🧵🧵 a small thread of clips from #dustborn so far. I played the game for 7 hours to try to understand its confusing narrative, but it really kept getting worse.

I don't understand how you can present a liar as a good person, but the main character has the worst main character syndrome I have ever witnessed.
"Look how smart we are!"
These people use "words" to manipulate. Even the good one has to "drug" her friend with her words.

The main character is so unlikable...
When you do an all shout playthrough of skyrim, it can be fun.

This however does not spark joy. I also did not use them later unless the game forced me to. It was too cringe to hear "LEAVE ME ALONE" and have this "work"....

I don't know who this game's age demographic is for.
Can someone tell me how a "hoax" is a thing a good person does?

Is a hoax ever okay? What is this game's message? why are we gaslighting a robit when there was a perfectly good story element, i thought we were going to use Eli to show that the kids were okay and grown up...I guess I was expecting too much
The main character lies and gaslights everyone to get them to attack the ginger barefoot Abby. At no point did she want to be the leader and the main character does actually lie and manipulate everyone, as the ginger claimed....
The moral of this scene: lie to cops, get them to shoot each other, and then encourage suicide so your secrets are safe.

This entire scene was INSANE and I have no way to shorten it because WTF?
This scene is insane. Some 40 year old titan biker woman was with the 20 year old who clearly has developmental issues, and Rufus Shinra could manipulate crowds the whole time to calm people down...

This dialog is wild, this isn't how human interaction works and I cant even suspend disbelief for this because it is so unnatural.

Also nipples. "lul arent we funny?!"

It amazes me how absolutely useless these twats are. You’ve got “perceived experts” yet you still need everyone else to make what you want?

Just go make your own studio with the money. Stop pulling stunts like this. People are over it. Your shitty writing doesnt sell. Companies are bloated because youre all useless, takes 10 people to do the job of 1 at ubisoft when you have a team of 30 all doing the job of 500.

Go away. Go make your own thing. And leave everyone else alone.

No one wants your shit. How do we all know? You admit it. Youre “losing ground” because what you make is softer than a freshly laid chipotle stool on the sidewalk in Seymour tx, august 12th 1936.

Make a good game. Earn the love, not beg for it.

But you dont want that. You want “validation”. And you want it now.

You hate gamers. You dont care what the issue is. And youll never get a dime from us.Image
Everyone is sick of the self aggrandizing and self Fellatio circle jerk goofball awards and dei committees.

Just screw off. Image
Drop the blogging and make a game. Image

🧵🧵🧵Want to know who could possibly influence rockstar games and GTA? I’m sure you all remember the articles floating around about GTA V randomly removing “transphobic” content, but of course leaving in every other “harmful joke” about everyone else…

But did you ever wonder who actually triggered that change?

It’s a group called OMG- out making games. This is directly connected to UKIE- a middle man between government/policy and entertainment. If you want to do business and possibly have a voice in parliament, and you have a UK location, you are practically forced to work with these individuals.

James Dodd runs UKIE’s DEI sector, works on OMG, and put his lame quote not only on Martin Tripp Associates website but front and center on Raise The Game pledge page, which is a DEI pledge.

Martin Tripp associates installs c-suite level people into companies. Their website is horrifying.

Do I think GTA is done for because of this? Normies will buy the crap out of it day 1- that’s all I know.

Do I think they’ll be reigned in and not allowed to make whatever joke they want? Absolutely.Image
Image
Image
Image
The group is a collection of DEI lovers and happily hops on whatever band wagon they can and I’m unsure how rocksteady had any money to fund them, but I’m sure they budget it in because a guy from rocksteady is actually on this board.

“Safe in our world” is exactly what it sounds like. Another money siphon.Image
Image
Image
Image
They’re very concerned over Meta’s changes :,)

They’ve also got some bogus awards to prop themselves up, which is a common tactic since about 2010~ it’s always been a thing but it became more aggressive then. Gotta have a bullshit participation trophy.

That’s also why people are big ass mad over the TRGAs, because it isn’t THEIR SIDE doing it.Image

I did that thing I do. A small 🧵🧵

So after seeing someone else found the linkedin for the guy hate crusading on @Asmongold for the crime of thinking people who harass an artist are stupid and lame (paraphrasing, probably), I did my thing.

Naturally I went to his linked in, then the company one. And there were some curious things.

So the sound guy isn’t just a sound guy, he calls himself a cofounder. Kind of misleading on twitter and I’m not sure why? Audio wouldn’t come before cofounder title……Image
Image
Image
They hired an advisor who is very heavy in the DEI. I wonder if he advised them to do something like this- be eager to misrepresent the current issues and complaints in gaming?

Either way, “consultants” continue to be the biggest waste of money to studios that exist. It once used to be a useful term, relating only to historians, or lawyers, or actual marketers. Now it’s just anyone with an extra immutable trait.Image
Image
Image
His website is a bit goofy……..personally I’d never hire someone with this as their……first impression, but I’d also never hire a consultant.

Turns out he’s a former journalist. Who could have ever seen that coming. Image

G🧵🧵If his name sounds familiar to you, thats because Senator Warner was exposed in the Twitter Files, released by Elon Musk and Taibbi.

Warner was part of the politicians and governments pushing platforms to censor certain accounts, despite those accounts failing to show a pattern of behavior that support his claims.

Warner, who is among the MOST WEALTHY of ALL the senate, was part of the intelligence committee at that time but he has held power since 2009. Though most of his wealth was amassed prior to politics, he has only grown his coffers since.

Currently, he oversees housing and urban affairs (Blackrock and Blackstone are very interested in this man, smile), intelligence, and a few other things. He was also the lead behind getting tiktok banned in America, which does remain a controversial topic.

I do not believe this man supports censorship in such a black and white way, but it is unclear how he forms his opinions around it. The only thing I do know, is he speaks from a place of ignorance here today.

In 2021, he aimed to reform section 230 of the communications decency act, which holds companies accountable for what is posted on their platforms, claiming the aim is to prevent hate speech, harassment, and human rights abuses. The ADL previously supported this and praised him for it.

Given this, there is a clear history between them, even if it is small, this causes concern. Why? Because he is now using a report from them that is based on misrepresenting data to make egregious claims. Less than 1% of accounts on steam engage in the sharing of "pepe the frog"- which is just a meme. It is not hate speech, it is not "right wing".Image
Image
Image
Image
Thanks to opensecrets, we can see some top contributors, interestingly enough, blackrock, visa, and mastercard are all listed as contributors. Image
Image
The ADL is an evil and overreaching "organization" full of rich people who fund extreme leftists, though it has come under fire in the past years thanks to other extreme lefties who have taken the side of the Palestinians who claim the organization is now "right leaning" and attribute growing attacks on THEM to the ADL "signaling it".

🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵A Small thread on The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) excessive spending for @DOGE to have fun with. Image
An "esports" org, NASEF,

was approved for 💰750,000 USD 💰

to create a "safe space" for gamers.

NASEF if a big pusher of DEI, as it is plastered all over their website, and has nothing to do with anti-terrorism. Image
Image
Image

Take This org, a mental health org, partnered with Logically Ai (british born "fact checking company" that works with leftist government)

was approved for 💰 669,000 USD 💰

to collect self reported data through google forms on "right wing extremism" in video games.

The individual spearheading this, Dr. Kowert, thought the deed so important, that she immediately dropped the subject entirely when funding ended to write a book on Taylor Swift fans.Image
