Unpopular Opinions about Video Games

a lot of people who bitch about Wokeshit have basically turnt into mini-Jack Thompsons but refuse to realize this, is shit like Type A/Type B in character creators mildily annoying ? yes but its not the hill I choose to die on, saving that shit for disasters like Concord or Dustborn makes far more sense.
Disasters like Concord and Dustborn kill themselves without the need of anyone even making fun of them. Stuff like Type A/Type B in character creators is more insidious because it's often snuck into otherwise okay games that people will buy anyway despite the blatant tranny propaganda being put right in front of them.

Sir, that's a common opinion.

The entire games industry openly pandering to trannies is nothing compared to the real issue of people complaining on the internet! Be a proud buck broken nigger like @Caddo Cobgang who is so above it all, he inadverdently defends troon pandering like a based chud!

Your indignant faggotry is nonsensical and retarded. What kind of dishonest nigger sees a game company pander to trannies and then seethe about normal people not putting up with it by namedropping Jacques Thompson?

Turns out being a cuck faggot like you is how things got this bad to begin with. Kill yourself trannysimp.
Sir, that's a common opinion.
Common opinion held by disingenuous gorilla nigger retards. Being a proud cuck who histrionically shits themselves whenever someone doesn't roll over to the latest wokeshit push, in this case literal pandering to fucking trannies, is mentally deranged and provably the mentality that allowed troons to infest everything.

"It's no big deal, why do you care" Nigger why do you care to change male and female into troon a and troon b in every fucking game? What kind of braindead nigger falls for this shit and then smuggly dilates about the people voicing displeasure about it?

Stop being wishy-washy, grow an actual spine and condemn ALL of it already.
 
I know, I know, "pajeets." But seriously, I've used over a dozen windowing/GUI toolkits over the past 30 years and none of them are really slow (Windows Forms and that "universal blah blah" shit Microsoft followed it with is pretty bad, but still...). You have to try to make sluggish programs with them. They're all designed for speed. It's like the pajeets aren't just terrible, they're practiced at being terrible.

Could it be related to how they're all constantly streaming ads now?
 
Anything other than COD is shit. You wanted unpopular, there, I'll say it.
Can you be a little more specific?

Thread tax: True Crime: NYC could've been something great if it wasn't rushed by Activision. Imagine being a cop in a true crime sequence murder mystery tackling four major crime syndicates in all major NYC boroughs.

I miss bargain bin, AA games from the 6th, 7th generation. Who knows what you'd get, a diamond in the rough or a crap game cashing in on a franchise. And yes, I'd consider Activision an AA developer at that time like THQ.

No, it's because they're not actually writing programs. They're asking ChatGPT to call libraries to run code which gets poorly compiled into five different programming languages before finally ending up as a mangled abomination of machine code that has no business existing.

They're also not even calling the libraries correctly. Usually if something doesn't work, rather than starting over they'll just keep adding more and more shit until everything somehow manages to Frankenstein itself into some semblance of functionality. When I was new to Mac programming I followed a stack overflow pajeet's guide to getting my dev environment up and running. I ended up with two different package managers and three different versions of Ruby all trying to override one another. Nothing worked at all. It wasn't until I burned it all down and just did what felt intuitive that things started to function properly.

I still liked True Crime: NYC but you could definitely tell it got rushed out the door and there were a metric fuckton of bugs, though that's not something unexpected given the previous title in the series. I spent hours when I was younger just doing beat cop shit and taking on the ambient police calls for service and not even touching the main story for quite a while.

I don't remember Streets of LA being that buggy. NYC reminded me of Law and Order, Streets of LA went more mythical with B list martial arts.

True Crime: NYC had an accurate map of Manhattan. I'm almost impressed, but again, the lack of polish and rushed story ruined its full potential.

