This. It’s not politics when it doesn’t comment on trump or the state of America today, but you make one kill nazi joke or let blacks and gays into your video games and suddenly the incels are on full offense.

lmao, if FFVII released today Yea Forums would have a fit

There is a difference between political themes such as "nukes r bad" in MGS, and the leftist propaganda that's in modern burger/yuro games

it's not that games are political, it's that they pander to the highest bidder

And Bioshock would get labeled as being communist propaganda

>American government decides to murder its own citizens in a cover-up
>Marines portrayed as bloodthirsty psychos while scientists are portrayed nobly
>Implied that almost everyone on Earth is unconsciously following the whims of secret conspiracies

the difference is these games have nuance and aren't simple tranny propaganda

If you say so.
How is Nines wrong?

I never liked mgs personally, it's a moviegame any way
even so it has more nuance than that with its moral statements mostly serving the story and characters rather than the other way around

theres a difference between those politics and nu-identity politics

truth be told people are just sick of obnoxious dykes/fags dictating what everyone should like and think.
If it wasn't for this America wouldn't have a pathetic clown for president

That's actually clever. You can't find thing as well made as this in modern titles.

People already have been bitching about it for the pop culture references

When people mean stop shoving politics in there games they mean liberal shit and you know it OP. Stop pretending to be a centrist.

t. someone who doesnt understand the difference between politics in world building/storytelling(which nobody has a problem with) and censoring/banning/changing stuff because some tranny forgot to dilate and is now without cruise control while screeching about politics

seriously: learn.the.fucking.difference!

>Stop [awkwardly] shoving [current year progressive propaganda] in my games!
People used to like politics in games and used to like discussing politics in games because:

(a) The political content came from a place of creative honesty
(b) You could discuss politics and share your opinions without crybabies getting offended and organizing a twitter mob to harass your employer until they fire you for being a nazi.

Politics were secondary or implicit in many of those examples. As an example, Wolfenstein wasn't directly trying to preach a message, it just used nazis and their weirdness for a good foundation to do weird shit like mechahitler and later pseudo-horror demons. By modern standard Nu-Wolfenstein tries too hard to make political statements and allusions to real life situations instead of just putting all focus into being as weird and campy as possible(note: its still weird and campy, but not as much as it should or could be. Even then the weird and camp is to further a political agenda in the most blunt easy to consume way possible)

>Game A is made by a bunch of socialist millennials
>it tells you that capitalism = bad and that men = evil
>it also indulges in "progressive" virtues such as sexual deviance
>game turns out to be very preachy and many people involved in creating it openly show their disdain for gamers
>game usually isn't fun to play but looks superficially pretty and gets high praise from woke games media
this is what we refer to when we say stop shoving YOUR politics into our games

>Game B is a game made by a bunch of proper nerds
>game has internal political system that might be inspired by but is not blatantly copied from current real world politics or history
>game explores its fictional system in ways that we might not think about in our day to day lives
>game is made to be appealing to gamers and can be enjoyed for gameplay alone even by those who don't care about the underlying themes
I will now buy your game

Every single game in the OP is leftist.

Political issues in games are fine. It's just pretty painful to see a game passionately take the socially acceptable stance on very widely discussed issues, as if it's a notable thing to do.

There was not anything really political in Wolfenstein 3D. It was just a run and gun FPS. You could mod the game to replace the enemies with NKVD and Red Army personnel and change the propaganda images to Soviet ones. In fact, there is even a mod taking place during the Cold War and involves fighting commies.

By the way, I wish the real original Wolfenstein would get some attention.

As for FF7, there is a revelation that the motives of AVALANCHE were more personal than political and that saving the planet from literally dying was simply an added motivation. They are kind of like the "environmentalists" who have daddy issues except the FF7 cast grew up and realized their own self-righteousness.

Leftist in the since of trying to bring people into a way of thinking about said problems. They don't demonize and blatantly attack the other side under blankets of propaganda.

When you're playing a game that just somehow """coincidentally""" manages to tick every box in the progressive demand list and is dominated by narratives that overtly confirm their (warped) worldview and prejudices at every opportunity, it's propaganda.

yeah that was back before the left went completely insane sometime around 2012-2013. Yes the crazy elements always existed and there was a notable thrust of Political Correctness in the 90s but the current plague didn't really exist then and exerted minimal influence on creative people. They were far more worried about conservative mothers.

