Why don't chuds just stop consuming shitty mass produced culture? They only play AAA videogames and watch capeshit and then complain about how woke and DEI it is.

Why not play indie videogames and watch art films instead where the creators have total creative freedom?

bitching about le woke video game is a cottage industry. people like this are doing it for money and attention (which translates to money) and the more attention you give them the more money they make.

They don't actually care about the media they're shrieking about, they only think that they do. In reality, they just like having something to be mad at.

Society puts way too big an emphasis on positive emotions, with happiness being seen as your ultimate goal in life. But your brain isn't wired to always be happy; anger, fear, sadness are all "negative" emotions, but a lot of the time, that's how you want to feel. Once you're aware of this, you can fulfil these emotional needs in a much healthier way than screaming about Star Wars. These people won't, thoughever.

That and also >>39068

people in general are immature and seek drama and outrage for some reason

think of all the teenagers you know in highschool or whatever, like half of them never stopped being like that, among those who didn't another half at least had their identities fractured and destroyed by capital

More importantly, not only are you not meant to be happy all the time, feeling extreme emotions in any direction all the time is a sign of some kind of irregularity. It's OK to have emotions but they should be experienced and expressed in a reserved and mature way that doesn't create a domino effect with the people around you. The default should be anhedonic contendedness. Not mania or depression. People sometimes confused anhedonic contentedness for depression because they're taught they should be smiling all the time. This misleads people to think emotional regulation is bad.

Because when they complain about "woke" in AAA they can feign punching up. The only non-woke games are AAA, according to the woke games spreadsheet. Because a game would have to be designed by a commitee of investors to be solely pandering to chvds.

If they made their own games they would accuse eachother of being woke because any amount of creativity would lead to woke decisions even accidentally. An attempt to put boobs on screen would be putting a woman on screen. An attempt to be racist would be putting a POC of colour on screen. An attempt to be fun to play would be either neofun, nufun or soyfun. An attempt to be stylistically interesting would be an offense to tradition. Ect…

why do you make so many threads insisting on psychoanalysis of right wing ideology and freak out whenever anyone says it isn't important? do your interactions with them on The Everything App flatter your intelligence that much? we've been through this every day of your life.
stop inventing tortured explanations for the simple reality that ideology is a tool for fascists and Bernie Sanders was always there to fuck your faggot holes bloody?

just a suggestion???

It's called sliding.
He has no life and is addicted ro shitting places up online to feel some power does this topic because he knows jannies won't delete this shit.

Those video game chuds are more like ssethtzeentach and jontron era game grumps than the synthetic man and critical drinker. The entire vidya culture war reeks of a psyop by those same suits(likely spearheaded by the same glowies that own Activision-Blizzard) that run the industry so they can get away with pumping predatory monetary practices and releasing unfinished products(gig economy) as "gamers" online continue to argue over petty shit like "male gaze"(muh unrealistic boob armor) and "cultural marxism"(muh too many black characters).

This. Idealism is a mofo. It's especially bad that they condition kids to be this way.
Society expects kids to be be either happy go lucky exuberant or else they're apathetic leeches.

>pseuds really think Fellini, Tarkovsky, &c., constitutes art films
Kek

>>39079
We get it. You're on a different level. You watch Lars Von Trier or something all day. But compared to Marvel slop, watching Tarkovsky may as well be watching an art film.

>>39079
All films are art films, especially the bad and sloppy ones.

Thank/fuck you for reminding me of that. I looked it up and apparently that image is like seven years old now. It's depressing that we've been stuck on soy memes long enough for them to see both Trump presidencies.

>>39082
I remember the version of that meme from before the soy part got added back on google+.
That site got me debate addicted before I even understood long division.

>>39079
its only "pseud" if youre doing it because you think it makes you an intellectual and youre in a smugness arms race with other pseuds. art is made to be appreciated not to flavor your farts for sniffing

Even that wouldn't work.

Speak for yourself. I rarely see them. There's life outside your corner.

