Finns are Mongoloids that got Scandinavized over a few hundred years. Fact.

The Finns were subject to both Russian and Germanic influences, but yes, they are now Indo-Europeanized. Like Hungarians.
Russian influence was NEVER big in finland. Grand duchy of finland kept most of its autonomy and it was also not ruled for that long. Only russian influence there is the rampant alcoholism and depression.

So the pillars of Finnish culture, right?



You can never fathom the Finnish mindset, fag.

Is this the latest The Room game? It has those vibes, just more pretentious. Pretentious project by untalented people who can't understand their own ineptitude and bizarre nature and execution of their vision that think it's deep and poignant when it's actually shallow, meandering and pointless.

At least The Room was funny.

It was probably mentioned here already, but today I learned about Sweet Baby Inc., a Canadian ESG company that is hired by gaming companies to write stories, consult etc. about how to make the games more incloosive. A surefire way to tell that a game will be shit.

Since they seem to be rising in prominence in the AAA industry, it might be a good idea to keep a list updated, to know what games to avoid in the future.

It's disappointing to see Heart Machine there when Hyper Light Drifter was such a great example of a game made by a raging lefty who was able to put his politics aside within the game. That now looks to have just been a byproduct of the premise: a game without words.

Let's return to games that focus on gameplay above all.

Alan Wake needs to be put to sleep.

It's easy when you pick up on the patterns. If a character is raceswapped, no matter from what race or to what race but especially a non-black race to black, you're in for a bad time. It's always always always done the exact same way.

But another pattern is that even the lack of the raceswap or wokeness wouldn't fix the game itself. It's still dumb fuck character 1 bumbling around linear levels looking for clues that you can't miss and don't need while occasionally switching to dumb fuck character 2 bumbling around a poor man's Silent Hill interrupted by one of the most shamelessly reddit sequences there's ever been in a game, see above. The game could be anti-woke and it'd still be shit to play, which is true of almost every woke game.

Does Alan Wake contain:
Survival Mechanics?
Horror Themes?

Is Alan Wake 2 a "Survival" + "Horror" + "Game"?

So these were the geniuses that stuck black people in God of War Ragnarok?

Good thing is apart from maybe Spiderman 2 I likely won't be playing any of those other games.

HLD was basically an indie self-parody so him doing this is not surprising.

HLD?
Hyper Light Drifter, Heart Machine's first game.
They also brought in Sarkeesian as a consultant after HLD released.

I almost died laughing when I played GOW Ranarok. There is a part near the end, after Ragnarok itself, were you go talk to the people who are going to lead the Aesir and Vanir and every single one is a woman. The only male that survives is the black dude lmao. Even the fucking dwarfs who help you and craft your stuff during the game are swapped for a female dwarf.

Sony first party output is literal cancer.
Is such a tragedy modern Sony only cares about their western IPs. Their Japanese output was so much more interesting.
Yes. Team ICO, quirky, interesting Japan Studio games like The Last Guy, Echochrome, Patapon and Tokyo Jungle... all lost to SJW 'cinematic' popamole.

Not to mention Japan Studio oversaw the development of Demon's Souls and Bloodborne. It wasn't all From.

Oh yes? Somehow I didn't notice anything complex or interesting about your way of thinking. Only excessive nervousness, depression and psychotic periods, which is typical both for alcoholics and in places where there is little sun during the year.

I like it. I like it when someone stands up for themselves, Lord knows there're enough of fragile pussies on Codex. You're okay in my book. Respect for you to stand up for yourself, unlike the French military ever did. You surpassed my view of Frenchies.

It was surprising, but...thank you.
