Hello. A black gamer here. I personally like seeing black characters in games... But what I prefer to see overall are well-written character-driven stories, attractive graphics and top-notch playability. I can't stand tokenism and the endless race and gender swapping with well-established characters. It's pathetic and we're not asking for it.
Don't sweat the race-baiters. Vote with your wallets.
I agree. I want games to be more diverse...but I also want them to be well written. Starfield comes to mind. Some dude was obsessed over the character creation pronouns...I'm like...dude, who cares? Just create your character and move on.
I'm white(from a third world country never represented in any game 😂) but I never payed attention to character colours or origins only if it was related to the story, as far as I remember there where always all races in games, not all of them but most of them except those that where geographically or historically focused, where it definitely doesn't make any sense to have a black character or npc with the vikings or a white character between the feudal Japan etc.
This new narrative is not about races that much, it is about pronouns😂
I stand with you on that one.
Games were already diverse enough. Gears of war had Cole who is a lot of people's favorite character as well as mine and I'm white. We had plenty of bad ass games with a main character who was a woman hell we even had prototype 2 and just so many other games.
@@StaceyAyodele You should watch the entire video leading up to that meltdown to understand the context. He wasn't obsessed with the character creation pronouns, it was just the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.
As a black man i miss the time i was closer to my white friends. We were so close then out of no where everybody just hated each other. Wierd times we live in
It wasn't out of nowhere. The anti white agenda got normalized
That's the point brother. To divide everyone up. The govt wants you alone, poor and depressed. That way they can help you if you vote for em.
@@cn9707 if only we had a leader to put a stop to all of this
>everyone hated eachother
What made you hate them?
the whole point of these policies is to create resentment. pandering to certain groups while ignoring/hitting on others all while talking about "equality" is just the thing to keep animosity alive. certain poliics cant survive without beeing able to blame everything on wacism. they are the ones paying for all the dei/esg.
I am a 40 year old black Puerto Rican and I have been playing since my childhood. Never in my life have I thought "hey, why aren't there black or Latino characters in my games?"
That was never the reason I started playing or a necessity for me. I could see Ryu from SF and say "That's me!" But we are in a society that since they have social media plataforms they have the need for attention and recognition...
When it feels forced people will hate it when it feels natural people will respect it.
This exactly
Not a single thing this propaganda promotes is natural.
People are already burned at the point of expecting wokeness when certain elements are used.
I just avoid it all. I watch only old movies, play old games etc.
@@Shaidon7 Thats their issue though. Thats what grifters do to you.
I’m 45+ and black. Played video games ever since the early 80s. Every black kid I knew played video games as well. My point is that there’s always been diversity with video game players. I am tired of this whole “woke” and lecturing type of culture however. It would be great to get back to playing quality video games that work as intended.
The world will never go back, we are on a downward spiral, and it's accelerating.
Wokeness is a literal communist/facist Trojan horse. They have no qualms with lying to gain power, because power is all that matters to them.
I grew up with videogames. I've never spared a thought about a character or other player's skin color. These people are racists and their goal is the collapse of western society. Videogames unite us, and they HATE that.
I mean, I don't know why people keep forgetting Japan is kinda responsible for a large amount of games. Skin colour is... it's an interesting thing apparently. Personally still confused as to why people who are clearly brown, no idea what their heritage would be precisely, calling themselves black. But then I'm still confused as to how people call brown hair red.
Just look at Jax from Mortal Kombat. He's been in every single game since MK2 in 1993 and has always been beloved and nobody had to bring up race because he was a good character
I can’t believe we’ve gotten to this point. Gamers just wanted to game…bad actors do what they always do….invade and destroy. They don’t want to be included they want to destroy.
If their ideas were really as good as they pretend, they wouldn't have to use coercion and extortion to have those ideas implemented in games.
Its evil hiding behind fake virtue wolf in sheep clothing they are out to destroy
If their ideas were really as good as they pretend, nobody would have complained in the first place.
@@gustavheinrich5565 doesnt help that they single out the majority of gamers either. also funny how how their idea of "inclusive" actively ostracizes the "White Male gamer"
It's 1997. Barret is a "black", hulking, amputee with a gatling gun as a weapon strapped to his arm. He is a father to his best friend's daughter after a tragic turn of events. He was a badass and that was all that mattered to me. I am absolutely loving FF7RB.
It's one character SquareSoft (Enix) made right.
@@agamersinsanity All of them are. Especially when you find strength in knowing Tifa is your actual wife IRL. 🤷🏻♂️
My man. He was my favorite ( non-cloud character ) from 7.
Where " strong black men as characters" stand. You really can't miss with him.

