s clash as Neil Cuckmann's latest game, spaceshit with bald black woman lead, is announced
3 main points of contention are:
- Marvel/millennial writing
I really didn't get that impression. "Marvel writing" is quickly becoming a meaningless term.
one liners, jokes, and sarcasm every other line of dialogue is what people mean by marvel writing
- Excessive amount of product placement, which kills the game for no fun chuds and makes it better and more immersive to soylennials. Also media literacy or something
Kids, they did that because the style is 80S RETRO FUTURISM.
this whole subreddit is wooshing so hard on the aesthetic of the game
It's creating a more relatable alternate reality that captures a vibe that we can sort of intuitively know and feel based on our real experiences with known brands
It kinda gives you the tone of the character imo. Like if Porsche is making space ships in this alternate timeline, it sort of informs us about the character a bit. It's not a junker rebel ship- it's badass, high-performance, and perhaps ostentatious and egotistical even.Why were 3 massive brands planted so obviously in the trailer? Porsche, Adidas, Sony?
Obvious 90s inspired retro futurism aesthetic. How are people not seeing this??
G*mers have some of the worst media literacy of anyone on the internet, are you really surprised?
- That last comment brings us to most discussed part of the trailer - is having a tattooed, bald Black woman protagonist (and a character with an eye patch) woke Sweet Baby globohomo propaganda or are they just strong, diverse and inclusive characters that enrich the players' experience?
We wanted masculine character lead again. Naughty Dog gave us their best: A bald lesbian
I mean the main character looks expectedly like a Neil Druckmann design.
Female, Asian, black, bald! The perfect combination ❤️ (can't tell if this is a
or a
lmao)
I immediately said "Naughty Dog" once I saw the bald and tattooed female protagonist
Also, a truke at the end

The next one will be called "oppressional drive." If you do too much, work hard, try to improve things, etc, it's because you want to marginalize PoC, women, and queerfolk.
It's not fair, as they can't do as much as you because of oppression.
(and emotional labour probably)

That's been a big one for years, especially in gender studies.
What's interesting is that "emotional labor" was originally a field of organizational psychology. It describes the requirement to change one's personality to conform to customer and business expectations, and its effect on the person doing so.
Since then, it's been co-opted by foid activists to complain about the oppression and trauma of having to not be a huge fricking b-word to your husband.

Yeah I meant they would use emotional labour as a reason for the "oppressional drive" thingie I made up.

Interesting. I could see it. That's always been bubbling under the surface at a lot of workplaces as the useless take advantage of the useful without a backbone.
