That's funny because you have the choice to not play this or any other game. You also have the choice to go make your own game if you don't like how someone else has made theirs. You have a lot of choices. You can choose if you want to look at this picture of a pig shitting on it's balls or not. I bet you'll look
I agree with everything except the ad hominem.
There isn't even a personal insult in there. You logic nerds just love using debate pervert language
ad hominem on my nuts, idiot
Say the line bart
You want a button to say the n word? I literally don't know what the fuck you're saying here, what the fuck is an "alignment"
The game is undeniably fun to play, but many games tend to have agendas behind them, even if these aren't necessarily negative ones. In terms of Sony, the company isn't particularly known for its moral stance, and they choose to include content based on what is popular or mainstream at any given time. If the N-word were mainstream, it'd probably be included in the game.
Even whining about "agendas" is an agenda. Your agenda. Demanding that things somehow not have an "agenda" as you see it is just whining for a status quo that is so numbingly comfortable that you don't notice it in your bubble world.
Whiny "nonpolitical no agenda just give me choice" nerds like you trying very hard not to think of something racist for more than 5 minutes:
Wow. You just discovered what capitalism is. Congratulations. I know you people always recommend “basic economics” to leftists but I’m glad you finally had the time to read about it.
I think it has an agenda, even if it isn't a terrible agenda, it is still an agenda. I won't tell anyone how to write their own novels, but I personally think novels should be open and give the reader the ability to choose their own alignments. We have that capability and I think it would make novels better, but writers don't wanna do that. That's why novels are better than other types of media: choice.
GIve Yourself Goosebumps was ahead of its time
i read the shit out of choose-your-own-adventure books as a kid, no shade
This doesn't make sense and it dishonestly misrepresents my assertions.
you clearly have the media literacy of a brick wall, and i don't plan to educate you on the thought-terminating disinterest of reducing video games to narrative choice. like are you fucking daft, or are you too much of STEMlord to actually understand how narrative works? in short, i don't care about your nonsense assertions, you are like this pig shitting on its testicles
You don't care, yet, you read it, and passionately replied. Mission failed, successfully. Good job.
crawl back to reddit you sniveling dork, holy fuck
As usual the "nonpolitical" whiner's own politics are unspoken but obvious status quo assertions and anything that makes them feel vaguely uncomfortable is an unfair tyrannical woke narrative.
i want to inject your noggin with the knowledge and work required to make even a shitty jam game and watch it pop like an egg in a microwave
I'm a CS student. No need.
Your head has already exploded
So you're already a fucking moron who needs his little computerized bubble to actually have an even mildly useful thought that wasn't already 90% pre-coded for you. Got it.
What the fuck are you talking about you fucking dork
Are you mad that there's a rainbow flag in the game or some shit
Smug and dense "nonpolitical" liberals try to respond to hostility without implying their opponents are mentally ill challenge. Difficulty level: IMPOSSIBLE
Got rid of 'em for now.
Even whining about "agendas" is an agenda. Your agenda. Demanding that things somehow not have an "agenda" as you see it is just whining for a status quo that is so numbingly comfortable that you don't notice it in your bubble world.
I know where this goes. Your type tend to want to do some grimdark murderfucking in, say, a Spider-Man game and want that to be recognized and rewarded because you're the most special Main Character.
No. Fuck you. Just write some one-handed edgy prompts in AI Dungeon. I hear premium's pretty cheap these days.
People used to pay me for grimdark murderfucking spiderman short stories. Im very glad these people exist, paying me 300 dollars for a 1000 word short story.
Shit how do i get into that? I have writing samples
Go to reddit.com/r/guroerotica and post said samples while advertising yourself as doing commissions. Pretend to be a woman from Venezuela or Ukraine or some other country the reddit hivemind knows exists and is going through stuff.
Lol
It's Spiderman...he has an established alignment. I don't know what you are on about.
Why does ever game need to be some open world RPG bullshit? Why can’t you have a fixed story and a character with a fixed set of choices and beliefs? And even then, game devs will cater to you nerds with MUH CHOICES!!! You people are just upset that they nudge to you to a certain direction and that’s there’s obviously a “correct choice.” Just fucking go against it if you care so much holy shit. If you end up a shitty villain, you probably deserve it, but so what?
If you want unlimited choices go play a TTRPG
That might require friends and the ability to be tolerable for a few hours
We really need more games where you can choose the nazi alignment, it would make games better but the studios don't wanna do that
