    I really was let down that Ghost of Tsushima didn't have a black, non-binary lesbian to guide me through the Mongolian invasion of Japan

    “Activists pretending to be industry consultants” applies to hundreds of fields now.

    Sweet Baby Inc would 110% look at a franchise like Witcher, which is based on Slavic Europe, and go “hmmmm, needs more people from [insert group other than white] who identify as IKEA furniture”

    Tides are turning, lads. It's time to take our hobbies back.

    They kicked out a woman writer who actually managed to write a great action game series in favor of a male director who wanted to impress another woman for internet credits And that, my friends, is the very essence of this movement. It isn't about doing good, it's about looking and sounding good, while still being a complete and total asshole about it.

    My wife returned from work yesterday having had her work celebrate International Women's day, (never mind that it was the 7th of March, and Int. Women's Day is actually on the 8th). Her workplace had a female entrepreneur talk to the staff on strong women who needed to break stereotypes and concluded her talk with 'And now freebies - chocolate & makeup' undermining her own message by pandering to those very stereotypes. The fact she was continually touting her own makeup business during the talk didn't go unnoticed. Neither did the 'entirely, 100% local products' with 'made in Korea' on the label (can't say exactly where we are, but it sure as fuck ain't Korea).

    Let it be known that one of their employees openly shamed Akira Toriyama on X (Twitter) after his death over a character design. These people (if you can even call them that) are disgusting.

    I love love the fact he brought up Neil Druckmman forcing Amy Hennig out of naughty dog, she wrote all the older games and is an absolute legend.

    -Arkham Batman getting killed off in the most bs way possible -Peter getting replaced as the main Spider-Man Political Activists disguised as Political activists: “why are our games failing?!”

    Sweet baby Inc is like that mind controlling fungus that infects a bug and gets it to act against it's own interests until it eventually dies, just so the fungus can spread itself.
  • @ComposedSage75
    That company is not only up themselves in every way but has already been exposed to what they’ve been pushing in games. Stop paying for products that hate you folks.
  • @johnleonard9102
    99.99% of companies would be thrilled to have free advertising, but not SBI.
  • @tonyjanney1654
    Woke activists, who have never actually worked in the industry, or been part of the business, in any actual productive capacity, pushing an agenda that adds nothing to the product. They are just grifters, seeking money and to stroke their own sense of self-importance.

    If Sweet Baby Inc. was proud of what they did. They wouldn't take down the steam page that tracked them.
  • @linus11vf1j
    Interestingly Arrowhead studios that are riding high on the success of Helldivers 2 specifically pushed back against "The Message" when a minority of people were asking for LGBTQ patches and signage. The CEO bluntly told them "Nope, IT'S A GAME! NOT A POLITICAL LANDSCAPE! " The game itself makes satire of politics too in the most humourous way possible. Super Earth for freedom, Liberty, and Managed Democracy! I'm glad they're doing so well, their game is fun, it's wildly successful, and that's all I could ask for!
  • None of these DEI games has made me feel proud about being brown. Ashamed more like it.
  • @LOrealHardly
    Just finished going through "Honey Infants" list of infected games on Steam, set every single one to 'Ignore' on the Store page. Those ignores will make there way back to the studios so, pure Voting WIth My Feet tactic, I'd recommend you all do so, too..! Beautifully explained as usual, Drinker ma man!