I played it on PS2 and ran into a shit-ton of bugs such as Nick Kang's [the main character] head becoming transparent for some reason, meaning 1/4 of the game his head was just floating eyeballs and a mouth, mission scripting locking up, cars getting stuck for no good reason, etc. Maybe I was just unlucky but yeah I definitely liked the more gritty, serious tone they tried to set for NYC. Streets of LA was fun and bombastic and crazy but you could tell that the writers had no fucking idea how to wrap up the plot and ran out of ideas. Both maps were extremely impressive for the time, I remember distinctly trying to learn the layout of Manhattan in real life so I could go to Ground Zero in game, not that there was much to see there.

It was neat to me that for the most part in either game, if you printed out real MapQuest [that dates this shit pretty hard] directions for how to get to a specific location, in most cases you could actually use them. Might be the first games I really remember actually going for that level of accuracy in a sandbox instead of using the city as a backdrop, inspiration or just creating a fictional city. It's a shame that it's a dead series, I think there's still a big hole in the market for a GTA-like game but played from the other side, law enforcement. Sleeping Dogs was conceptualized as a True Crime sequel and remains so in spirit but after that, nothing.

I'm not even that big of a stickler about bugs/glitches as long as they aren't gamebreaking, it's still bullshit when something gets released in a shit state like Cyberpunk and what-not, but most PS2 era bugs were sort of fun and whimsical like the aforementioned floating eyeballs and a mouth glitch, I got a real kick out of that when I was a kid and it didn't really affect the gameplay.

Well that is the slippery slope for you, once you accept the games with no genders then you get the games that force you to customize your axe wound in character creation and they will say "what's the problem, you were open to being a trans ally before".

It's crazy to think that children are growing up playing nothing but games that include no references to male or female, are they going to start calling women "B types" at their schools?

Not even alphies are so brain-rotted that they're not going to know what a man or woman is. Referring to others by their gender comes so natural to people, there's a reason so many people get pissed by the attempt at removing it from games. It's essentially a tiny minority of the population working in the entertainment industry trying to gaslight the rest of society into believing society as all agreed on some progressive stance that they absolutely haven't.

It's like how leftists will talk about how there's story writing where you write your world as reality is versus writing your world to match how you think the world should be. Leftists will say that doing the former will strengthen the existing negative views and prejudices in reality, so you should do the latter and write your stories as if they exist in a progressive utopia. They think doing so will eventually just make everyone believe that this progressive utopia that all their fiction presents is how the world actually is and they should act accordingly. That's why the worlds in so much modern Western fiction comes off as so fake and gay.

Steam has been sluggish since before ChatGPT went live, and I'd see msvc or clang processes appear while I was running Steam if that was the case.
 
I’m honestly glad the SJW shitwave happened in the mid 2010s. Did it ruin Vidya? It sure as shit sped up the process but Vidya was already on a downward spiral anyway. It meant that anti woke sentiment was introduced to the general population and we’re actually in a better place culturally because of it. It’s better then the proto woke faggotry of the 2000s

That's the thing though: they do. Look at how the average Anti-Racist™️ One Of The Good Ones®️ white person operates. They don't care if you're black, white, or polka dot. And no amount of black on white crime or systemic racism against them will convince them that da teevee is wrong and the Nazis are not, in fact, perpetually moments away from seizing power.

The overwhelming majority of people live in a hallucinated reality constructed entirely out of TV and movie plots. We act like Chris-chan is some outlier freak because he believes in the Cartoon Dimension or whatever, but the horrifying truth is that he's actually very normal in that regard. In fact, he may be saner that most, because at least he's aware that the fictional world and the real one are separate.

In other words, Chris believes that made up people somehow exist in another universe. Useful idiots believe that made up people always existed in ours.

It really is annoying that there genuenly are so many "woke" games from 2000s that "anti-woke" people see no problem with probably just because the "woke" parts were a little less annoying and obnoxious back then.

You will never trully defeat "wokeness" if you see no problem with the ideology itself and continue to lie to yourself that you can have a "progressive" society and it won't affect the video games