I always wished I could fire his gunarm.
And practicaly giggled with excitement ( I'm not to proud to admit) when I was allowed to do so in the Remake.
People are just sick of being preached to by a bunch of people who really don't have any sort of moral high ground
Maybe this is part of the Warburg Kalergi Plan
Or morals
Or ground
From both sides.
@@BillPinkNye
Yup
As a veteran dev in the AAA industry, I'll tell you there were indeed women in the industry before the 2014 Commie Revolution, but at the studios I was at, those women were nerds, they were like "us," and guys at the studio loved them because they were girls that were weird like them! That was a shock, indeed.
But, after 2014 diversity hiring brought in women who were not nerds, they were just feminists who didn't give AF about games at all
bro, nothing makes me sadder than looking at old game dev studios from the 90s. System Shock 2's credits (watch them on youtube) is the perfect example. Everyone there, including the women, were turbo nerds. Everyone came from all walks of life, from lawyers, to plumbers, to work on games because they loved them. That's all gone now. Depressing af.
💯
This is just a bunch of activists and narcissists who want control of the industry. No true gamer cares about representation in video games…we play games to escape reality, not partake in more of the woke nonsense we deal with in life.
@@moonashaIt's not gone. It's just moved on to the indie scene. Lot's of devs from our old favorite teams left to go make and work at their own smaller studios. Takes a little digging, but they are still there. Back in our day, we really didn't need to research a game much to tell if it was going to be for us or not. Nowadays, we have to vet every company, developer, and publisher involved to make sure it's going to be a "fun game." Even watching gameplay isn't quite enough anymore. Now, though, there are plenty of independent dev teams that literally just focus on making good games. Sure they are smaller scale, but they deserve our dollars far more than the soulless husks that control the AAA scene today.
This. Exactly this.
@@Jaguar21010 this is the state of it. the AAA industry is to be abandoned, but all games have to functionally be checked... by an industry of customers and consumers who frequently pre-order... thus the problem.
If you’re continually supporting bad games and bad developers you’re the problem. Stop giving them money and they will be forced to adapt
Remember when we judge a person of their character and not the color of their skin?
Can we go back there?
1. Shoehorn your activism into games
2. People complain
3. Attack the complainers
4. When they respond, say "I'm being harassed!"
5. Gaslight everyone to forget that you started it
6. Play victim, try to censor and deplatform others
7. Repeat
Don't let these people gaslight you or pretend that they have the moral high ground. They are not the "good guys", they don't have the high ground, and they substitute activism for talent.
What are they hoping to achieve with this? Those who despise woke wont purchase and anyone new to it wont find anything interesting enough to stick with it long term as a hobby.
Why do the tyranids consume and destroy anything they encounter? Why do locusts?
Seriously, anything that is good and successful outside of their narrow worldview, they see as challenging their worldview, and that can't be tolerated. Everything must be remade according to their ideology, and everything else must be undermined and discredited.
"Everything Within the State, Nothing Against the State, Nothing Outside the State."
Now replace "the state" with whatever their particular dogma is, and you have their mindset.
It used to be that people used to make fun of gamers, treating us as though we were man-childs obsessed with toys and whatnot. Then, once they realized just how profitable gaming was, those same people wormed their way into the things we loved and are now, not only continuing to insult and mock us, they're now trying to tell us how we're suppose to enjoy the hobby we grew up loving and changing it one game at a time. It's just like what happened with comics.
Exactly what I came here to say. It's wild how things have changed over the years
Yep, its corporatism worming its way into gaming and those corporations are run by dinosaurs who assume Twitter and the SJW mobs are their 'real' customers.
Well said
And movies
The lefty freaks did the same thing with every single technology site I used to haunt many years ago. Slashdot being one of the ones I miss the most.
Race was never even an issue in the golden age of gaming.
Yeah dude Banjo-Kazooie was one of my favorite games. Star Fox, Crash and I loved donkey Kong
Everybody loved Johnson
@@will_of_europaeveryone did! He was awesome, people still love him. He had nothing to prove about any political shit and that’s why we loved him.
yeah and Spyro and ratchet and clank and Jak and Daxter
@@PowuhToSeven same!
It's very simple, why would you buy products or give money to people that hate you.....
It’s funny how they alienate pretty much all of the gaming space, even some of their own allies lmfao
As a Tenno I find the representation of transference powered space ninjas alarming. We literally have 1 game.
As a slime, I find the lack of slime starring games disturbing.
The last person I’d want near my company is Anita Sarkeesian.

