Their games are ass, this don’t surprise me
I guess they are seeing what is happening to other DEI-heavy games. Pendulum swung too far into one direction and it’s starting to come back.
Fuck off, bigot.
I always chuckle when I hear/see the B world. lol It vibes like yall are afraid to use other insults so you use the B word for everything. Bitgot this, bitgot that, you are a bigot, they are bigots, everyone who is not left is a bigot. lol
Yall can dislike all you want, but we all know a lot of people out there are not fans of DEI ideology. You can say they are wrong, you can say they are immoral, but that doesn’t change the fact people have started to have serious negative feelings towards DEI stuff - and companies are noticing it.
Companies want money, they don’t give a shit about DEI. They only have a shit about it when it was beneficial to them and their pocket. DEI went hard when it used to pump their stock cause ESG and shit - it ain’t like that no more. People are starting to dislike it and it’s only gonna get more intense.
As time goes on DEI will be affecting company earnings negatively more and more - and thus they will stop the DEI stuff. SIMPLE.
It’s true and we all know it. Love or hate DEI - it’s increasingly declining, and the simple reason is - common man ain’t a fan of it.
Other DEI heavy games like LoL, that have been wildly successful for years.
Did Lord of the lidl 2 even feature any of that? If not it doesn’t seem the have helped them.
Say what you will about the woke gaming agenda, I love to see a company brave enough to take this stance. It’s refreshing to see a publisher wear its beliefs on its sleeve because now I know that I don’t have to spend money on their trash games
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie
City Interactive and trash games have always been synonymous. They shortened their name to get rid of the mountain of trash they have produced, but it’s not working.
Good, I stand with them 100%. This Dei stupidity has gone far enough
Sir you can’t have this opinion on Lenmy/reddit. I fully agree with you that this forced DEI bs has to stop, but you can not say this stuff here without being down voted. Once again, I fully agree with you, this can’t blow over soon enough.
Thanks, and I don’t care about all the leftists/activists that live in their enclosed world that think that DEI works when it’s proven, in every company and product made, that it doesn’t.
Let them keep crying 😂
Windshield wipers were invented by a woman.
Automatic elevator doors were invented by a Black man.
Alan Turning.
But tell me again how diverse people don’t make successful products?
There’s not a point in arguing with fascists, they didn’t reach their worldview through an observation of reality and you won’t deprogram them over the internet.
For another matter, chances are these two idiots are just one idiot with a sock puppet.
Im just suck of the forced DEI crap in our entertainment products. There is nothing wrong with it, unless it’s forced like it has been for the last couple of years only to hit a checkbox for that sweet dei money.
I know nothing of the plot of that game but i bet you kill one or more corrupt kings and religious figures so im going to pre-emptively call it woke for pushing an anti religious and anti monarchal agenda
You’re almost certainly joking but also like … yeah everything has political subtext. A lot of Internet duds are just too stupid to read it.
I think most of the people mad on the Internet about this kind of thing couldn’t pass 12th grade English, and certainly not like a 200 level English Literature course.
Yeah, correct guess. In the game you kill the leader of the dominant religion (based on martyrdom and sacrifice) after they have refused to take action against the corruption in their own ranks, and allowed atrocities to be committed in the name of religion. Turns out (spoilers) that the head of the religion is also corrupt. Not really subtle, is it?
That’s just a pretty way of announcing you will be censoring your writers.
I want to make a game that doesn’t have a single straight white man in it, just to rustle the jimmies of these anti-woke wieners.
Apex Legends already exists.
I only played it on launch and I’m pretty sure the starting line up was mostly straight white dudes with a war crime fetish.
I was mostly only joking, but after having to look them up because I don’t really play it, only 4 of the 26 characters MIGHT be straight white men, assuming they are all straight, the rest are canonically not straight or not male or not white.
What would DEI even mean for this game? It looks like it’s about hooded and masked figures killing baddies in a medieval world.
It means no black people or women in power
Obligatory:
There are only two skin colors: White and political.
Two genders: Male and political.
Two sexual orientations: Straight and political.
Two religious beliefs: Christian and political.
Etc. pp.
You’re still doing that anti AI signature nonsense after all this time!? 🤣 My brother in Darwin… That text truly means NOTHING to the bots scraping the content.
Hmm, I thought I’d blocked all the people making uninformed comments about it by now. Glad I can add one to the list 🙂
making uninformed comments about it
I have a bot scrapping and feeding every comment of yours to 2 different LLMs without the AI warning link, so they’re absolutely correct that you’re wasting your time
And the fun part is that blocking this account won’t stop me <3
then you can block me too, i guess. AI companies literally use pirated media to train their models. If not even big publishing houses and studios can do anything against it, your little link will generate nothing but laughter
CI Games per the article. won’t be purchasing anything from them going forward.
Another video game company embraces bigotry because reasons.
So, they’re only going to make games with no narrative complexity going forward. Got it.
This statement outlines this developer’s sociopolitical agenda.
So the game is going to be completely lacking in story and motivations and dialogue? Cool flex?
Going out of your way to not include “any social or political agenda” is a social and political agenda.
It’s also fucking impossible if you’re telling a game with any kind of narrative at all. Based on Lords of the Fallen though, saying their games had a narrative is indeed a stretch.
