I think they are mentally ill and want to influence the young generation by infusing games with propaganda and brainwashing shit.

>Bonnie (((Ruberg)))

Is this, dare I say it, a pure coincidence?

GDC have been shit for a few years, few things are actually about games nowadays on that event. Only noticeable good that came out last year was the diablo 2 panel with David Brevik.

>videogames are political

I'm curious to know what this person thinks the politics of Donkey Kong Country are.

I wonder (((who))) will delete this thread

Don't discuss anything related to the infiltration of your hobby by literal cancer, go- guys

>the (((bergs))) are after our vidya
jest fuck off already

Fun fact: A certain group of shitstirrers has discussed GDC and regards it as a 'subverted' venue. They are very happy that their members have been putting in 'good work' pushing their ideology there and making it an 'unsafe space' for anyone or any discussion that doesn't play by their rules.

They have bragged about 'compromising' GDC staff and apparently have people high up on their board which is why it's changed to a propaganda venue in such a short time, and why these socjus indoctrination 'talks' are given preference over actual, relevant game development talk.

That's all I'll say on the matter. Just know that the takeover of video games is still happening whether you notice it or not.

I see, they are going out of their way to kill the industry just a day sooner.
The bad news is, that I have to research every game I plan on buying, though Sup Forums will make sure I know it's political message whether I want to or not.
The good news is, I'm going to save time and money.

Why the fuck is the least serious and least mature of all media treated like it's the exact opposite?

The only way you could possibly argue that all vidya is political is if you hold the view that EVERYTHING is political, in which case it's a moot point.

At which point did it become so trendy to be moronic?

something something sexism
something something racism

candy is a negative female stereotype
no female leads
apes ridicule africans

who fucking knows

>source: "trust me i know a guy"

>video game students
who gives a shit, they will never make games.

Why are the mods so keen on shutting these threads down but the Link /lgbt/ threads are up?

>everything is political
These people need to be barred from any management or creative position.

Believe me or not if you want

Ignoring them won't make them go away though

Good luck trying to convince people who aren't looking for debate or logic they are wrong with words though.

You fucking morons always fall for these retard threads. One guy posts the most obnoxious panels and then you all run around like retards crying that vidya is doomed and infiltrated by pink-haired harpies.

Here's the full fucking list of panels at GDC 2017. You can even sort it by type to see exactly what event you want to go to. Notice that most of them are NOT retarded SJW shit.

schedule.gdconf.com/list

Yeah, the difference becomes very noticeable when you compare Jap and western games. There is a hijacking taking place. And the left will spare no victims opposing them.

How long until the japanese game industry is compromised?

>Teaching students how to make socially aware games

For what purpose?

>video games are political

No there aren't, nor should they be. When politics and narrative overshadow actual gameplay (mechanics, playability, etc), you've already ruined your game. No one wants to play a ham-fisted story about gender confused aliens from a different island.

Seriously. I challenge you fuckers to make a game with completely neutral avatars (3D stick figures for example) and make it fun, without use of any sort of story or character signifiers whatsoever.

Hint: it may have to be combat or puzzle based, which require skillfully crafted mechanics to accomplish.

What's that? You can't make a game without a story tacked onto it?

Sounds to me like you don't know what actually makes games fun.

May I suggest removing yourself from game development completely so that people who actually know how to make games can do so without getting forced out?

Thx.

RIP Western culture

>Brevik

Didn't that guy go to jail for murder or something?

Not going to happen.

Well it's in a powerpoint slide so it has to be true

>going to school to learn how to make games
Fucking kek. If you don't make games in your spare time from your 150k engineering job you literally fucked up in life.

Sure glad I just pirate everything AAA and just buy indie.

He was a right wing, white-supremist terrorist who killed a lot of people in Denmark.

>videogames are political
they dont have to be if they dont want to.

not ever game needs to send some half-ass political statement.

That's Breivik, only thing this man could kill is pixels.

indie is the most infested faggot.

Indie games are more political than AAA

Not likely.

Only if you buy from Tumblr faggots. Haven't bought a SJW infested indie game literally ever and they're almost all I play.

They're trying to with anime. I think someone has already set up an office with the guise of "we're just here to talk".

Weeks later Japan proposed to shut down useless degrees in their colleges like gender studies. The absolute madmen.

Norway

>communists
>people

lol

He blew up the chantry.

Um...no.

The way we teach our students to make games is methodical. Whatever politics this ratbag is projecting comes from the home or life experience, not the schools.

>I don't know what communism is

That's OK user. Just do some reading before commenting next time. Cheers!

I am angered beyond the point of words.

I can't even think of a simple shitpost to condense my rage into.

lmao

Yeah because video games were ever the height of western culture

You people are hilarious

Moron Sup Forumstards? In MY Sup Forums?

It's more likely than I fucking thought, apparently.

What's exactly controversial about these statements?

2 nukes were not enough.

if you try to take Sup Forums

we vote right wing

:)

eventually we will reclaim what you've destroyed and build it better + impervious to your marxism

every thought and position is a political one.
every value you imprint into something has political repercussions.

I just don't care about the ones coming from fucking video games

>laffypole thinking they're welcome anywhere outside the designated tumblr boards

It's not yours, as much as commies like you want to take private property for yourselves

Is this image political, Sup Forums?

CHECKMATE FAGGOT

How long will this politically correct shit will last?

They can be a political statement but don't have to be.