@@DrWackySanchez anytime there’s a chance to start up a protection racket again, she’ll show her busted face 😂
Poison and toxic to any brand
It wouldn't even make my last list of people you are being too generous
Sucks that ESG money has been keeping them afloat artificially. Even if you don’t buy these games you’re still paying for them with your taxes. That’s the real thing to be up in arms about.
That won't last. The well will dry up because so many companies are sucking money from it. The ESG monster is not unkillable.
You clearly do not know how taxation works :D
@@stefilduce7452they lost 3 trillion In value on ESG. The pendulum is swinging back hard on these people.
Larry Fink CEO of BlackRock managed $10,000,000,000,000 of assets from pension funds, etc. He would decide where in the Stock Market these funds were invested. He became interested in Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), Environmental and Social Governance (ESG), and Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI). The Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRCF) which was formerly focused on pushing Transgender Ideology was tasked with examining corporations and assigning them a Corporate Equality Index (CEI). The more points you can get the more likelihood that Larry Fink will buy your stock for his fund. This has gone on for a few years and this is why Disney have put a gay boy in _Strange World_ as well as other unpopular decisions because they were more motivated to get investment from Fink than to maintain the quality of their trusted family safe brand which had been built up over 100 years.
This has now been destroyed and as of this morning Nelson Peltz failed to kick out Bob Iger CEO of Disney in order to stop them destroying the brand with LGBTQ+ messaging targeted at impressionable children who shouldn't be thinking about sex at their age. The DIS Stock crashed as a result. Interestingly, Fink recently said that they had lost a lot of money on ESG and DEI through this CEI index pursuit. What a surprise that going woke makes you go broke as it isn't popular with people! He went from 100% CEI driven investments to 8% so we will see less incentive to push woke messaging in future projects, but for those already in the works it is too late as they are caught in multi year productions.
I will be curious if _INSIDE OUT 2_ has a Lesbian relationship between children as hinted at in the trailer. If Disney don't want to lose money they will fix this so it isn't the case before the film comes out, but given that the final trailer is ambigious and all rainbow colours they may get boycotted even if the movie isn't woke, simply because they failed to communicate what it was clearly. It seems _Deadpool 3_ had studio interference with Disney wanting Brie Larson and Tatiana Maslany in it and Ryan Reynolds had enough power to stop this being in the final cut although I think their scenes got filmed, so that will probably be irreverant anti-woke fun. I reserve judgement on _The Acolyte_ unlike some commentators who have trashed the first trailer as I think it is premature to pass judgement on something until you have seen at least the first episode of a series. _Dune_ had a good enough trailer, but was an utterly boring mumble fest with only one character I care about. Honestly, _Madame Web_ was more entertaining, and didn't overstay its welcome.
What we need is a govt that will stand up to these globalist fascist. The next administration WE need to hold the fee to the FIRE. No more fance sitting. Our future and, seeds future is looking bleak if WE don't.
As a gamer and developer we had many black and Spanish ( I myself) family and friends playing games on the snes and sega consoles in the 90's and early 2000's. As someone who commented below "Video games were huge in the black community in the 90's." So true
SUPER NINTENDO, SEGA GENESIS, when I was dead broke, yo I couldn't picture this.
It was huge in the culture, these new stats are fudged and these awful people are just lying about the present while rewriting history.
yea but the revisionist history will bury that as well as admitted there were girl gamers in the late 1990s and early 2000s ,as in the uk they even had a game show hosted by 3 gamer girls....and at least 30% of game reviewers back then for a while were girls...
Done. They won't get a cent from me anymore. I have enough older games to play to escape this "modern" insanity.
It's insane that when there's actual blatant racism - not microaggressions, not vague "systemic disadvantages" - but people literally saying that they hate white males, that white male gamers are "mistakes", champions of "diversity" rush to change the English language and define racism to conform to their personal biases. It's not racism if they're white and it's not sexism if they're male.
And then you have companies that brag about having 100% non-white employees (Black Girl Gamers) publicly on their website saying that it makes them diverse. Diverse means variety - not 100% your race/gender. Are we living in reality? Does language exist and are words defined? The nanosecond a company would brag publicly about having 100% white employees, it would be dissolved and the leadership would be investigated for ties to the Klan.
This experiment of hyperfocus on immutable characteristics like race and gender as the defining factors in our identity needs to come to an end. Let's go back to trying to avoid judging people by their sex or skin, instead of only looking at their sex and skin; telling stories that respect source material and draw from diverse sources instead of shoehorning synthetic representation into established worlds; and focusing on gameplay and story instead of manipulating content and artistic vision to push specific political agendas.
I feel your pain brother
I agree, there is no 'good' racism, racism against whites is just plain racism.
Can we just stop for a minute and consider just what a profoundly weird name choice "Sweetbaby Inc." is for a consulting firm? When I first heard I thought they sell clothes for toddlers.
I was also confused in what way Babies have anything to do with video games, they are not even old enough to comprehend the world around them much less the introcacies of good Story telling.
@@schwarzflammenkaiser2347 Maybe it's a ironic representative of the consultants themselves - unable to read or comprehend what a good story is
maybe to throw ppl off
Maybe they are .pdf's on the down low
It's because their job is to patronize the audience, to treat them like children who need correction.
100% great opening. People need to talk about this more. When I was in middle and high school at the end of the 90s I would not tell women that I was a gamer because THEY SHAT ALL OVER GAMERS. They thought that games were nerdy, and gamers were gross. ALL of them did. No one ever kept them out, they HATED gaming.
When I was growing up in the 80s most of the girls I knew had a Game & Watch. I had two nieces and a nephew who used to fight over Gameboy Tetris. My ex-wife was a Lemmings fanatic and a Ms Pacman and Toobin' ace. My first regular WoW raid guild leader was a female. My raiding partner of 4 years was also. My current wife has absolutely no background in gaming at all, she sucks at them. It's a sore point tbh, but you can't have everything. I have never assumed my experiences were definitive. But neither are yours.
I was a female gamer in the 90's. My first game system was a Dream Cast.
@@adrianparsons6683An exception that proves the norm.
Maybe for u. Most girls i knew growing up in the early 90s all played video games. Arcades had all kinds of ppl. Not sure what YOU did wrong. My social crew def had lots of girl gamers
@@jmalthe norm for who? So u and ya friends got called nerds and now everyone did? Stop typing like u one of them no shower for 4 day gamers
I still haven’t forgiven what EA has done to most of my favorite franchises. All these companies need to be held accountable for their part for trying to ruin the gaming industry
And this is exactly why I don't buy their games. I speak with my wallet shut.
@@ShadowWolf2023-yp5zg anthem was my last straw.
There was a time when people fell in love with characters. Well written characters, who had depth and feeling to them. Didn't matter to me (white man) that Ripley was female. Didn't matter to me that Blade was black, buff (I'm not! Far from it), and a Vampire. I could empathise and sympathise with well written characters. Aladdin, Mulan, Joan of Arc. Didn't matter what race or species (Love Spock!) or sex the character was. Same for games. Most normal people fall in love with brilliantly executed and written characters, regardless of the superficial stuff.
Only those whose minds are limited, and who are immured in racism and sexism cannot. So the majority of us will simply reject their nonsense and not pay for it. Let's just pay for and enjoy fun games. These companies will either wake up or disappear. I really no longer care which they choose.
To this day Aliens is my favorite movie, i know basically all lines from the movie after watching it many 100s times on VHS and other media after. Sigourney Weaver and Lance Henriksen were amazing actors, so was Wesley Snipes aka Daywalker who also had a great performance in Demolition Man. Good acting and script outweigh current green-screen noobs with forced in diversity for bad reasons insanely.
@@pawed.7512 is this going to be a stand up fight sir or another bug hunt. Aliens is so good and alien isolation is one of my favorite games of all time. Awesome Female protagonist and no shoehorned in woke politics. I'm really concerned the new alien movie is going to be woke trash. It is Disney after so, they'll find a way to ruin it
Every kid in russia was playing GTA:SA in 2005 like crazy, nobody cared about skin color, every teen could recognize specific npc movement when people tried to represent and meme in irl.
This is practically the South park dilemma: nobody cares about "insert a word here" till Karens start screeching about it and put fire in the conflict.
The problem is they want to force white people to represent other races in the gamesthey make. If a white person makes the game they have a right to make their characters white like them. Why is it white people's job to create representation for others?
Jax from mortal kombat is a perfect example. Nobody gave a shit about color we just thought he was cool
355,000+ just want to game in peace
They came for us, not the other way around.

