If you've played games for as long as I have, you've probably noticed a problematic trend. That is, of course, how spiders are portrayed in gaming. You're playing an RPG, you enter a cave that's dark and spooky. You see webs and bodies sprinkled throughout the level. What is there, moving in the darkness? What must you KILL in order to proceed?
Spiders.
And it's not just RPGs either. Horror games will also employ either arachnids, arachnoids, or coded-arachnid features in their monsters and villains. Remember Marguerite in Resident Evil 7? Capcom tried to shield their arachnophobia by having an infected human be the primary boss of that section. Though, to anyone with at least one working eye, her character was clearly set up to embody spider monster mythos.
Name me a game that features spiders in the protagonist role. It's hard, isn't it? Maybe you think of Squitter in DK, or the MC in Spider: The Video Game. But can you think of anything else? Most likely no.
Now name me a spider that's prominent in the game industry from the developer side of things. I'm willing to bet you couldn't think of anyone. There are at least 57 sextillion spiders in the world, and yet not a single one is working on any titles, nor HAS ever worked on a title, AAA or otherwise?
Human supremacy, that is, the belief that humans are inherently superior to all other life, is rampant and its ugliest side is shown in media's arachnophobia. Often, people are raised to think that spiders are violent, terrible creatures that deserved to be crushed or burned. To say that their depictions in games is not a contributing factor is ludicrous.
Let's change this, Yea Forums! Stop playing games where killing spiders is shown to be an okay, or, more disgustingly, a good act. Demand that game studios give info on how they'll portray spiders and deny purchase if the depiction is arachnophobic. We must call for not only more spider heroes, but also more spider coders, directors, VAs, etc. We can fix this, so why not?

the shadow is scarier than the actual spider
Helloooo
Is liking Arachne okay for this purpose, OP?
this isn't Satire, this is pure unadulterated retardation
Scorpions are superior.
fucking spiders in dark messiah
One of the two protags is a regular spider just trying to live. The other's a scorpion in case you were wondering.
This is a related issue.
Notice how she has human/humanoid traits to set her up as a good guy. A person can have spiderlike elements if they're good, but going full or mostly spider (especially in the face) will automatically make you a bad guy.
>Human supremacy, that is, the belief that humans are inherently superior to all other life
no lies detected.
You just know the spiders are hiding something deep down in the silk tunnels
I wonder who could be behind this post...

