"nobody wants to play a game where everyone wins"

Majority of games are literally curated achievement simulators

You'd think a guy who worked on fucking Halo in its heyday would know about co-op games

Composer, doesn't understand jack shit about what made those games successful.

I think competitive pvp games are not the majority of the industry. I also think that this only really seems to apply to shooters, and I think I could get even more granular by saying shooters targeted at dudes, because it doesn't really apply to the Overwatch community for example, it doesn't apply to the FGC (anymore) and it doesn't apply to Splatoon, all are pretty competitive. It applies to the dude shooters for masculine manly boys that break their controllers.

Oh it's the guy who got run out of Bungie after decades of public prominence for being such an insufferable piece of shit

It's so funny this idea that the more left it is the more everyone wins. Like remind me what you had to do to unlock Darth Vader without paying for it in that Star Wars slop game? Gamers naturally intuit egalitarian ethics because they hate P2W and censorship. What are we doing here? Nobody thinks the gameplay loop of private health insurance is playable.

Imagine if you could allow noobs to leave your ranked lobbies and you got prestigious skins at a certain ELO.

At this point it is fucking Gulag for people pretending gamers are some kind of single minded and on top conservative hive mind. BG3 did so damn well and I don't think because of the genre but what a piece of art it was. I mean it is not really woke I guess? But people talking nonsense like this pos would for sure call it that because "how dare you let people choose queer romance".

These days I don't enjoy talking about my love for gaming because of assholes branding "gamers" pretty much as incels.

I fucking hate how political games are these days! Why can't we return to the era of non-political games, like Final Fantasy 7?!

Some of the most popular games have been shit like League of Legends.

Nobody wins playing that shit, you just lose, the more you play it the more you lose.

At the same time Minecraft is a game where you literally have cheats built in with easy access, so that everyone can win.

Then you have shit like Peth of Exile which is for neurodivergent people, because they know we all broke so it's free, but they milk liberals to fund the project for everyone. For some reason I also think Trotsky would be a PoE addict while Lenin would be Minecraft enjoyer and I imagine average lol player to be Mussolini

What games is this guy referring to exactly where "everyone wins"

I unironically want "strand game" to be an actual widespread genre instead of some goofy thing.

Gamers need to participate in distant jolly cooperation.

Toby Fox like

True competitions are constructed in such a way as to make the game as fair as possible. Referees are put in place to prevent unfair tactics. Rules are changed when they advantage some teams over others. And when done effectively, camaraderie and entertainment are maximized, because that's the point of playing the game. Competition abhors unfairness. Capitalism, on the other hand, is designed to produce unequal outcome, to build monopoly, to rig the rules to favor one at the expense of the rest. Competition is only present (in distorted form ofc) in the early stages of capitalism.

Most self identified "gamers" have got to be young men, right? No shit they're going to skew conservative

Meaningless word salad. If you think this is poignant you are genuinely dim.

Guy made one good game soundtrack once and then decided he was gaming jesus or some shit

Lol I've been playing through Kingdom Hearts again. "My friends are my power"

nobody?

someone tell this guy about cozy games, they might change his life

Games where everybody wins?

But I Only Play Single Player Games

and Monster Hunter which is cooperative

I play online matches on Pokemon sometimes but I don't count competitive Pokemon because Pokemon preaches that losing is okay as long as you have fun and learn from the experience. Also there is a high chance the person I'm beating is a child so lol

People literally get upset if you don't get the good ending where everyone wins

I wish he’d choke on a chicken bone already.

You'd think a guy who worked on fucking Halo in its heyday

well there's your problem.

Some people never played House as a child and it shows

I don't want games where everyone wins either, i just want games where chuds lose.

People don't like triple A games because they're slot machines, with dark patterns to manipulate your emotions to make purchases in their store.

The store is now the first aspect of the game they design these days, meaning the game itself is a secondary thought.

Oddly enough Indie games are thriving, and are often woke.

People who claim they don't like it when everyone wins want everyone to agree with them, yeah big surprise

A true gamer never complains, they are too busy playing good games. This clown is no gamer.
