1
00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:02,280
in the past I made the mistake of
2
00:00:02,280 --> 00:00:03,720
thinking that video games were supposed
3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:04,980
to be fun
4
00:00:04,980 --> 00:00:07,379
my naive younger self foolishly played
5
00:00:07,379 --> 00:00:09,360
Grand Theft Auto with a smile on my face
6
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,219
as I plowed through pedestrians on the
7
00:00:11,219 --> 00:00:13,019
sidewalk when I should have done so
8
00:00:13,019 --> 00:00:14,820
while simultaneously mourning the fact
9
00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:16,800
that my very existence as a straight
10
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,720
white male has resulted in the
11
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,840
perpetuation of racist patriarchal and
12
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,699
homophobic systems that oppress people
13
00:00:23,699 --> 00:00:25,140
I've never met
14
00:00:25,140 --> 00:00:27,359
I'm just kidding by the way it's sad
15
00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:29,279
that I feel I have to say that
16
00:00:29,279 --> 00:00:31,800
but the way modern media is now you can
17
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,059
say the most outrageous things
18
00:00:33,059 --> 00:00:35,280
imaginable and people really can't be
19
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:36,300
sure
20
00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:38,219
the people most active in being offended
21
00:00:38,219 --> 00:00:40,920
are a vocal minority that have convinced
22
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,540
all the powerful institutions of Western
23
00:00:42,540 --> 00:00:45,600
society that they need to cater to them
24
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,940
as a result nearly all popular level
25
00:00:47,940 --> 00:00:49,800
media presents the same tired woke
26
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,420
opinion on everything
27
00:00:51,420 --> 00:00:52,860
and this has taken over the gaming
28
00:00:52,860 --> 00:00:55,079
industry entirely to the point that it's
29
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:56,579
pretty much impossible to be an open
30
00:00:56,579 --> 00:00:58,739
conservative and keep your job as a game
31
00:00:58,739 --> 00:01:00,780
journalist or developer
32
00:01:00,780 --> 00:01:02,699
the industry is a hive mind of radical
33
00:01:02,699 --> 00:01:05,040
leftist opinions that is completely out
34
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,600
of touch with the opinions of most of
35
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,000
its consumers take for instance the
36
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,580
outrage over days gone's protagonist
37
00:01:11,580 --> 00:01:14,280
John Ryan from IGN claims that he rolled
38
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,600
His Eyes Upon first sight of the
39
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,299
character because he was quote yet
40
00:01:18,299 --> 00:01:21,000
another Gruff white male protagonist
41
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,280
kotaku's Jason schreier similarly wrote
42
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,439
that he liked the protagonist despite
43
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:27,720
the fact that he was quote the typical
44
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,479
gruffle a white dude biker
45
00:01:30,479 --> 00:01:32,100
simply the fact that he was a straight
46
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:33,420
white male with masculine
47
00:01:33,420 --> 00:01:35,700
characteristics made these journalists
48
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:36,960
upset
49
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:38,820
what is especially annoying about this
50
00:01:38,820 --> 00:01:41,280
is that straight white male is likely
51
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,900
also a description of the majority of
52
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:44,100
Their audience
53
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:46,560
in other words the gaming industry hates
54
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,659
straight white men and wants their money
55
00:01:48,659 --> 00:01:50,700
consider also the ridiculous polygon
56
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:52,259
article complaining about the way from
57
00:01:52,259 --> 00:01:54,000
software writes women
58
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,100
a baffling paragraph is worth quoting in
59
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:58,619
full quote Millennia exemplifies the way
60
00:01:58,619 --> 00:02:01,079
from soft rights women in its games
61
00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:03,240
whether bosses or NPCs you meet in the
62
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,060
wild these women have a shared condition
63
00:02:06,060 --> 00:02:08,220
they exist in tragically declined worlds
64
00:02:08,220 --> 00:02:10,220
sharing a specific Brokenness
65
00:02:10,220 --> 00:02:13,920
disfigurement abandonment and loss
66
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:16,080
they are afflicted by gender and the
67
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:17,940
cure for when they are obstacles instead
68
00:02:17,940 --> 00:02:20,040
of mutely helpful is for the player to
