Remember when the original intention of the PC principle thread was to make fun of pc culture and the false outrage that comes with it?

Fun times.

I do love me some bread.

So just for context of the current discussion, we’re going to pretend Anita didn’t just try to extort cdprojektred for personal gain? That she’s doing it to be “inclusive” and “woke?”

Just want to know what kind of feelings people are dealing with today.

i'd hate to work in the game design industry, holy fuck. you're sitting over here working 100+ hours a week trying to avoid tech debt and a million other things and people threatening to end your career because you use the wrong hex color on a random npc

The people working over 60 hours aren't the one in danger of anything. Management would be if you actually thought Anita has some kind of power over what a company does.

“That’s a great game you got there cyberpunk. Would be a shame if something were to happen to it...”

That’s some mafia shit right there lol. I respect the hustle. Anyone who think it’s anything more than that though is woefully naive.

That's how I read her post too

these people take a thing made specifically for fun and entertainment and do their best to suck all of the fun out of it by going on a hunt to get offended by something, anything, just so everyone knows how progressive they are

If you cant enjoy a game because some stranger critiqued it, then that's your problem, even if that critique is pants on head retarded.

oh no, i agree she is largely useless. but clearly there are people who agree and wouldn't buy the game because of fabricated outrage, which effects everyone who is employed there. companies don't keep people employed if they don't make money, it's kind of a business thing

People can choose where to spend money and can withhold their money when the product doesn't line up to their ideals. What else is new? You want their money? Consider their ideals, none of the shit "sjw's" cry about if implemented would actually stop good games from being good.

sjws don't play video games they just cry about them

i don't really want to go round and round here, but the premise i was trying to establish is the guy who's coding this shit 12 hours a day probably isn't considering things like racial/sexual equality as that's not usually what a programmer would be considering when trying to deliver a polished product. requiring such things to play a game or for a game to be successful is a bit asinine

They do play games but it’s usually Life Is Strange and shit.

Not hating on Life Is Strange btw it’s a good game

No, the artists, designers and management above decide if this looks like what they want.

So basically only big studios have the luxury of not being looked at as racist/sexist. If it's a solo game designer there wouldn't be any outrage?

Kinda arguing semantics now but I'm sure you'd agree there would still be outrage.

Whatever argument you're making is lost. You can slice and dice it however you want, ultimately you can't be upset that some people don't buy your game because you made a game they didn't want to play.

i won this argument -me

pretty sure no one is making that argument, obviously different people enjoy different things otherwise every single one of us would be playing minecraft and there would be no new games for example. saying that a game is sexist/racist for asinine reasons though is what i am arguing against. hope that makes sense to you, congrats on the win

[archibaldcrane]

I just love how the "I just want to play games" crowd is constantly sidetracked from playing games by people's criticism of them lol

like

my dude if you want to play games play games and stop getting involved in the culture war