would you fuck a spider Yea Forums? not a spider monster girl, but an actual spider
No. As much as I love spiders, I do not like the idea of either killing it with my dick or letting it crawl into my dick. Are there even spiders big enough to fuck? Even someone with a micropenis would probably kill the biggest spider.
people who try to trigger my spider phobia in games are doing it all wrong. the only spider that really creeps me out are the big daddy long leg spiders. But you never see those in video games.
>problematic trend
Stopped reading there.
So what cringe games journalism website did you copy-paste this from?
Ur dumb
You can be a spider in Project Gorgon.
OP is talking about spiders. No gaming journalist would suicide their "career" by writing spiders as the good guys.
I hate having aracnaphobia, and also whatever the phobia for flying insects is called, it is such a stupid thing to be scared of. I fucking freeze and then just panic, it's shameful as hell.
>tfw couldn't be scared of something logical like snakes
>tfw panic whenever a wasp flies within a mile of me
If it was big enough, certainly.
Those aren’t spiders so you’re fine
Spiders is no laughing matter.
Me mate got done in by a spider, eaten whole, the poor bugger.
Dude you are retarded, op is very obviously making fun of people who want to put minorities in video and have them create video games
I see, yeah, I can get behind that. I've always had an admiration and respect for them but my issue is that people give you funny looks if you actually wanna fuck one, so arachne are a good compromise.
If it is who you think it is help me go out with them.
Like, turn into a spider temporarily using a spell, or roll a spider character?
I know that feel. If anything even vaguely yellow flies near me I flip my shit. I know I look like a fucking retard when I'm walking normally and all of a sudden start ducking and weaving to try and make some distance.
You turn into a spider permanently and the character cannot be un-turned unless you get a potion that un-spiders you. It gets its own skills and abilities.
>SJW actually stands for spider justice warriors
oh fuck
The spiders in The Haunted Mansion really fucked me up when I was a kid.
Fucking awesome. That sounds like it's supposed to be considered a curse though and that it would be really difficult to play through the game like that. However, I'm still absolutely going download the demo to see if it's fun enough to get to whatever part this happens in. Thanks user.
These little wretches. His appearance is quite generous and little intimately, but the sound he makes is terribly disgusting and makes me nervous. The only angry enemy in a video game, (along with the spiders of Harry Potter and secret camera.) That managed to make me afraid of them.
>Harry Potter and secret camera
wut
IMO the only game that really made spiders scary was lord of the rings return of the king. shelob's lair and the final boss fight with shelob makes me shudder. the hobbit game also did a pretty good job. skyrim's frost spiders are cute rather than scary.
it makes sense for spiders to be antagonistic in games though, that's just their role.
i mean at least there was spider man. does he count as a spider protagonist? is he representative of the spider community? or do they take offense to the fact that he's humanoid?
was spider man nothing more than an attempt to pander to the spider community?
see
man fuck spiders
I can't even read your thread because I have to look at that fucking spider. i have scrolled down just to let you know this. i will paste your text into a notepad and read it there because i fucking HATE looking at that ugly ass spider fucker and YES i have played skyrim.
it's an attempt to fade out spider culture under the guise of equal rights.
Kys spiders.
I will kill you with fire in any chance I have in videogames.
>There are at least 57 sextillion spiders in the world, and yet not a single one is working on any titles, nor HAS ever worked on a title, AAA or otherwise?
they do a valuable service keeping flies out of company offices so that those games can be made. in many companies, spiders are a welcome addition to the team and treated with equal respect.
What about spidersman?
He is a spiderman from a different universe who is just a bunch of spiders in a suit.
And he's a hero.
Human hunger the fights off not withstanding.
>adult male
>being unironically scared by a mere insect who can easily be crushed at your will
I recommend cutting your dick off at that point. There's just no hope for you.

Lmao
Spiders aren't insects
based retard
Depends where you live, some places in the world have the big poison ones you should fear
i've never been that afraid of spiders but the way the spiders acted in dark souls 2 really fucked me and it gave me a decent understanding of what it's like to be arachnophobic
the worst part is the beginning when they're just sitting in holes or up in the ceiling, waiting to ambush you
also these fuckers
Fuck you spider fucks do you have no sense of personal space?
You fuckers keep coming into my room and even though I kill you and leave your corpses on my balcony as a warning you still insist. One time you even tried to crawl up my leg.
Enough is enough, I'll eradicate every single spider and spider apologist in existance. You shall all feel my wrath.
I would die.
I'm kinda afraid of spiders (I can kill them but I need to muster my courage for it, if they're big of course otherwise idc) but I've never cared much about videogames spiders.
When I was faily young I played Harry Potter 2 on PC which features some bossfight below a ENORMOUS spider and I was mildly unsettled but not much more. Played lots of games with spiders of various sizes ever since.
>adult male
>iq still so low he doesn't know spiders aren't insects
Only reason I have not played DaS 2.
But they just love you, user. They just want to protect you from other more annoying bugs and give you hugs and snuggles occasionally. How can you deny such unwaivering love? A love so strong that they disregard the warnings of their dead kin?
Call my IQ as low as you like, but at the very least I don't start crying like a little bitch beta faggot when I see a spider.
>arachnid bites you because you're such a cool badass and were bred out of stock that lacked survival instincts
>die of necrosis
There is a reason humanity fears spiders, those that didn't fear spiders died off.
I actually stopped playing this game when I got to this part, like 10 years ago, and never started it again.
If they truly love me then they'll understand why they should stay the fuck out.
Nothing awaits them in my room except for a swift electrical execution from pic related.
At least I'll die proud, whereas a spineless, effeminate retard like you would choose to put himself on the same level as a scared little girl to ensure survival, and live a life of everlasting shame.
Retards like you dying off is a good thing, it allows humanity to evolve.
I don't long to live in a world where modern "males" have evolved into trannies who hide in the corner as soon as they see a cute little spider.
I hope a spider crawls into your mouth while you sleep and destroys you from inside out.
I had a big giant spider friend in my DnD game but he got squished. Very sad.