69
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,900
enact succinct violence
70
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:23,879
it is a particular kind of idealized
71
00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:26,160
femininity as Fantastical as the
72
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,900
foreboding castles and giant trees
73
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:30,959
demure quiet void of needs or
74
00:02:30,959 --> 00:02:33,599
motivations an echoed presence of dolls
75
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:36,060
mothers and even helpmates who guide the
76
00:02:36,060 --> 00:02:38,879
player along their emotions are muted in
77
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:41,040
their more docile counterparts before
78
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,080
erupting into a shrieking horrifying
79
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,840
hysteria when encountered in combat
80
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,239
end quote this is delusional and
81
00:02:48,239 --> 00:02:50,400
completely unfounded this author is
82
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,900
scraping the bottom of the barrel for
83
00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:54,180
something to be offended by but this is
84
00:02:54,180 --> 00:02:55,680
unfortunately not unusual for game
85
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,300
journaling at this point
86
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:59,519
Gamespot likewise provided us with a
87
00:02:59,519 --> 00:03:01,620
laughably delusional take when its
88
00:03:01,620 --> 00:03:03,239
journals complained about the trauma of
89
00:03:03,239 --> 00:03:04,980
having a conservative Quest Giver in Far
90
00:03:04,980 --> 00:03:07,739
Cry 5. it wasn't enough for these out of
91
00:03:07,739 --> 00:03:09,420
touch bugmen that the character was
92
00:03:09,420 --> 00:03:11,099
clearly a caricature of a conservative
93
00:03:11,099 --> 00:03:13,920
which was maybe lost on them considering
94
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:15,599
how much of an echo chamber they are in
95
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:18,420
but they were confused and outraged that
96
00:03:18,420 --> 00:03:19,860
the character was someone they weren't
97
00:03:19,860 --> 00:03:21,840
supposed to be hostile toward
98
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,120
apparently even if the game is making
99
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,400
fun of conservatives that still isn't
100
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,920
enough anything less than shooting a
101
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:31,080
conservative NPC is traumatizing and
102
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,780
evil to these people let us also call to
103
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:35,700
mind the outrage when BioWare included
104
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:37,860
lesbian romance opportunities for pervy
105
00:03:37,860 --> 00:03:40,200
players who play as female Shepherd but
106
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,819
felt that a gay romance was not in
107
00:03:41,819 --> 00:03:44,580
character for the male Shepherd how dare
108
00:03:44,580 --> 00:03:46,260
they make a decision based on what they
109
00:03:46,260 --> 00:03:47,879
felt was most true to the character
110
00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:50,220
rather than exclusively pushing a
111
00:03:50,220 --> 00:03:51,840
political agenda
112
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,700
of course they caved in later Mass
113
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:55,680
Effect games and gave the option for a
114
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,659
gay Shepherd because when your primary
115
00:03:57,659 --> 00:04:00,060
motivation is money the loudest minority
116
00:04:00,060 --> 00:04:02,220
can get you to do whatever they want and
117
00:04:02,220 --> 00:04:03,900
even when conservatives or moderates are
118
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:05,879
even associated with a game without
119
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:07,799
influencing its content in any sort of
120
00:04:07,799 --> 00:04:10,140
political manner the cancel mobs need to
121
00:04:10,140 --> 00:04:11,340
draw blood
122
00:04:11,340 --> 00:04:13,080
we've seen this with the Hogwarts game
123
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,000
which has somehow more than stood strong
124
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,459
despite the boycotts we've seen this
125
00:04:17,459 --> 00:04:18,900
also with the people who tried to cancel
126
00:04:18,900 --> 00:04:21,419
Dan vavra from War Horse Studios for
127
00:04:21,419 --> 00:04:23,040
simply not going along with the woke
128
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,300
hive mind
129
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:26,100
though these instances have turned out
130
00:04:26,100 --> 00:04:28,680
alright thus far most of the woke mob's
131
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,479
victims haven't been so lucky
132
00:04:30,479 --> 00:04:33,300
take John Gibson CEO founder and
133
00:04:33,300 --> 00:04:35,639
co-owner of tripwire interactive who was
134
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:36,840
forced out of the company after
135
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:38,759
