How Corporate Greed is Killing Your Favourite Video Games

I'm not sure which part of what I said you found so outlandish that you had to resort to personal insults.

Women take way more photos of themselves than men and the vast majority of coders are still men, both those things are facts.

Let's not even talk of the reaction that a males only photo of a gaming studio would bring in this misandry riddled industry.

Ah, so you've doubled down. I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt and thought you'd just exaggerated for effect.

However you want to spin it, "men do all the work, women just take the credit" is about as incel as it gets.

This isn't me saying DEI isn't having an impact on the industry either, I just don't believe it's anywhere as extreme as that.

Let's be clear first, your opinion of me or whatever personal insults from you mean absolutely nothing to me, I was asking what triggered the attack.

Ubisoft employees are still 74% men so yes statistically speaking the vast majority of the work is still being done by men.

A females only photo is not only pointless but also misleading and only serves to push the current sexist agenda.

By "always someone" you mean the vast majority of gamers, hence why all the games infested with it are failing recently and the studios going under.

And that pretty much sums it up.
Most “gamers” I would imagine want game studios to thrive, compete and put out excellent content for us to enjoy, and at the moment it seems like theres a race to the bottom for some of them.
As for comments about being outraged etc, it’s the same old virtue signalling nonsense from the same old posters who seem to have little interest in gaming.

"Routed in white supremacist patriarchal values"

More from the same racist organisation.


No white people, a work environment with white people is not unsafe, its just that white people are a microaggression, a safe work environment is an environment that have only people like ones self.

In the process of fighting monsters, make sure you don't become one yourself.

Interesting vid thanks for sharing.

Games have proper gone down the pan lately, what's annoying though is often their fan base will call out the "Devs" calling them lazy etc when id imagine the issue is the higher ups rushing everything through to meet shareholders deadlines so its really stomping on the developer's creativities and ideas that could have made the game much better than it is.

What REALLY is frustrating me ATM with games is not so much the pricing or just how redic DLC has taken over games throwing it in you're face every screen etc...its the lack of effort with them NOT dealing with huge cheating issues (Rust & COD)...They could totally put millions into making custom anticheats that's better yet don't bother, Just slap Easyanticheat in there and call it a day....THAT is lazy!

"Lazy" is not to be taken literally, that should come without saying. They are happy to just copy - paste the same stuff over and over again. Or make it worse.

Let's take it this way. CDPR were accuse of crunching time with TW3. I think they've said "yeah, sorry, we're not gonna do it again". I think they did it with CB77.
Leadership came out after the game's disastrous launch (CB77) and said "sorry, it's us, we're proud of the game (lol), don't blame the devs, will make it better". ChatGPT says CDPR had 500 employees before CB77 launched. After it spiked to 1000+ although it had a .... reputation.

Plus all the game devs that work in/for major studios/companies that are known to be... "problematic", why they don't leave? Change carrier, whatever, leave. Instead they chose to stay. They are part of the problem.

The golden age of gaming has passed. It was fun while it lasted but now it's just better graphics in dull remakes to justify expensive GPUs.

I'm not sure about that. I mean... I loved Deus Ex (the first one), but if it would come out now with the same mechanics (even with path tracing, lets say), it wouldn't score that high on my radar. They were good for their time, but wouldn't do just as well now.

Yes, and i appreciate what you're saying. :)

I wasn't pointing at you, but rather at the people who were fighting against discrimination and racism ended up being the very thing they fought against.

This is not true - a great game doesn't have to be an old (or 'golden age') game. As said before, if you're not enjoying gaming then perhaps move on to something that you do enjoy because hand-wringing over the past rarely make you happy in the here and now ... except for those 'gamers' who seem to enjoy being perpetually offended for [insert stupid reasons]

Godot game engine developers 'paying customers' blocked by community managers for not agreeing with their politics. These community managers are using the platform to push their politics and then ban anyone who reacts negatively to that, ban them from the software, to be clear.

Same thing as Hell Divers 2 community managers posting fury phonography in the HD2 Discord and then banning people for reacting to it with puke emojis.

Its not just that they are only doing this to one or two accounts, they are on a rampage, this software is probably not going to survive this.

Of course it is, it's what it's always been about, ugly landwhales hate attractive women, while claiming to be feminists, and hate the men who like attractive women and not them, all the gay feminists just hate white men full stop.

Everything they talk about is race and gender, that's because they're racist, and it's because they're misandrists.

The only difference now is that via the internet and digital technologies they can do something about rather than sit at home seething, whining and crying and drowning their sorrows.

Therere' a huge diffeernece between female activism from the suffragettes and women fighting for equal pay and maternity leave in recent decades and these freaks.

Haters gonna hate that's all it is, same as that tragic weirdo whose stated goal is to "burn the game industry to the ground" - a pathetic loser who is compeletly embittered by his own failure and drowning in his own entitlement and narcissism. Have you ever seen any of these people have any joy and happiness anout anything?

They're all miserable, spiteful, sad and pathetic. And they're really really mad now, because they're losing and they're terrified...and because they know the DEI grifting gray train is about to come flying off the tracks.

:D
 
Have some spare time this week to have another long awaited play through of Far Cry 3 (imo the best all round one), and have been enjoying it immensely.
This game really shows the Ubisoft of old and how great they were, with nothing off the table and the devs being allowed to push their creative boundaries without the fear of upsetting some DEI self loathing purple haired pronoun freaks.
Imagine the devs presenting these characters and all that goes with them to the management these days..

Frankly, the sooner these studios go bust the better, if nothing else just to put a warning out there that catering to the real gamers and not paid reviewers is probably the best way forward financially.

Farcry 3 was awesome, i played through it twice, i never do that, i feel like playing it again, its been a few years, played it originally on a HD 7870 XT, then again on the RTX 2070S, i have to do it again now on the RX 7800 XT.

Vaas is one of the best antagonists in all of gaming, anyone reading this if you haven't played Farcry 3, maybe before your time? Play it, this was Ubisoft at its best, this Ubisoft no longer exists. Don't google videos of it just play it.

PS: unlock the special sniper rifle, the big red one, as soon as you can. Fun Fun....

Edit: welp.......
