Apparently according to this video it was approved by a vote of 98%, will really only effect AAA studios and means all their stuff gets delayed, at least if it requires voice actors.
Maybe AAA will focus on patches then for their buggy games since they can't make overpriced DLCs.
I'm still hoping the writer's deal falls through, I want it ALL to burn down, get replaced by AI and these guys have to learn to mine since we still need coal not overhyped drama queens. Golden time for indies and foreign non-American dependent studios though.
To be fair, I understand his frustration, I've basically found maybe two games that could be called worth it so far from the indie sphere and really No Man's Sky I'm not that into even though I appreciate what the devs have done.
Perhaps because my taste is 'niche' these days by the normie standards, but I'm not exactly swimming in alternatives and he's right there really is a sea of platformers you have to swim through to find any good shit. Partly because woke platformers especially on modern engines are very easy to put together compared to other genres.
Maybe I just lucked out. I have had no shortage of games in the last few years, many of which are (like I said) superior quality to anything AAA and almost all of them without even the inkling Woke to them.
It is the main reason I scoff whenever I hear people saying that gaming is in some sort of gutter right now.
