Sterdust and liberalism in gaming journos Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:17:29 No.2678 [Reply]

Recently people like Sterling and Schreier actually made a lot of shit that actually came close to class concious. Especially about gaming escapism and the kind of "anti-political" hypocrite mentality, showing that most rightoid actually DOES want politics in their games, but their kind of politics like having CoD imperialism simulator and America wank. Like this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q2ibrU5Xpg
>The "it's optional" reasoning is only applicaple to consummer products like games but not the entire system of capitalism
>every criticism exist in its own bubble is practically applicabe to most defenders of neoliberalism
Why can't these people just connect the dots and see all of this is a systematic problem with capitalism itself? Or do they actually know it but choose to remain silent because themselves are afraid of alienating the normies?

/leftypol/ Plays Together Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:24:15 No.6059 [Reply]

Enough of single-game and single-player threads, we're doing One Big Thread for games to play together!

Suggest games to play, say what games you like/have, et cetera, here.

As OP I'll just put this chart I made years ago on old leftypol.

My suggestions are;
Wargame: EE/AB/RD
Battlefield something
Hearts of Iron
Red Orchestra/Rising Storm
Minecraft (not for me but I know a lot of people like it)

Not like it's mandatory to play a WW2/Cold War/Modern war game but just the first things that come to mind. What do you like to play anon?

Well they really fucked up then, because coming off of hardcore Perfect Dark sessions (where you intentionally disable autoaim so you can get headshots easier) I knew something was fucked with the aiming the very first day I played Halo.

Hopefully the standards of prize events in the Loicenced Kingdom will continue being irrelevant within the general industry as companies are likely perceptive to the detrimental risk to the appeal of their goods that following such a framework would possibly bring.

The only series I can think of that doesn't do that is STALKER, where the SVD actually owns.

On a similar note:
>Fire a shotgun
>It has an effective range of like 10 feet
STALKER also thankfully averts this, as does Far Cry 3 from what I recall.

The main appeal is a shitload of hidden triggers which change a myriad of things, your actions having direct impact and having ripples across the game world. The whole cryptic atmosphere was the main draw, before it got datamined to all hell. The only other game that did something like this was probably Silent Hill 2.

I don't mind this trope if "cursed/evil" items, enchantments/magic, etc actually have a negative aspect to your character using them. Then it becomes a question of is the risk/benefit worth it? Also "evil" stuff that is just better is boring. What's the point of it being evil then?

Yeah you can tell the extent of Kojimmy's hollywood poisoning on its portrayal of russians in these games.

A russian Hind-D in MGS1 being in an American military base to serve as a boss fight for no reason.
The enemy soldiers in MGS2 are russian despite both the tanker and the plant being american property located in fucking NYC.
MGS3 features soviets as enemies and has the KGB and GRU fighting each other in gunfights wtf? Also Volgin is by far the most deranged villain the series bar none and he happens to be soviet russian hmm curious.
PW Zadornov was a complete caricature but I'll give that a slight pass because everything in that game was absurd.

Granted, americans tend to serve as "bigger" badguys but that's always portrayed as a twist.

were there any russians in MGS4? I kinda deleted that game from my mind
