I like how those points are in quotation marks, as if those actually appear in-game, and not just some shit you wrote down.

Decent meme if not for the fact that it was clearly made by a retarded commie

bad faith post and bait post, conflating "politics in games then" (general political and philosophical commentary) to "politics in games now" (seen as intrusive, ham-fisted, hardline leftist by """""gamers""""")

sage, I hope this thread gets zero other replies and dies so you can learn your lesson you baiting cunt

cutting your dick off isn't political
also cyberpunk is a dystopian warning of the future so mental illness fits perfectly

Every single thing that is written down was a point made at some point in the game.

cr1tikal got to shit ever since he deluded himself he could be a "critic"
he mocked video game journalists before doing the same shit, including rushing reviews when something is still out and surface value type of takes

Fallout did not make a good case for communism either, goddamn man, it was bad on all sides it's just that America was the BIGGEST bad guy around.

That fallout one is completely wrong. Though I haven't play the nu-fallouts so I wouldn't know if beth fucked them up.

The hilarious part is that you can't say that his content used to be better or he'll pull an h3h3 and get all triggered about how he was depressed when he actually made good things so you have to slurp up him uploading videos of him watching Youtube videos on a Twitch stream or you're literally Hitler basically.

The "leftist" shit in games you're referring to has literally 0 effect on you. It's there to make people who identify a certain way feel like they can identify more with the game or a character. No one is taking options away. They are just putting options in. This is in no way bad.

Politics were put in games back then to tell a story, there was no agenda. Now media is a vessel to feed marxist propaganda to kids.

Ignoring the fact that some of the points at the top are obvious leftist projections on the actual messages of those games...
The difference is that the games on top had actually interesting ideas that were more philosophical than explicitly political, while the bottom is literally "cutting your dick off is good".

That's an interesting misunderstanding of fallout.

user, the game is a dystopian wasteland where everyone is using bottle caps as currency and thinks that the past before the war was actually good.

Probably because they're pushing anti-white politics.

>cr1tikal got to shit ever since he deluded himself he could be a "critic"
based
his reviews are actually pathetic
It's just 6 minutes of him repeating
>it's just really really good
or
>it's just really really bad
over and over and over again. It actually lowers the IQ of anyone stupid enough to watch them, regardless of whether you agree or not

Thanks for confirming that you're retarded, post disregarded :^)

What makes you think the original Fallout games were pro communism? Also by “politics” people mean the vapid consumerist politics that are currently relevant, nothing actually deep and non specific enough that it would require thinking to make a decision based on. You forget that modern political parties aren’t competing ideologies, they’re competing businesses with differing ad campaigns, they aren’t appealing to people with anything that won’t get an immediate emotional reaction and that doesn’t correlate directly to one side of shitfling. When you play the older games you listed you don’t immediately think “this has a democrat/“progressive” bend to it” nor do you think “this has a republican/conservative bend to it”. When they say political they mean “directly politically relevant” because under the current “everything is political” ideology bear taking a shit in the woods is “political”.

You're looking at it the wrong way. You hide the thread on the catalog, hop into a thread like this and you just fuck with the people who are pushing this shit. So not only is your catalog not clogged up with shit but you're also having a good time

People are dense as fuck. People dont have problem with politics in game, people have problem current politics represented in the game. You can have an ideology running amok in your setting, but when your big bad called Prumf and he is a blondie dictator with a nazi regime, its feels kinda forced.

It's more about not injecting personal politics into your game in such a blatantly obvious manner. At least try to be subtle if you want to stuff your own ideologies down our throats.

Guys we fought alongside are dying alongside the globe for no reason - no banner. But it's how they survive. The demand for PFs here in Africa is especially high. Cold War standoffs, resource exploitation, tribal clashes... What's big business for developed countries has only brought conflict here. That mess you're standing in... is just the latest example."

This. It ruined the mystery. He's just a skinny degen manlet with a deep voice.
His content is just so lazy now. He's just consuming media while being recorded.

They can't tell the difference. When your brain runs on social justice and fake off brand communism then you start seeing everything as political and offensive, like this couch cushion for example. Sure, you and I see a brown couch cushion. To them, this is an offensive and non inclusive couch cushion for white people because only the privileged whites can afford a couch and illegal immigrants cant afford a couch.

