if this game lets me be the foreign menace that rednecks fear it will be GOTY of course they're going to remove all pretenses of Liberal/Conservative partisanship and make the bad guys whacko cultists, but I'll probably play the game and ignore that, and just fantasize about killing right-wingers

I heard he's going to be in a wheelchair and have dwarfism. Also he's going to drop the guns a lot because he has sensitive skin and those barrels can get pretty hot.

Instead of Radio Towers you'll be taking over Backwoods Churches, and instead of infiltrating Outposts you'll be infiltrating either Doomsday Bunkers. Either that or Hunting/Gun Clubs.

That's a part of Pagan Min's incredibly successful conservation efforts. Of course, the son of Mohan Ghale would use that as a pretext for rampant poaching so he can have a new messenger bag.

Your tranq crossbow gets less effective as the game goes on, as the sedative is opioid-based and your enemies will become increasingly degenerate and resistant to its effects

MeatwadIsGod posted:Lol if you play this instead of waiting for Red Dead Redemption 2 in 2019. The only good Ubisoft games have Rayman in them. Rainbow Six Siege is pretty good because its initial sales projections tanked horribly so they decided to spend as little money as possible and continue having one smaller team craft it toward a very specific niche instead of throwing tons of money and development teams towards sequels aimed at a general audience a'la CoD/BF

I'm pretty sure Bioshock Infinite did take a stance. I had to look up the quote that was at the center of the kerfuffle when the game first came out. When the oppressed minorities fought back and started killing people Booker and Elizabeth stop Fitzroy (leader of the resistance) from killing a white child. After Elizabeth says, "In the end the only difference between Fitzroy and Comstock is how you spell their name." So yeah, the game definitely had an opinion on how you were supposed to feel about it. Both sides were portrayed as bad. At least through the eyes of the protagonists. Take it however you want.

I'm pretty sure the reason the Bioshock Infinite devs did that (and the reason FC5 will be doing that) is because it angered lots of people enough that they still reflexively namedrop Bioshock Infinite like they did in this thread, to the point where this 'controversy' is the only reason I've seen people bring Bioshock: Infinite up over the last few years. Ask yourself: If they hadn't done that would anyone actually remember or discuss Bioshock Infinite at all, ever? No.

nigga crab pollock posted:death of the author is ultimately a lame postmodernist copout that lets ideologically minded jerkoffs separate their work from the context of the reality it was authored in and makes it vastly easier to sniff your own farts. it's not like its a bad concept, authorial intent is't always what a work ends up depicting, but its bred this acceptable attitude of ignorant agnosticism of the artist which usually ends up just being abused in fallacious arguments like this one where people jump up and say the dissonance between the story and gameplay is the whole point of the game when in actuality its just an artefact of the game trying to be six things at once and developed by a studio with a high turnover rate on a max time crunch attempting to re-bake the half cooked game concept that got dumpstered Ok cool but did you see my joke about gamers sending death threats because that's why I made the post because caring about video games is stupid

Anyone who makes an argument that explicitly relies on death of the author, that is you must deliberately ignore known authorial/creative intent in order to make your case, you're a full of poo poo retard that's definitely a methane huffer. I'm glad I'm not alone in feeling this way.

I think people who actually care about videogame story motifs are pathetic.
