Sweet Baby Inc. Defender Who Says "Every Lever" Must Be Pulled To Push LGBTQ+ Agenda Announces She's Joined CD Projekt Red
Mary Kenney, the former Associate Narrative Director at Insomniac Games who was working on Marvel's Wolverine, announced that she's joined CD Projekt Red.
At least she probably can't reach back through time and take my Witcher 1 through 3 playthrough memories away from me.
ib4 remasters of a Witcher 3 premium edition trilogy get announced and you get to buy the games with uglified female models and censored sex scenes! Oh and don't worry about the old games, they'll be scrubbed from your library because we don't own anything anymore.
Blizzard ''updated'' Starcraft for free. To sell you the ''remastered'' version advertized in it.
The ''update'' makes the game worse. I thought my memory was playing me tricks, but no, they changed the names of units in the French text version, but not the dialogues obviously.
It also runs worse than the untampered version.
Witcher 3 has a lot of early woke stuff like people being mean to elves and dwarves for no reason then getting beat up. It has muh female Witcher female empowerment.
The very first time you meet Zoltan Chivay in Witcher 1, he's being hassled by anti-dwarf humans. You can actually have stories about fantasy racists and women with magic powers that aren't DEI garbage.
I’m exhausted with both of those tropes. I don’t even care when or where the media comes from anymore. I’m done with girl bosses and racism allegories. I won’t play games or watch movies with either.
If anything it'd be way more woke to have all the fantasy races living together in complete harmony.
Fantasy racism can work and be a good story element, but when it's hamfisted "they look different" then it's dumb and shallow.
Give me a story about a band of halflings that stroll into town and start annoying people with the overpowering smell of their spiced sauce dishes and open air defecation. Put them in a camp where they are forced to learn how to conform. Have a mongrel child that is disliked by his own single mom.
I only watched the TV show, but the elves are hateable because they are nasty little fuckers who are quite racist themselves.
There IS reason for the racism in The Witcher, but getting a greater understanding of the context behind it requires either some deep-diving into the lore and in-game literature, playing the previous games, and/or reading the books. In short, racial tensions always existed between elves and humans that resulted in a lot of bloody battles in the past, with the results being the former losing an entire generation of fertile youths (elves live longer than humans, but have a considerably shorter fertility window) that left their population in sharp decline and made way for the fall of their civilization. Those hostilities have still left marks on both people, and many elves refuse to integrate with their human conquerers but also lack the basic agricultural skills needed to form their own communes, so they act as thieves and brigands, which in turn drives humans to be more hostile to them in turn.
As for Dwarves, well, many of the biggest banks in the Northern Kingdoms are owned and run by them, Vivaldi being the most notable. Take that for what it's worth.
Furthermore, five years before the first game began, when Nilfgaard launched a second invasion on the north, it commissioned and made high promises to disenfranchised nonhumans to spur them into assisting the empire, leading to the formation of the Scoia'tael which engaged in guerilla warfare all across the North. And even after the war ended and Nilfgaard left them high and dry, the Scoia'tael is still active and still engaging in banditry and other mischief (which we openly see in the first two Witcher games), which is doing nothing for race relations, and in turn makes humans suspicious of their nonhuman neighbors. Said suspicion is also not always unwarranted because a lot of said neighbors are in fact Scoia'tael sleeper agents. And by the time Witcher 3 begins, Nilfgaard is launching a third invasion, which is doing much to drive up more racial paranoia; they're not employing the Scoia'tael anymore, but the common (and ignorant) man doesn't know that, and considering the Scoia'tael recently partook in a number of actions that further weakened the north, like assist an assassin in killing King Foltest, and taking advantage of the unrest in Aedirn to form a new independent nation in it, well...
This is the other side of the problem, where anti woke become as retarded as the woke and think everything with unconventional element is woke. What next, you're going to say the Roman Empire was woke because they partaked in faggotry?
Yea hearing they are removing the Sex cards for that bullshit "Modern Audience" trot. It's not fucking worth it.