Lol it's not a conflation if the center point is that it's not politics that you have a problem with, because you even admitted that before political commentary was acceptable. If you want to make the argument that you dislike when politics are "intrusive" you can try and prove that games today have "intrusive politics", but that's never the point gamertards make, Cr1t1kal just said "man all I want is to destroy things! why do games have to be political/have deeper meaning!". Ultimately if we lived in a perfectly honest world you would never win this discussion because it's very obvious you only have a problem with games including politics that you don't like, you're not consistent on anything, you can't possibly argue that because you see a black, female, transsexual main/essential character that that concept is "intrusive politics", any mention of fighting the status quo in our real world is intrusive to you, but commentary concerning political issues you don't have a problem with is not intrusive? Please stop lying to yourself dweeb.

Define "intrusive and ham-fisted". When I was an unironic AMERICA #1 ANYTHING ANTI-AMERICAN IS EVIL lolbertarian I thought the original opening to Fallout 1 where it showed the Americans executing the Canadians while waving to the camera was hamfisted. I also thought the quest in Fallout 3 where you literally get good karma for murdering the objectively evil rich guy who discriminated against the ghouls was hamfisted, all of Bioshock was hamfisted, and the political shit on the radio in GTA was hamfisted. Now that I'm not longer that I don't think they're hamfisted.

Fallout never said communism is good, what liberal horseshit is this?

I agree with you but also let me point out that you just went and used "le" there, in essence following the exact same strawman method you're commenting on, and which sadly has become all too damn common in this place where people no longer present two things and let the stupid one be recognized on its own, instead they have to make sure to "mark" for you which of them is supposed to be dumb and bad.

The FO1 opening is so outlandish and exaggerated I could never take it as hamfisted, with the guy literally happily waving at the camera it just came off to me as indicative of what an extreme world that game took place in. Also I never thought of Bioshock as hamfisted because I never thought much of libertarianism as a "living" ideology, it seemed as dead as physiocracy.

Halo 1 was basically colonial marines from Aliens, even Pillar of Autumn looks like marine ship from the movie. I don't get this 9/11 meme, is it from Halo 4 and 5?

Reminder that if you don't let yourself go extinct while doing everything you can to help other races who won't give you the same altruism you are an asshole

>d literally rewriting the history of a Norwegian special forces unit to be replaced by a woman and her mother
Yeah, I think that was the problem and not "politics".

>this doesn't make the discussion any less politically charged or any more subtle

How do I make a working enchantment in this game.

why is the ability to make a transgender character even considered politics
how does it impede one's enjoyment of the game so much that one must take to the internet to whine about it
just let people make what they want for fuck's sake

The top three are actual politics in games; the bottom is literally just a cosmetic change with no impact on the gameplay or story of the game. The only people who care about the bottom are triggered identity politickers.

When people say they don't want politics in their videogames, they mean that they want interesting/well written/well executed/clever writing that is subtle, and doesn't try to tell you what is right or wrong to believe.
When dumb pieces of shit like you say that they want politics in videogames, what they actually mean is that they want every game to costantly scream and preach their specific political beliefs and tell people what they have to believe and to agree with.

But Critikal has been wrong about so much shit for so long. He's just being an edgy contrarian to get notis by youtube-senpai like PewDiePie did. Now all he does is post Maddox-level obvious bait but he's unoriginal and he doesn't wear passion well considering the rest of his appeal was having a very dull voice.

When your entire philosophical and political experience is surrounded by outrage culture yet you have the balls to call /pol/tards "triggered" for getting outraged over your absurd outrage.

Call of Duty at least attempts to stay true to historical events and I don't recall anybody complaining about "some chick" in COD 4.

Assassin's Creed is a series involving secret societies, magical artifacts, what essentially amounts to time travel in an alternate reality-esque experience, and aliens in the later games.

Halo is "literally" a sci-fi game about people in power armor shooting aliens.

