   new stonetoss. he's correct here. many gamers never learned any lessons, never learned to identify strange additions to narrative and ask why the hell it was done, and never grew past being libtards. they're just longing for the days where the propaganda was of higher quality

     @smugumin there have always been women protags and nonwhite characters in games. It's totally fine. There are games with only white people that are preachy and weird too, even the rightoid games (sometimes especially). All gamers want is good games and to not feel like they're being talked down to or pestered about political shit they don't agree with in faggy ways.

     Metal Gear and FF7 are great examples of games that have propaganda in them but are still fucking amazing.

     So, bad things are bad... what is your point?
     Obviously, if DEI was implemented in the steelman way of truly supporting chairbound people and help the disatvantaged get jobs, where their conditions do not affect their effectiveness, noone would have a morally justifyable reason to be against it.

     But, that's the steelman, not the reality. And the issue is just the bad parts. That really should not be a controvertial take.

     @smugumin Yeah? What point is this post even supposed to be making? There have been niggers in video games even earlier than 2004 that were "just there" and weren't trying to shove vile leftist moral talking points or just gross-for-the-sake-of-being-brave imagery unlike certain titles (which all except Balder's Gay ended up being flops every single time, think about it).
     
     "Gamers" ARE retarded but even they know there's a huge difference between TF2 Demoman and whatever the fuck kind of "gender abomination gay nigger who constantly tries to flirt with the MC while yelling tranny rights" would be in a fundamentally terrible video game.

     I refuse to pretend, that Alyx Vance is not hot just so you snowflakes can keep up the semblence of unity under absolutist racism.

     You know me. I will not lie just to defend the lady. Zendaya does not deserve 1/10th of the attention she has, and Margot Robbie is just ugly by now.

     But Alyx?
