Those people grind my gears a bit.
Unexplained diversity and millenial Californian values in a medieval fantasy setting would probably annoy me more, simply because I'm probably looking at something in the fantasy genre as an escape.
Both are vomitous, but in a traditional fantasy setting I at least expect something that respects its own authenticity in terms of worldbuilding and such, which is simply incompatible with Wokeism.
The first, because I'm more likely to accidentally buy it and waste a few hours on it.
Final Fantasy has vehicles.
No it doesn't, they wouldn't fit at all. Some of its sequels do because their worldbuilding allows for vehicles.
Unexplained diversity is worse because retards will think it's how things have always been whereas most people can realize that the latter is hyperbole.
Those sound like they're basically the same thing to me.
I think the latter. It shows the dev has an agenda to sell. In the case of the former, they're just hedging their bets and playing it safe.
@Raging Capybara always misses the point of everything because he only pays attention to the title in bold letters like a consoomer he is.
Probably because it was on TV and a bit different. Misunderstand me the right way when I say that the show was like Twin Peaks for teens. It was a generally light hearted network tv-show with a monster of the week, some sappy romance(that thankfully got better once Angel got his own show that I refuse to watch) but as expected there is nothing gratuitous in it. Standard stuff. PG13. But it also has a couple of events that doesn't happen in shows like that and for millenials that probably hit them hard and left an impact. That's why I call it Twin Peaks for teens.
I've spergposted about this exact topic with respect to Far Cry 5 and the politics of it. I'd rather have something that is aggressively political but has something interesting to say about it than something that's empty.
I can see where you're getting at with this statement. Let me say this: there's nothing wrong with having strong, female characters in video games. Samus from Metroid, Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, Bayonetta, several Street Fighter characters, Joanna Dark from Perfect Dark. These are just some playable female characters I can think of within the video game medium that are popular and well-liked.
or anywhere in between (Commander Shepard, Mass Effect series.)
The former because it feels like a lost opportunity to make more cool cultures instead of just sticking everyone into fantasy europe. The MMO Guild Wars, obviously not the tip-top of writing, made its own fantasy africa and gave them all these different countries on this continent. Even giving explanations why there's so common in the europe-equivalent.
Nah pretty sure Catler will be down.
GW2 era lore on the world of Guild Wars glossed over anything that would be even VAGUELY unacceptable years ago. Now Anet would rather boof battery acid than offend a single soul. I have no idea how they'll handle Cantha since it heavily featured chinese culture and I'm pretty sure NCSoft will get furiously asshurt if they say anything remotely positive about china.
I had an Xbox One controller once, but it would mysteriously keep blue screening my PC. It connected ok but within the next few minutes it would kill it. Went back to the caveman Logitech controller and decided wireless controllers were a mistake.
No.
I don't know anything about those characters but what direct connection is there between their good qualities and feminism, and if it's true, is Rainbow Brite actually worth the societal poison of feminism?
Peach was playable and the best character in SMB2 too, that's not woke. You're stretching woke to mean "women in fiction doing literally anything aside from being pregnant, cooking, and cleaning".