I think that if someone wants to use his game as a channel for preaching then he's welcome to do so but I wouldn't call it a sound business strategy.

Then again, Goodkind's works made it to bestsellers, didn't they?

How long will Sup Forums shitposting last?

killing the aaa industry from the inside

the depiction of african americans as jungle dwelling animals is very political user

No, quite the opposite. That's the point, you illiterate. These socjus creeps are trying to turn it into some highbrow medium.

it might be connected to the pedogate shit trump is investigating

maybe he can get rid of them

That rather than inspiring people to create something out of love of the industry, they chose rather to demonize something simply because it exists.

When you do that, your creation comes with a message of hatred and malice. And the creators become bitter themselves as they slave away on something born of bigotry.

And the end result is resentment from the groups it was aimed at, and all this just causes a storm of anger and hate between all parties.

They could have put, "Create something new or different in your game!"

Instead they chose to single out something, someone and make them an enemy, a target.

I'm sorry you couldn't see what is wrong woth this or why it's harmful.

>political
What an asinine statement.

Video games will always be influenced by two things; the director/devs' personal beliefs, and the current consumer mindset. The former because, like any artform that relies on creativity even a little, the point is relaying some kind of message/truth/concept wrapped up in layers of entertainment. The latter, because like any product, you are trying to sell as much as possible to a select audience and therefore will match that product's themes and attributes to what the audience wants to see.

Calling it 'political' is fucking ridiculous, that's like saying "EVERYONE LIKES FUTAS LATELY, SO WE'LL PUT A FUTA IN THE GAME! POLITICAL AGENDA, POLITICAL AGENDA!"

>everything that doesn't agree with my preconceptions is shitposting

>anyone i disagree with for any reason is a marxist/communist/socialist/liberal/insert buzz word

Jesus. How's that persecution complex going, snowflake? Do you need a safe space?

lol

will you be saying that when Trump makes game development White again?

SAVAGE

Can somebody tell me what happened to Sup Forums? Wasn't this supposed to be a bastion of free speech? I get the feeling that moderators are trying to tell us what to think

it's going pretty well and we're winning the culture war thx

This thread is a bunch of Sup Forums fags claiming video games aren't political.
Why, then, are Sup Forumsfags shitting up Sup Forums?

i don't even know how to read your posts anymore, Sup Forums

>anyone who I disagree with is a commie/buzzword/marxist/socialist/feminist/the boogeyman

The conspiracy theory is strong with this one. EVERYONE'S OUT TO GET YOU AND THEY ARE ALL IN CAHOOTS user!

Games aren't inherently political but there's nothing wrong with using them as a platform to voice a political opinion.

>the point is relaying some kind of message/truth/concept wrapped up in layers of entertainment
>Calling it 'political' is fucking ridiculous

>berg
Every fucking time.

You're retarded. Have you ever read a book by a great writer before?

move to venezuela

>X posts something I don't agree with
>therefore X must be a shitposter from a board I don't like

Fucking savage.

Sup Forumstards BTFO

MY SIDES HOW WLL THEY EVER RECOVER

Like Hotline Miami, Brigador, Tales of Majyal, Darkwood and so on and so forth?

indie games are the best right now

They're just reflection of what seems "right" to mainstream in public discourse.
Question is how many will turn coat to get in good graces with "new" (face of the) establishment.

That's Breivik.

Breivik ,and variations like Brevik, are very common in Norway. We even have businesses, streets and roads named that for hundreds of years.
None of them lost any business or chanhed their name, because we're not retarded reactionaries.

Why? I'm not a socialist/communist/leninist/marxist nor even a fucking Liberal

It's all in your head Sup Forumstard.

>This thread is a bunch of Sup Forums fags claiming video games aren't political.

More like they are reacting to the claim that video games *are* political.

Notice that the picture in the OP is literally just statements presumed as fact, in a Orwellian manner.

only the greatest author of all time hp lovecraft

That reminds me, Will Wright's Spore talk from GDC was 12 years ago.

>Making a political statement is Orwellian

Well didn't take long for someone to reference 1984.

And we've already had Sup Forumstards calling people commies.

Now just waiting for someone to call someone else Hitler.

>Everyone I don't like is Sup Forums WAAAAAAAAAAAH

What does "political" means in this context?

>Notice that most of them are NOT retarded SJW shit.

The fact that SOME of them are retarded SJW shit is worrisome user.

can you redditors learn how to not double space your sentences
thanks

I DON'T WANT THEIR KEKED POLITICAL VIEWS.

I WANT GOOD GAMEPLAY AGAIN.
I WANT GOOD WRITING FOR ONCE.
I WANT THEM TO KEEP THEIR MENTAL ILLNESS AT HOME AND DO THEIR FUCKING JOBS.

How is that NOT Orwellian?

It's very directly invoking the clean and direct rhetoric of 1984.
Short, poignant, commanding, and obviously self-destructive.
Ignorance is Strength.
Listen and Believe.

Doesn't help that it's being preached by a scam artist on a great big projected screen over a crowd of impressionable idiots.

it means use your games to promote non-whites and to complain about capitalism. you should be hip to this by now

He is a mobile posters.
Mobile posters are the reason why Sup Forums is even worse shithole than it was before.

Well answer me then.

What the fuck does politics have to do with video games? And why is it necessary to inject politics into video games at a video game conference?

There's literally no reason to, and yet they do it anyway.

Don't buy American and Western European games then. Slavs and Japs make non political games. Except for MGS but that guy might as well be American by now.