Battlefield 5 is a "historically inspired" game which shoves disabled black female soldiers into frontline combat roles. If you can play as a tranny nazi with a wooden leg then there's no reason I can't play as a muscular half-dragon half-warewolf with a fully rendered 10" penis hanging out

It's more that so many of us were young at the time so the political dialogue went over most of our heads, or in one ear and out the other. Back then it was also easy to disregard it as "it's just a game" because it was referring to politics within its own world rather than being a poli-sci class simulator.
There were so many political cutscenes in any game back then that I just wrote-off as simple world building and basic lore of the game that I never thought had any relevance to real life. I'll admit that now it seems more blatant because some games are just trying to "get with the times" regarding social issues.

The only reason you care now is because you've been conditioned by reactionary gamers, /pol/ and braindead "CLASSICAL LIBERAL" youtubers into thinking that all leftist ideas are bad. Politics in games and other pieces of media have always been left-leaning, you just never noticed until now because you've become another cog in the Koch-funded Democrat-hating machine. Congrats, you're a mindless stooge for corporate interests.

There's a difference between a game having political themes, and a game being injected with the dev's hamfisted, bullshit "wypipo bad, orange man bad" ideology as if it's the only correct way to think. And "you're an alt-right adjacent nazi sympathizer if you disagree."

Way to reach.

/thread

There is a time and a place for it. MGS is all about politics and both sides are usually represented somewhat fairly. Cyberpunk as a form of literature is highly political, but most people are into cyberpunk for the aesthetic, not some hamfisted acceptance message.

PLENTY of people bitched, too many automatic weapons in that game, should have been 99% rifles.

Now of course they made those changes for gameplay reasons, there's absolutely no reason to stuff shit that breaks the setting that has no gameplay purpose. People are only okay with it because it's happening to white people, imagine if there were white japanese soldiers. That's just stupid.

Nobody likes identity politics besides racists and sexists. Engaging in identity politics is literally the idea of categorising people by their race and sex, applying special privileges to some and taking away rights from others. Look at that concert that had some artist called Tiny Jag, a mixed race rapper, boycott the whole thing because the venue charged non-POCs double the standard rate because they made the presumption that all white people are rich and privileged while all black people are poor and their lives suck. That is racism, and fits the bill of identity politics.

Nice fake quotes that fail to define the games correctly and only made to fit your agenda on the top you faggot.
Also the "politics" are told through fictional events and characters and made to make the player think of things on a general grand scale, principles, not like the politics of today that moralize directly to the player, judging him if he doesn't conform to the creators own personal, small minded political leanings of who they should vote for.
It's the difference between bringing up an abstract principle often with no clear outcome to mull in your mind versus telling you what to think if you want to be considered a "good" person.
Huge difference and only idiots can't tell the difference between the two, one is giving you food for thought, the other one is berating you for not doing as your told.
This is not directed at CyberPunk since the game is not even out yet, but at plenty of ideologically driven and simple minded people out there in the industry.

Retard using the oldest, stupidest strawman. You have no idea how to think for yourself or make logical connections and give evidence so you assume it can't be done.

It's not that it's hard, it's that it's another barrier in the way for a largely politically disengaged and underrepresented demographic to get their voices heard. I know it's impossible to have empathy as an edgy conservative sociopath, but try to put yourself in their shoes. After years of slavery and even more years of being second class citizens, living in a country where people hate you for something you can't control of course things are going to be fucked up. A community can't just overcome all those social issues overnight.

>Fallout saying be nicer to communism

That's fucking retarded and whoever made it is a retard. It never says be less afraid of Communism, the world fucking ended because of communists. Vault tec did pretty inhumane things in some of their vaults, but they didn't end the world, in fact, the shitty part about America is the government growing far stronger than before and taking away people's rights through fear.
If anything it's a cautionary tale against trading liberty for safety, not "We should be less afraid of other ideologies"
The communists
1. Invaded American soil in pursuit of oil while America was emphasizing nuclear power to minimize oil use
2. Stole a biological warfare virus and smashed it open in an airport (And the American government used the following outbreak as an excuse to do a power grab and become more authoritarian)
3. Fucking started the war in retaliation to losing the counter invasion to their Alaska invasion

All of the ideologies and routes presented in Fallout have to do with repeating mistakes, or trying to learn from them, with the big bad in 1 being a totalitarian that wants everyone to be the same (Super mutant) or dead/subjugated, and in 2 it's an ultra authoritarian faction of the government that doesn't see the Americans as American anymore and is willing to just mow them down in a manifest destiny 2

The difference between cautionary tales based on philosophy (Trading liberty for security only to receive neither) and modern politics in games is that one is timeless and part of the human condition in our imperfect world, while the other is more often than not "Current topic bad and only bad with no nuance", and is more often than not just demonizing and going "I'm right, they're wrong."
NV, even with Sawyer who is quite outspoken about his politics, at the least understands you can't make a game like that, and gave people a chance to find merit in all these different factions and join them, regardless of his opinion.

