Nice to see people keeping their political leanings out of video games. Such a vibrant story too, with lines including:

1) I feel like you have to be pretty materialistic to go to college just for a job
2) Stab fascists!
3) Eff capitalism (saying fuc.k is offensive XD)
4) If you don't get away from your car I'm gonna run it over your head
5) I met God but he was an asshole
6) Bosses are bad
7) From each according to their ability

The plot twist is finally revealed and it amounts to NOTHING then the characters all get together and say "hey what are we going to do about this?" and the answer is to deal with it tomorrow THEN THE CREDITS ROLL AND THAT'S IT

It's trash, I'm sorry guys.

I'm only making the thread to help other people not make the mistake of buying a game that has a very strong and overt left leaning political stance.

The single antifa faggot was literally portrayed as a coddled hipster, and a buzzkill, you stupid god damned nigger.
The entire point of that section was to showcase Bea going to a college town to hang out at a party full of spoiled hipster trust fund babbies to take a break from a life full of actual responsibilities. But she just couldn't relate.

I'll give you this much, the game sucks. The gameplay is boring and consists entirely of basic, slow platforming mixed in with the occasional minigame which is scripted to always go one way, the story is stupid and culminates in an ending which is overall not pleasing in the slightest, and overall the only fun part of the game was the Demontower minigame - which doesn't really affect the story in any major ways.

But the porn is god tier.

I played undertale a month ago and was surprised at how much I actually enjoyed it, so I thought "hey maybe all this stuff I classified as Tumblr garbage and ignored is actually good!" So I bought into the woods and 15 minutes into it I turned it off with no plans to turn it back on. And I like to think I'm pretty liberal, but holy shit the sense of entitlement and whining demonstrated by the main character made the game unplayable.
>>
>>381516834
>game
Its basically a visual novel with minigames.
And Mae being a spoiled, whiny, entitled shit is a central part of her character that actually serves as fuel for conflict and character development. Which doesn't serve to make her any less fucking annoying for 9/10ths of the game, or make having to PLAY as the annoying bitch any less shitty, but at least the game is self aware.
I only stuck with it cause the music is nice and the town is comfy.

I liked it, but I'll also admit to being a massive cunt of a child in my late teens early 20s, who hung around with my massive cunt enabling friends doing similar things; making a grunge band with no intent of playing anywhere, breaking shit, etc. Then my dad died among other things and I was forced to grow up rather quick. Still had a lot of fun and never regret it though, still friends with some of them to this day. So I had quite a few things to relate with for just about all the characters. Also got a boner for all the late autumn colors. Ending was pretty shit though.

I mean it is kind of obvious just from one glance that Deus Ex or MGS will have a more serious and nuanced approach to political issues compared to a cartoony talking animal game

Not everyone's political views are great (a lot of people have half baked ideas) but to say people should keep them out of games is dumb

Animal Farm? The talking animals isn't why the game isn't as nuanced.

I mean just making shit like this which just pushes an obvious political agenda is pretty bad. I'd agree that people shouldn't keep politics out of games, but this shit could hardly be described as a work that wants to draw meaningful discussion. For what it's worth I'd prefer people keep this sort of rubbish out of any creative medium.

That's fine. That's what discussion is for and putting these sorts of things in games helps opens up discussion and makes things interesting. Instead of saying why they disagree though people are quick to say "BAN THIS FILTH"

No, saying that the world should work in such a narrow minded way is childish at best and tyrannical at worst. And I was talking about Deus Ex, Kojima is a well know hack that got away with his dribble since most of his audience where teens.

In todays political climate that even your toaster has an opinion on politics I can safely say that I want less politics in my escapism .

There are many excellent games that have no political leaning. There are several other excellent games that do take a side, or at the very least examine political philosophies.

What makes it acceptable to discuss politics in a video game? What's the earliest example of it being done well? Is there a game older than deus ex that does it?

>Putting these sorts of things in games helps opens up disccusion

This is exactly what I said I don't like about it? It doesn't draw out political attention at all. Non-shitposters aren't criticisizing the politics themselves, they're criticisizing how the politics are presented. It's not presented in a way that draws meaningful discussion.