The kids grew up and loved to shovel shit into their mouths once they had their own money to spend. Who is to fault for the poop supplier for never learning otherwise?

The only two games in that list I would qualify as political are Deus Ex and Metal Gear Solid.

>Confusing in-game worldbuilding and throwaway lines with political content
Also, "Masses good, elite bad" is a bromide that has been repeated since time immemorial. Remember that people who insist that everything is or must be political are just looking for a way to shove propaganda into your mouth.

but also the other way round. if you say nowadays that any leftist idea put in a game might be good Yea Forums would sperg the fuck out

Deus Ex is Libertarian if anything. not sure about the others except FF7 which is protecting the plants. A much more persuasive topic than "kill that ebil nahzee no more white males"

Half-Life wasn't overtly political but its entire story with an evil government conspiracy, classified immoral bio-weapons projects, and dumb brutish bloodthirsty government goons came straight out of the political climate of the mid 90s. Skepticism towards the federal government for Waco and the Iran-Contra Affair pardons and the popularity of conspiracy thrillers like The X-Files meant an American developer could get away with a game where the hero basically massacres a battalion of moronic (judging by their inability to spell "you're"), trigger-happy black ops soldiers.

Trust in the U.S. federal government hit a nadir around the time HL1 started development in the mid-90s.
people-press.org/2015/11/23/1-trust-in-government-1958-2015/

that's a really clumsy and awkward analogy for a very complex problem involving postmodern academia, the rapid spread of the internet in particular the rise of social media, and perverted political incentives (to import dirt-worlders to complain about white people and vote against the party of white people).

Sure but nobody really cares about Yea Forums. You can't even prove it's not some false-flagging troll doing it on purpose to generate controversy attention.

there's also the problem that most leftist ideas currently popular are objectively retarded and almost invariably lead to shit content. (It's not like there are games talking about universal healthcare. It's all gender+identify politics bullshit)

Halo's story was absolutely influenced by Islamic fundamentalism. It was big in the news well before 9/11, and went into overdrive after 9/11. This wasn't exclusive to Halo: over the last two and a half decades or so, the greatest threat to 'civilization' in the popular imagination comes in the form of fanatical extremist religious cults (as opposed to before then, where it was Communists, or before then, where it was Fascists). Thus the Covenant; a highly advanced, fanatically religious, threat to civilization, which cannot be negotiated or bargained with. Since I keep an eye on some tabletop war gaming, two other examples to immediately spring to mind are the Word of Blake Jihad (BattleTech) and the Cygnar-Menoth war (Iron Kingdoms). (Respectively, fanatical technology cult declares war on all other states, using religion and memetics to control people, and throwing nuclear weaponry around; and a fanatical monotheist theocracy from a desert kingdom going on a crusade to take over and convert a more liberal steampunk kingdom.) Another example? The Brotherhood of Nod, perhaps? (C&C) Or in Supreme Commander, notice how one of the main bad guys, again, was the fanatical self-sacrificing extremist religion?

It's not even just the Covenant's religious fanaticism. I think the Insurrection are dirty terrorists because of the War on Terror. It's quite transparent: the UEG/UNSC are Space America, real America fights terrorists, therefore Space America fights Space Terrorists. The bits with the Insurrectionists near the start of The Fall of Reach feel a lot like they're about elite American commandos training to fight al-Qaeda.

>I wouldn't call it politics, rather conspiracies

It's undeniable that all of those games would get shat on if they released today for shoving politics.

I remember even before the arguments over "the politics of games" started in the mid-2010s (Gamergate probably triggered that more than anything else, even if that wasn't the original goal), lefties got extremely mad at Bioshock 2 and Bioshock Infinite for respectively showing that socialists can totalitarian as and tyrannical as the worst right-wingers in pursuit of their Utopian goals and that plucky rebels in civil wars almost always radicalize and become utterly murderous and indiscriminate due to how dehumanizing civil wars and repressive regimes are in the first place. They argued that it made a false equivalence between them and the villains of Bioshock 1 and the other two thirds of Bioshock Infinite, those being an Objectivist ideologue and an ultra-racist, ultra-xenophobic, hyper-jingoistic government modeled on the most ghoulish extremes of American Exceptionalism.

