do developers and animators dread having to work on DEI games?
do you think they go oh not this again or are they just slave worker bees who just follow orders as long as they get a pizza party at the end of every month?
i've never met a game developer irl but i know they're one of the easiest types of employees to exploit.
imagine having to do the modeling and animation for this, there's no way anyone would be happy doing this.

They don't really have a choice, so the people who can't stand that shit choose another job, which leads to self segregation. Same in education, they have like 1 right wing teacher in Yale (which already sounds suspect), while all the rest is left/far left.

They're literally the whole reason the game is woke and filled with propaganda, so no, they don't dread working on them, only an small minority that hasn't spoken out in fears of losing their job do, but these studios do constant ethnic cleansings of people that aren't to the left of mao.

I've worked in these studios before, and here's why this happens:
>most western dev studios are in blue cities (LA, San Diego, San Fran, Seattle, and so on), which means the local talent are left-of-left liberals
>these people are typically a minority in studios, but they're loud enough to bully everyone because 'you don't want to be on the wrong side of history'-type nonsense
>HR doesn't care beyond making sure the company doesn't get sued, and since most of HR are women, they get swept up by the emotional appeals
>the meat and potatoes devs (75% of devs doing actual dev work and not make-work jobs the diversity hires usually occupy) don't care and just want a paycheck
>then, when industry layoffs got real bad in 2021, it just became 'I don't care how woke or shit the game is, I need the job because I want my salary and benefits package' and people just keep their heads down

Like other anons pointed out, in almost all studios, you don't get paid extra if you make a blockbuster hit. You might, at best, get some meager bonus of a few thousand on your next paycheck (fully taxed, goy), but that's it.

To a lot of devs, it's just a job you do from 9 to 6 and that's the end of it.

i got a few questions for you if you don't mind.
what compels someone to work in the gaming industry?
what's the environment like? is it similar to tech or is it closer to entertainment?

>what compels someone to work in vidya
Any number of reasons. Some people fall into the trap of 'I like playing games, so it stands to reason I should like making them,' some people can just do the work and want the job, some people like the working environment since it's tech, but more relaxed than a place like Amazon or Microsoft. Gaming is tech + entertainment in the same industry.
>what's the environment like
The intersection of tech and entertainment, like I said above. Studios can slide further into one or the other, but a general rule is that the bigger a studio gets, the more corporate and closer to a FAANG company it becomes. (HR rules on top of HR rules, heavy bureaucracy, and all that shit.)

For what it's worth, I wouldn't recommend anyone try to get a job in AAA right now unless you have a place come to you with a good offer in hand and some kind of guarantee of a year's worth of salary. (Super rare for that to happen, though.)

Can't really answer that anon. Going solodev means you either have a real job that's making cash to pay the bills, or you have enough money to take a few years off to make a game.

The main difference between the two is that in gamedev, you have a salary and probably a cushy, but stressful job. Going solo means you're almost certainly going to make no money (70% of games on Steam make $5k or less in lifetime sales), but if you do get lucky, you could make some decent cash.

You should look at your financial situation first and foremost, because that's going to be the biggest determinant in what you can actually do.

>>712855029
This is retarded nonsense and unless you've got a confirmed source, I don't believe it at all. The most likely explanation is that Capcom didn't put too much cash into the RE2 remake and stuff like spiders and the expanded sewer sections were cut. Fun fact, you can tell they saved money on modeling because tons of NPCs wear the exact same shoes (like the Chief and Birkin.)

Untrue, anon. The true dyed in the wool SJWs are a tiny minority, but they bully the regular SJWs and anyone else who disagrees with them, so it seems like they're more numerous. But, because you only need a few people to really poison company culture, their influence is a lot more cancerous than you think.

But there are based devs in AAA, trust me.

Oh, I get you. I think it could help to be exposed to a full production cycle on a game, but then again, if you can find a contemporary book, GDC/PAX/TED talk, or something where someone really goes through it, that might provide the same kind of info, just not being hands on in your case. But you'll want to compare a few different accounts, because every studio does things a little different.