1: The whole point of this game is that the main character is basically mentally challenged.
2: Never said that, they said "no fascists at this party" and it was some dumb college liberals you'd never meet IRL and even then that character is shown to be an asshole
3: Never said that, I think, and again the character is mentally ill you tard

>>
>>381512991
you really don't understand what "keep politics out of video games" means if you agree with this post.

video games are a type of art. It's impossible to put yourself into a piece of art you're making without also putting parts of your upbringing, your beliefs, and as a result, your politics, in. These perspectives are what allow unique, fun experiences to come into being.
the problem comes when outside groups decide to interject on work they have no part in. To call a piece of art "problematic" and call for its erasure.
THAT is forcing politics into video games
>>
>>381522087

>>381521942
The hell are you talking about. Why should video games have to do this? Many great political stories are obviously meant to propagate an opinion, this doesn't make them flawed for it. Its obvious that something trying to push a specific viewpoint would give a definitive message.

>>
>>381522580
in what way are video games not art. You would have to have an incredibly narrow definition of art to think otherwise.
>>
Generally, when you write things that have any sort of political leaning, you should approach it much like an unbiased reporter would; The cool part is that you're writing the story, so you can present as many angles as you like. Ideally the end goal is that the reader's mind is broadened to different ways of thinking about a conflict.

In the end, no matter what you do as a writer you're going to be drawn to things that relate to your own personal politics so there's that, but I do believe that as long as your personal politics are presented as the politics of a character or characters there's nothing wrong with that. Crafting the story like a fairy tale and hitting the reader over the head with a contrived moral is kid stuff; But it's not a stretch to believe a college dropout would think like this main character thinks.

The ending sounds like bullshit though, so there's that.

>>381522412
Most great political stories have people discussing the politics in the stories and the context around it. The way something like 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 present their politics has people looking at what's within. This game does not do that. Basically what I'm saying is that shitty games should not exist.

The difference is that conservatives leave their politics out of the work place on principal. The left has weaponized gaming, it's being taught at any university that offers a "game dev" degree. Look into required classes. Why the fuck does a game dev need to take feminist ideology of the 21st century and a history of lgbtbbq rights in western countries?

Game development is getting much easier, and students in highschool and earlier are taking mandatory programming classes now. We're going to see some great indies that allow you to fight as Nazi scum, or play as a border guard and eliminate mexicans. Or play as a pirate and sink refugee ships before they reach the coastline.

I don't know what specific program you're talking about, but many colleges require those sorts of classes for basically all degrees. It's not game development specifically.

>>381527160
Those classes are easy as shit. You can BS them so easy.

General ed is not a problem. The hard classes are the ones required for your major

Trump IS a commie, you dickwad. Communism is all about forming a pseudo-monarchic totalitarian dictatorship with centralized economy by riling the bottom-class degenerates to fight a class war for you. This is exactly what Trump did and is doing.

If the game push forward to January of the following year we might've gotten answers to those points, they chose a strange place to end it.

Games that observe a clashing of political ideals without pushing the player into taking one side nor presenting any of the ideologies in a blatantly negative light (no matter how absolutely objectively bad some may be) is perfectly fine and there are many of them. Such a presentation is the kind of thing you could only have in something where you get to pick and choose the factions you roll with.

Sure enough, games like Grand Theft Auto and Elder Scrolls do well enough to not force your character into anything, and they either present every side as stupid with a few positives mostly coming from the individual rather than the ideology (everyone and everything in GTA being a caricature), or just make them very generic without a direct relation to real-world political views and picking a side is up to you (Stormcloak vs Imperial).

A game that "is political" comes with the implication that it is simply going to push the agenda of one perspective and call all the others dumb and evil and racist or some shit while completely misrepresenting them. Sure enough, many recent "political" games do just that, and it's usually pushing some cultural marxism bullshit.

I think Skyrim is a bad example of how to make the player care, without alienation or apathy. The Stormcloaks are painted as a butch of racists (despite races being inherently different from one another and justification for being so) and the Imperials painted as the "man" that need to be taken down a notch. Not to mention the streamline depiction of Skyrim's culture gives you little reason to care about preserving it.

It's funny.
Without capitalism they wouldn't be able to make this game. Not to start yet another "political debate" but hipsters need to start appreciating all the good shit they take for granted.
