They should have had Franklin spend his first 5 minutes on screen giving a Bill Cosby style talk about how disappointed he is in black people, then years from now we could still be hearing about how so and so isn't racist because he loved playing Franklin in GTA V since he was one of the good ones

I don't quite understand. Are people lying and saying the FOV mod isn't that, but something else? Cause if that's the case then all of these players deserve to be banned.

There was a lot of racist backlash when it was revealed that you will be playing as three different characters and one of them was black. Basically another example of how gamer culture is god awful.

They probably want to change the PC, so as not to be confused with the dreaded political correctness, the endboss of anti-game.

Of all forms of the mass media, the video games industry still remains one of the least corrupted up till now by the cultural Marxism that maintains such a stranglehold over the Western World. Unfortunately the left is beginning to make inroads into the industry, to inject its bias to corrupt and conform it to its insidious anti-White agenda like it's done so many times beforehand. The author insists that he isn't pleading for political correctness, but he's in fact doing exactly that.

I knew that it wouldn't be very long before some Jew or one of their useful idiots would initiate whining about the term "Master Race" that PC owners sometimes use to describe the superior resolution, framerate and graphics that PC games often feature over their console counterparts thanks to the far more advanced specs of gaming PCs compared to the current-gen consoles.

The funny thing is, there wasn't exactly any loving backlash when San Andreas had only one protagonist who was black and almost the entire supporting cast was also black. Gamers have actively regressed as a subculture.

What are you talking about? There was an assload of backlash about it, that's why there are so many white CJ mods. You probably didn't hear about it because it was drowned out by all the :tviv: over SA being the greatest game ever.

That's just as silly as saying that there are more garbage games today than in the past. Gamers have always and will always be poo poo.

Yeah people were absolutely racist as gently caress about GTA:SA

The mods were the extension of a bunch of people talking about how they "couldn't relate" to a black protagonist, while apparently having no problems relating to a career criminal or in the case of other videogames assassins, elves, Martians, cyborgs, and wizards

They lost the spike of old players that returned for the expansion, everybody knew they weren't going to stick around. I wouldn't say WoW is legitimately on the decline until they have another failure of an expansion like Cataclysm.

Oh this is close. No dailies, Garrison made it Farmville, and Raid Tears are poo poo. Garrison made it so no one is playing in the world, just in their little bubble. No new significant content since release as well.
