Glowing reviews for this game...

Either BG3 shifted the paradigm or KC is normiecore now... What do we think, chat?

All the chuds mad about brown people and same-gender relationships existing in this game are eating shit either way.

[kaleidoscopium]

The director is a right-wing asshole, so ERA is treating the game like Cyberpunk all over again.
The game has gay romance options, so it's woke for the extreme right-wingers and the director had some twitter fights with them and called them nazis.

Right-wing freakos are historically the most sensitive fuckers on the planet. They can't handle pushback

The cancer analogy is pretty 4chan esque and talking about Canada and Europe like inhabitable wastelands. 

Right now, after the plane crash meltdown, I think Trump definitely contributes to the culture war shit rather than being a cure it.

I didn't say this, I said exactly what I meant, I'm glad that the immigration situation in the US hasn't led to as many problems as in canada and europe

would you say I'm incorrect about that, do you think I should not be glad, because the immigration issues in the US are worse than in canada and europe?

The idea that immigration is a bigger problem in Canada is a bit absurd. Until about 2-3 years ago, Canada was like the poster child of immigration done right. Immigration only started being "disastrous" once post-Covid inflation hit and the housing crisis got worse, and immigrants were the easy people to blame.

Undocumented immigrants are fairly rare. And stories about a violent crime being commited by an illegal immigrant almost non-existant. lllegal immigrants being paid under the table for agriculture/menial work is not much of a thing either. And overall, people tend to cohabit fairly well.

Immigration has indeed had an effect on the housing crisis, but it's one of many factors decade in the making. Much bigger factors:
-Only about 4-5 cities worth living in
-Nimbiism everywhere
-Treating real estate as an investment
-AirBNB and co
-Politicians being terrified of doing anything that could burst the bubble because if would be political suicide considering home ownership is fairly high
-And the main one: near 0% interest rate during COVID, while most people actually had more money than ever, leading to bidding wars and absurd overinflated house prices.

I wish these sites would've skipped this GamerGater Nazi game, but I guess they need their clicks.

People are actually saying the gay romance is really well done in the new kingdom come game. It's crazy if the famously "non-woke" studio is doing a better job with gay stuff than the ones that pander. 

[killamajig]

Nobody took my bait post to move this crap to the correct thread, so.......................



I don't mind some Trump talk here but we got other threads to shit up with our bitch fights.

[Jansen]

Half the posts in the kingdom come delivery 2 thread are now asking where the review thread is. They seem scared of making it for some reason

No solidarity on era

Brb gonna hit up BSky to find like minded individuals

The only people who care about the diversity in the game are Ree and the chuds. They’re a tiny minority. Everyone else will just buy it and have fun running around, while those idiots are at each other’s throats.

Almost as if everything is more nuanced. I met the guy, he's an absolutely progressive left-leaning run-of-the-mill eastern European. Like most slav game devs he loves trolling, laughed when Trump won, when he lost, and when he won again. But he supports gay rights, abortions, think weapons are cool because he doesn't live in a country that's under constant threat of school shootings, supports Ukraine's fight against fascism and got really mad when Trump cozied with Putin and when we saw literal nazis popping up everywhere in Europe.

American binary politics shouldn't be slapped on people from diverse upbringings and ethnic backgrounds, it's incredibly silly and completely anti-DEI.

Ban incoming... 10.. 9.. 8..

Someone was wrong on the Internet. You expect me to let that go?
Or to move it to the obscure thread where my vast understanding of the issues will only be appreciated by 3-4 posters and that one schizo?

[kaleidoscopium]

Studio founder and lead dev is a well-known GamerGater, racist and misogynist that also got caught promoting NeoNazis.
He might be the single worst person in the whole industry.

5 posts later, different reply 

If you told me Daniel Vavra would direct a game that had some of the strongest depictions of queer romance I would think you were joking.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/kingdome-come-deliverance-2-review-thread.1098792/page-2#post-135266868

They’re gonna turn their opinions around on Vavra because you can Bum a guy in the game now aren’t they

I was about to post this one. Really nice touch with the "anti-DEI" comment...nice little jab + an astute point.

Fun bonus:

Yeah go ahead and hand wave all the bigotry he posts on his social media then.

Notice they can’t come up with examples other than him wearing a troll t shirt

He'll get put on that list for future banning when the heat dies down.

[Averon]

Is there any proof Vavra is a Nazi? I think the closest thing they got is that he supposedly wore a shirt from a controversial metal band.

[Nintex]

Congratulations PogiJones, I hope your dad fully recovers  



Also congratulations to Mexico for putting in place border security that will create a more safe border area for both countries, showing some cojones.

And last but not least, congratulations to President Trump for ending yet another war with a phone and a rolodex and breaking the control of the cartels over Mexico.

[Snoopy]

Why does nobody take ree’s outrage seriously?

I don't know if he's the worst one I know but yeah, how I feel honestly. And I admit, I caved and bought the game. It's hard to find a really good AAA rpg that actually focuses on immersion and roleplaying *sigh*. Especially if it's not turn based (I like turn based ok but I prefer live action but most live action RPG really tries to get a broader audience at the expense of the roleplay aspect).

It’s a mystery innit

[killamajig]

Even Era types are admitting the gay romance was handled really well in the game. Hell freezes over once again.

[kaleidoscopium]

He went to a GamesCom interview with a german magazine wearing a band shirt of a convicted NeoNazi because he wanted to promote that dude.
Don't try to normalize guys like Vavra.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/kingdome-come-deliverance-2-review-thread.1098792/page-3#post-135267789

Broke their brains with his t shirts

[killamajig]

No, That's why the Nazi thing kind of falls flat with him. He's definitely a chud from their perspective, but not even close to some kind of Nazi or Neo-Nazi. I believe he said he's got Jewish heritage

[Nintex]

How many electoral votes would canada get

I don't give a shit because if that happens I'll be dead from a Nazi US soldier bullet between my two eyes.

Can people please give it a fucking rest with these 'if it happens' questions?

Spoiler: come get your tariffs (click to show)(click to hide)

[HaughtyFrank]

Not that I know of. They even called him a Nazi before he wore that shirt, all because he said that rural Bohemia wasn't filled with diversity.
He also has Jewish ancestry so a pretty dumb accusation to begin with

The Kingdom cum thread is definitely going to be the one to watch. It's true you literally can't post all the dumb takes in here. There's too many

I like the people that come in whining that b dubs won’t ban it like they banned the evil cyberpunk game

[Alpacx]

Hoping for more good progress for your dad Pogijones

Also Polygon upset they didn't get a review code

As part of our final request for code on Jan. 10, Polygon's editor-in-chief Chris Plante contacted Plaion and Warhorse's PR firm to get a comment as to why we were denied advance access to the game. He stressed in his message that our hope is that this decision wasn't due to any personal bias against Polygon, nor motivated by any of our previous coverage of games made by Warhorse or any other. In short, we wanted to know: Was Polygon being blacklisted?

"How dare you not give us a code after we kept calling you a Nazi. You're so thin skinned"

"Gamer gate". The first game came out in 2018. Well after the gamergate nonsense

Well if you met him then I guess it's all good. People that are progressive usually do say things like "there is a progressive bias in video games journalism", right?

But... of course there is. Literally show me all those conservative games journalists who constantly write think pieces about how modern games are dumb. That's a niche solely filled by YouTubers and twitter grifters.

Dragon Age ruined its own world building by removing all the fantasy racism against the Elfs but you'd be hard pressed to see any games journalist even mention that
