longer than that. It has just becoming more and more mainstream for that long. They were doing this in comics since the early 2000s at least and have been slowly pushing it into children's programing for almost just as long.
Some people need constant validation I think. My ex boss is a lesbian and on my first day she needed to tell me about it and looked at me like "isn't that great, tell me i am a good person". A few days later her wife even showed up to meet me and she often was like "my wife this, my wife that". Good, this is so cringe. Why are these people need so much approval? I am just happy I do not need to see her anymore. It was so annoying and embarrassing.
When you hear these crazy ideologues say "we need to pull every lever" that smacks of desperation and panic - they know they are losing. People are pushing back. X was a big factor in this.
I am T's and I want it to stop, I hate the flags, the events... just all of it, I've never attended nor will to these events and all these people aren't even T either, they have no clue how dysphoria feels and is.
These narcissicists really need to be removed, everything has to be about themselves EVERYWHERE, pandering to themselves, preaching to themselves, insulting everything that is not themselves, this is sickening even character design has to be about themselves with them looking nothing like the real thing, this really has to go.
I'd rather buy one of the 12 tb Pirate drives from Amazon. Pretty hilarious to me they have many of the modern ports already installed, and make not giving studios money even easier the same time studios compete to make us not want to give them money.
@@mitchryan257 I used to have a list of bad companies that don't like me. Now it's a much smaller list of companies that haven't insulted customers. Even Capcom started down the path of pathetic creeps.
"Why Wolverine?" Because Marvel has been trying to make Wolverine gay for YEARS. That's why the new cartoon is inching towards shipping him with Morph, because Marvel has this deranged obsession with making him gay.
Not too long ago, when they brought the old X-Men team from the past, to the present, Wolverine, Cyclops, and Marvel Girl was in a polygamous relationship (and made Iceman gay). Marvel, for whatever reasons, is trying to degrade Wolverine.
If he goes gay I'll be crushed he is the man's man and sat morning old school xmen cartoon was there when my single mother had to work and my father wasn't around. He helped me aspire to the boss I am today. Please don't tell me this is true😢😢😢
These people are sad. They will just triple down on their tactics and continue to blame gamers as bigots when the products fail. The levels of denial are mind boggling
If they actually care about inclusion and diversity then actually try to be creative and make something new for LGBTQ+ community instead of gender and race swapping.
Well the problem is no one person can know everything and unless you are at the top making decisions you don't choose... if you're making an FPS maybe you have to learn all about different types of guns and how people talk and act in the military. If you don't have personal experience hiring a consultant can make sure everything is accurate, and it saves you time (aka money). It could be any random knowledge from almost any field that you don't know about since that person makes games for a living. Plus, it isn't uncommon to have to outsource SOMETHING to get your game out the door on time. So it isn't consulting ITSELF that is the issue IMO. The issue is with IDEOLOGY being pushed by activists in everything. They could be working at a McDonald's and demand everyone conform to their ideas or else. It's the same thing just taking place in a different industry.
@@naejimba That's not the consultation we are talking about tho. Consultation about historical facts or costumes, weaponry, etc... has always been a thing and it's fine. What isn't fine is DEI/ESG companies inserting their woke crap left and right and gaming companies allowing them to do it because they want the ESG money.
Even if every city, street, and law was painted with rainbow flags and trans flags, these people will say it's not enough. There's no point in trying to please the wokies, because you can give them an inch, and they'll take the whole interstate.
We already know what they're going to do with Wolverine. 1 Hint at Wolverine being gay\(insert other bs) 2 Build him up to be cool and sad. 3 Introduce Girl 4 Have that girl be X23 5 Give her a section of the game 6 Make her the protagonist of the sequel
Identity politics in a game makes it an easy pass. I have no qualms about keeping my money in my pocket. These type of developers seem to forget they need us, we don't need them. Good luck in the unemployment line. #Votewithyourwallet
Imagine being a 0,3% part of a group and you expect the whole thing to go your way all of the time cause inclusion. They are seen enough... to much even.
I avoid anything that has LGBTQ/DEI/ESG mentioned in it no matter what critics/reviews say. Enough is Enough. For example i will not go and watch new Deadpool movie (even though i LOVE Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman) as i know that money they would make from this movie will just fund and push even more woke nonsense. I wish more ppl would have a backbone and stop giving these woke corporations money. That is the ONLY way to put an end to it. Look at what unreal engine is doing, this is getting beyond ridiculous... it's officially a cult now.
