Sweet Baby Inc. and the Steam Curator Group Conspiracy - The company that is responsible for the diarrheic video game writing.

[Bear Powers]

I don't actually know if SBI or another similar company had anything to do with the game but I figure this is a good enough thread for this - I was somewhat hopeful and optimistic when I heard about Subnautica 2, even after Below Zero. I mean, the tide seems to be turning, even if slightly, right? Checked out the steam page for it, began watching the trailer, promptly put the game on ignore after a short number of seconds. I don't know why I should have expected anything different.

I still don't get it. Is Lara meant to be underage in the reboot? I don't ever remember anyone mentioning that at the time.

No, she's in her early 20s if I remember correctly. Fresh out of university.

Fun fact: the actress is 18yo or else its illegal, meanwhile the actually underage, under 10 kid getting groomed into getting neutered and turned into a tranny/pooner is somehow not being abused, hope this helps and that that twitard does a flip.

Remember that Berries and Cream whiner on the Unknown 9 community forums that whined about racism and bigotry winning? Well now he got a response from one of the Unknown 9 devs whining about it too.

Oh so now that's not cool, after over a decade of getting people on the other side cancelled now its a bad thing...

Once again it was you fuckers bitching that game characters didn't look like a morbidly obese hamplanet and instead looked "unrealistic", ie: like a mid instathot at best. It was also you shit sperging about cinematic games being better and calling everybody who complained about lack of gameplay or coherent writing a megahitler.

I like how in the comments, any time someone is asked for an example, they give the same one or two. Almost like it was a problem that didn't occur in 99% of horror films.

 

[cybertoaster]

it seems that 'surprise! We made it shit to teach you a lesson' has become a marketing strategy.

WAS, this thing has been going on for a while, I would say since around the TLOU1 DLC which was shit but it was about teen lesbians so if you complained you were a nazi. TLOU2 went even further then excused itself with "revenge bad" as if that couldn't be made in a far more tasteful manner which would also have delivered the message in a much better way, but that takes actual talent instead of being a prissy shithead social climber like cuckman is.

What you're seeing with joker 2 bombing is this strategy finally going completely to shit, it was always unsustainable and it rarely worked but then again leftists have created massive disasters that killed millions with their retarded beliefs so this isn't news really.

 

[Looney Troons]

All of these talentless DEI fucks cope the same. It’s always “muh storytelling” and “muh characters”. Have you faggots ever considered, I don’t know, writing a fucking book or story instead of wasting years of your life making bad video games?

Probably. Unknown Worlds doesn't have that many employees, and the ones who wrote Below Zero were contractors as well. The usual types too, when looking at the staff roll.

Heck, one of them is from the same area as SBI, but "founded" her own company instead. Being generous here since it looks like it's always been a 1-woman affair for almost 10 years now, and rarely ever worked on a game for more than 1-2 years.

This argument always boggles the mind. If you're shit at your job, why should I still have to purchase your product? You are a bad game developer and you deserve to be treated as such. If you weren't a bad game developer you would take steps to work for a different studio making not bad games, not piss and moan about how your livelihood is being affected. No one is going on Twitter to tell you to help me keep my job if I sucked at it, so why should I extend that benefit to you?

 

[ZMOT]

At some Game locations in the UK, it was given away with EVERY purchase, and Walmart in the US was selling it for $0.79.

not even the worst. apparently some copies of TLOU2 were given away with fucking xbox controllers (at no additional cost iirc) just so they could get rid of it

The flipside to this is, Shadow Gambit (not recommended) has gameplay that appeals so much to me that, despite being involved with SBI, I might end up buying it (or at least pirating it).

check next fest or steam tags. isometric stealth is one of the few genres indies can produce with their budget (even mimimi wasn't that big of a studio really, AA tops).

Most indie games don't do well and have lower player counts they also have tiny dev times and budgets and nobody cares if some random indie game is infested with ideology, left or right, and fails because most will fail and it's not about ideology. Big dev games are a different story they have fans invested in the IP's, and platforms everyone sees to spout say wildly retarded things from and actually be noticed.

also skip to 3:43 and 5:26. basically applies to vidya too.

this meme made them BIG mad. check out this batch of grade-A cope in response:

they once again missed the point. every single one of the female-centric followups sucked DICK, regardless of context

Ubi flops all the time without it being DEI.

Here’s one more!

 

[Soi Woh Jak]

I think this encapsulates DEI cocksuckers better than intended. They think they're so important, talented, skilled and totally deserve employment and nepotism meanwhile they can't even spell stake correctly despite being in the first world. It mildly infuriates me cause I'm from the third world and despite these people being so coddled and privileged, they can't even spell properly. Utter waste of resources.

If it wasn't important why didn't they make pretty characters to lure in the morons who think it is

I can't help but laugh with the last of us one, as its literally "man dies, women most effected".

Nobody cares about books so they wouldn't get the satisfaction of ruining someone else's passion, which is the dopamine hit they're really after.

It's even dumber because they keep saying '[man]'s story concluded in previous game' as if Nathan Drake didn't get his happily ever after at the end of every Uncharted game, only for them to trot him out for another sequel because Uncharted was the only reliable franchise Sony had for a long time.

By this logic Resident Evil should have concluded with the first game, yet they're still bringing back a progressively weirder and weirder looking Chris Redfield 20 years later.

 

[Bonesjones]

FF15 deserves a full-length documentary detailing what a catastrofuck that project was. For everything else bad I have to say about it, at least FF16 was functional and made sense.

Squares project mismanagement is so bad, they managed to churn 3 games out of the resources of 13 because they kept changing the story making old CGI cut scenes and assets redundant. They lost the plot with the MMO money and never made a good game again.

Right? Sequelbaiting is something that movies do. Games more often than not are meant to be one and done, even in long running series, which is why games usually have the dumbest retcons because a character that most of the fanbase loves gets killed off so they pull the dumbest shit out of their ass to say "uuuuh actually that guy survived." How many times was a Yakuza game supposed to be "Kiryu's final sendoff?" I'll tell you right now, every single fucking one since 2. They even made him to be dying of cancer in the latest one but I bet that he'll have a miracle recovery in 9.