@@meowianoverlord4854 incorrect, most gamers dont give a shit
@@meowianoverlord4854 You realize that the 355,000+ number is just those on Steam, right? No way to know if that is "just a tiny fraction of gamers". Also, recent sales of this garbage says otherwise. Spiderman 2 didn't meet Sony's expectations, Suicide Squad is on life support, The Saints Row reboot and Forsaken releases both got their respective studios shuttered. The receipts are there.
I have been heavily involved with computers since the beginning of the "Home PC" era... Since the Atari and the earliest 8 bit games. I was one of those nerdy geeks that watched Star Trek, played D&D, read Comic books, and of course, played a LOT of video games over the years. While I will admit that there were always an "over the top" person or two who were obsessive compulsive and off putting within almost ANY group or interest, 95% of the fans in each of those hobbies were extremely accepting and welcoming to ANYONE who showed ANY interest in the same hobbies. I had/have many good friends of all types, colors, abilities, and genders, and had great amounts of fun together.... I never saw ANY harassment in regards to color, gender, race, or disability.... Back then we were all grateful and excited to share our love for whichever hobby was involved. As a group, geeks and nerds were vilified, shunned and bullied by the mainstream and we pretty much ignored them and just built cool stuff for ourselves... Over the past twenty years, people like me watched a shift in the culture where geeks, nerds, and gamers had become more "acceptable" and more people started entering our hobbies to get involved with the cool toys we had built... and we welcomed them, even the former bullies, with open arms... and then the bullies started to make complaints, then demands that whichever hobby they got involved with had to change to fit their viewpoints and narratives... they invaded and colonized EVERYTHING we did and tried to make EVERYBODY follow their rules and used the same shaming and bullying tactics as before to wrench our "toys and joys" away from us and destroy them like a jealous and bratty child. By the time that most people realized the destruction that was occurring and tried to limit the damage, it was too late and the rapacious horde was already inside the supposed "Gates"... Geeks and Nerds were always welcoming, to the point that we let these bad actors in with the hope of friendship in our common interests... The bullies regular external attacks were being ignored and they found a new tactic, that quickly became apparent, that there was no real interest in our hobbies, it was merely another way to get under our skin and destroy the very things we loved from the inside. The various fandoms were slowly divided into factions and fomenting internal strife... this is the "endgame" for the liars, colonizers, bullies, and cheaters... they have thoroughly infiltrated every corner with their trash and the industry that nerds and geeks painstakingly built over decades is collapsing under the weight of their hatred for anything that we built... Evil cannot create, they can only corrupt that which the good have made... that sums up the anger and the backlash against these turds... We suffered decades of bullying and misery and clung to our hobbies, but now those bullies are destroying everything while lying and claiming that THEY are the victims when the geeks and gamers and nerds complain about their wanton destruction. Absolute turds.
Diversity nowadays is about skin colour or gender, many years ago when I ran a group of people diversity was about their skillset not their colour or who they sleep with. The world is crazy!!
Diversity = Exclusion of white men.

