The great GamerGate discussion. (Stuff and things)

Netherrealm: ORANGE MAN BAD.
 
On a serious note, it’s just pathetic. I loved netherrealm. I preordered MK11 Premium edition on Steam. I wanted to buy the game again once I get Switch. I have collectors edition MKX statue of scorpion. I’ve been playing since the reboot (there was also that PSP game long time ago). I wanted to spend money on official toys based on the universe.
 
In just 3 weeks, they made me regret each one of those decisions, and from a fan, turned me into someone, who will probably never buys anything from them again. Even Disney with Star Wars took about 2-3 years for me to start hating thier guts.
 
It’s just sad where our world is going. Soon there will be no developer who cares about Gamers want, but instead they will care about what Kotaku and Polygon want. Oh, and Anita Sarkeesian too.
 
To add insult to the injury, they are now blocking the fans who criticize thier actions and taking down videos. If they haven’t yet started acusing us of being “mysoginist, nazi white trash”, I belive they start really soon. To quote a famous, british youtuber:
 
“Get Bent”

@AWGear  
I know the community manager has been running his mouth about fans.

@Cyborg_pony  
So he’s a “Dirty, dirty smear merchant” too? :P

@Cyborg_pony  
You know, that’s the funny thing.
 
Power and ability aren’t priorities to that sphere.
 
Being in the right is enough.

I just found out Sam Maggs worked on Spider-man….
 
Swell….

@DeathCloud  
Do you think Rockstar is an indie studio ?  
Fucking hell if you think CDPR is a “small studio” despite having like >300 employees and being responsible for a AAA franchise than I wonder what’s your definition of a “big studio
 
Edit: it’s not 300 employees, it’s 800 employees  
Real small company, really don’t know how they survive
 
@AWGear  
Maybe it’s because they are the best unionized out of all the industries and therefore are able to get a better living wage  
Almost like ? Being unionized can get people better wages ?  
Ngl, seeing the amount of teachers strikes across the world, I got to hand it to teachers, they know how to stand up for their rights
 
Also I do take offense at Ubisoft and EA doing it but that’s not what this convo is about, it’s about CDPR and why they are a shit company who treat their workers like slaves and people should not praise them  
And yes, the entire video game industry treat their workers like slaves  
If you think that excuses it, you have brain worms or you really like the taste of boots

@Commune  
I did not refering to Rockstar being Indie studio or CD Project either but you love put words into people mouths in your strawmaning ways  
I was saying CDPR is smaller than massive corporations like EA. I know you commies have trouble with numbers but 300-800 is far less than over 9K (its less than Rockstar 2K too)
 
They barely can handle AAA title thats why they have such working conditions. But you are right we should focus on this polish studio than rest of industry especially giants in west, after all they have fans among people with ideology oposite to your, so this is unforgivable

@DeathCloud  
The topic at hand is CDPR, and why people shouldn’t stan them  
I don’t focus on Ubisoft or EA because that’s not the topic at hand  
It’s that CDPR is a bad company  
Just like EA Ubisoft and Rockstar(and I did mention rockstar in this discussion about their use of crunch in RDR2 and their other exploitation of workers but apparently that isn’t enough)  
Fuck I even literally said that the entire video games industry uses crunch time to exploit workers, just that CDPR is not different and that it doesn’t excuse them
 
They barely can handle AAA title thats why they have such working conditions.  
That’s not an excuse. There is never an excuse to force your workers to work like slaves  
Every Video Game Company deserves to be burned to the ground, you happy now ?

@Commune “Believe in”  
Uhhhh D00D, there is literally a fucking school for that shit, and you can directly trace from them the founding feminists of groups like NOW and violent radicals like Angela Davis and Assata Shakur and a clear cut plan for the destruction of western civilisation, you can’t get much more obvious than that!  
The only screwy part is how republicans will accuse random lefty groups also fighting against them and this social justice death cult of also being in on it, which just makes people like Paul Street, Jean Bricmont, Caitlin Johnstone, and the animal defense initiative (basically started by people expelled from PeTA) go “u WoT m8?”
 
 
@Commune It’s a real shame Sir-tech is no longer around, when they randomly received an ex-EA project manager and he tried to shift to permanent crunch, they threw him out! It’d be great to have some old industry voices like cdv’s Christina Oppermänn or Norman Sirotek to speak out on industry standard perpetual crunch. It’s kinda funny that due to congress being such tech-averse luddites, gaming has gotten away with returning us back to the coal(code?) mining days of the 19th century. For that matter, the bean counters always seem to focus on the wrong shit as to why this or that game fails requiring the next game to come from that studio to have everyone working ten times harder! Especially when it comes to crunch, any time you point out SSI never used it, or Looking Glass never used it, “HURRRR GUESS THAT’S WHY THEY’RE NOT STILL AROUND HUH” and you just gotta give up and choke a nigga at that point.  
Oh and I think with all these companies starting to use company branded debit cards, I think we’ll be seeing the return of “scrip” some time in the next 10 years too.
 
