@lenatheplug @californiapost A really bad publicity stunt

A woman in Arkansas says checking on her cows at night can be a bit “spooky”, since one of them has a face that looks all-too-alien by torchlight. 👽🫣

A cosmic cube and a sword with talking streamers attached to it. Yeah this had God of War written all over it

Faye, Phranque, and Rue will brave the beautiful yet dangerous afterlife of the gods!

@YorchTorchGames Take the woman away, it still looks like a bad game. A talking jelly cube, a sword with streamers, and colorful purple graphics?

🚨BREAKING: New gameplay footage from God of War: Laufey has just been released.

The cooking mechanics look incredible.

Quentin Tarantino slams Hollywood as a "flavorless sausage factory" where miscast actors and "audience pandering" are ruining new movies.

“Flaws, implausibilities, audience pandering, miscast performers or just plain stupid s*it usually torpedoes every new movie coming out of the flavorless sausage factory that used to call itself Hollywood. These days, the entire concept of what is a movie is more inclined to inspire contempt in me than generosity... I’ve seen movies I liked since – ‘West Side Story’ (2021); ‘Horizon: An American Saga’ Chapter 1 and 2 (both 2024), a few others, but nothing that really held me in its grip and swept me away to the magical land of enjoyment that I use to visit regularly and was the reason I loved movies above all other artforms. These days I’d rather read a book." (via Sight & Sound)

@B3Tr0ller @xMBGx I’m sure your face looks like this: 🥴

@BalthierRacing @xMBGx What a tough guy

@TakashiSaitoh96 @k1rallik 🤣🤣🤣

[Wilde Seneca @Real_AEX]

@PatEwhack72 @xMBGx I got that game with high expectations. I don’t even finish the game, got half-way through it only.

[Wilde Seneca @Real_AEX]

@mrpyo1 You can see the decrease in quality though. I don’t trust the publisher anymore. The 2018 game was amazing, but the 2022 game was just boring. The next game I feel will be even worse IMO

[Wilde Seneca @Real_AEX]

@GameSpot 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Wilde Seneca @Real_AEX]

@WilliamRAguilar The game hasn’t been that good since the 2018 version. The last GoW game in 2022 was fairly average to be honest. I didn’t even finish playing it. I don’t trust this studio

Le problème n’est pas « jouer une femme ». Le problème est le pattern qui est devenu impossible à ignorer ces dix dernières années dans le AAA.

God of War, c’est Kratos. C’est un guerrier spartiate brisé, un anti-héros masculin brut, violent, tragique. Changer le protagoniste principal pour sa femme dans une nouvelle itération, c’est comme faire un nouveau Halo sans Master Chief ou un nouveau Doom sans le Doomguy. Ce n’est plus la même promesse.

On a vu le même schéma partout :
•Assassins Creed passe de Ezio/Alexios à des protagonistes féminines systématiques.
•Battlefield et d’autres licences « diversifient » en remplaçant.
•Star Wars, Marvel, etc. : les hommes sont souvent relégués ou ridiculisés.

Ce n’est pas de la paranoïa. C’est un constat. Et très souvent, ces changements s’accompagnent d’une écriture plus faible, de personnages qui servent d’abord un message plutôt qu’une histoire.
Les joueurs n’ont jamais eu de problème avec les femmes fortes bien écrites (Lara Croft, Samus, 2B, Aloy dans Horizon 1, etc.). Le ras-le-bol vient quand on sent que le genre est devenu un critère de casting prioritaire sur la qualité du personnage et le respect de l’ADN de la licence.

Dire « mais on jouait un hérisson bleu ! » c’est de la mauvaise foi. Sonic n’était pas un héros humain dans une saga ultra-narrative centrée sur la masculinité toxique et la rédemption. God of War, si.

Le vrai problème n’est pas le sexe du protagoniste.
C’est qu’une partie de l’industrie a décidé que l’identité comptait plus que l’histoire, que le message comptait plus que le fun, et que les fans historiques pouvaient aller se faire voir s’ils n’étaient pas contents.
On ne demande pas que tous les jeux aient des mecs baraqués.
On demande juste qu’on arrête de transformer des licences cultes en outils de signalement vertueux.
Si le jeu est excellent, les gens l’achèteront.
Si c’est encore un produit « inclusif » avant d’être un bon jeu… on sait déjà comment ça finit.

I don't think David Jaffe understood the culture war until the day it happened to HIS game.

We were never against women in games. We were against flipping entire IPs to force women into major franchises, and making everything fem coded in what were male focused IPs.

For years he called us chuds and incels for pushing against the destruction of our beloved games.

Now it's happening to his own creation and maybe, just maybe, he finally sees it.

[Wilde Seneca @Real_AEX]

@aydos_egemen @k1rallik Ok cool, still looks like a Disney movie. They are doing this with a lot of established IP. It’s not just replacing the character, it’s also the tone and the writing. Oh and ‘press R2’ to do this or that. It’s stupid

African migrants force 2 Australian boys into a toilet at a McDonalds in Melbourne.

They force the boys to fight against each other and threatening them by putting machetes to their throats.