Found another alt right racist basement dweller. That was EZ, lol 😂🤣
This term is used as a one size fits all for political opponents and it makes me sick. What the Nazis did was some of the most atrocious acts commited in recent history and the ideology behind it and shouldn't be normalized like this. If someone holds and expresses distinct believes the third reich pushed it is reasonable to point that out but racist and nazi are not interchangable terms. It allows real nazis blend in conservative groups if you call everyone a nazi and that is dangerous for society as a whole.

Shouldn’t you be commenting on a reddit thread somewhere?
Funny how inclusion actually translates to exclusion
Unfortunately, people who propagate white supramacy ideas, over all reactionary ideas, have always taken refuge in the gaming community and have used the community to cauch their ideology. The industry is simply cynically cleaning up the trash to maximize their profits
This is pretty much a core issue with inclusion for our modern day society, rather than adding options it is more about substitution and calling the original group who just had their options reduced racist / misogynists / sexists / Nazis or what-ever. It's just a hot mess. Ultimately our digital society is increasingly being filled with lost people searching for something to scapegoat.
"Non-sexualised" is NOT the same as "desexed". I am sooo loving the overwhelming numbers of female gamers who also admire and respect EVE in Stellar Blade. Also - isn't banning the male and female likenesses that most closely align with the average genetically-determined 'ideal'? Aren't they being prejudiced against physically 'perfect' people and... ohhhhh... the ones behind this didn't go to their Prom did they. Is that all this is? Bitterness?
Yep, I suppose so.
There's nothing wrong with sexualizing game characters anyway. Its literally a fantasy you can role play. Its not real.
yes it is. bitter, resentful, and pathetic people
I am a woman over 40. Been a gamer since the 80's. So the culture really started in the 80's and 90's. Political or Social justice bullshit has really only been pushed into gaming in the last decade. Btw, I have told my daughters who are gamers to not have feminine user names because that makes them a target some toxic male gamers. Not all male gamers are toxic, but we still teach about protecting themselves online.
Being mad at a steam list for daring to list Games a company themselves credit themselves with being involved in is akin to an actor being angry at wikipedia for daring to list their Filmography

That’s my favorite.

As someone who uses Linux, I really wish every triple a developer would not be so easily convinced that the Microsoft proprietary kernel is the single piece of paid software in every computer in the world is required to have to touch their software. Microsoft Windows will soon be the only Monopoly for your secretive kernel to talk to the secretive client that has more access to your computer then you do to play a game that is also kept secret so they can delete it when it's milked. Trust doesn't exist anymore and if you trust these companies then you get no pity from me.
It's crazy how you see most black gamers agree with you, but the mainstream will gaslight us into thinking otherwise. Keep pushing back, my boy!
Been gaming since the early 90's and throughout my childhood all the way to adulthood I never thought twice about the color of a character's skin, and I'm black. This hyper fixation on it right now makes zero sense to me. I don't want nor need to be represented everywhere, especially in video games.
Same! Gaming since the 90s, and didn't think about all that stuff. All I wanted was a fun game to play. Now? I have to pick and choose to make sure I can find a game that isn't filled with politics, cause who wants to have the real world in a fantasy world?
I've been gaming since the mid 80s and it hasn't crossed my mind either all this shit going on now is a joke
same to me, I played asian, black and whatever people, also a lot of women, despite beeing a man myself. This whole Diversity BS is artificial and nobody needs that. The diversity in games were already there, naturally and it worked pretty well. Now they are destroyng it.
Anything related to diversity in my head was context And setting specific like wanting to play a Japanese character in a ninja or samurai game.
They arent doing it to please black people, they are doing it to justify meddling with every aspect of the entertainment industry and our lives in general. All this does is stirs up resentment and does nothing for race relations, I'm brown skinned, been playing these games from the early 80s and never ever felt I needed to choose a black character in order to enjoy a video game or watch a movie.
One thing I can tell you is that gamers do not like to be told what to think. The more you try to do this, the more chance you have of losing ALL you client base. Probably NOT a good idea to alienate the people you want to buy your games.
My opinion is that SBI got a bit too full of themselves, and instead of succeeding in removing people they don't like, they brought attention to something that not a lot of people knew about and CAUSED the bear trap they are now in.
I had no clue who ANY of these people were until today. As a result, I am NOW paying attention. What I am seeing is a group of people cut from the same cloth as Trudeau. In fact SBI sounds like something we'd find the Trudeau Foundation is invested in. This gaslighting, calling people out for being what you ACTUALLY are, is a really BAD tactic in an era where time and a wifi reveal all.
Lesson: Don't throw stones in a house of glass.
Exactly, till now I didn't even know they existed, now I'll make sure I'll never buy a game they are involved. Not to mention I'll be sure to try to refund any game I bought with them involved.
A bit????
Thier whole "business" is mobbary. It's a racket and I don't give them any quarter.
Well, "Diversity" of them is just "Exclude" white people, give us 99% of black people, and hate people based on color of skin that cannot be chosen.
It's basically just a company that have been based, around racism against over 80% of customers.
We ain't gonna get good games, with those "AAA" projects.
Its eerily close to the Streisand effect . It works infallibly well, every time .
No matter how you see it, we are ALL brothers and sisters, people like this whose parents and grandparents failed them in their upbringing, their teachers failed them in their education and who failed themselves as decent human beings, are the cancerous growth that will be the end of this body, the body that is our civilisation....