@Cyborg_pony Worse, or better? Wow, the new model even looks like him! Look at the chin action going on! It’s like if they put Trump’s head under Bane’s mask in the next injustice. They may as well give Raiden Doc Johnson hair so he can match that Bernie He-Man comic coming out…. LoL… No seriously! Comes out in May!  
(apparently it was the picture that was preventing me from posting? Weird!)  
If the artwork wasn’t so bad, I’d buy it, but those proportions and Bern man’s complete lack of chin just hurt. For once I wish Marvel was the one delivering a pandering comic, this is like mlp comic tier.  
What a bizarre duo to select for this, implying he and AoC are related. Wouldn’t superman and wonder woman be more appropriate? Cloak & Dagger if they wanted to show them being tight? See, this is why SJs are such a fucking joke, they don’t pay any ruddy attention to the source material whatsoever! It’s like when they put Trump’s words into Cobra Commander, COME THE FUCK ON, you actually have a perfect Trumpian character and he comes with his own Melania! (Destro and Baroness) Sweet crap on a southern cracker, SJs just embarrass the shit out of me. How do these fuckers actually remember how to breathe and talk at the same time?
 
On that note, hilariously enough I think Trump Khan kinda works, because if you notice his design is somewhat based on the old Legion of Doom wrestling duo, and Trump’s rhetoric takes many pages from Jesse Ventura’s run. This is ironically just taking Shao Khan back to his WWF roots! And you know what? If there’s a side plot to his story about smashing the fake imposter Mileena and all her fanboys into bloody red dust and bringing back Klassik Mileena, he really will be Making Outworld Great Again! FUCK FAKE KISSYLIPS POODLEFACE MILEENA, series was dead to me on mkX because of that. Shameless pandering to non-fans to bring in new blood.

Mortal Kombat 11 Injects Trump As Villain & Reviews Tank Over Politics & MTX
 
Looks like they’re getting hammered in reviews for their pandering.
 
:3

@Cyborg_pony  
Classic Get woke go broke going on here.

@Cyborg_pony
 
@Selaphiel
 
42% positive reviews on steam. I hope they noticed ^^

@AWGear  
Doubt it.

@Cyborg_pony  
It’s still bellow 50%. Probably the lowest rated MK game after reboot

Ten-year-old me would never have imagined that Mortal Kombat or Wolfenstein of all things would eventually be considered “politically correct”.  
You’re all completely nuts and high on red pills.Spit it out before it’s too late

Games didn’t get more politically correct, ’member Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy VII ? You just got older and need to stop watching SJW Cringe Compilations at work.

@Background Pony #E583  
You need to learn to differentiate real-life politics and fictional ones. Skyrim is technically political, but no one gives a shit because elves and Thalmor don’t exist.

@Scrabbleman  
Then why downvoting MK to hell and back ? You shouldnt be angry,Shao Kahn doesnt exist.The whole crux of that zombie that is GamerGate is getting angry at things that doesnt exist.You are outright lying when if you scroll up,you guys are getting your knickers in a twist over a fictional boss quoting a Reagan-era political slogan

@Background Pony #E583  
Because they are USING a slogan that was made in the real world and applying it to the lore of MK where it doesn’t belong. Its a blatant political statement! A political statement that is equating the president to some evil bastard overlord and pushing it onto the fanbase, who by the way, are pissed about this agenda pushing.

@Ainz Ooal Gown
 

 
Oh noes :-(

@Background Pony #E583  
And as for Metal Gear Solid and FF7? They at LEAST didn’t push it in your face and lambast you for your perceived opinion. They let the show and not tell! THAT is what makes a good story! Showing and not telling!

@Background Pony #E583  
“Oh noes” Stop being obtuse. This shit shouldn’t even BE in a game like MK at all. Its a fucking fighting game!

@Background Pony #E583  
Oh, blaming Gamergate? I thought we were done with this nonsense.
 
Also, I didn’t get involved with the above conversation. So good job shooting the messenger.

@Scrabbleman  
My bad  
@Ainz Ooal Gown  
The list of things you clowns “allow” (as if you had any authority on the matter,as if we need your authorization) on games are getting thinner days by days these days.You are merely the new censors,parading around as if you could dictate the content of a game and as a bonus ,you are easily triggered (remember that word) by the big muscle man on a fighting game making jokes surrounding a Reagan slogan.If we gave you one inch,you’ll capitalize on it and continue campaign to censor things you dont like  
Also “the poiltics are in your face” ? You’re a fragile snowflake if you unironically believe that,the Shao Kahn quips probalby ammout to less than 1% of the game experience yet there is already a shitload of YouTube videos by BigBoyFactsAndLogicWithAGlassOfWhisky bemoaning white genocide over a non canon ending and a couple of jokes.No one is more fragile and easily offended than a right wing channer gamer nowaday

@Scrabbleman  
They can’t. The reason why is it tore open back the curtain to expose them for how corrupt they were. That’s why they have to keep the narrative that it was only about hating women with the shitpiece Wiki article and silencing any talks on it.
 
It’s probably more likely for them to stop using a certain “N-word” to describe people that hate.
