Naughty Dog’s new IP is a retro sci-fi space game starring a butch, shaved-headed black lesbian girl boss.
The Witcher 4 stars a female lead, an uglified middle-aged Ciri who is also a sassy girl boss.
The new co-op game from Hazelight, (developer of It Takes Two) stars a pair of insufferable millennial female writers.
Outside of what was shown last night, we have the sequel to Ghost of Tsushima with another new girl boss protagonist.
Grand Theft Auto 6? Another new female protagonist.
Is there a literal prohibition on white male leads in western game dev?
Virtually every western advertisement put sassy girl bosses - both real and virtual - front and center. You’d think the majority of competitive online players are female, the way the industry panders to the demo.
Meanwhile, Eastern game devs are cranking out the only media with masculine males and feminine females. The Last Berzerker and Crimson Desert feature white male leads even, a clear indicator that Asian devs are targeting what they correctly perceive to be a gap in the western market.
And the countless female characters in Eastern games? Just as present and powerful, but they aren’t insufferable cunts or masculine abominations. No, eastern female characters are unapologetically attractive and feminine.
The awards also focused on women nonstop. Women in the crowd. Women on stage with the award winners. Female presenters. Meanwhile, almost every winner was a white or Asian dude. Because they are still the ones who put in the hard work to make the fucking games.
Watching the live chats was great, though. The moment you saw purple, people were calling woke. And the best part is knowing that all of the defenders and shills are definitely seething leftists who are terrified of the current cultural realignment.
Witcher 4 and/or GTA6 need to flop. If they make as much as their predecessors, the industry will absolutely take it as a mandate to double down.
So everybody here needs to resist the FOMO for once and don't buy these games.
Zero chance gta6 flops. Witcher might take a hit from the disaster of cyberpunk, but i can still see it selling. Both titles have way too much brand hype to ever flop
Sadly, you're exactly right. It'll probably go down like it did last time.
People on PC are going to watch GTA:VI videos of how it really is from console users.
Then they'll forget for a year or so until it's out on PC and buy it because it's finally out on their machine of choice.
Same as GTA:V
And you just know tons of tards will pre-order. As if they might somehow run out of downloads if they wait too long to buy it.
They HAVE to pre-order it! It's the only way they'll get that unique outfit for the protagonist that is only available for a limited time! Can you even IMAGINE being able to live without it?
