I don't buy that whole "conservative dickheads" theory. 76 showed the world was all green and happy yet 20 years in, then the residents started launching nukes at each other for the luls. That's what ended the world. War with China is clearly a vault tec conspiracy

Oh wow I can't believe a Bethesda Fallout completely missed the point the original games are trying to make.

SniperWoreConverse posted:ok, skyrim might seem "trad" if you just look at it for exactly 1 second and don't think about anything. It could very vaguely seem like some sort of idealized alternate reality past sort of thing. It's idk, not really pushing much of an ideology. You can decide to do whatever, up to a certain point, it isn't anything super substantial, it really isn't that much its games where you can kill things. thats it. that is how much anyone who describes themselves as a 'conservative gamer' is thinking about it.

I mean it's not like conservative people are known for internalizing the messaging and subtext. wh40k meme here Most conservative types like Bethesda games because you can mod yourself to be a fascist super soldier and subjugate [minority]. The rest I chalk up to semi-dangerous dorks who think they're the "good guy with the gun." Wasabi the J fucked around with this message at 08:41 on Sep 12, 2023 |

I cant believe in 2023 people are still trying to understand or rationalize anything that comes from conservatives. You dont stop for even a second to try and make sense of it, because there is none, thats the whole point. Dont grant any of it any credence at all, ever.

Zelda is the weird one to me. I don't really catch any relevant political messaging from a right or left wing perspective from Ocarina of Time without some pretty generous interpretation. Unless Ganondorf is supposed to be antifa or something? I think some of these are just really popular and well-liked games so they wanted to claim them to make conservatism cool by association.

Action-Bastard posted:No, I need my rear end in a top hat to smell like Autumn. So while other people have mentioned more obvious ones, the one that stumps me the most here is Silent Hill 3 and makes me think the whole list at that point is either fake or AI generated or something. That and Killzone 2. Really weird picks from series.

Y'all are thinking way too hard about this. They asked their conservative audience what games are conservative, and they thought "well, I like this game, and I'm conservative, so it must be conservativecore".

It’s the same thought process these people use to claim they aren’t racist despite doing and saying racist poo poo all the time: “racists are bad but I’m good therefore I can’t be a racist”

Possibly a spider. Good news: spiders are our friends and allies against the insect scourge. Bad news: they don't appreciate random appendages inserted into their homes.

It led down to a cellar that the owner had told us to not try to enter. That cellar was ALL black widow spiders and their nests or egg sacs or whatever. It's hard to tell but the walls were crawling with them.

Conservatives will co-opt and corrupt anything, if it means they gain something from it. They don't care about being blatant hypocrites, and dunking on them for it is a gigantic waste of time. Despite this, liberals love to pat themselves on the back and huff their own farts chuckling at how ~foolish~ those conservatives are being, teehee. Also, Wasabi the J posted:I mean it's not like conservative people are known for internalizing the messaging and subtext. 40k used to be a mocking parody, but has been Flanderized to the point where the newer generation of writers are basically playing it (the imperium) straight.