Triple A games are fucking dogshit though

people are playing indie games at a much higher rate nowadays, in fact theres been a bit of an indie game revolution recently because of how sick people are getting of these shitty games
As for "art films", kind of hard to watch when none of the companies are giving any kind of creative license to the director whatsoever, everything they do nowadays must go through around 50 higherups before it gets cleared

Jesus christ, unpucker you're assholes a bit.

>>39068
The amazing athiest admitted all his anti-SJW stuff was just easy content fodder. The whole thing has taken on a different level though. Lonh stopped being an easy trick to get quick views and has become an industry stable. I wouldn't be surprised if half the chvds complaining about how woke the latest AAA game is are paid influences by the game studios to be professional rage baiters.

>>39067
>Why don't chuds just stop consuming shitty mass produced culture?
But then how could they complain about it?

>>39067
Real, all these "Modern Gaming Sucks" videos are really annoying. I think that despite shitting on normies all the damn time they themselves have the most milquetoast tastes possible. They literally view indie games as pixelated garbage or gay just because of retro-inspired or colorful graphics and are too lazy to search for games that aren't mainstream.

>>39067
Because they are manbabies crying like they are getting a red hot metal pole shoved up their poopchute the moment they see something they dont like getting reminded of the existence of gays (hundreds of millions on this planet) and anybody not white enough (billions), but they still need the escapism, so its an eternal cycle of butthurt.

>>39613
I'm 100% sure they're just casuals who only play what's popular and swoon over realistic graphics.

>>39069
I think they are mad that they are not being pandered to, I used to be like this and thought that the slop generator meant that people liked slop, supply and demand, everyone is dumb but me, normies have shit taste, etc. I missed gamergate cause I was busy hating other peoples music. The simple answer is that corporations publish the lowest common denominator for the largest market share, but also that advertising drives demand and monopolies stifle alternatives. Its not that people necessarily like the slop, its that nothing else is supplied except that which generates the greatest margins.

>>39613
>Taking steam posts seriously
After that retarded update where they added the points shop and allowed people to award each other smart trolls realized they could say the dumbest bullshit and rack up infinite points to spend on profiles or whatever. 90% of comments lile this are just ragebait to get free points. Vakve is so dumb they killed their forums with this garbage incentive system.

>>39067
They dont want their preferred media to exist, they want other things to not exist also. They want to be the only accepted culture.

>>39067
a subset of chuds are genuinely mentally ill and will watch something and yell at the screen. These people need a new war or something

>>39067
Production stimulates consumption, not the other way around, howeverthoughbeit

they wanna be made about the le wokisme just to be mad there is no real ideology

>>39659
Unironcially this, they're sore winners. It's not enough to win politically, everyone has to bow down to them, they want to be the culture as well, everyone has to like them

>>39067
This absolutely drives me insane about /v/ posters. They'll complain about Japanese devs pandering to the west, but then none of them played Kunitsu-Gami.

>>41563
>denuvo

>>41566
It's just a recent example that was in my mind. I wasn't recommending you buy the game.

>>41563
I feel like the woke games list is a misplay because now someone could theoretically chart out that chvd games are more likely to have DRM, are AAA or some other statistical observation that looks bad on them.

>>39067
They want games that they dont like to not exist. If a 'woke' game is released to them it is harming them.

>>41576
It's like the asmongold logic where if you're pro-anyone who isn't white straight and male, you're actively anti-white straight male.

>>41563
>They'll complain about Japanese devs pandering to the west, but then none of them played Kunitsu-Gami.
Because when they say "pandering to the west", they only mean nonwhite(black brown and asian in a way they don't find hot) and gay stuff(they start fighting each other over whether or not yuri and yaoi are woke enough, because one side is "well I'm okay with gay shit if it's not in my face bro" and the other side just openly hates gay people).
It's always cringe when western chauvinist types suddenly start fucking yapping about cultural relativism and western cultural imperialism, but only when it's their weeb shit and only if there's "woke" that wasp probably in their favorite game they played when they were 12

I also like when they talk about superior Japanese games, and they choose fucking coomer gacha with no fucking gameplay and tons of manipulation to make you gamble for more jpegs.
Do these guys really like games?

>>41584
>Do these guys really like games?
Old /v/ermin joked about hating video games so much the newer generations took it entirely seriously.