expressing pro-life views
136
00:04:38,759 --> 00:04:40,919
or consider similar instances with Casey
137
00:04:40,919 --> 00:04:43,320
holling's head from obsidian Cara Lynn
138
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,419
from limited run games and Simon
139
00:04:45,419 --> 00:04:47,280
chilinski the sound designer for
140
00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:48,660
subnautica
141
00:04:48,660 --> 00:04:50,460
all these people were forced out for
142
00:04:50,460 --> 00:04:52,560
simply not being woke enough
143
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,960
at this point it doesn't seem that media
144
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,520
companies in general even care about
145
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,620
making good products anymore let alone
146
00:04:58,620 --> 00:05:00,180
well-crafted art
147
00:05:00,180 --> 00:05:02,820
everything has been she-hulked you like
148
00:05:02,820 --> 00:05:04,199
the theme of wholesome friendship and
149
00:05:04,199 --> 00:05:06,840
stranger things well think again because
150
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:08,520
now will is gay
151
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,900
you like the problem solving and
152
00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:12,000
Leadership of Fred from Scooby-Doo
153
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,440
well now he's an incompetent white
154
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,139
supremacist you love that Tolkien wrote
155
00:05:16,139 --> 00:05:17,940
of galadriel's power in such a way that
156
00:05:17,940 --> 00:05:19,620
still emphasized and exalted her
157
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:20,940
femininity
158
00:05:20,940 --> 00:05:22,680
well too bad because now she's just a
159
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,300
badass with no flaws or
160
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:26,340
personality whatsoever
161
00:05:26,340 --> 00:05:28,080
it's tiring seeing character after
162
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,000
character get a meaningless race swap or
163
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,199
come out as gay
164
00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:33,060
not because it contributes to the story
165
00:05:33,060 --> 00:05:35,340
but simply because the writers hate the
166
00:05:35,340 --> 00:05:36,960
straight white males who make up a good
167
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,639
portion of Their audience
168
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:40,440
they think their consumers are ignorant
169
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,660
bigots and that it is their job as
170
00:05:42,660 --> 00:05:44,820
enlightened listeners of NPR to educate
171
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:47,100
the masses and cancel them if they can't
172
00:05:47,100 --> 00:05:49,860
be educated they will destroy anyone who
173
00:05:49,860 --> 00:05:52,080
gets in the way of their agenda to force
174
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,820
the world into submission to their woke
175
00:05:53,820 --> 00:05:56,400
dogma and they will hypocritically do so
176
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,520
in the name of diversity tolerance and
177
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,780
inclusion
178
00:06:00,780 --> 00:06:03,120
the woke mob has taken over media and
179
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,220
especially the video game industry and
180
00:06:05,220 --> 00:06:07,440
it's ruined everything nothing can be
181
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,720
fun anymore protagonists must all be
182
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,940
annoying or flat female characters
183
00:06:11,940 --> 00:06:14,520
White characters must be evil or else be
184
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,840
portrayed as repenting of their
185
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:16,860
whiteness
186
00:06:16,860 --> 00:06:18,720
all conservative characters must be
187
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,100
killed on site
188
00:06:20,100 --> 00:06:22,319
any dissenting opinions must be silenced
189
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:24,539
and any game developers who dare to
190
00:06:24,539 --> 00:06:26,819
resist the hive mind must have their
191
00:06:26,819 --> 00:06:28,680
livelihoods ruined
192
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,139
that is the video game industry today
193
00:06:31,139 --> 00:06:33,360
I'm tired of it and I think a lot of
194
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,340
other people are tired of it too
195
00:06:35,340 --> 00:06:36,960
My Hope Is that more and more people
196
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,880
within the industry decide to speak out
197
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,919
and that people of differing opinions
198
00:06:40,919 --> 00:06:43,440
from the presently dominant voices start
199
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,180
to band together and help support each
200
00:06:45,180 --> 00:06:48,120
other's projects otherwise the
201
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,919
creativity of the gaming industry will
202
00:06:49,919 --> 00:06:51,900
continue to be choked out if you're
203
00:06:51,900 --> 00:06:53,340
tired of wokeness in the video game

00:06:53,340 --> 00:06:55,319
