Steam curator warns players if Sweet Baby is involved in a game

LMAO,

Just saw that PCgamer had posted thier "preview", which reads more like an ad or press release, for this game. Titled "Dustborn let me smash fascists and flirt with with my situationship on a road trip across America". Fucken hell, here we go.


OMG, so brave!
Pax, a 30 something Black women covered in tattoos, is the fulcrum of the party, joined by her artist best friend Sai, on-again off-again fling Noam (they're a bit of a nonbinary stereotype, but I can’t say it’s untrue), and long-lost sister Ziggy. A dad-like figure, Theo, is the one heading up the smuggling operation, while a questionably sentient robot comes along as the driver and cook for the road trip. They’re also feared Anomals—who can harness the magical power of words after a mysterious event in the timeline's past.
Whatever it all adds up to in the end, the future is queer—if you're along for a ride.

Holy Jesus. If the future is indeed "queer" for the west, the enemies thereof have already won. Its crazy just how damn effective it was for them to play the long game and capture the institutions. Separate and erase the family, create reliance on the state, overtake the educational centers. Mix up the populations(oh noes replacement "theory").


Some curious quotes,

"Education is a weapon whose effects depend on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed,"

"Our program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism."

"The goal of socialism is communism,"

"Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted."
Vladimir Lenin

I know there were many offshoots and variations, with many historical groups(before and after) coming and going with the ebb and flow of time. Just something to ponder. To me, this is no mere coincidence but the culmination of some very effective revolutionary tactics learned over 100 years. It all comes back to instersectionality and the myriad heads that Hydra has. Its such a con. The peons do all the fighting and suffering just to hand over all their rights and freedoms to a new master, with the worst track record of any civilization or government type in human history. There is no parallel. Its never been tried? Bull. Its doing exactly what it was meant to do. Only now its incorporated a few new weapons into its arsenal.

This virus has poisoned the well of creativity, and its taken some time to reach other parts of the globe. Globalism helps immensely to achieve those aims. Educating ourselves and choosing to support what we think is right has perhaps never been more paramount.

Well said indeed. Yes, Dustborn is as woke as any game could get. Makes you want to throw up just watching the cringe trailer. That is the exact types of games these nut jobs love creating now. Always a black female lead, always weird sidekicks, always political references and shoving radical ideology into the game. Most gamers want nothing to do with that shite and sooner or later hopefully it dies off when sales have plummeted and these idiot companies realize people don’t want this garbage. One can hope.

So much truth in this post.

He heard “A” = good and can’t fathom that it has been colloquially accepted to mean something else in a specific industry.

Classic autist.

Also that stretch to abortion, wew lad
But if you guys took the time and tried to understand what he says you might realize that he is right (while at the same time you are not wrong either).

Never heard of Dustborn until now. Makes me wonder if there will be ANY member of NeoGAF who would buy it??? I hope not
 
I don’t mind games like Dustborn - it is telling a story with new characters. Where it is grating is when you have existing characters, who are then bent out of shape to tell a completely different story - losing the story coherence, previous character development and much of what made them interesting in the first place.

I wouldn't mind if they didn't take the funding off legit games. It's the same in literature. I don't mind if they publish this crap, the problem is that they do it to the detriment of legit ones because their goal is to push us out of business.

What does Sony mean by this? 🤔
There's a LOT to unpack here, so take your favorite mug, pour hot chocky-chocolate in it, and call your mom and dad to tell them to give you money to buy anticapitalist merch if, like me, you're real mad and need to calm yourself after reading such a bigoted comment.

Dark skin imply its more of a cultural thing than real anger so everything is fine.

Wonder if this is real, if so, PlayStation is all in on this. I’d assume if they have gotten to casting, it’s well underway.

Usually those who don't see what's going on refuse to because it collides with their world view, or bonafide ignorance/naivety.
I'm in the acceptance phase, but also hedging a bet on a radical* change within the next several months. We'll see. This hinges on the political, but, at this point, it can almost no longer be avoided.

Developers make the games they want and how is this not a "legit" game? I've seen the gameplay, it is definitely a game.
 
Yes,
The industry needs more Dustborns. I'm a big fan of people putting up their own capital to test their ideas on the open market. Infecting existing IPs with their bullshit is what is upsetting people.
Yes! Let the market decide. Who knows, maybe there is an actual audience for this game and if they enjoy it I'm happy for them. Some people think that making games for people who don't look, act or s*x like them is somehow bad.