Amusingly, Bioshock Infinite's position was completely validated (again) barely a few months after its release, when the factions fighting the ethnicist, repressive, murderous Syrian government radicalized and became almost completely dominated by Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Do you think a nigger should be the default character in a video game in the western world, home of white man? Yes or no?

52% of gamers are women

no it should be native american

That isn’t clever at all. It’s literally putting a real life VP in a video game and slightly changing his name. If someone did that with Trump or Pence everyone would bitch. The only reason why no one complains now is because Trump supporters are boomers with dementia or zoomers who don’t know or remember who Dan Quayle is

Wolf was not political until bethesda got ahold of it, it was way more focused on the occult side of nazism you would know that if you ever played any wolf game made before this decade.

Deus ex was like a bunch of dudes in texas listening to alex jones on the radio and making a game of it. If you dont see the alex jones influence in the game its because youre retarded

It's a literal propaganda slideshow. Somehow, SJWs are the people that bark the loudest so the shareholders ask the devs to put some thing here and there for good boy points. That's how you end up with Solider "I sucked" 76 (dicks)

I don't mind it at all ; it's just obviously for diversity points and it's taking a bland character from a shitty game.

It literally says that western European white men shouldn't be the default character in western a European video game. Why should it be ended?

Women can have all the characters in candy crush, I'm completely fine with that

That one is blatantly wrong and not a message the game is trying to convey. Even though Shinra was destroying the planet, Tifa says they were wrong at a few points and even Barret who spearheaded the organization admits he was wrong for killing all those people at one point towards the end when you're on the airship. Also their one terroristic act of blowing up that one reactor had about zero net effect on Shinra's operations.

NuWolfenstein is a perfect example. In the first game the Nazis won WW2 and it was horrifying to see advanced concentration camps and how the world would change. There were no forced scenes where someone would take to you about how oppressed black women are and how they should be the ones in charge. The second has you siding with communists because they're way better than the Nazis, and "hur dur white pepol gave up on fighting Nazis because they raysus! Start the revolution against the white man because the KKK is in charge now" Marketing about how it's okay to punch Nazis and how we need to "make America nazi free again" which is an obvious nod to Richard Spencer and the MAGA slogan.

It's all just really cringe inducing.

People here keep trying to deny those games are pitical just shows how stupid and quick people are to defend what they like.

Politics in games are fine, the actual problem is developers who focus solely on the politocs and story while ignoring the gameplay. Even then people will defend games or any political media as long as it caters to their political stance, no matter how heavy handed it is.

There's a good handful of people starting to not care anymore, it honestly feels like a weight being lifted off your shoulders.

Obfuscating the point and stretching things to ridiculous may be a good tactic to try and demoralize an opponent, but it doesn't work when you reject the ridiculous attempt to push the argument to absurd limits. The fact remains that when a game seeks to act as a vehicle of propaganda, especially in the context of today's extremely twisted ideological hold on society today and the destruction of any form of actual tolerance, it is a major detriment to that game.

so left wingers are angry because most people dont want trannies or faggots in their games and they retort with B-BUT LE OLD VIDEO GAMES HAD POLITICS TOO?

>expecting ideological consistency from the right

They don’t care if you call them out on their hypocrisy, because if they had any real moral principles they wouldn’t be conservatives in the first place.

They don’t stand for anything besides what OWNS THE LIBS the most at any given time. If rightists were rational or empathetic, they would be leftists.

Well I don't try to make excuses for it or blame the kikes for my countrymen letting me down

No, I will not! Tiberium is actually useful, at the very least it can produce cool shit in our lifetime. Oil can only be used as a convenient energy resource that slowly boils the entire human species. Fuck that shit.

Wasnt Miriam rightt about a majority of the tech

>this much projection without even a hint of self-awareness

Yuri was right.

These games focused on more nuanced ideas instead of browbeating people about how racist, sexist, and homophobic they are for simply existing.

>They don’t care if you call them out on their hypocrisy, because if they had any real moral principles they wouldn’t be conservatives in the first place.

Do you support muslims, trannies or women?