Those games don't suck ass because of it though. Probably because they weren't trying to mirror every ongoing political issue

White people's severe negrophilia is getting too fucking obnoxious.

You absolute dumb as a bag of bricks nigger, all of what you just mentioned is for the purpose of F U N.

Battlefield is a historical sanbox game. They take a setting and allow you to fuck around with tanks and guns and planes. That's the entire appeal of the franchise. Minor "unrealistic" changes to create fun gameplay is NOT the same thing as the SETTING being completely torn apart by black female nazis.

Yes they were, those are states with majority black populations, as you said.

Social Politics =/= Governmental Politics

>he didn't RTFM

Wrong. Oddworld literally has the stereotypical men-in-suits as antagonists, Fallout 3 literally had an objectively evil rich man, FFVII literally has the generic corporate fatcat, Fallout 2 literally had a Dan Quayle stand-in as one of the bad guys. The only reason why it's hamfisted now is because either you were too underage back then to get the blatantly obvious references or because it's only hamfisted when it's politics you don't personally like.

Not really.
Something like “censorship is about control” is clearly a common moral while “WUZ KINGS”, “down with the cis-hetero patriarchy”, and changing historical events (in a series way) are woke.
Perception is just a meme used by people who can’t back up their own opinions.

why do you niggers think just stating facts about something is a response?
What does this have to do with my point?
You aren't on twitter you faggot, you can post more then 140 characters

A bi-partisan political system was a mistake and just makes sure that an us vs them mentality is all that more pronounced.

The concept of a middle ground is far too gone in modern day society and it's all about getting your team to win, not about improving things.

The pendulum will forever swing back and forth, and we will always be in a state of disarray.

There's not really anything that you can do but cry about it and dilate, like you're doing now.

Okay, here's an example, what about the transgender character in Mass Effect Andromeda? The one that just straight up drops their "dead name" like a hat to Ryder. The character so reviled that not even transgenders hated them. Is that not forced diversity? The character doesn't do anything besides basically say "Hey I used to be a dude."

>source: paint.exe

I don't know why but i feel extremely unsympathizing with Critikal since his face reveal. He isn't even ugly, rather, how would i say it, sleazy, dirty? Something like that.

Battlefield is a multiplayer online game. Players in these kinds of games like customization options and playing as different characters. Why is that bad but using a bazooka to fly in the air is completely fine? In the end you either prioritize the enjoyment of the player or realism/accuracy and most developers will go for the former.

Your penis =/= Big

Sorry *that even transgenders hated them

That's a very long winded way of saying black people are too lazy to get an ID.

Sorry but the security of the US electoral system is more important than people who don't care enough about their country to get an ID to vote. Maybe democrats should focus on making it easier to get an ID. Or help them with it. It's not like the real motivation is to allow fraudulent illegal immigrants to vote for them.

The whole point of an ID is that it's hard to get, you fucking mongoloid. You're not convincing anyone with your faux ignorance and faggotry.
Kill yourself.

I've said this before and I'll say this again for you retards:

To "be political" does not mean "to talk about political subjects". It means TO BE A SUBJECT OF POLITICS.
Get this through your thick skulls. The push for games to be more political (and the subsequent annoyance about it) is a result of a claim that games have to be held to a responsible to political movements and ideologies. That is to say: that political organizations and movevements should maintain control over them, and use it to further their agendas.

WHENEVER somebody says "XY is/should be political", what they really say is "(my) political movement/body should have the authority to rule over XY". It does not matter if this claim is made by left or right, it does not matter what the subject of discussion is (the same exact movement has happened in all other media, as well in domains such as private and sexual life). It just means someone fancies himself to be your superior, and wants more total control over your fiction, or your personal life.

