Not sure if this is the right place, but since this is the gaming tab, I say why not?

Back then, GamerGate was the start of something fresh, something edgy, something that was actually rebellious against both the bourgeois moralisms stifling the internet and the feminist hegemony that no western male could escape from. It was an escape valve, in other words.

But of course, I was wrong as GamerGate later on mestatized into being another wing of the current right-wing hegemonic ChudIntern. Indeed, GamerGate was merely an exercise in online reactionary activism, but we should actually try to analyse it as opposed to dismissing it as chuds being chuds.

It’s won’t give you the kind of analysis that has probably been done to death here, such as the alienation of young men, the rise of white upper-class female idpol and the HR-style managerial culture that preceded online censorship and SJWs’ political correctness, journos forming email groups as part of a coordinated attack on the median gamer, the MSM’s double standards towards female-exclusive spaces vs treating male-only spaces (such as gaming) pathologically, etc…

This is a good summary of the event from a gamergater’s POV: https://wolfsheadonline.com/how-wikipedia-and-molly-white-rewrote-the-history-of-gamergate/

Instead, I’ll say this: The rise of the gooner chuds that you see today is a product of GamerGate, itself being downstream from the left’s rejection of sex-positivity and and pathologisation of any form of assertive male heterosexuality to heed the demands of the feminist bourgeoise that held a stranglehold on the left.

Obviously the online right isn’t really sex-positive as much as being pro-sexual hierarchy and has been the case within the western right since the days of the Nazis and even before then (e.g., Annunzio’s enterprise in Fiume). It’s just that their vision of sexuality makes enough space for male heterosexuality to attract young men (the most revolutionary demographic) into their fold. The left’s response? It’s either dumb Puritanism as shown by puriteens who think Euphoria (that show starring Sydney Sweeney) is rape culture, or bastardised “trad Marxism” about banning porn and prosties cuz muh exploitation even tho Chinese games nowadays are heavily gooned out + the Soviet bloc was lax on non-comPost too long.

Hi, I'm making triple A game. My only question is how to make a triple A without their budget because I'm indie developer and I do everything on my own. I want to make a large sprawling adventure game the likes of which you've never seen; but I'm quickly hitting a roadblock because I want to go all the way in. So I'm writing my own game engine with OpenGL (for mobile) and Vulkan (for other devices) as a renderer. What do you think is the best way to create this large 3D RPG game? Is it feasible? How do I make the big bucks because I think the world owes me making me hyper-rich in the millions and even billions? Are all of this a waste of my time?

Don't tell me please to make small games like strardew valley, limbo, or hollow knight because we all know those games are extremely trash and playing them for too long will give you autism from how whimsical and out of touch with reality they are. The colors in them are either hippy acid junk or dull monochromatic depressing blend. They are also silly with their character movements and interaction because they are in 2D space. Everyone knows the superior option is 3D because it has larger expressive range unlike those trash 2D games everyone tries to trick you into playing. I still say it to this day. 2D games are a scourge in the game world. The better alternative is a full transition into a 3D environment and the serious contemplation of adapting hyper-dimension (such as 4D and even 16D) into gaming world. 2D games are holding us back from evolving and becoming better and smarter. So don't tell me don't make the witcher 3 clone. Because you're opinion is instantly worthless and silly.

Plus, how could I argue the world owes me millions and even billions when I'm making 2D stupid games like trash hollow knight and stardew valley and Limbo. I especially hate Limbo. If I was developer of Limbo I'd hide myself in a hole in the ground and never show my face to humanity.

I just beat this game, I remember seeing another discussion thread about this game but I can't find it, but I want to talk about the game, full spoilers.

Recently SEGA allowed a chuddy VTuber into their early access partners programs for Sonic Crossworlds. The fandom was rightfuly upset and SEGA removed them because they realized they broke most of their TOS rules. Now she's throwing a temper tantrum and calling everyone who called her out "hateful harrassers" or some shit while her fans go out of their way to doxx people who called them out in the first place. Thoughts?

Anybody here at leftypol love or hate the Postal series?

Coming from a guy who has been playing way too much Postal 2.

I wonder if Postal 4 is even worth it.

Why has no one made a thread about this game, yet? Hello?? It's a Soviet city builder game. Has anyone here played this?

The show version is so bad. At least the video game version looked like she could actually scrap with mfs and had some semblance of actual humanity even while killing Joel. This version of Abby is just cruel and emotionally immature. The video game version of Abby literally didn’t derive any pleasure from killing Joel and didn’t take an eternity in killing Joel in front of his loved ones. In fact, game Abby even had to calm her own friends down to focus on the needs of her own people.

Amazon fucking butchered Abby and made her into a mindless knockoff meant to avoid whatever criticism coomers had about a woman looking like she could survive the shit she had to put up with. Fuck Amazon Abby.

I was looking at some games for reference, and I found Silent Hill f. One thing that stunned me was how bad the game is designed.

The dialogue is bland and boring. Character lines reveal nothing and the conversation is horribly tense for no reason. The characters are young but nothing about them suggests that. It's like they are middle-aged people going through midlife crisis.

The animations are silly. Enemies react far later after being struck and their movement is repetitive. The atmosphere is horrible too. They used too much fog and darkness and blurring, they actually removed details from the game and because of that it looks monochromatic terrible blend.

Hinako has plot armor. Just when she meets her first monster, she conveniently finds a steel pipe right beside her feet to attack it with. There's a lot of reading for instructions in the game.

And the story is junk. Sakuko never said anything about wanting to live in a candy store instead of a shrine. In fact, she dies early in the game very quickly and her relationship to Hinako is shown to be negative further reinforcing you shouldn't care about her. But when Hinako finds her dead, a dramatic cutscene plays and where Hinako is sobbing after she moved Sakuko's body into a candy store, and it's there where she says Sakuko always wanted to live in a candy store. Later in the cutscenes, she clenches her fist in anger and says she will keep her promise to Sakuko. But what promise? Did I miss it? I'm sure there was no promise.

The level design its horrible and extremely linear in a strange fashion. I thought games that put roadblocks in your way to keep to the map are dead but in this one, there's a lot of blocked roads.

Overall I'd rate it:
2/5 – story
4/5 – graphics
