GOW Ragnarok could very well be the wokest most anti-capitalist game ever made but I'll never know because I'll never play it because GOW 2018 sucked poo poo

my gamer sin is that i liked those games but i am a psycho who plays games on the hardest difficulty possible which i think is where those games shine. it's probably boring as poo poo on regular degular mode

Was TLOU2 bad? Always hesitant to get into games that have critics weeping and applauding
tlou2 was whatever but the stuff it got praise for was infuriating. heres a lesbian couple who get one scene onscreen together and its mostly about one of their dads. heres a trans character who the bad guys really want to make pregnant. this is the pinnacle of representation

Before that they went all in on how Avatar the Last Airbender is literally evil because Mike and Bryan are white guys and I felt validated in a petty way when they pissed of the entire animation thread with the AI art thing.

Yup!! I made it through the first game because the bland story was just compelling enough and the performances were very good. Sequel was too miserable for the perfomances to hold it up so I gave ip like halfway through. Plus

TLOU desperately wants to be taken serious but are populated by cartoonish enemy mobs with less depth than most orcs.

TLOU2 then tried to humanize the orcs, but can only think of doing this by making another eviler faction

honestly DE ruled because no matter what options you picked, Harry was still just Harry, A Really Dumb Fuckin' Idiot and so are most of the people around him. Except Kim.
Probably my favorite bit was if you had Harry think on the homosexual underground, when he's done he says to kim 'I think I'm gay', and Kim just replies 'No, you're not'.

more games really need to get back to 'the character is their own distinct person separate from the player' and do things with that again

The Barbie movie has a very silly joke making fun of Zack Snyder fans (I haven't watched it but from what I understand a barbie who got hypnotized by a bunch of kens upon being woken up said "I was so invested in ensuring the Snyder cut is released!") and the cd Snyderdome had been very normal about it

re: that quote they are SO close to linking toxic fandom with toxic masculinity but bounce off it both times because Snyder fans can't be sexist in fact they actually know women better than anyone else :rolleyes:

I lost all respect I had for TLOU2 when they kept trying to make you feel bad for killing Nameless Raider #3 with the dialogue stuff from other enemies and then dying and reloading and it being different names for the guy I just killed. Made it feel so phony

it's because he has a secret crush on you because he thinks you're your avatar irl. He doesn't know how to express himself healthily.
