>>385815853
The way the characters are portrayed is clearly a joke.

Yea, pretty much every character in the game ranged from annoying to cringeworthy.
Also, reminder that Marcus is a canon weeb.

>>385816053
>The way the characters are portrayed is clearly a joke.
No, a joke is when you ridicule the characters. The characters are meant to fight evil corporations and a fascist Trump-like politician
I fail to see where is the joke when they are ''gathering secure confidential intel xD" to fight those evil corporations and Trump-like politician.
The characters joke about the ''corporate fascists xD" which is not an indication of parody because socialists think like this.

To all illiterate people: satire is when you make a joke about something that RESEMBLES reality but is not defined by current events

Watch Dogs 2 is 100% defined by current events (Trump, elections, corporation fascists xD, etc).
A satire can't be an irony of itself.

Cliché doesn't mean edgy

I will never play this game because of awful character design and retarded meme spouting

The gunplay in the first game was actually really good, even if everything else was terrible.

>>385815574
>It was a satire

Something about the honesty in their portrayal makes me think it was an unintentional satire, anon. The developers seemed like they legitimately thought DEADSEC was cool and not at all cringey.

>>385817652

Honestly, the only real problem with this is Aiden wasn't really a hacker obsessed with internet culture or anything, he was just a thief who had access to a smartphone app that let him do whatever he wanted with the city's OS. Also, he's an utterly humorless bastard in the game so the idea he would go around posting childish "amusing" memes is a little out of character.

I don't think you know what "real" hacking is. What you think is hacking has been illegal for over 30 years. There are still regular public hacking conventions in the US and, far from putting a stop to them, the US government attends them.

not like the main villain is some nu-male with a manbun and the game has tons of anti-jew redpills but you'd know that if you played it

>>385818280
Nice arguments there.
So the parts where Aiden tortures people, the part where you attend a sex slave auction, aiden's overall personality, the serial killer substory and shit, they weren't edgy, right?
But the part in watch dogs 2 where they spraypaint poop emoji on a billboard, or the part where they steal a robot and turn it into a quote-spewing meme factory is edgy as fuck bro.
Hell WD2 was so not-edgy that it felt weird as hell shooting people, I avoided combat as much as possible and mostly did shit using drones. None of the characters seem like the type to kill someone.

>>385819575
>dark=edgy nowadays
So that means every game is edgy.

>>385819731
That's essentially what edgy has meant for the past 7+ years on the internet, yes. Specifically a kind of forced darkness and taking itself way too seriously, like the shit in watch dogs. It's understandable that they went the total opposite route with 2. The sex slave auction in particular basically has no purpose except to be DUDE TITTIES LMAO, if i recall right you never even kill the guy in charge of it, the plot thread goes nowhere.

>>385815272
This seems like a game made by a bunch of 55 year old publisher suits who got together in a room to figure out what was hip and funky fresh these days

Why in God's name would I do that after the shit show that the first game was and the embarrassing cringey plot and characters in this one? You might as well ask me to flush money straight down the fucking toilet.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret, kid, the fact that adults aren't all that inclined to partake in stupid kid crap does not mean it some sort of indecipherable culture to them. They genuinely just don't care to get involved.

When they make these games it isn't just a bunch of "55 year old publisher suits" pulling shit out of their ass, it's based on cultural observation. You are not an enigma.

>>385815272

>>385822058
>Someone gifted me AC2
Cool, I pirated it, i think it was skidrow.
>Are you suggesting the trailers are a big ruse and it's not a cringefest with irritating characters
Kind of but your ability to withstand the characters might be different from mine, I only saw the first trailer for it and my first reaction was the same as yours, but upon playing the game they're not so bad, hell i actually enjoyed them. Even the guy with the meme-mask isn't that bad.
Then again i'm not an nsjw so i'm not triggered by things like blacks, gays and women.
fun fact: the female character doesn't do any fighting or hacking and is literally just their art girl, if this game was really such a progressive boogeyman then shouldn't she be in charge, kicking white men's asses?
>Dunno man, throw in twenty bucks and I'll give it a try
Just fucking pirate it, having programs like Origin or Steam installed is cucktastic.

Answer: he didn't.

>>385822557
This.
Still his storyline is dumb as fuck and doesn't mesh with the world he's created. It's the glitzy kind of cyberpunk and why the fuck would everything be so nicely maintained if universal income has made everyone lazy and useless?

>>385822557
>he didn't
Explain
>>385822686
I don't see how that matters or doesn't make sense.

>>385822412
>if this game was really such a progressive boogeyman then shouldn't she be in charge, kicking white men's asses?
You have to remember that /v/ has a tendency to exaggerate and strawman the fuck out of everything, especially what they don't like (which is all anyone talks about on /v/ these days). So while they might say that progressives wouldn't be satisfied with anything less than that, in reality I'm pretty sure the game more than progressive enough for most, because they're real people and not bra-burning man-killing stereotypes from Anon's nightmares.

>>385822881
>Explain
The thing that you think happened did not actually happen.

You're talking about The Last Night, I assume? He made some ill-advised comments in the grey past that came back to haunt him when his game was shown at E3. But since, you know, he's an indie dev, nobody could force him to do anything, and even if they could I don't think there was time to completely overhaul the game to reflect the exact opposite of what it used to. So I think he's either telling the truth when he says those old comments no longer accurately represent him, or it's just empty virtue signalling, but the stories of spooky SJWs making him take a sledgehammer to his labour of love with a gun to his head are tall tales with an agenda behind them.

>>385822881
>I don't see how that matters or doesn't make sense.
The whole conceit of his story is that universal income has made people lazy and worthless and they don't create anything, which doesn't gel with a beautiful cyberpunk city at all.
It matters because it's fucking stupid, regardless of your opinion on universal income.

>ill advised comments
There was nothing wrong with any of his comments. They were completely rational and even correct to an extent of how modern feminism is becoming a cancer to society. I highly doubt a man who was so passionate about showing this would flip flop and completely change the stance or message the game is making unless he was strong armed by co workers, or the journalism industry. Even the way they made a big deal out of his tweets show how ridiculous the media is. Pic related
>>385823627
Just because a large majority of the populace becomes lazy or incompetent doesn't mean corporations halt all of their production of their products. Automation solves the problem of even needing workers in the first place. It doesn't contradict itself at all

>>385825408
If you're continuously just going to tell people to fuck off when they explain to you how people function in the real world, you're going to end up in your own little bubble completely unable to function outside of 4chan. This is for your own good, Anon.

That's not even an argument from authority and I don't think you're following this conversation at all.

What specifically was wrong about his statements?

Only if he's right, which he's not.

great argument.

>>385828086
authority of the mob is still an authority. now, there might be another named logical fallacy that more accurately describes what you're doing, but that does not mean it is not a logical fallacy. i followed as far back as i needed to to respond to your post. and you have yet to address the points on their own merit, all you've done is say "he's worried about SJW boogeymen!" which is not dealing with his argument at all, and yet another type of logical fallacy.

>>385829536
I wasn't arguing against him. I was explaining that his subjective opinion doesn't hold any more weight than the subjective opinions of others and that it furthermore was an unpopular opinion and that is why it is ill-advised to be public with it.

>now, there might be another named logical fallacy that more accurately describes what you're doing
There is, or, there would be, if I was using it as an argument like that, which I am not.

I'm not going to get into the merits of feminism here.

>>385828651
Well first of all by proving modern progressivism attempts to silence all opposition, it kinda does prove it regardless if you think he's right.

Second of all nice dodging of the question. What us wrong with what he said?
