The industry is filled to the fucking brim with sycophants, hypocrites and consumers, to the point where the industry is just fucked.

The biggest example of this? The so-called Sony fans who, not too long ago were laughing at shit games like Halo:Infinite and hi-fi rush, are now salivating to have those games on Playstation. They even see it as winning because MS have ported their games.

The mongs don't realise that they're having to beg MS for table-scraps because Sony refuses to feed them. A pathetic fanbase for sure.
 
A minimum of two writers who worked on Anthem, Andromeda and Dragon Age failguard are working on Ghost of Tsushima 2. :story:

Even though it would sell gangbusters, Rockstar won’t put GTA6 on Switch 2 because they’re either retarded or being bribed by have a strong business partnership with Sony.
Rockstar hates Nintendo after a failed partnership for Body Harvest. Nintendo meddled hard in the development of the game including heavy censorship, then when things got real heated, they refused to publish, nearly killing the studio.

Quoting GAMEFAQS here:
Rockstar North (formerly DMA Design) was set to become a major second party developer for Nintendo during the N64 era, but this partnership fell apart due to numerous creative disputes during the development of Body Harvest, which resulted in numerous delays and culminated with Nintendo refusing to publish the finished product.
Nintendo nearly caused DMA Design to go bankrupt. Rockstar North and more importantly Grand Theft Auto III would've never been a thing. Who knows how how the gaming industry turns out then.

Needless to say, they are not one to really work with them after this fiasco, only porting smaller titles and spin-offs, but seemingly refusing to ever allow Nintendo access to their higher tier games.

I was going to say something to that effect because I thought Nintendo was shy when it came to OTT violence like GTA, COD, etc. I know they allow fighting and violent games but don't they have a weird moral code when it comes to gaming? They did hire a literal prostitute as their community manager.
Nintendo has been fairly open to M rated titles since the GC, but the perception of the company has been family friendly for years given their censorship in the NES-N64 era. Nintendo also markets their consoles as family machines, so even if they don’t restrict the content, their own marketing makes putting M rated titles on their machines a worthless affair. Anyone who would play COD or GTA owns a PlayStation or XBOX as those are the “man’s machines.”

Case in point:
The Wii also had Madworld and No More Heroes. Both comically over the top violent games clearly made for adults.
Both of those titles, along with later Bayonetta, are heavily stylized games that fit the Nintendo brand in their wackiness regardless of the M-rated content. It also doesn’t help that the reason they got big was big fish in a small pond syndrome: they were the Wii’s M-rated titles, not one of many.

When most people at the time spoke about Nintendo being kid friendly, it was more in regards to EA, Ubisoft, Activision and Rockstar slop. All of these companies were heavily inconsistent with releases, always stripped the releases bare, likely left out DLC, and overall avoided Nintendo beyond the occasional bone being thrown out.
 
I am ready to never hear the word "woke" ever again. I miss the time when I could dismiss shit games as pandering or playing lip-service to puerile tokenism, because they truly are. AC Shadows is the perfect example with the black samurai (whose face nearly 1:1 matches Floyd) and plays that hip hop tune when fighting (which would be dope as fuck in a game where you played real samurais).

"Woke" is a ghetto-ass buzzword that should've been ignored the moment Twitter nogs coined it. Honestly embarrassing how the right has unironically co-opted it.

The cringe is indescribable when I hear men in their late forties use the word in real life conversations to decry bad writing.
 
So concept art for Sony Santa Monica's new IP leaked and well....

What's easier to say if someone asks what's bad about a game, "the game's woke" or "the game's pandering or playing lip-service to puerile tokenism"?
