Why does one island produce great games yearly and the other's last good game was 11 years ago with Alien Isolation and have made nothing memorable since?

They made SoT though, matey.

>>22842520
I think the more fitting question is why does one small island have amazing trainlines, great cars AND dominate making videogames and electronics while another similar small island has the shittest train network known to man, old railways from the victorian era and their most recent good game is from over 10 years ago

It is on topic because British culture and soft power was everywhere in video games since their inception.
Now it's virtually non-existent outside of Japanese and European devs hiring British voice actors.

>"NUH-UH THOSE DON'T COUNT BECAUSE I SAID SO!"

All games are coded in English thoughbeit.

My town is recently been overrun with videogame tech companies, even Sony opened a second office. Except they are all unitt/network/QA/final touch team. The Sony near me basically is the pajeet clean up department including fixing UIs and weird compliance stuff.
Also if you wonder controller screens and shit all look the same it's because the top office near me is dedicated to telling indie developers their controller image is not allowed.

>>22842520
Because the US bought out the UK tech industry and British devs just work for American companies instead as it pays infinitely better. The British Government didn't do nearly enough to support the video game industry until recently but there are some big studios still.

>>22842522
Here's the issue with the railway network in the UK: It was the first of its kind in the world. The problem with this is also that it was the first of its kind in the world; while other countries used new technology. Europe was devastated after WW2 so it just ripped everything up and started over. Japan was late to the party and consequently had an easier time. What this means is that for the UK it is infinitely cheaper to just maintain the old network than rip everything out and start over. This in itself is pretty impressive to somehow be able to maintain old tech that is 200 years old and keep it in working condition. No British Government has the will to want to fix the rail network. The idea is "if it isn't broke, leave it the fuck alone".

>>22842509
>British cultural influence is dead (suicide).
That's what nearly two decades of being ran by conservatives who don't care about anything except making themselves and their friends richer will do to a country.

>>22842530
The British VA industry is booming. American VA's committed collective suicide with their brainrot politics, "unions" (lmao) and mental illness so nobody will touch them. Now when it comes to wanting "English voices", everyone goes for the Brits. The best part is that the Brits can do a damn fine American accent too when needed. The inverse isn't true even remotely.

>>22842522
It's easier and cheaper to introduce newer tech where older versions just don't exist instead of modernizing. That's why fax is still used in Japan.

>>22842518

There is no work in the UK that isn't a deadend service job, a bullshit email job or a 'job' shifting other people's money around thanks to people with your mindset though.

>>22842503 (OP)
the anglosphere out performs the rest of the world combined when it comes to everything. literally everything. literature. cinema. games. not just culture. technology, economy, military. complete and total domination ever since the industrial revolution.

the only way any of you can cope with this is by dividing us by nationality. i feel sorry for you. i really do. there is a master race and its the anglo saxons. thats why you all speak our language, emulate our dress and our governmental structure.

Pretty much this, even reform is a massive fucking joke. Anyone willing to trust Nigel Farage has actual braindamage, he is a grifter to the core.

Because the UK is owned by big business. Mostly "American" big business though there's certainly other foreign entities. When you see that American tech companies like Amazon get away with borderline treason you just have to ask the question "Why?" and everything makes sense. The British government is not for the people and never has been. We've always been a class-based society and the British working class exist only to serve their superiors. The Empire was built solely to benefit the upper-classes and nouveau riche. It's never changed. The Victorian times never ended. 99% of the British population got nothing out of the Empire and yet we are taught in schools to feel guilty about it, even though our ancestors at the time were barely scraping by and losing their fingers in factories. Again you only need to ask the question "Why?" as tens of thousands of third world immigrants flood the borders every single day. England died in 1066 when its true native rulers were taken over by, ironically, foreigners.