You can only support one, because the other two are ideologically opposed, even if they avoid admitting it

This
But also this

Metal Gear Solid is a nice example of having a political theme but not having it feel forced and awkward. Having an anti war and anti nuke stance is something pretty much everyone can get behind on a certain level. Nobody gets hard thinking about death and complete annihilation of the human race. It's generally seen as something not desirable. Nobody says to Snake anything like "You know, Democrats are secretly run by the Jews and they just want to erase white culture and plunge the world into war while taxing the middle class to hell so they can fill their own pockets. Isn't that weird? Also trans women are women. Now don't get spotted by the guards!"

The left is always making excuses for people. Black people as a collective dont get to lash out against white people as a collective that is morally wrong and you need to understand that.

March will be interesting for sure. Some liberals are already trying to use the remake to talk about climate change.

Interesting how you're asking them to not put people into collectives, but you were the first to bring up white people and black people.

Sounds like you're putting people into a collective there, buddy

The protagonist is a white male.

>just say you're racist
why do americans pretend skin colour is the national identity and think they're in good company with european countries that have a real national identity and would enforce their borders against other "whites"

im using it as an adjective not as a noun you fucking idiot

Excepth both the cammies and anarch are shown to be equally retarded.

People put themselves into those collectives.

Who said anything about anger?

See that's the problem. Oversimplification of language.
There is a difference between the use of a political structure to establish a setting and the use of a political structure to to make (on-the-nose most often) political commentary. HL1's story could work just as well if it was a private organization using mercenaries. At no time does it reference external things not directly needed for the advancement of the game story, and thus makes no commentary beyond the most superficially trivial (which you referenced). Its story could work as well in the 1950s as it would today, in any country or political system, through the use of public or private systems, and should continue to work well into the future. It works in science fiction and fantasy models.
Political commentary on the other hand tends to age poorly, especially when it is not directly related to the story, and almost universally worsens the game. Thus it should be avoided.

Not cages, they should be immediately deported, preferably to antartica

Obama did it too, though right?

That was the old European right. Most "modern" right wingers of Europe called for a European super-state if you consider Mosley a right winger to begin with.

illegal immigrants are not immigrants they are criminals and criminals belong in cages. there goes the left making excuses for people who cant play by the rules again, the rules they mostly created.

Lmao these threads are always so predictable that they are massive bait.

Anyhow, having political elements in your media is not bad, it is what they are and how they are handled.

E.g. Young Blood and BF5, but also movies like Ghost busters and Captain Marvel are just to ride the contemporary virtue bucks and feel disingenuous. That is why people don't like it; all these themes neatly coincide with the contemporary left of center or "progressive" talking points. Instead of a nuanced and interesting way the themes are handled in a world or narrative building design.

the difference? people here are conservative, and many developers today are liberal, so when they put something liberal in their game, they don't like it. the problem is those older games were also more left wing than right, but arguably weren't so blatant about it so it flew over the zoomers heads when they played them.

I don’t need several games every year about why women are strong and I don’t need to be told why we should open our borders. I don’t need some ‘clever’ answer totally edgy metaphor about Trump and Brexit. I don’t need diatribes from fucking cosmopolitan scumbags living in California, Canada, or London. I don’t need to be lectured on workers rights while you work your people to the brink of mental break downs.

What astounds me is the fact that these fucks bitch when we don’t embrace their shitty media propaganda, despite it never been aimed at us in the first place. For example, Star Wars, Star Trek, and Doctor Who are no longer aimed at its original fanbase, the fans are rightfully privy to that, and they’re all in the dumps.

To add to all this, their games suck with predatory consumerism practices. Fuck you.

Ah, but I actually can. The greatest fundamental tenant of modern liberalism is the concept that people are fundamentally more or less the same, with major differences both within and between groups arising mainly from environmental factors. Accordingly, they believe that differences in condition between groups must arise from a disparity in external conditions, and that, in the name of equality, which they hold identically to equity, steps ought to be taken to adjust the environment under the principle that an equality of outcome indicates an equality of opportunity.

But every effort that the liberals have made towards this end for decades have utterly failed. And they failed because there are very large fundamental differences between groups.

Read Uncle Ted's manifesto if you don't understand what "the Left" refers to and why it's used in place of specific commentary on a particular political group.

