Dustborn seems like a very clever shitpost. Masquerade as a woke, inclusive game, but is secretly bad on purpose to mock them.

There's no way they could think being "triggered" and "cancel" as special moves isn't shitpost material.

That's hilarious. Pretty much every single big boy, chunky etc. type of characters in video games are designed to take more hits than the smaller ones.

I guess this Daw fella is one of those "sensitive crybaby fat kids" though lol

I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was made as a grift. Stuff like this will catch people hating on it for being junk. While the crazies will say “Nuh-uh! This is amazing. You’re just saying it because you’re homophobic, transphobic, and a racist. You white-cis piece of shit!”, all the while they know it sucks, and proceed to drop cash on it to support it without actually playing it. A simple easy grift.

I dunno I think they kinda just thought that's what people wanted based on bad assumptions. They were wrong and ended up spending a lot of money on something nobody wanted.

May be, but the dude that made it has cult following because his past games.

So I imagine people will call the bluff if it was out of character for his writing style.

I think the old Norwegian man really thought that the wokies were the New Punk and not a lame geeky subculture from San Francisco game development.

Quote:Lady Dimitrescu

I mean it's just a few steps ahead of the Republican party. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Not shrugging off the action itself, it's obviously anger inducing, just want to remind Americans that their counterpart isn't too far behind doing this when it comes to women and women's autonomy. It's merely a glance into the future if the patriarchy is continued to allow to thrive.

Tyrant, If you don't want the patriarchy to thrive, you can start by not telling women what to do since you're a man.

Actually I was going to edit my post pointing that out. Apparently it didn’t go through. But yes, Norwegians know they are worshipped by the anti-American Americans, and it’s an easy grift for them to appeal to those types in an age where it’s easier for a European company to get their games into the US market. But this was a miscalculation thinking people still want narrative games like Life Is Strange, even if it’s a CW, or NCIS grade level written game that appeal to the lowest common denominator “Left-Wingers”.

Kinda like game developers thinking Hero Shooters, and GaaS games still appeal to people. Really this year has proven that most people are done wanting to play multi-players. Or at least new IP multi-players.  Time to focus on charging people for new skins in single player games, and prioritize making New Game+ extremely different in development.

The first life is strange was really good. it had all that but didn't put it before the actual story or general setting. but from part 2, that became the forefront and the series just pivoted to mainly only an lgbt series. sales have dropped with every entry after that so I'm not surprised.

15 years ago? So two years before Sudekis and Wilde were dating? If you're going to lie at least lie well.

Regardless, he was right to. Wilde was probably cheating on him multiple times before they divorced.

The film — featuring a cast of West Philly queers donning top hats and bonnets

Those Who Wait is neither a documentary nor a narrative film (its inability to be classified is an aspect of its queerness, Bockwinkel says). It leans heavily on sound, movement, and slow shots, dwelling on images of people smelling flowers and gazing at the sunrise after expecting the world to end, and it leans very lightly on dialogue.

As an early title card explains: “We look to the Hopeful — these ‘Millerites’ — not as a history lesson but as experts in a feeling.”

Let's take an interesting historical event, remove the history and just make it about queerness. Using the Dustborn strategy I see.

This is exactly what their problem is. Take a story that should be interesting to history nerds like me and twist it around so history nerds don't watch it. It's supposedly the first movie from these guys and they try to make it as niche as possible. I look forward to all the crying when nobody watches it. Good job!

I agree. You can just tell when the editing comes from some /pol/ obsessed basement dwellers malding to the point they have to get their own politics across.

Dustborn isn't really something to get upset about. People are already having a good time mocking it just as it is.

Like I said, moments of brilliance ruined by “but not, seriously, I genuinely like Trump. Not in the meme way but in the “white replacement theory” way”.

Edgelord humor is an art on itself. Snob