We live in a time where people make entire careers out of their teenage traumas and just bounce from grift to grift. The con artist hasn't gone away, it's just evolved. And lost the "artist" part.
Literally don’t care who,what gender or color the characters are in a game if it’s a well written story, good gameplay and not riddled with micro transactions if it’s a single player game.
Studios just need to go back to making a good game and it will sell.
Because nobody does care. Nobody ever did care. You just see more stories about white men because that's who's writing them and it's easier to write a story that you can relate to on some level. I'm a white dude and I wouldn't write a story about a black woman simply because I have no idea what it's like to be a black woman. I'd butcher the story if I tried and piss off black women in the process.
Gender and colour may have an impact on the setting. A black person in Skyrim is a Redguard, not a local Nord. As such that person is a visitor, an immigrant or from an immigrant family. There are people from all the races and nations represented in the game, but they all make sense where they are. A funny thing is that the Stormcloak rebellions main enemy are the Thalmor, a high elf supremacist group. Still, they generally dislike the darkelfs more. Living as refugees for 200 years without properly rebuilding their lives will do that. Successful darkelves are actually respected even in the city Windhelm that is the Stormcloak's headquarter. Yes, some darkelfs are definitely fishing for victim points highlighted with one of them being sick and tired of his brothers' constant complaints of injustices essentially suggesting that he should get a job to earn respect.
@@michaelpettersson4919 one of my fav things to do in Skyrim was making a Dunmer or Imperial and joining the Stormcloaks, hehe
"That context is never brought up." Because it fucks with the narrative. They can't have that.
The assertion that it was white and asian males mainly playing games in the beginning is painfully wrong. Videogames crossed all racial barriers from their inception, they were just as huge in black and hispanic neighborhoods. And I'm talking from at least the original NES era.
Being a gamer/nerd minority was hell back in the days, throw in being a girl, it is social death as a young teen. I had to hide I loved gaming/anime among my peers or get bullied hard. It was not 'cool' to like any of that stuff. What is weird is the second I went to an all white school (nearly 98% was white) I was warned how disliked I would be. And I will never say people don't have issues or people as young as that can alienate you, but man I felt for the first time I was accepted for my hobbies and by extension I was accepted, and I really opened up and being proud being a minority girl who plays games. My white male/female peers made me feel accepted in a crucial point in my life. I found my tribe with people who shared my hobby not my skin color, and through that I have seen the growth of many who grew up like me as well. It is crazy that these people didn't grow up with that, because the people who gatekept us being gamers were those who were our race and didn't understand gaming. Also the idea of guys being into gaming was hell for them too I suppose (I can only speak on my exp I don't know what it is to be a young guy) but I have African American peers who say that it was not seen as tough to be a nerd, hence weak=ripe for bullying and being accused of not 'man' enough. Let alone the stereotypes of being a virgin gamer, like it was just never good to game no matter who you were, even white/Asian men, it just was they still did it despite the negative look.
tl:dr I love that gaming is being more accepted by the general population, it was not a problem that gamers gatekept it was an issue with people who didn't like or care about gaming.
As a Spanish speaking Latino.. yeah i hate the X im not a robot or a brand "LatinX" is insane.

@@soulbakin As an online gamer there are plenty of people I know only as a tag or an avatar. I do not know their real-life gender, race or political inclination but those are utterly irrelevant in the context anyway.
The very same people who mocked gamers and video games before the 2010's made a U-turn when they realized it was a big thing. Now they made their way to the top of the industry and are telling people how they should enjoy video games. They don't really care about games themselves but about the power they have acquired.
It's pretty telling that most of those individuals display open contempt for gamers. It was already the case with Sarkeesian.
That being said, I'm pretty sure this trend will die out, as both AAA and indie studios fell apart because their games are a failure.
These consultant firms are basically a protection racket. "Nice game you got there. Be a shame if some blog said it doesn't have enough strong female characters."

@@ivandankob7112 Yes they will. People have always spent obscene amounts of money for political power. And that's all this is, that practice reaching video games.
Political power is far more valuable than money. It not only makes you money, but it makes sure no one is able to take it away from you. If you have powerful friends, no one will mess with you. If you only have money, then you're just rounding it for the powerful to take it. Like having a ton of food and medicine in a zombie apocalypse without having the guys and weapons to defend it.
We are certainly not getting more unique experiences these days. That's exactly the opposite of what we've been getting. We've been getting the same grey blob in everything.
A game for everybody is a game for nobody. These companies play it too safe and therefore cannot and will not innovate.

He might be trying to extend an olive branch in an effort to get people discussing the underlying issues without outright stating that games started sucking the instant that dorky white guys stopped being able to make them.