Unless you're just a /pol/tard LARPing as a bottom of the bin moron, in which case congratulations you tricked me.

Without a doubt they could. They are sociopaths underneath it all, But they won't in this day and age. They even said they are scared over the trump era. No balls.

I didn't say kill them just be aware of the risk they pose

It seriously disturbs me when people act like victimized and persecuted over inane shit like this. I thought this was supposed to be nigger and woman behavior, why the fuck are so many white """men""" doing it now?

>read uncle ted
no thanks, I don't like reading

This is hilarious because dude was obviously a liberal relaxin around blacks like that

37 million deportation does not sound free
Get off /pol/, not even half the liberals support actual reparations

I love actual fantasy political shit in games, not being punched in the nose with CURRENT YEAR

Polotics are fine. Identity/sex politics are retarded.

For them it is. It's a small cost for 50% less crime

*politics

dilate, cope and have sex 40%

But the 50 cent game was in the middle east.

>having a government as a bad guy is political
Guess every RPG where you fight an evil king is political too.

Gravity Rush 2
Watchdogs 2
Red Dead Redemption 2

Communist China is an awful place that literally embodied the red scare in Fallout, all subterfuge and skullduggery.

Yes, you made another single sentence as a greentext which means you're doubling down, what of it?

liberals and left wingers are mentally ill people. but i like when they get a dose of the cold reality.

Having a fantasy king as the bad guy isn't political. Having a real life king as a bad guy is.

all politics are social you fucking clown

I'm not talking reparations, I'm talking 'bout dem programs.

Metal Gear Solid literally ends with the game giving you a speech about how your genes don’t really matter or determine who you are as a person. Try posting that on /pol/ now and see what happens

>we have politics in those to make you think about it in your way
>lol killing nazis
>lol save the planet
>lol post-apocalypse is bad
>lol government is controlling people
You are not a very bright person aren't you?

>We're just pointing out your hypocrisy lol
If that were true, "you" would've stopped after the dozen(s) of comments pointing out the false conflation of the two.
No, you're doing this to shitpost.

I have no passion or love for media anymore. It's all been hijacked and will remain shitty forever, so fuck it. I'd rather be a complete shell of a person than endure this shit anymore. I'm just waiting for China to declare war and murder us all.

In fact, It will pay for itself over time and the tax payers will save more money, Prisons won't be full, Crime will be halved (Especially gun crime) Cheap housing, etc.

It's a cherry picked example and it only represents 1 person or at most a small group of people at a single expo. Congrats. Its fucking nothing that anybody cares about. It's probably not even related to any games you've ever heard of, or would play anyway

>The second has you siding with communists because they're way better than the Nazis
Completely unheard of during the actual second world war. Truly fairytales land.

social commentary and plot about cold war is not about anything relevant today. beyond the most broad strokes it wasn't political, it was trying to tell a fucking story

that's what people want and the pack of it is why they're angry. nu wolf is not trying to a story so much as overtly convince you white conservative men - the ones around you today - are the most evil creatures on the planet

sephiroth represent exxon mobil and jenova represents BP and she also is john carpenter's the thing and this represents the bush dynasty

see, all games are politics

>Nobody gets hard thinking about death and complete annihilation of the human race

literally the GOP

And rightly so, pop culture references are fucking cancer and I'm glad people are realizing it, even if it is through on the nose political commentary

if you want a real answer its because theres a difference between a intriguing story based on politics and a hamfisted snore pandering game that lacks any real meat and is just cute sweet frosting that appeals at the surface but is rancid shit underneath.

>destroying environment is bad
>hardly qualifies as political
Tell me, which president and political party removed 83 environmental regulations in favor for corporate interests?

Which party has an overwhelming number of congressmen who do not believe man-made climate change is teal?

Which president wants to give the coal industry subsidies?

Which president has direct ties to Big Oil?

Which president claimed that climate change is a myth invented by the Chinese?

oh pay no attention to sephiroths name and all the religious symbolism that's actually an evangelion reference which is commentary on the trump and hillary race obviously

Genetic variation will always be a factor

The liberals are all about helping forgivers, taking them back home to Africa to get away from KKK America and Nazi Europe should be your priority.

I remember during GG that a lot of game journalists were shitting on white gamers.