lmao you cheeky fucker
>tfw your waifu falls into a web and is pulled down by an ungodly large spider

Why you gotta do this user
Is this how you get your sick kicks?
Your DM just hated seeing you having a friendly relationship with a spider so he killed him for his own personal gains.
Hmmm I wonder who could be behind this post?
Spiders, fuck man.
This was the worst spider experience in games, the size, the cramped caves, the way they jump right at your face. Second was the poison Headcrabs in Ravenholm.
I was thinking of this in Metro Exodus, spiders crawl all over you constantly
what game is this?
It's called check the filename you nigger
Sorry, I should have assumed that zoomers wouldn't at least know Half Life 2.
Did someone say, spiders?
IRL I don't mind spiders at all, I actually try to get them outside if i find one in house. I don't like killing them.
Probably the coolest insects.
But I also like how they are depicted in media. Horrible monsters lol
ugh! what was this from? i just saw this movie
I liked that Metro LL DLC mission
>insects

Fear of spiders is litterally engraved in your DNA user
Also, spiders arent insects
don't be silly, we don't know how to use computers
does the skysnare spider have like 7+ legs on each side?
looks like it could be up to 10
I've never been particularly bothered by spiders, but I guess I've also never had any bad experiences with them that would make me scared of them either.
The only time I ever even see them up close is when a retarded one gets stuck in the bathtub and I have to coax them into a cup and dump them back outside.
nice try, everyone knows spider are phoneposters
>adult male
>unable to distinguish between insects and arachnids
the more the merrier
Spiders should be crushed and burned. Ugly ass fuckers need to stay out of my apartment.
I don't have arachnophobia but giant cockroaches freak me out
I had to mod them out of Fallout 3 because i had a nightmare where i was in a tiny room swarmed by them eating my flesh or something
I hate cockroaches aswell, my nightmare bug is centipedes though. Jesus those things are horrible
bloatflies are infinitely more disgusting
Am I dreaming or has Yea Forums for once remembered to actually be funny when making fun of silly people instead of just REEEing?
What are some games about living peacefully with spiders?
Thanks you added a lot to the thread my fellow intellectual
DKC2
I have arachnophobia, and that whole area alone probably added at least 10 hours to my playthrough.
How did you like it in NG+?
Why are humans like this
hot
I wish I was that spider
>That initial twitch it does as they begin extracting the silk
tags: mindbroken
spider silk is stronger than steel
a lot of potential uses for it
Spiders in video games never bothered me until I played Conan Exiles. They skitter so fast and attack in pairs, and my god I lost my shit when a giant one ran at me over a mountain.
Its not nearly as easy to produce in high capacity as steel. This is just animal cruelty
I was okay with the area at that point, because I had every single spider location memorized to a T, so I wasn't getting jumpscared anymore, and it helped that the enemies themselves are goofy looking.
The way that they would sit perfectly still on walls, and slowly descend upon you near the end of the area still unnerved me. Speaking of the end of that area, that shit was the worst part, reminded me of my worst nightmares where I kept finding more and more spiders and webs in my house as the nightmare goes on, until they're fucking swarming me and I finally wake up.
>This is just animal cruelty
no more so than milking a cow
Nothing is wrong with torturing spiders. Those niggers deserve to be extinct.
>tfw Bugs Life on PS1
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
I dont remember cowbros being nailed to a board and probably executed after the milking process
go to bed australia, spiders here a total homies
DELETE THIS. NOW.
actually it is. i just saw some show where they had a guy who engineered goats with spider DNA so that they could get spider silk from goat's milk on an industrial scale.
I live in America. I still fucking hate them and if I had 3 wishes from a genie, one of them would definitely be the extinction of all spiders.
>not getting rid of KEKroaches, mosquitoes and wasps instead
You are overreacting. Let us focus on humanitys worst enemy, Der ewige TICK
what do they do with it?