It's because they try to shoehorn in diverse characters but are never brave enough to make them flawed. Mary Sue characters are always boring.

hell yea. i boycott ANYTHING that BS company touches. dont care HOW much they affected it. if they were hired, i boycott. period. i also boycott anything their 'friends' touch.
Perpetuating a problem and making a buck whilst claiming you're solving the problem and distracting people from sorting actual issues is the prime directive of things like BLM, DEI etc. Convince people you're solving a problem whilst maintain the status quo and making a shit tone out of it
Lmao you’re full of shit like everybody else
You should watch Shoeonhead or Nuxanor's reactions. It's worse than you think.
As a black guy in my 40s, I have to point out that in fact, there were a LOT of black people playing video games before the 2000s. The idea that only White and Asian people were into them before then is a misconception that I wish would just go away. We were always there. We just weren't the demographic that was catered to.
That being said, yeah... the so called identity politics that I see with games these days has gotten out of hand. It's BS controversy being thrown about by both sides of the argument for their own agenda, all while people who actually care about video games just want to, you know, play their games in peace.
It really does feed the narrative to say black people weren’t playing video games in the 80’s and 90’s. I don’t recall any games proudly listing on their cartridge packaging “only suitable for white males”. These people who paint a false narrative to solve a problem that was never really there in the first place.
That’s true, but there were over 200 million white people in this country so yes it’s communicated to the majority but however, that was never a problem. Race was never an issue.
Yeah that part threw me a bit, I always loved gaming my first console was the n64 than ps2, I don't know why they think we weren't gaming or didn't enjoy nerdy things lol.
When they started making character creators, they included different skin tones but could only make faces that could be Caucasian or African. So Asians kinda got left out there for a while too.
Diversity and representation is just an excuse to shoehorn in political talking points that fit their ideology.
Ngl when he said that, that was a little weird. I've been in love with gaming sense the Sega genesis
Just more people thinking their jobs don't require consumer money to continue to exist.
Skipping Xbox/Microsoft entirely seems sensible, they've told us repeatedly they don't want gamers as customers.
they bake addiction mechanics right into their platform, kids are logging on to earn pennies, even on days they don't want to play, bc of that Xbox "rewards quests" with objectives such as play 4/7 days this week. It's truly disgusting. The most fQuery is centered around, Online multiplayer, consoles, and Children. Parents need to do better, addiction mechanics built into the console itself is so awful, but it's completely normalized. The games used to be addicting enough, we don't need retention loops making it worse, causing kids to do something they don't even want to do, encouraging them to waste their time further than they would organically. I consider it demonic what they are doing.
Sweet Baby is nothing more than a high tech, low brow shake down operation. Put us on your expense sheet or else. Voices like yours, brave enough for I confront these crooks, are critical to gaming’s survival as an entertainment industry.
The only thing that really pisses me off about Kotaku is that, not having a print edition, it's no use at all as toilet paper which is a shame since it's written for the task.

Valve is an example of this strategy working. Do absolute nothing, till your enemies destroy themselves, after everything is over, profit.
They know this and thats why they insert it into thw biggest franchises, like god of war, last of us and spiderman
They did not just call for the curation to be harassed and removed, but the creator to be harassed and his steam account to be deleted They say they aren't the enemy. What else do you call people when they declare war on you? They insult and attack people for their gender or skin color. Call for them to be fired or not hired. They talk about purging those who do not agree with their every thought. So they seem to consider us the enemy.
Love that you shine a light on this issue. Keep em coming. More people need to learn about this issue in the gaming industry!
I don't mind a wide diverse character list in any sort of media.

And then when you take issue with it, you're a racist... and then the actual racists jump in and undermine your position by visibly 'agreeing' with it (of course, they don't, at least most of the time, they just oppose those you're disagreeing with), and it's just a mess.
It’s actually annoying, I Love a well written female character and diverse character in general, but when the sole purpose of them being female or diverse is for political value then they become a poorly written character.
Stellar blades eve might be a terrible character but I can’t say till I’ve played the game.
There’s so many examples of well written female characters but for some reason recently they have the characters verbally emphasising how great they are because they’re a woman.
Angelina Jolie’s maleficent was amazing, moana was amazing, catniss Everdeen was amazing.
Video games were huge in the black community in the 90's.
That timeline is nutz
But par for the course on the mayonnaise side of the game
Lol, now we got fake black people in the comments. The Alt right are getting desperate becuz they know Gamergate 2 will FAIL just like the first one haha 🤣😂
Also see the entire character of Sarah Morgan in Starfield. In a Bethesda game no one expects well written characters, but she is written in a way that feels like 7 different groups had a had in her dialog and none of them talked.
they literally said they don't want our money. then they started complaining when we decided to not buy their games and instead spend our money on more important things. they forgot that the most important thing to not ever do is pi*s off the majority of the customer base they rely on for a income. they are now living in the consequences of their own actions. nobody is forcing us to buy their games and they are finally learning that.
Video games can not have a "diversity problem" per se. There is no diverity problem. There are scenarios where it makes sense to have ONLY certain types of characters. Sometimes only white people, sometimes only white males, sometimes only blacks, asians or all of them. It depends on the genre and the style of writing, the kind of culture the game is based on. There is no space for black people in " the witcher 3 " since it is based on old polish folklore, written in times where there were only white people in poland. So this style is supposed to be continued. There is a TON of space for black people in a game which will come out from an african developer one day and will deal with african folklore. So simple. No one NEEDS diversity. You can have it in GTA. Or you can NOT have it like in LOTR.
what I dont understand is why, if they want black characters can they not just set it in Africa or with Japanese people, Japan, I didnt see anyone complaining there werent any black people in Ghost of Tsushima
@priestofthighs3013 because it was a fictional story taking place during a historical era. High fantasy always has the inclusion problem due to be completely fictional without historical timelines.