Tldr faggot
Good post

foreigners*
GUH...

Back then it wasn't in every AAA game and it wasn't always borderline far-left propoganda.

>politics thread
>900 replies
>everytime
unironically stop politicizing my Yea Forums

there's a very clear difference between using politics to tell a story, and using a story to push a certain political agenda

But it doesn't say that, it says that while genes may set you down a life path, it is ultimately your choice, and that you can change it.
I disagree with it almost entirely, but that's beside the point

Was it that Krogan channel?

Tell 8/leftypol/ to stop running shitcord OPs then.

Whaaaaaaa? Blacks are stupid? Clearly you havent see this sir.

eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ368279

metal gear is full of politics but most of it is just driving the action-hero story. the parts that can be taken as commentary on modern society are very abstract and arent pushing some agenda.

it's all shit like "whoa dude how do you even know what's like true in the age of information" and shit about how tragic a soldiers life is

when you welcome r/gamingcirclejerk and breadtwitter with open arms because you are tired of poltards, this is bound to happen, my dude.

Don't know why I subbed to him. His Youngblood and Rage 2 videos made me realize how crazy he actually is.

Was it them or was you that took the propaganda pill?

This is low IQ shit from r/gamingciclejerk, a bunch of teenage faggots who make and post contrarian memes on gayms as long as they don't insult leftist views.
I wouldn't be surprised if they also posted on infinity though.

If you really think this is an equivalent to modern politics in games, you're brainwashed beyond repair. The modern situation would be more akin to suburban mom's trying to censor mortal Kombat and other violent games in the 90s. Or when they claimed D&D was satanic. Something, I know 90% of you left-tards were against at the time (if old enough). You stupid, hypocritical fucks.

The terrorist that talks to you at the statute of liberty (whom speaking to is entirely optional) prompts Denton to think.
In a modern game he would just scream ORANGE MAN BAD FUCK DRUMPF FUCK NAZI

>politics being internally part of the world building
VS
>politics being cheap attempts at inserting real life politics where it doesn't fit anything or makes the world building bad
Also
>implying we're neutral
If a game is right wing propaganda, I am buying it collectors edition and all dlc unless it's objective irredeemably shit. I never claimed to be a neutral party. I hope the communist atheist propagandists get culturally enriched

>I wouldn't call it politics, rather conspiracies
lmao go back

Progressives are gay lol

Jesus fuckign christ.
I fucking hate this whole "politics in video games" debate because it's just two different sides being two different extremes instead of one trying to correct the statement of the other.
Both are retarded but for different reasons.
Some guy doesn't know what politics are or didn't know how to communicate his statement, so the other guy acts as an obnoxious faggot by going "hurrr then what about MGS" and acts like he won, because he didn't even bother to go "what do you mean" or see through his view like someone who's not a selfish, egocentric faggot.
It's the same shit with "should video game stories be 100% forced or not exist at all" and "should sequels be repetitive and samey or completely different and out of place in a franchise".
Or the same thing with arguing about video games being art.
Someone says something dumb and the counter arguement is just "what you said but the exact opposite so you know i disagree with you and you're wrong i win" rather than actually adding up shit.
And all of these arguements always sound surface as fuck, you can't even tell them apart from made up shit coming out of someone's made up boogeyman strawman made to parody a certain opinion.
EXTREME COUNTER ARGUEMENTS ARE SHIT, YOU FUCKING RETARDS.
ALL OF YOU EAT SHIT AND HERE'S SOME APE ESCAPE SHOTA.

Below clearly proves it is
If you are that emotionally invested in an ideology you will actiavlly seek validation or disapproval in content

I'm 100% ok with politics in games because the left are starting to lose, let their games keep losing money.
I want the next 50 years to be the most rightwing shit you have ever seen in gaming history
Bring it on.

The absurdity of his videos make me "wtf I'm watching", he does exactly what his lot accuse game journalists of doing, pretending to review videogames, but talking very little about them, and instead shilling his personal politics.

oh my lord if you played deus ex you played it with a blindfold and the sound off

I doubt the right would even bother pushing politics as hard as the left

>rightwing vidya
>good
If it's anything like rightwing literature, then it's going to be even more brainless and dumbed down than current games