Those are nowhere near as annoying or disturbing looking as spiders.
i don't think they mentioned what they did with it. it was more about how crazy it was to get spider silk out of goat's milk. i think it has a lot of uses though. it's extremely strong and flexible.
FUCK the Twilight Princess Skulltulas. The ones in OoT and SS are goofy and cartoonish, meanwhile the way these things fucking *crawl*, ughhh.
then you would have to use one of your other wishes to combat the dramatically rising insect population when there aren't any spiders to eat them.
How are spiders any worse than any of those? 3 of them are serious disease vectors and one is the most aggressive stinging thingy around, and it fucking flies.
Him taking his eyes off the spider ruins it.
>yeah I'll just take my eyes off this fuck huge spider that is less than 2 feet from my head because I dont have the coordination to pick up a lamp without looking directly at it.
>making any species extinct
At least get rid of the parasites that don't contribute to the food chain beyond something munching on their worthless corpses. All of those species are important animals in the food chain. Just think how many meals would be taken away if other creatures couldn't eat mosquitoes, wasps or cockroaches.
bull fucking shit
Fuck Skulltulas dude...
this nigga got spooked and is now nitpicking the vid with 20/20 hindsight to feel better about himself lmaooo
Dude
they latch onto you and you have get an operation in some cases to remove them from your body. You can easily just avoid spiders
Fine, I dont care about goats anyway. There is a reason they are associated with the devil. Have you seen their eyes? Fucking creepy I say, milk them fuckers for all the silk they got
Spiders aren't the only things that eat insects, we could do without them.
Spiders build fucking webs wherever they please, constantly in your way, sometimes even making huge ones that span from fence to fence across your entire backyard just to say "fuck you this is mine now". On top of that they are just one of the ugliest motherfucking things on this planet. Spiders can also be dangerous as well when they're poisonous.
They are absolutely spiders. Daddy-Long-Legs can also refer to mosquito hawks/crane flies but it’s pretty clear he’s talking about the actual spiders.
This. The spiders look like cartoons. Such a wasted opportunity to make Skyrim a little more spooky.
>take care of annoying pests like flies
>master engineers, building incredible webs
>vast majority completely harmless
>harmful ones only bite with provocation
Spiders are bros
fuck off spider
>implying that spiders are nastier than nature's biggest cunts
I'd take rather deal with an entire barn full of spider nests over one flying cockroach desu
>You can easily just avoid spiders
Except when you fucking can't because these niggers will build webs that actually block your path, they'll come down right in front of your face while shitting web from the ceiling, and some of them will even jump right onto you, using their web as a fucking launch pad.
Oh god please no
Calm down americanoid, you watch too many movies
When spiders fall in the sink to drink water, they cant get out... i feel good helping them, recluse spider mostly
Critterposting is a god tier chan meme
What is it about spiders, though? I mean they’re pretty weird looking and they move all funky but so do millipedes, you don’t see people getting all panicky over millipedes all the damn time.
m8 spiders are literally over a million times smaller than humans, they aren't interested in attacking you, it would be suicide
I basically don't watch movies outside of anime ones.
Because they are a lot more rare and I don't believe there are species of millipede that can move really fast while a few spiders can.
Based spiderbro, telling it as it is.
Maybe spiders seem him and go all Attack on Titan shit on him for some reason
I agree with that guy in the screencap. House centipedes are fucking great. They became a very welcome member of my house as soon as I learned that they eat spiders
Centipedes and millipedes can move fast as shit. You must have heard the Knife Party song at least once, at this point we all know there are giant tropical centipedes that kill and eat tarantulas.
My only contact to azn culture is hentai.
Which was the last good one you watched? For me it was your name
Please, oh please, give the sauce to me's.
Hell yes

