I know based or neutral indie devs exist, but in my experience most indie devs are anywhere from left-of-center to ultra-woke. I’ve seen some people saying indie games are the escape from woke triple A shit, and while they may be the escape from the “shit” part, I think that claim is at least 50% cope.
Edit: in fact, for anything that’s sort of cyberpunk or predicts a future corporate hellscape, I automatically assume that the dev is very far left. Somehow, the left has convinced a LOT of people that they’re the anti-corporate, anti-government corporate fusion, anti-overreach party when they’re the ones barreling toward it the fastest.
Most legit indie devs are still majority white male because they aren’t large enough to attract the demands or quotas of the woke mafia. So indie dev output still has a chance to escape the quality/productivity quagmire that is “diversity”. This, however, does not preclude the indie devs themselves from being woke retards. In effect, their own ethnic homogeneity and small size insulate them from the natural consequences of their own preferred ideology.
Agreed, I feel like it's worth pointing out though, most of these people who support this crap seem to be low level uninformed midwits. They have no idea of the types of people they're really supporting, they think they're just virtue signalling about the gays which is why they get confused and angry when they're ever confronted on it by people in public. They don't see all the shit we do with the tranny backstabbing and creepy grooming of teenagers on discord servers.
They're not necessarily what I'd call 'true believers' and think supporting the LGBT ideology isn't a big deal and think it's just right wing bigots that would ever disagree with them. I keep repeating this but right wingers really need to get a grip on the mentality they're dealing with when it comes to the left and normies. They ban and stop discussion of anyone who brings up the shit the left gets up to which is why their bubbles never get pierced so unfortunately the only way to make these people stop is to bankrupt them through economic warfare.
On the bright side, their writing is going to be so shit it will be easy for any true non-woke or anti-woke dev to yet again put their own spin on a story based RPG etc. I'm almost thinking I could do it since it's really the story you need to put the most effort into. I wouldn't mind setting up a cyberpunk RPG and live out the fantasy that I should've gotten in Cyberpunk 2077 where I get to side with the corpos as an agent and live it up in night clubs and penthouses lol.
Yeah, before that it was just generic "abloo bloo I must fight my depression (literally)" Tumblr shit. I'm not sure if the bait and switch was planned from the beginning of if one of the devs trooned out and had to make everything about him, but either way it's very disappointing and I wish I could un-give them my money.
Best you can do is let people know when a game has a tranny agenda. If you can convince even one person not to buy it, you've done your job.
I think its most of the ones you hear about are Left. Because they wouldn't gain any traction or popularity without some support of the industry and the industry only accepts other Leftists. Including paying for shills to meme a game into existence (like Dave the Diver currently is doing).
But games like Domina existed for years completely under the radar until he was in the process of getting cancelled.
Is Dave the Diver paying streamers or commenters? I’ve seen a lot of hype around it, but I will say that it also comes across as competently made, and impressively quick to exit early access with a full product.
I haven’t looked too close, though. If there’s suspicious stuff hiding around that game I’d be curious to hear it, because it’s currently on my “check this game out” list.
I don't know. But everywhere I go its got oddly neutral to positive threads cropping up a half dozen at a time. They never say anything really of substance, always post the same marketing images with the title and guy on it, and just feel very fake.
This doesn't mean the game is bad on its own, as plenty good games have terrible marketers and shills. But its notable enough to be almost clearly "bought and paid for" discussions hyping it up instead of organic word of mouth.
Yeah, I don't really go on gaming forums (aside from the one here, which is tiny), but I've definitely seen a couple streamers I watch semi-regularly saying lots of good things about it. Based on what I know of them, I wouldn't be surprised if there's woke stuff in there they just aren't bothered by or even like, but they usually have pretty solid tastes about actual gameplay.
Regardless of its woke content or lack thereof, I don't want to make the industry think bots and shill spamming work. So I'll wait until a long period from now to take a look at it.
It depends on the dev. But if they are involved in the igda chances are they are woke. ShortFatOtaku has some good videos covering the igda and indie scene corruption. He definitely has bad takes of his own in his other vids but those videos are solid.
except when there not... really depends on who gets to them first it seems. even then are they just playing lipservice to the idea. thats the shitty part we will never know till it blows up.
Only a small subset of people will tolerate talking to terminally online, mentally ill retards in the first place. An even smaller subset will get trooned out by them wormtongueing about "programming socks".
I don't know if I'd say transhumanism is "popular" among the autistic nerd population, but it's probably more popular than it is among the population at large. And trannies can definitely be seen as a step along that path.
In my early 20s I found transhumanism very appealing and treated my humanity almost as a defect to be overcome, and it wasn't until I became a bit older that I realized my humanity was simply a part of who I was and that it was foolish to treat such a significant aspect of myself as a "defect".
I'm sure there are people who never reach that second stage.
I hear it’s great if you aren’t turned off by an intentionally horrible UI. It’s not really a claim I can investigate, because it turns out I am turned off by an intentionally horrible UI. Weird.

Most notably Celeste, amazing game and music, fucking cringe story.
If I recall, that ending where you see the hormone pill bottles wasn't added until after the game's release, when most had already bought it.

A lot of solo and small devs are autistic, and autistics are extremely vulnerable to transing.

Everyone is vulnerable to emotional manipulation.

You should avoid purchasing cruelty squad because it is a dumpster tier meme game, regardless of your feelings about the developer.
This
I hear it’s great if you aren’t turned off by an intentionally horrible UI. It’s not really a claim I can investigate, because it turns out I am turned off by an intentionally horrible UI. Weird.
I have also heard this and I don't believe it for a second. It's a self replicating prank. The game equivalent of goatse.cx
I thought it was pretty obvious tbh.
The game is still fun though and is unintentionally based because imho it's our institutions and their values taken to their logical conclusions.
I don't have discord but this is a pretty good strategy to avoid funding your enemies if you don't want to wade through twitter accounts.