Understanding THIS, and fighting against THIS is what really matters. To reject the notion that private needs to be "Made political", that is: eradicated, given over to the authority of political discourse.

>Yea Forums revealing Critikal stopped being interesting to them once they found out he wasn't a fat unsuccessful slob they could relate to

Fucking this. Just ask any leftist, and they all unanimously agree that "fascism doesn't have a place in our world" and they genuinely do feel like it's their goal to shut it down. It doesn't matter how underhanded, dirty, and overall vile their tactics are. Their goal is to stop fascism, and they will destroy the whole world just to do it.

Kill me yourself pussy.

But it's not only about that, you clearly can see how they are pushing their agenda on video games nowadays. Allowing the player to choose to be a tranny is part of their agenda if you haven't noticed yet.

i really dont understand how you guys dont get that having political concepts in your game doesnt necessarily make your game a political work

you can have whatever configuration of fictional political conflicts or concepts going on in your game and just have them be there as a backdrop without it being intended as a statement

I'm shocked at the hoops people jump through to pretend that current year politics uplift writing. Social issues have always been the tool parties use to get stupid people involved in politics, it is literal lowest common denominator shit.

no u

Actually, that is NOT entirely true. While that may be a popular claim (it's a common and incredibly dishonest strategy employed by all totalitarian ideologies - left or right - to define themselves not through what they want to do, but rather what they oppose, makes it easier to shift attention away from the actual policies they want to employ), but the truth is:
They desperately need "faschists" and relish nothing more than their continued existence and even radicalization.
The ABSOLUTE majority of current left-wing ideologies is based on something generally known as "the theories of conflict". A very broad, over-reaching philosophy of history and social structure entirely and purely derived from the idea of all history, and all social structures being manifestation of inherent human propensity to constantly fight each other for power.
That fight, that inherent opposition, is the SOLE justification of their own existence and importance to the world. Without the so called "fascists", left would have literally no way to justify itself, to claim authority.

They fucking love the constant feeling of paranoia and strife. "The good fight" they can derive their moral superiority from.
They need their opponents. And the more their opponents resemble them, the more in power they become.
Nothing has boosted the power of left as much as birth of alt-right. They may claim they hate it, but they are fucking grateful for it.

Having blacl female nazis in a game isn't really political and pushing a agenda

maybe you should stop thinking in strawmen and absolutes, gameplay is the thing that matters most but everything else is also important as they can amplify the fun

I wouldn't consider that to be forced diversity. Since they don't design tranny characters to look like the abominations that we see in real life to tell us that visually, they involve shitty writing and characterization to tell us that. That's why it sounds forced. It's the same way with gay characters. There's no reason why or how for us to really know that they're gay other than characterization which usually doesn't matter in the immediate story.
In real life we don't know or care if someone is a fag unless they're doing something to tell us in that annoying way that they do. It's the same deal.

>>These hoops people are jumping through despite the clear evidence that video games were always political
t. zoomer with no experience with old games

The thing I hate about politics in games is not that politics are included. It's the way modern videogames handle it, they're extremely reactionary, time specific and age terribly. Criticisms and ideas like the ones found in Fallout or MGS are so general that you can play them today or in 20 years and they'll still apply, because they're making comments on the way society behaves as a whole. War, Economy, Religion, these topics will always stay relevant.
Talking about fucking Trump, racism or whatever are extremely focused and small-minded topics, they will age really quickly and fade into meaninglessness. Trying to reach for the quick, timely comment instead of looking at the greater scope of things is what ruins it for me.

Did you watch that Black Mirror episode about the black guy riding a bike? Corporations realized that they dont have to keep you away from thinking they're evil, they can just feed you media telling you that they indeed are and you will eat it because you will feel smart. The best part is they know you wont do anything about it and continue your daily life, maybe even more distracted than before.

Having a brown character in a game or a gay character in a game has no impact on actual gameplay, though. Neither does having a political story or theme. This is one of the reasons why anti-SJWs here are a meme movement because they'll ignore 99% of the game and spend hundreds of threads whining about a gay NPC in the middle of bumfuck nowhere

Yeah, it's not really "political", at least not in a clever or meaningful way, it's just dumb virtue signaling shit to pander to braindead Twitter activists like you.

dude there's like a million games and tv shows that have snide trump references and "make X great again" snipes from the villain.

