I know I sound like an absolute classic hipster right now who's bitching about their favourite band going mainstream and acting like it's ruined but I'm really feeling empathetic towards those guys right now. I bring up Ukraine because it was funny how everyone with access to an internet connection suddenly had an opinion on it even though they obviously couldn't point to it on a map much like with Israel-Palestine.
It was this sort of thing that got me pretty red pilled on the commentating crowd because even people who should have known better to shut their mouths and at least do some studying first had to pump out their videos to meet the demands of the stupid keyword algorithms.
Same thing is happening with Fallout now and all of a sudden the fucking hair twirlers are pretending they love Fallout and videos are going to be pumped out left and right talking about how amazing the Fallout games are just because it hit the trending pages. This wouldn't be such a bad thing by itself because it would fade off eventually but now you've got these fuckers who are going to sit there trying to flex to everyone who the biggest Fallout fan is.
You know it's going to happen with Warhammer and the shills will be out in force next right? We've all seen it coming but I feel like the Warhammer bullshit is going to sting particularly hard. These people don't fucking have hobbies so they've got to go and ruin everyone else's and that goes for the people who aren't leftists as well.
Ohhhh fuck no, I don't want to see all the cosplaying noooo it just entered into my head what they're going to do for Halloween :(
Same, I'm way more into Fallout but I appreciated Warhammer so I can understand how pissed off the Warhammer fans must feel.
It's not the wokeness I'm going to be bothered by it's the inevitable swarm of attention seeking thots who are going to skankify everything and they'll probably even do it to space marine armour and it will actually be offensive to anybody who gives a shit about their hobbies and mediums.
I apologise in advance for planting this image in your head. Imagine if you will you walk past a bunch of thots one night at Halloween and they're all wearing blood raven or black templar space marine suits but because they're thots it's some pre-made shit they bought off Amazon ( Who will inevitably cash in on the trend they've created ) and they're showing as much thigh and cleavage as possible but won't even know anything about the chapters or give a shit about the lore they're butchering with their antics.
These are the same bitches who called D&D and Warhammer fans nerds and refused to talk with them because they're not cool enough as the stereotype goes now they're committing fucking sacrilege against nerd hobbies. I write now because with how fast people are hopping onto the Fallout trend it's definitely coming.
Aside from the pre-made Amazon trash, I see nothing wrong with that. What can I say, as far as thot looks go, that sounds good. They've done much worse. Grimdarkthot is glorious comparatively. Also I'm drunk.
That said, I certainly recognize the danger of anything getting mainstream appeal. The thots are all well and good at first...until they start thinking they get to have opinions and shit. It's all downhill from that point.
That's the thing, it's a slippery slope, which is why they need to be gatekept hard.
