The Video Game Awards for 2023 (like every year) was a big nothingburger. Trailers highlighting how bad gaming has gotten worse not only with woke shit, but also the lack of gameplay in the majority of Western developed games and their trailers. It’s fucking awful.
Geoff Keighley desperately wants to become a Hollywood big shot and it’s really pathetic… But the thing is he is merely a reflection of the game industry at large and the talentless hacks who have taken over and want to make movies instead of games. Games media and Game Devs are complaining about the lack of focus on devs, and I just don’t give two shits about the plight of game devs.
They created this monster by being embarrassed of their own profession and transforming the industry into a complete and utter joke. They were all spineless cowards who allowed the woke plague to come in and ruin the industry at best, and at worst were completely complicit in the industry-wide brain drain and woke transformation of video games.
When I hear about studio layoffs, I just shrug because nothing of value was lost. When I hear about entire studios shutting down (in the West), I feel nothing, if not perhaps a satisfaction that these studios self-destructed.
I don’t care about these game devs, because I know they hate my guts and don’t actually care about video games.
The same mindset applies to the vast majority of indie games that are either made by dipshits who couldn’t make it in Hollywood and just see gaming as an alternative outlet to make movies, or woke leftists who don’t have a single creative bone in their body. The fun indie games are buried in a sea of lifeless/woke copycats and walking simulators.
This clown world has made me completely unsympathetic to the plight of most workers overall. Good job elites, your diversity and inclusion plan of division worked. I really don’t care about any of these people.
This is all very much a given and I agree with you, but what pisses me off is when the normies and right wingers both try to act like I should be sympathetic to their plight when these people really are the scum of the earth and so many of them abuse their positions to the point of blatant criminality not even just regular corruption.
No, these people should face destruction for what they've done. I'm convinced that now we know what we know about these types it's clear that the consolidation of these ridiculous power houses in the industry like EA and the deliberate destruction of any potential rivals was precisely so that they could ultimately start attempting to brainwash the young through video games by making everything woke.
I will gladly see the whole industry burn to the ground for that especially given how much games matter to me with my own childhood.
Who on the right says you should be sympathetic to the plight of whom, exactly?
I've had people bickering with me on this site about it especially when it comes to TERFs and these people are all connected. You do sort of see that attitude among more mainstream figures too as well and I'm just going no to all of that. I ended up blocking ArchTheRespawn over the TERF thing because he was sperging out at me trying to make it out I supported trannies because I was against TERFs as if you couldn't be against both groups and yes the Tranny vs TERF civil war is all connected to the games industry as well. There's definitely an element of right wingers trying to get people on the left on side through appealing to female victimhood.
Oh those guys. See, I was curious because as far as I'm concerned, right wing politics is defined heavily by not really giving a shit about the "plight" of pretty much anybody.
Fair enough and I'm a voluntaryist, so I just believe you can do it through private charity or not stealing peoples' money through taxes. It's like with Trump though, I do think overall on the right there's this weird obsession a lot of them have with trying to make the left like them and they never will or they don't seem to understand the kind of very real psychopaths we're dealing with.
I mean these are people who think it's okay to harass actual kids and stalk people to their addresses for fuck's sake which is why I'm in a no quarter situation with them these days.
Man, I hate these buggers. These are the people telling us we should value women's sports. It's like, what?! Who's ever valued women's sports?
I can dislike trannies and the effect their pushing has had on society, while also saying women's sports and its pushers are cringe, and that we shouldn't embrace feminism to own the libs. Normie conservatives are nearly as cringe as leftists.