So my question ultimately is this. Since ESG is clearly bleeding companies dry, if companies start to abandon it, will that cause them to in essence scrap or heavily rework all the projects that are already in development? Like for example the Insomniac leak showing that they already had Wolverine, Venom, a new Ratchet game, & Spider-man 3 cooking in the background. All these games are obviously still years out, but assuming companies start not listening to SBI and these other consulting companies, they’ll have to change at least the further out games since Wolverine is suppose to come out next year ish? What sucks too is that these companies still have clearly good people working within them since the concept art for the female characters are actually that, FEMALE. If Rift Apart was anything to go by all it took was one bitchy activist to change the design the rest of the team clearly liked.
@@SonicXAmy121Gamer They still get paid by Blackrock who funds all this woke crap. That's why they keep pushing the woke agenda even with the backlash from us gamers.

These people wish they could make a diverse likable caste of characters like in the Fallout TV show. Maximus isn’t just a token black man he’s actually got a setup, a history, motivations etc. and Lucy isn’t a girl boss, she struggles with adapting to a harsh wasteland she’s unfamiliar with. It makes the show interesting and when you see characters written this well it’s easy to like them. These writers are so creatively bankrupt they can only twist other good things into shitty things. JRR Tolkien said something about evil not being able to create only change & perverse things, and it’s very true, we’re seeing it live in real time.
*"Why go after wolverine? He's the most straight and most likely to be against the woke weirdos"* Dude, you literally answered your own question. It's a culture war, anything against them must be changed or destroyed. These are sick people.
When are these people going to learn that when it comes to this crap being in our entertainment, WE DO NOT WANT IT!!!! I will continue to boycott anything woke. I won’t watch, I won’t play, I won’t even listen. I DO NOT WANT IT!!!!
I’ve started to realise that the reason they might never be happy with their conquests is because they aren’t fully out yet, there’s something darker that they want and are just moving the Overton window. But what is it they want us to be ok with?….
They are moving the moral goal post look at them starting to push pedo stuff and pretending it’s normal look into the assassins creed Japanese chick they hired
"LGBT players don't feel represented in gaming" Sounds like THEIR problem. Not only that, but they seem to lack the creativity to "fix" that issue without taking already established characters and give them the rainbow treatment instead of making brand new characters. Then again, it never really was about "representation" now was it?
As a LGBT person myself with friends like this I have no clue where they get these unsatisfied people. ...Twitter? Most of us worldwide have been perfectly satisfied for a looooooong time.
They tried once in 2020. Anyone remember the New Heroes marvel comic book with awesome characters like the "always online and googling everything" Screentime? Or the non-binary twin due Snowflake and Safespace? Or Trailblazer, the body-positive native whoms superpower is a backpack with unlimited cargo space. Back then the world was still balking at stuff like this and the New Heroes never saw the light of day, but the world changed even in this four years, and not for the better. I wonder what might happen if they tried again now? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5PCWUCv1rnU.html
I'm a female pensioner and have been playing games since the days of the old Commodore 64 text based stuff. Game companies appear to have forgotten how to write compelling stories and purportedly fail at doing so without bringing in a consultancy company? Well maybe they deserve to go out of business then, given they fail at the basics. I never really noticed gaming being male dominated. I don't think I even thought about it. Was perfectly happy to play as Enzio Auditore or any other male character in story based games because he and others were well written and developed characters that I could identify with, their hopes and struggles became my hopes and struggles for the duration of the game. More recently I preferred to play Eivor in Valhalla as a male, because in the historical setting it made more sense to me. I don't understand this 'I can't see myself' thing that's going on recently. Do people nowadays not have imaginations any more? I don't want to see myself, I can look in any mirror to do that - I want to be immersed in a good story with a character who captures my imagination. Characters like that are sadly lacking these days, designed (badly) to purportedly appeal to everyone they actually appeal to no one.
So the only thing I will correct you on with that wolverine statement, Endymion, is that wolverine would like a cigar after headbutting. Then walk away.
indeed i would like to know where they got that study. what was there reference for it, because I've heard LGBTQ people make up a small percentage of the population, and if people who identify as strait don't count in that group then what are the real numbers when we talk about the gender groups. it sounds like they skewed their data by only surveying the younger generations so it sounds kinda like a tainted sample.
Every time it goes from representation to vastly over-representation. To a degree I get that people want to be represented in various medias but then it always goes to vastly over-representing. If you're only a very small minority of the population it stands to reason that you're not going to see your representation as much. That obviously doesn't mean there shouldn't be representation but when it gets to the point where every other commercial, movie, and game starts having that representation it becomes an issue that ends up hurting your cause. That's not what the real world looks like. it also becomes an issue because it goes way past representation and into hard-core pandering and identity politics and most people see right through that nonsense. These companies are hurting your cause, not helping.