Games have always been political, but to argue that these modern games are on par with Fallout 1/2 or Planescape Torment is just laughable. The latter discusses broad political spectrums and argues in the place of both, showing the biases and failings, but also the successes of the people who follow them. It lets the player make up their own mind about which choice works, and that encourages discussion among players. That's why these titles are remembered so fondly after nearly two decades.

Modern games don't do this, they just throw in caricatures of political opponents and tokenise people they're supposed to be uplifting from the dirt. I have yet to come across one transgender character worth more than toilet paper. It's always about focusing on their sexuality over their values and ideals as a person. When Yea Forums says "stop forcing shit" they don't literally mean "stop doing it full stop." The average Yea Forums poster can't express themselves properly, but it's obvious that Yea Forums and most other people just want these topics handled tastefully. Go and create black characters, transgenders, people of niche cultures, and then create an enthralling person instead of a glorified mouth piece.

There's a difference between creating political intrigue and a world's own unique political structure as worldbuilding (which is what MG does) and using a game as a hamfisted soapbox to preach at people about current trending issues.
I don't see why Charlie's wrong there. There's a shitload of games now that are built with a message to support a group or fight another group, all with some link to current day modern issues. They're intended to preach to people. This is different from say, fighting Senator Armstrong and hearing his speech. This isn't to say older games had no trending political content either, for example if any of you have heard of "A Mind Forever Voyaging" it was explicitly intended as a message to reflect the creator's viewpoints, and it's an ancient fucking text adventure game. The difference is that despite that, when that game was made, it was an exception, rather than the majority style, despite coming from a high profile company at the time. Platforms like Twitter and the like also didn't exist at the time, so devs were less likely to stand up and tell you this, even though he confirmed it in interviews.
There's also the issue of people who say "everything's inherently political" in which case it matters if there's intent. Is Kirby taking down a ruler who is greedy and corrupt "political?" In a sense, yes. But when they made the game, I highly doubt they wanted to push some sort of message, it was just a convenient children's game antagonist style.
Another point is that the devs have become extremely obnoxious about it when they do it, sometimes to the point of telling customers not to play their game if they hold different views than them, often due to how political the game is intended to be.
However, there's a point missing among all this, and that's simply that there really are tons of games that aren't jam packed with hamfisted political messages and preaching. If you look past the most high profile western AAA (cont'd)

Then there's some Japanese games, and while I wouldn't usually bring up JRPGs when arguing to threads heavy with WRPG stuff, the OP has one so just look at all the good JRPGs coming out like Dragon Quest or those ports of The Alliance Alive. Great games in other genres like management include Lobotomy Corporation, or in dungeon crawling there's Etrian Odyssey. Games like Baba Is You or any of the other games that have gleaned a deserved fanbase on here. Hell, even those fucking mahjong threads. I'm sure there's some light political message among these, but it's one I sure as hell can't detect, and if it's there, I highly doubt it's intentionally made as a message in favor of making a good game. Super Cyborg in particular is one of the best contra clones I've played.
So instead of just looking at all the huge games with hamfisted statements and trivial "bad political thing in real world is bad" shoved in your face, maybe give some stuff outside of the markets you've been looking a try. You might find that the things you've been looking for have been there the whole time.

This post reads like a 13 year old girl wrote it. I guess that's the average mentality of a leftist though.

good post lad didnt want this to 404 without you getting a (You)

How? It is not left that cries "politcal political ree" when a character is gay.

Nice no argument and childish insults

if the left didn't shut the fuck up about how great it is, there could very well be a case for it just being a glance, followed by a "tut tut, another retard."

>I kiss your mom every night. :^)
Speaking of typing like a 12 year old.

Straights give birth to gays and therefore should be thrown off a roof

last tuesday right after i banged your mum

>replacement migration
replacement migration is to offset birthrate decline
you can literally solve this by having sex, holy shit

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that the whole SJW leftist craze existed in 2011.

Fucking idiot.

