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

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Pretty sure Dustborn's shit is supposed to be genuine; I've seen enough woketards and similar genuinely act like the characters in the game are "super relatable and sympathetic", and... let's just say that the characters act a bit too much like some people I know. Besides, parody requires there to be some level of self-awareness, and as stated, Dustborn has absolutely none.

What's even more fucked is that the story does end up showcasing just how retarded the whole "anarchist philosophy" is. The whole "capitalism bad" schtick results in a bunch of hippies that can't sustain themselves having to make a lot of compromises just to live, the "la resistance" crap is plagued with issues and problems related to support, funding, manpower, etc., not to mention a bunch of other shit I can't even remember off the top of my head. And yet, despite all of this, the game and community still tries to insist wokeshit is the better idea, using right-wing strawmen - that still end up looking significantly more sympathetic than the MCs - as targets for whatever the game wants.

The game could've been a parody is there was any self-awareness; problem is, there was none.
I can't exactly blame people for thinking it's satire though. The bad guys are literally called "The Authority" or something like that.
 
There's that, as well as the MC hating robots not because of "prejudice", but because she can't manipulate them into being her slaves. Since she can't control them, that means she views them as evil.

Again, no self-awareness. It almost comes across as a parody, given the game openly admitteding that the woke are trying to eliminate/replace white people and MC's abuse of everyone including her friends. Also, the fact that her powers supposedly rely on her "empathy"; saying she has a lack of empathy for others would've worked significantly better... Wasn't the MC using her powers to steal from people constantly before the events of the game? Because I'm pretty sure that comes up at least once.
One of the most brilliant scenes I remember is the They Live fight scene where the two blue collar chads fight for way too long for an absolutely retarded reason instead of uniting to save the human race.

The character from Dustborn will steal from those blue collars and think she goes against the system.

Sometime in the last decades the media lost even the ability of telling even a basic rebellion story. It's never about self sacrifice because only men should kill themselves for a goal, and they must be in the back lines.

The "both sides are bad" went from a poignant truth about history to an intentional blackpill in media of why you should always stick to the establishment as long as it supports the correct ideas. It's how you have hordes of angry people doing nothing besides try to spread their misery.

Par for the course for the woke, really; right-wingers are supposed to be this ultimate-yet-vague-and-faceless evil that has to be killed, no questions asked. Hell, there was one wokeshit game that got released a while back that the devs outright stated that they didn't give the main villain a face because - I swear I'm not making this up - "people might find the main villain attractive".

Alternatively, the woke can only repeat the same outlandish talking points over and over, with little variation; i.e., all villains must be Trump, like in Guild Wars 2 or Back to the Dawn. Or vague statements about capitalism/"eat the rich".

You can't leave us hanging like that, share some horror stories.

Former childhood friend of mine started buying in to all the wokeshit, and started insisting that anyone that followed Trump was clearly "brainwashed". Someone had to call the cops on him once because he began screaming at people for not getting the Covid vaccine... even if said people had very legitimate health concerns about it. Notable in that he's a proud furry.

Old lady neighbor is a proud woketard; can't stop propagandizing pro-abortion and left-wing crap, like insisting that "nobody needs guns" and that "we should let the government protect us"; bear in mind, my local town has been dealing with an influx of what is either illegals or at least rude Hispanics and kleptomaniac Chinese for a bit, now, along with a number of druggies and loons. Old hag's even made some threats against my family because I don't support her views.

Had a fag at my library once, years ago, running around and harassing people about fagshit; something to do with gay rights or something, I can't remember.

Had a pair of former co-workers at my old store that were notably woke; one was a dangerhair that kept getting "triggered" if you got too loud next to her... and was hard of hearing. Another one was a tranny that kept wearing dresses to work and had some ridiculously edgy handle he insisted on being called by. Dangerhair was alright, admittedly, but I wasn't all that fond of the fag.

Had one fuck yesterday at my store, screeching about how Christians were "fascist" and how my store was supporting terrorism against Muslims or something, idk. I think he tried to post a video about it online.

There's at least a few more horror stories that I can't think of off the top of my head, currently.

EDIT: Added a bit to the second part. Out of curiosity, what's the most horrifying one, you guys think?

@wtfNeedSignUp: I think the dissonance is because the woke don't actually care about making anything better; from what I can tell, they genuinely only want to make everything worse and ruin it for all. I know some of them have had a rough time and want to take it out on others - the former friend I mentioned above got bullied HARD in school for literally no reason - but a lot of the other woketards are either just evil or plain idiots... and there's a not-insignificant overlap between the different groups.

@Scream Aim Fire Yea, I dealt with some woke assholes in past jobs and when I went to Meetup groups (Meetup went full woke after Trump won the first time). A lot of them are insufferable cunts.