Unless you go into the genres and pretend to do a good thing. You don´t want to delete them! You want to make culture better! So you diversify "only". And everything becomes the absolutely same. Diversity is gone. The culture changes into something which plays by your rules. Everything will be the same w0k3 agenda everywhere and will delete proper culture by replacing it with "progressive, stunning and brave, modern....." destructive propaganda.

There never was a problem. I been around since the early days of gaming like the `90s. Whites and blacks, etc got on better than ever before, But the politicians and certain agencies decided to create problems and blew it all out of proportion. They aimed at the really young, easily tricked ones who don't remeber the `90s, etc at all. Gaming got the brunt of it. I shook my head as I saw it get worse and and worse. even spoke out about it. Even when they found out I was black and didn't agree, they just dismissed me as an `aberration`. I will never be a part of this woke crap, it's all but ruined the good times of gaming.

What happened was that it got popular. Not just popular, it become the MOST popular entertainment medium, beating out movies, radio, literature and comics, it exploded into major, mainstream industry that was worth billions and had millions of eyes on it. When something like that happens, it gets attention, because it has that much attention on it. The controversy isn't coming from inside this industry, not at its roots, it's coming from outside, people trying to force their way in, trying to reach the maximum number of people by using the medium that's overtaken all the others so that what they want to have heard and seen will be seen and heard by the most possible people.
They make up issues and controversies that weren't there, or were easily debunked years ago before the industry had its big boom. They want to change the history to gain ground on it, make claims that things were always this way, that problems had always existed, that even people that were never interested in it before were always there from the start. It's been an ongoing battle for years, they don't want to lose this ground. They took over so many other industries and now they have this one that they didn't pay enough attention to, dismissed as children's entertainment that wouldn't gain the popularity and mainstream appeal that it has. They were wrong and now they're aggressively trying to make up for that oversight. That's all what this is, it's just people that were late to the show wanting to get their claws into it.
Our job is to push them back, keep them out, this industry has never needed their input, their ideologies or their influence, and instances where they've gotten in have only been bad for it. We've had major steps BACK as opposed to forward and we had our hands full enough with corporate greed diminishing the quality of the end product to have to worry about it being a major culture war because some hivemind didn't take it seriously enough over twenty years ago.

I'm calling it, this is the beginning of the collapse for AAA studios - there are too many parallels of this current gaming climate compared to the crash in 1983. Some of the details are different, of course, but the general atmosphere is very similar; SBI could turn out to be the Atari E.T. that triggers the Crash of 2024.
sweet baby is the type of person who call for there enemies to be cancelled and then throw a tantrum when it happens to them
None of these people/companies can survive without OUR money.
They're about to discover this fact. Will be so enjoyable to see!
They're about to discover how capitalism works
@@Tony_ManOh so true!
Funny thing is, they'll go out of their way to NEVER learn. They will keep pushing this stuff to their own demise. lol
True, without us gaming companies will be nothing if the argument continues.
@@brentdye1504 Oh, it'll continue. Bank on it. Propagandists gotta propagandize. lol
@@endy5enduros307 You don't understand.
This boycotting was more of the harrasment campaign against the gaming companies.
what steam should have done is perm ban, straight out delete all of their accounts, every single person who reported Kabrutus and his group.
there is by far enough games in our libraries to last for years, and theres many indie devs who dont bend over for the woke, there is many of us who is able to dev our own non-woke games, many of us have the head to learn and make our own games to self publish, we the gamers dont need the big dev's, they need us, we dont need the big publishers, they need us, without us they are nothing, without our money they are in the red, we are the only ones here with power.
I still remember back in 2000, a supervising marketing colleague required me, a designer of a web solution company, steal a stock photo of a black male and remove watermarks, skin colour and his P. Why didn’t her asking for a white male in a license-free photo? BTW, she used “Ginger” as name at work…🤷🏻♀️
These people are God tier level Gaslighters
You'll come to learn that about Jews

Vote with your wallets, gamers. Don't buy anything those politician wannabees touch.
Will not work. They are creations of your governments and three letter agencies. You are all being psyoped
Girls have been gaming for the longest time, from arcades to home consoles. I remember playing street fighter and mortal combat in the arcades when I was a kid, as well as teenage mutant ninja turtles, etc…..
I guess none of sweet baby inc members knew that, let alone were they around. As a girl I’ve been a gamer and have played on pretty much every system from PC to NES Atari and Calico, and so on.
I only purchase modern triple A games after they are fully patched and go on sale for 25 or less. I'm not interested in paying 100 bucks or more to be a beta tester.