>my comic edit got posted on some normalfag meme website and then got reposted back on Yea Forums
Weird loop. Go back, by the way.
Where do you even put your dick?
We rule the world, we do what we want with it.
The point is that they are annoying on top of being creepy. If one comes down in front of your face, you can't just swat it away like a fly, because its web will get stuck to you, and then the spider will be hanging off of you instead of the ceiling.
I'd rather deal with wasps.
Then this just proves my point. I don't think the general population knows this and even less that have experienced it, so they are blissfully unaware, like me.
youtube.com
This video is one I'll never forget.
I used to be hyper afraid of Spiders. Now I can pick up Tarantulas and toss them.
What made you unafraid?
GJ-bu
I wouldn't mind them so much but I got bitten by a brown recluse when I was sleeping once, so now if I see anything remotely similar its getting the boot. Jumping and cellar spiders are okay though.
MHA Two Heroes was entertaining. I only watch anime movies of series I'm invested in, really not a big movie guy in general.
What the fuck. Is this some kind of spider torture porn?
Giant tropical centipedes share their territories with tarantulas.
Despite it’s impressive length, it’s a nimble navigator,
And some can be highly venomous.
As quick as lightning, just like the tarantula it’s killing,
The centipede has two curved hollow fangs which inject paralyzing venom.
Even tarantulas aren’t immune from an ambush.
At this point I consider it common knowledge, honestly.
tarantulas are barely spiders though. they move kind of slow and are furry. i find smaller black spiders that can jump much more creepy.
Because there aren't enough virtue signalling activists myopically focused on retarded issues like the suffering of bugs (but only certain bugs, in very specific circumstances)
>tossing spiders after picking them up
>not immediately seeking out the nearest arachnophobe to show them it
You still have a lot to learn, user.
Maybe he's tossing them at arachnophobes

Spiders are good problem solvers too

I don't know, I just stopped being afraid. I didn't really do anything, I don't even really know when I stopped being afraid of them, they just don't bother me anymore.
>*spider sounds*
The sound mosquitoes make a couple inches from my ear, is the only thing that make me cringe in real life. It's the only fucking being keeping me from sleeping or waking me up in the middle of the night, activating my primal instincts and turning me in a mad man. I'd rather keep my house tropical hot, than open a window mid summer. They are right there, prowling on the glass, waiting for a chance to suck my precious blood or crawl in my ear. Spiders in my house are like furniture. There's absolutely no good reason to hate on all spiders when these literal deformed succubus exists in real life, fuck bitch mosquitoes and fuck Arachnophobes too, grow up.
>Spiders in my house are like furniture.
You an australian?

if you want to fuck an anime girl with a few more eyes or a spider lower body with a human upperbody you don't want to fuck "spidergirls" you fucking normalfags
Mosquitoes actively seek humans out. I'm such a softie I feel bad about hurting even flies and wasps, but mosquitoes I will always kill on sight. They're parasites of homo sapiens.
This, spidergirls like spiderman are more normalfags

I don't think we like anything that's angular, oddly-proportioned or unpredictable. Most people scared of mice and rats hate their sudden appearances and unusually long tails.
A healthy dose of paranoia kept people alive back when we had zero medical knowledge and even small wounds could fester and kill you

Insects and arachnids can cause all sorts of nuisances, wounds and diseases which can develop into more serious complications when there's no medicine to treat them. I guess the genetic thing varies from person to person though, I don't see spiders as particularly scarier than other arthropods by cockroaches gross me out a ton.

It's because the ones in TW actually move around like real spiders.
I love 'em.
they cute
Mother fucker, the last time I felt bad for a spider and let it live with me it just gave birth to hundreds of babies and caused an infestation.
It's some literal pixels on the screen. Man up and kill it you faggots.
All houses should have spiders in them. Hundreds, yes! Bring them, bring them all in.
>grabs a large scoop of spiders and tosses them in the air
Haha. Glorius.
Spiders in video games almost never scare me. It's because they always have designs that are TOO ridiculous and unnatural. This is coming from someone who is deathly arachnophobic.
I want a video game where the spiders look exactly like normal tarantulas.
try it in VR
Hahahahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Arachnophobia Real Hahahaha Nigga Just Walk On The Spider Like Nigga Just Wear Shoes Haha

