Disgruntled former game dev.

Remembering the good ol' days of gaming... and letting out some bottled rage along the way.

This is going to be a loooooong thread 🧵👇

@k__am We've let you guys cook for 7 years and all we got is shit PC ports, unasked for remasters, and a new protagonist no one finds appealing.

All on the heels of the disaster tlou2, and the unanimously hated season 2 of the show.

Faith in ND is at a historic low for good reason.

@sh0xp @MightyKeef How they've moved the needle?

Several game companies have hired her and activists like her as consultants to ensure their games align with the goals of the feminist movement. This is explicitly FF's mission by their own admission.

worst* spiderman movies

Homecoming:
- no action scenes worth rewatching
- no swinging scenes to speak of
- spiderman runs thru fields and drives a mustang instead. Yippee
- Ned is the annoying "he was like BLAM and then I was like WHOA" caricature
- the only reason MJ has any romantic connotation with Peter is because they have to explicitly say she's MJ at the end

Far From Home:
- spiderman not in NYC is lame af
- the bus scene with the drone is so fuckin cringe omg
- blip nonsense competes with the rest of the story
- spiderman handing the glasses to mysterio is so brain dead
- last third or so is dope I'll say that

No Way Home
- "sure Peter I'll just rearrange all of time and space for you real quick, whoa hang on what do you mean you didn't think this through!?" (Dr. Strange made temporarily retarded to generate the plot)
- lizard cgi is dog shit
- sandman and connors being reduced to reused footage yikes lol
- we're finally getting the "great power" speech... 3 FUCKING MOVIES IN? this is act 1 shit for any other spiderman movie good lord
- loved having tobey and Andrew back of course but that's about it. Very contrived to get it there

They are extremely flawed. I'll take SM1&2/TASM1 any day

@sh0xp @MightyKeef You would say it's a stretch to say that an organization called FeministFrequency had a political agenda?

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@Phant0mSl0th Actual peak scifi:

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@sh0xp @MightyKeef You think there hasn't been a push by left-leaning activists, starting around 2015, to push for less sexualized depictions of women?

You think Anita Sarkeesian and others had 0 impact on anything?

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@StorgaardMikkel @MikeDrucker I called out far left and far right and you still pretend like I'm one sided.

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@ultfcksht @TrTriton0501 They've been swinging and missing since tlou2.

- tlou2 heavily mixed reception, possibly overall negative
- season 2 of tlou2 show widely panned
- remake and remasters out the ass that people have heavily criticized
- cancelling tlou2 online after 7 years of development

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

Not right wing.

But yeah. That's actually exactly what we were doing 10-15 years ago.

Then a bunch of political activists that don't even care about gaming came into the space and pushed all the talented devs out by calling everything they did, including genuine, innocent disagreement as problematic.

So the argument is the other way around. The far left Marxists who want every character to be an androgenous queer girl boss should go and make a game that people actually want to buy and play rather than hijacking popular AAA franchises as a vessel for their political virtue signalling.

@HellsiteLuvr @KropolisGaming @Volatile_Vi @Brokowski25 You're still seething over this, huh?

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@KropolisGaming @Volatile_Vi @Brokowski25 It's not solely the fact that she's bald.

It's the inference that such a miscalculation in what gamers want suggests there will be miscalculations that reverberate through the rest of the final product.

That's the pattern.

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@KropolisGaming @Volatile_Vi @Brokowski25 🤨 one can't want to play as characters that they find visually appealing?

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@jamesodoyle2k1 @MikeDrucker You think game devs are... Far right??

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@MeatballMonday1 @MightyKeef Agree to disagree my friend

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@rottencxndy @idasacas @TrTriton0501 I agree gender is an unimportant concept of biology. It is not biology. It is psychological.

Funny you're throwing jabs at IQ when you can't even type properly 🤣

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@blobonblon @Zombie_Penguin3 @MightyKeef Ok

[GridWave_64 @GridWave_64]

@juhayelen @MikeDrucker All good homie 👍 appreciate the civil discussion