>>22842522
>>22842537
>why are Britain's railways bad?
They were the best in the world once upon a time, and for a very long time.
Then the Beeching cuts happened.
Now, to be fair to Beeching, he recommended cuts were inevitable because rail was running at a loss.
But he also recommended that you shouldn't make massive cuts without investing massively in roads and bus services.
But the cuts were made without the other investments and people's frustrations were made worse by strikes in the 1970s.
Then Thatcher decides to commit to the second-largest privatisation project in European history (second only to 1930s Germany) and also go all in on the American dream of being able to drive wherever you want.
So massive investments in highways, except we're not as big as America, so that's lots of land being used for cars to sit in traffic (instead of housing) + pollute the air, and 'who cares about rail (or council houses)?' bc let the private sector and markets worry about it.
Then you have several rail disasters because that's what happens when you introduc the profit motive, so now taxpayers subsidise the railways, subsidise railway losses, and because the private train companies are owned by foreign countries, the profit of every expensive train ticket you buy in the UK goes to improve national rail services in Europe/Asia.

>>22842530
>Now it's virtually non-existent outside of Japanese and European devs hiring British voice actors
Lad...

>>22842562
Honestly if Reform actually went all in on the nationalism angle and "taking back control" of the country instead of what they are now, I'd be all in on it. But Nigel is a foreign puppet like the rest so unfortunately that entire angle has been co-opted. Almost as if by design.

What an absolute state the UK is. Good video games though.

>>22842569
Please read the parenthesis around "unions". That is absolutely nothing compared to SAG-AFTRA. Not even remotely the same. British unions are actual unions. American unions are Mafias.

Don't forget how Labour also tried to make the protests last year into "racist thugs" and began the whole two-tier policing scandal. This government might have decent foreign policy to navigate Trumps tantrums but domestically they are treasonous and need to be roped. Unfortunately the alternatives are even more grim.

>>22842592
I was more referring to the mass rape of little girls by foreign men and the need to deport them, to close off our borders and take care of our own. You know, actual problems not airy fairy 'safe' problem you want to make up because you don't have any problems in your life.

Only months later to admit in fact he had an Al Qaeda terrorist manual in his home, had tried to kill people days before, spoke about wanting to kill people while he was at school, Prevent and the government knew all about him.

200 days in solitary confinement, the problem with Tommy is that he's said a lot of really tough shit for any politician to take in and accept. They have to oppose him to some degree because their political careers will end completely, I stand with Tommy but you have to understand politics in regards to what you're willing to take a beating over. If he said "i hate muslims" and someone agrees with him then that someone is going to go down on every news channel as a racist because "he hates muslims even if they've done no wrong and condemn the wrong doing of others" just because they said they support Tommy. It's about rhetoric and having that used against you, you need a clean a slate as possible to stand against anyone politically in this country

He was being sarcastic...

as a Bong, talking about politics has gotten so tiresome
I know two people IRL that are hard right, but it's still tiresome
the third-world is being imported to create chaos and little more. the unfair treatment in regards to two-tier policies, immigrants being given houses and so forth, it's all to drive up resentment and hatred, stoking the flames of war
the end goal is Digital ID and ultimately more control, which Blair seems extremely concerned in trying to push through. the only problem is that they can't just say 'we want Digital ID to track your every move', they have to make the public want it
how do they do that? by pushing people into a brutal civil war so that people beg for a means of control and order. it's providing pre-prepared solutions to the problems the government created
obviously the 'new English' won't ever accept Digital ID or any of the other means of control, but it should be obvious that it's not about tracking them, it's about tracking the natives (who also have higher quality of life standards and expect higher wages, not happening)

>>22842631

I guess sarcasm doesn't work on internet that well. But genuine retardation and jokes are hard to tell apart these days so I give you that. I do see people from UK defending Russia as based western civilization saving badass country and Putin as masculinity incarnated.

It's called a strike. Strikes are designed to bring things to a halt, showing how important those on strike are to the everyday running of things.
You 'working lads' need to get your act together and stop disrespecting your ancestors who stood up to the elites that try to exploit them.
Stop listening to divide and conquer grifters like Tommy Robinson and read a book or two. You'll find out who you should be directing your rage towards, rather than making up some ficticious 'middle class twat' to get incensed about.