>what is their point?
Yeah, why? I can fucking jump. Why do we need spiders that can jump, what do they contribute to the ecosystem?
Spiders are the best bros and hoes during summer time, gets rids of all the pesky flies and whatnot. Let them in user, they won't hurt you. And we are pretty scared of you anyway so they wouldn't bite you or anything.
most animals cant jump
God put them on Earth to test our reflexes

everything else is great
if you think that series is awful, youre a fucking talentless hack that has no fucking awareness of creativity or understanding of the mis en scene of cinematography.
I remember as a kid playing TotalMiner with friends not knowing about the spiders and the fact that they scream when they leap at you
The thing that scares me is how ingrained this bias against spiders is, there are worse critters to fear than spiders.
>Aggressive spider enemies in whatever media
>No natural prey for said spider, only humans and whatever made up shit enemy
So progressive and healthy for the mind.
The spider in Rayman 2 scared the shit out of me
What if there was a game where you are a spider.
And then you become progressively more mutated and horrific.
Is it
1. Big enough
2. Sentient?
I don't really want to fuck a literal animal
most animals are under water and cant jump
he is right
>YOU MAD APEBOI
I haven't seen them all but the one with fighting colisseum monsters was such a SJW fulfillement fantasy that I audibly snickered without intending it when I realized what they were doing
Animation was good I guess
Why does this spider have fuckme eyes?
Because the creators know the best fetish.
I absolutely acknowledge that my fear of spiders is unnecessary and at the end of the day stupid. I try to genuinely keep my cool in real life situations and afterwards I find a small small amount of pride mentally surviving this stupid fear of a small spider that’s obviously not poisonous or even a biting kind
But this sequence. THIS FUCKING SEQUENCE. Having to pause after almost every spider to regain composure and getting to the point where i just said “FUCK IT” and activated noclip because thank god it’s a source mod.
When I saw this thread this was the area I thought of instantly even more than any Bethesda spider.
Fucking amazing game and I give props for having the best spiders but fuck you for having such good ass spiders
You mean "spiders fuck man"?
>grew up in the country among all kinds of animals
>never afraid of any horses, cows, snakes, insects, taught how to handle various species
>one day waking up
>feel something fuzzy on my hand right next to my face
>the biggest motherfucking mckingkong spider crawling basically right in to my face
>shriek and jump out of bed
>nobody home, father probably working in the field and mom doing shopping
>peek back in my room
>no sign of spider
>get more and more paranoid, spiraling way out of control, think theres probably a whole nest under my bed or something
>mom comes badck and finds me in tears 30 minutes later
>have the biggest bitch arachnophobia since then
seein a spider with no obstacles between me and it literally breaks my mind, i freeze and cant do anything about it
i was 7 yo then
>Seen 5 of the same looking spiders in my house this week
It probably doesn't help that I'm just throwing them outside instead of killing them, but holy shit could they just fuck off already

Oh my god the timing is too perfect. This must be a fabled dual-wielding IP poster.
Spider Job

FUCK YOU OP SPIDERS DESERVE THE BULLET
I KNOW HOW YOU FUCKS WORK, YOU’RE FUCKING EVIL SONS OF BITCHES THAT TRAP PEOPLE IN YOUR WEBS AND DRINK YHEIR LIQUIFIED INSIDES
IM NEVER GOING TO ACCEPT YOU AS ANYTHING BUT THE MALEVOLENT FORCE YOU ARE
Yes! Thank you! Spiders play games too!
there's a game where you play as a spider and a scorpion, don't know about one where you mutate.
Yo that spider is getting FUCKED
Fuck off, spigger
Fuck spiders, man.
they're probably really good at fighting games
Am I a fag if I wouldn’t hit any of them because I’m deathly afraid of spiders? I’d hear their footsteps going off like machine gun fire behind me and I’d start sweating, then I’d see their legs moving and I’d start screaming and running away
For me, it’s beetles.
Look carefully and you'll notice no nail is piercing the spider
>tfw some hag gets pulled down into a pit by a giant spider so you go down and rescue her for the free skillpoint then kick her back down into the hole because you've already got a waifu in your head.