>user, name a single SJW game that's good.
>Your side literally has nothing. You people are the vampires of the art world.
""""SJWs"""" make the games that you play.
MK 11 was actually a hit and so was Last of Us, which /pol/tards believe is an SJW game
Cyberpunk, Last of Us II, Wolfenstein, and Borderlands are all games that fall under your definition of SJW and they've all made successful pre-order sales and they're hyped as fuck

>It's not an argument if it triggers me

>an actual good poster
>on Yea Forums
nice

2001*

But they do when a character isn't, so there's your argument out the fucking window

This is why people call you racist.

/thread

Having sex with an emancipated mudshark post-wall roastie with all divorce laws heavily favoring women.
Great idea.
Now you know why they bring people from places where they treat their women like property.

Your mom didn't think so.

sure, and there's a million ways to promote having children which dont include flooding your country with cheap labor who tend to vote in blocks and erode social trust to dangerous levels which has long-term net negative economic effects when done en masse
but thats a problem for future country, not right now! who even cares bro lets go smoke some doob

>”Bad thing was started in a capitalist country and we would be better off with communism”
>”No, communist countries would totally have planes and phones just like the capitalist countries”
Which one is it?

Watch how nobody bothers to give this a serious response
I appreciate you though, user

Read my post again user

Yes, and they're both objectively awful games. I'm not talking about the success of sales, they're all literally just shit games. How many people are playing MK11 right now?
Yes, blackwashing a WW1 game is SJW shit.

Churches these days are filled with leftists who will burn in hell.

and replacement migration is somehow easier than all of those? do you really think this is true?

Really eloquent, go take your ritalin and stop pestering people with stupid, inane shit.

Still not political

The Left made it political. Yea Forums didn't give a single shit about black people until it was the calling card of every woke developer out there. GTA San Andreas is one of Yea Forums's most beloved games, and you literally play as a black gangster climbing the ladder from the slums into not-Las Vegas. Yea Forums fellates characters like Barrett and Sgt Johnson.

THEY CLEARLY GIVE A SHIT IF THEY'RE WILLING TO CUT INTO THEIR OWN FUNDS JUST TO SPITE YOU AND DE-PERSON YOU,YOU ABSOLUTE DENSE FUCK!

Release the numbers user.

It's the most viewed fighting game on Twitch

"Everything that doesn't align with my politics is bad"

Dilate.

>replacement migration
I love how all the "right" can do these days is parrot retarded bullshit they've been fed from foreign sources. Truly enlightened individuals.

What the hell are you talking about?

I think true "forced diversity" is taking an existing character from its final print and suddenly changing them. I know it's already called "-washing" but there's literally no reason at all for a character to suddenly not be what they were first revealed to be. If a character is written to be any race, they should always stay that way. I wouldn't want to look back on the history of a character dating back more than a decade or two, and then suddenly see them depicted differently for no reason at all. I would rather a completely new original character, but I wouldn't expect any originality from Hollywood or the video game industry these days.

why should europeans race to breed like 3rd worlders to their own detriment, instead of just stopping the flow of migrants that only bring crime and disorder? ESPECIALLY with the coming automation that is gonna put this exact type of low skill workers out a job forever

It didn't start then. What is now is merely a continuation. It will keep going until everyone has civil rights. Buckle up, cuck, because it will just get "worse" for you from here. I know how painful it is to see other groups enjoy the same things you've enjoyed your entire life.

This is a very fair stance in the situation though i feel like it is too optimistic on the state of the industry and somewhat undermines the legitimacy of the anger of those that dislike the political messaging in modern video games. Yes you can still find some genuinely good games out there but if they aren't tainted with pandering they made already be tainted with micro transactions or casual game design. The truth of the matter is that gaming has gotten a lot shittier than it used to be except graphically and that's not going to go away any time soon.

regardless great post

I know this is a bait thread but that's completely out of context. The video was response to Extra Credits' retardation where they literally advocated games to implement artificial queue times for Nazi players because multiplayer shooters currently aren't woke enough and need to remind gamers about how bad the nazis were. To battle the alt-right for the epic winz.

People aren't against politics in games, people are against self-righteous preachers trying to use to video games as recruitment channels.
