(Idk how its fun to interrupt the gameplay to play deaf girl simulator or an unskippable gay s*x scene but ok)
(He who does not work should not eat)
(They were denied basic rights like free changes oh wait)

whats strange about this comic is it cant even defend the themes as making the games better. If anything if you just want to play fun slop isnt mandatory gay s*x storylines, getting lectured whenever you try to make your own choices that arent kosher and being forced to play as a deaf girl actively stiffle how fun the combat is? The new spider-man had you able to play as a white and black one and two women and venom and in order to do that stripped away all the moves and depth the last game had to program in five different characters. Even from an apolitical perspective, we'd had this problem since sonic adventure: more characters = worse, rushed game

All game stories suck 100% of the time anyway
I just skip them now unless they force it on you like Kingdom Deliverance (which has a cool story) or it's quick with it. Otherwise I'm skipping cutscenes

Environmental storytelling > words words words storytelling
With games I barely remember the plot after I'm done with them. What usually sticks in my mind are the locations you explore or events that happen naturally during gameplay, like when you have a clutch boss fight or clear a dungeon while half your party is dead. Anything you might tell to someone as an anecdote. Game designers have been getting too uppity with the whole "games are hecking art " so they think every game needs some boring butt plot that keeps taking you out of the game.

I was playing Sonic X Shadow Generations and they thought I cared about the story of sonics friends getting sucked into some otherworld instead of speed running

They get ya by making the cutscenes instead be "playable" sections where you move the stick forward while getting lectured on white privilege (this was actually in Alan Wake II) so you cant skip it

The problem is none of these games are good. I think it's no coincidence that soulless sequels and live service MTX garbage also always has this woke shit in it. Almost like its the same design by committee partner that needs to GAAS BS.

The whole trend in gaming is to make every AAA game look exactly like the other AAA games.
That's why I play indies, I hate AAA.

Yea like if you make something for g*mers, literal slop enjoyers, theyll be fine with bad writing, mtx, not getting to play the game for most of its two hour runtime, it playing like a generic TPS and it having no actual artstyle so long as it still plays like the first game. They make fun of Madden and CoD but almost every video is like this, where the boiling frog is used to make the same shit just worse and g*mers will defend it because they have an emotional reflex to consume

"But g*mers are f*cked in the head."
Yeah, and being gay is bad too but we don't force people to suck peepee in order to buy the game, right? There is a point of being so gay that you're too gay.

20 years of leftists ruining my hobby, i can't even boot a game without seeing their nasty politics inside
2 years of slight backlash to their bullshit, and this happens
We aren't even doxxing the devs and trying to get them fired or banned from banks, we're just saying 'hey this game woke, don't play it guys if you don't want to' and they're fuming lol