In the Prowrestling industry, it's mostly evil for the sake of getting something in return. While you got current wrestlers like Cody Rhodes virtue signaling to stay relevant to the hardcore woke wrestling fans, most of the older wrestlers like Mick Foley and CM Punk went the far left woke route to protect their skeletons and attack people they hate. You got assholes like Chelsea Green and Mickie James embrace this woke stuff to go after coworkers or people they hates, hoping they destroys their enemys lives with help from the smarks and simps'. JDfromNy is one of the biggest incels in the Wrestling Podcast scene, but now he's rebanding himself as a sjw-feminist ally so female wrestlers will stop blocking him.

The ones that are more idiotic think they're doing the right thing until they get fucked over by their fellow lefties. A few of them wake up, and realize what they supported was bullshit.

Sad. I have a friend from childhood that's basically like a brother. Went to visit him and he was just about full retard. I was able to change the subject but it's sad. I'm not sure our relationship can survive this shit.

That's what happened on my end as well; guy lost it because I disagreed with him on Trump getting impeached. Damn shame; he was even a member of my writing club AND DnD crew, and we had a lot of fun.

But anyways, to not get TOO off-topic; has there been any news about this game as of recent? Any word of DLC, or updates adding new content, or what?

What kind of shithole do you live in? I would just move out by that point if I were you

Its almost like they don't want a rebellion to happen...

Should've started with that, is he at least a straight furry or ridiculously gay like most of them?
Old hag's even made some threats against my family because I don't support her views.
Call the chollos and changs, let them know she has a safe in her house or something. Lets see how woke she is after the enrichment.
Another one was a tranny that kept wearing dresses to work and had some ridiculously edgy handle he insisted on being called by
All the female characters from shitty webcomics of the 00's drawn by edgelords have come to life in the form of these trannies. Guess he used to draw those or at least was a fan.
how my store was supporting terrorism against Muslims
The hell kind of store is that? you make qurans made of ham?
they genuinely only want to make everything worse and ruin it for all
Nah want money and attention, see these talentless idiots with this shitty game? thanks to wokeness they get free grant money from the already over-taxed europeans and free publicity from the euro state media to promote this abortion of a "game". If it wasn't for wokeness they would be flipping burgers somewhere.
the former friend I mentioned above got bullied HARD in school for literally no reason
Was he a furry back then?
A few of them wake up, and realize what they supported was bullshit.
They didn't wake up its just that the woke fad wearing out and they can't get anything from being woke anymore. You see, nobody actually roots for the underdog, they only do it when the underdog has stopped being "the underdog" and its "an up and coming" type, you get me? they only care about someone or something when its popular, when they can get some positive feedback from caring or pretending to care. They don't really care about injustice unless its about them, never seen any wokes volunteering for anything, even the ones that screech about the environment do nothing to lower their carbon footprint, the commie ones still buy overpriced branded crap made by slaves in a sweatshop.

Their objective is all-gain and no-pain, they do nothing and want everything.
 
The main bad guy is called Axiom. You're literally fighting a fundamental truth.
Feels over reals.

They hyperfocused on language for some "power of words" retardation. In the end they really do think words, perception, control reality by defining it. I remember the game had a dream sequence or flashback talking about how the proto-language controlled reality itself. You, Pax, and the orphan defeat Axiom (who was rattling on about how there's only the objective truth) by channeling the Echoes into a super death scream or something.
 
:story: This shit's deader than dead.
to be fair not every game needs post-launch content or microtransactions, it never struck me as a platform to make perpetual money.

Almost a shame, really; this game is so hilariously blatant on the political pandering that I kinda wanted to see these freaks dump more money in this thing just to watch them fail even harder. I mean, Suicide Squad and the Saint's Row remake had DLC, and we all got to watch them flounder about as the sunk their companies.

As for the Off-Topic stuff...

What kind of shithole do you live in? I would just move out by that point if I were you


I actually live in a smaller town out in the south; I'm not going to give my exact location, but... let's just say that the idea of "smaller towns being immune to wokeshit" isn't all that true. I've been looking around at finding a new place to live, but there's nowhere to go, currently; most of the housing I've found has been taken over by immigrants and druggies, and I'm still job searching. That, and my family lives here, and they're needing some help.

@cybertoaster My friend wasn't always a furry, no; far as I can tell, he didn't really get into the fandom until around 2018 or so, actually. Even then, he never came across as one of the "gay" furfags; I think he might have a girlfriend, last I checked... though whether it's an actual "girl" is something I have yet to verify. I think the bullying had pushed him into the fandom more than anything, rather than the other way around; I remember overhearing him complain to the teachers a few times that one bully kept "rubbing his junk all over him" in the bathroom, so...

As for the store; I used to work at a Hobby Lobby, got a part-time position there for the holidays. And yes, the woketard had been in a section we have for some old movies, taking pictures; I had actually found his post on Reddit afterwards, and him and the comments had all been ranting about how Hobby Lobby supports "Christian fascism" or some shit. Wasn't the first loon we've dealt with, and he left without causing any real issues, so...

Meanwhile all a /pol/tard has to do is use a few slurs and we've got one of these mental health nutcases quite literally screeching in public as if they've been possessed by the devil.
