Dustborn - The Latest and Biggest DEI Flop to Date that No One Asked for!

Especially the whole spiel about how good and safe Europe is to move into

We really need to convince Europe that every single black person in America is entitled to refugee status there. After all, it was the British Empire, not the United States of America, who brought them here in the first place. I think basic justice would mean moving at least 250K blacks to Europe every year.
 
Bit ate, but someone did a rather solid review on Dustborn a few days ago:


Think it hits the main issues of the game pretty well. Agree? Disagree?
Agreed for the most part. Pax is an awful person and the devs did an awful job at making her likable and sympathetic. The whole empathy thing was very contrived and not earned at all. However, Noam had an artificial usefulness; being the only one who can calm people down since the only person with remotely good social skills is Theo (who the devs like to put in the cuck shed). Likewise, more often than not Sai isn’t happy to be there. She’s less a giant Golden and more an overgrown Chihuahua.

I still agree in that: they have no chemistry, everyone hates each other, the most likable (not sympathetic since he gave Pax far too many chances) is Black Justice Man, the designated good guys are evil and vice versa, and the writers have no idea how people talk, act, or think. Especially the part where characters oversimplify something to make it sound less appealing than it actually is. Egregious case of soillennial writing.

This video summarises the issue with this game very well. Basically, Norway has a funding agency for small indie game devs. This funding agency is run by dangerhairs and pronoun specials. To get funding you appeal to the sensibilities of the funding board. So you make a game like Dustborn. It doesnt matter if it sells, all that matters is that you get funding for the next quarter.

 
I've just watched Null's whole playthru since I'm not paying 30 bucks to play this, but man did I miss something or are the "main" villains (the ones with the woman leader, not justice) ridiculous and never explained? I don't understand what their deal is and they seemed kind of pathetic. Maybe I'm retarded or didn't pay enough attention. I did have it in the background while I was working on stuff.

Also, none of the big climaxes are good. Beyond the woke stuff, it's kind of hilarious how poorly written and unsatisfying everything is. Even when Theo dies and you yell that white child into the sea (which is also funny, he just gets BTFO), none of the pauses feel long enough, there's never enough impact. It all happens quickly and no one cares? Lol. Is this the best Norwegian taxpayer money could buy?

They don't have to care, it's just free money sucked out of the veins of the Norwegian people vampirically, to pay for things they don't want. That nobody in the entire world wants. For cancer. Because one of the definitive characteristics of cancer is called angiogenesis, where the cancer forces the host to grow blood vessels to feed itself.

they probably give an actual evil thing they do later but for most of the game no youre just supposed to hate the "puritans" because theyre called that and because they are analogues of neolib institutions in commiefornia as opposed to justice representing the federal institutions irl. and youre supposed to be biased against anything right of marx and thus see both these sides as different flavors of nazi. its why justice has more a christian americana aesthetic and the puritans more a neolib tech industry type deal.

side note theres this game showa american story. which i find funny as its kind of an anti dustborn in that a bunch of chinese guys just made a game about american and japanese stereotypes and mashed it in an alternate history where the main character has to take a bus trip across america in a world where america is a japanese colony rather than an african and jewish one. and despite the diversity and multiculturalism wont be seen as such because asians dont count and the former are just supposed to be buzzwords to hide that they just want to spite white people by making them live around rapists and murderers from the lowest countries on earth
i also find it funny because its weeby so josh still probably wouldnt like it and is still a hell for hm

I have to wonder what the fuck Denmark is doing differently than Canada and Norway. Denmark has a game fund (technically a film institute) and it has funded two great games being Inside and Deep Rock Galactic. I can't think of anything good that has come from the Canadian or Norweigan counterparts.
 
Now that Trump won again will they make Dustborn 2?
They really should. The plot could be that's revealed that former politician Dolan Drumph was the real real mastermind all along. At the end of the trailer, all what's left of the gang is surrounded by lots of old iluminati and bigoted problematic people, but it's shown that Theo was resurrected somehow with the same technology used on Cyber Floyd. Standing atop of a hill, he then looks at the camera and says: "I didn't died, I was just DustBorn", then he dusborns all over the enemies.

This sequel will do better, I swear bro! An all time peak of 100 players on steam!

If they aren't willing to do it, someone should do a parody version that truly mocks leftists instead of unintentionally doing so like the original.

Same in France with the CNC.

Sounds like backpedaling to me
Of course it's backpedaling. The game was such a shit show with it's unlikable main character, and laughable pile of stereotypes that it honestly kind of loops back around so far that it appears to be making fun of woke identity politics morons, and as a result not even their target audience liked it.

Same shit with that q-force gay spy cartoon thing that came out a couple years ago. The trailer was such an obviously pandering pile of checkbox ticking garbage, that even the LGBTQWERTY people got irritated/offended by it. Or even the trannies and non binary gender blobs that posted on reddit about how the traash character in the latest dragon age game and everything they did was fucking awful.

The game is also obviously radleft-leaning to the point where even normies can point that out.

You don't realize what that means. You don't realize how much lefty politics normies accept and glance over. You don't know how much of this bs normies tolerate. And Dustborn is just too much.

It's worse than that. Even the normal lefties don't like it when shit goes too far, hence the examples I gave. Looking at Dustborn as objectively as possible, in many regards it can be seen as making fun of the left. I don't know if you've seen anyone like Null here play it, but even futurisitic California and San Francisco are too "far right" for the main group of characters in the game, you know.. the areas that are so blue that republican votes may as well not matter, especially in 2016 when this shitty game started development? At one point when the characters are discussing their job to escort the only "man" in the group to freedom or whatever because he's got some amazing information that'll topple whatever the fuck, they loudly discuss how he's an icky man and can't participate in their conversation, they don't trust him, etc when he's standing 10 feet away in an otherwise quiet apartment even though he's the one supposedly paying them to drive his dumbass around. Later on they visit a mechanic, who has a jackstand fail and cause a fucking bus to land on them, but not a SINGLE person in the group knows how to use a fucking floor jack(which was also connected to wifi for some reason) because they're all "women", so they had to rely on the retard strength of the fat bitch with the braids?

This shit was too woke for the woke audience it was intended for.