Just be prepared, because gamedev is fucking difficult. Coming up with ideas or concept art and all that is easy and fun, but when it's time to start making assets, fixing bugs, or designing systems, that's where most people realize 'this sucks' and give it up. I've heard from anons in TV and film that it's similar there, too.

yeah. I won't say which game I worked on, but I made models for a game that gets made fun of for DEI shit on here pretty often.
We were given requirements to meet for the characters and designs, and I made my characters horribly ugly and retarded on purpose as a joke. They loved them.

If a decent looking character slips through the cracks, something just happens to go wrong in the animation department. Could be fucked up facial expressions, awkward and rigid movements.
I wouldn't say I hated working on it, it was a lot of fun seeing what I could get away with.

I don't have the picture saved, but there's a screenshot of a black woman complaining about how minority characters always end up ugly in video games. I bet whoever was behind the 3D models for that one was having an absolute riot making that character look atrocious.

It's kind of like a game "how shitty can I make this look before they realize something might be up?"
Luckily every decision maker is hopped up on prozac so they're rarely cognizant enough to give a shit.

>We were nearing the end of active work on design content for Dragon Age… there was still a lot more bug fixing/polishing/ and fill-content generation ahead but the core plot/writing and level design was finished. My work was rapidly shifting into that of reviewing what the team had put together.
>Discussion on Dragon Age 2 began around this time and looking ahead I knew that I wasn’t going to be satisfied with what Dragon Age 2 would be. Party control/tactical combat are huge factors in my enjoyment of a role-playing game as is adopting the role of the hero (i.e., customizing my character). I was fairly certain Dragon Age would transition towards more of a Mass Effect experience, which while enjoyable is not the type of role-playing game I play. Could I be the lead designer on such a title? Certainly… though if I were going to work on a game adopting a set-in-stone protagonist I’d rather work on something lighter, like a shooter.

I have no objective proof of this but I do believe the western games industry is both ideologically captured and filled with people shooting for a non existent audience. I think the market analysts that projected infinite growth via catering to women lead the industry into where it is today and that “wokeness” is just the logical end goal. I believe most people within the American games industry are ideologically captured and that because enough people have cemented themselves within the industry, so to break from that would been seen as sacrilege. It doesn’t help that the other side of the coin has also become unhinged but that’s mostly because people lash out when they feel like what they’ve managed to gatekeep gets subverted from the inside. The thing that /v/anons have to realize is that American devs have always had a beef with Asian game devs. It’s one of the big reasons why JRPG’s have only recently been treated with the same reverence as their western counterparts. So even with games like Stellar Blade doing well the likelihood of western devs changing anything around is largely a pipe dream.

So in short I think they like the status quo. If they wanted to they could start their own indie studio and make their own Stellar Blade but they just refuse to.

It's DEI if instead of hiring based on skill/talent you hire to fulfill racial/gender/shoving things up your ass quotas. Those quotas might be explicitly stated, or just a shared vibe that implies hiring white guys is problematic.
Same thing when you make a game and every leadership position in the story has to either be held by a strong womxn of brown color or be the antagonist who does everything wrong.

If you care about this stuff you are being grifted. I don't care what blue hairs are doing in videogames or the industry and I can't fathom why anyone else would. If you care, you're a mark and you're being fleeced. It's not hyperbole when they call it grifting, it's a real thing. People have learned they can make money gosipping to you about culture war stuff and they've been doing it nonstop for 10 years and none of it is even the least tiny bit interesting. It never was.

It's all psychological manipulation to make you feel like you're part of some kind of "resistance" so when things inevitably swing your way some amount you can rejoice, and when they swing the other way you can recommit to being obsessed with it. The culture war is a lie. It never ends, that's why the same discussions are happening now that were happening 9 years ago. The exact same discussions.

I don't know, but in the short time I've worked in an office in my life, it's become clear to me that at least 90% of all workers (almost 100% of men) secretly hate all those politically correct lectures they're forced to attend because corporations want to earn good goy points.
I had the advantage of working part-time in the office and part-time with a team on construction sites, and that's where people said what they really thought. Basically, the lectures were making everyone secretly hate transvestites, faggots, feminists, etc. That gender-neutral language sttuff in particular seems to be what offended people the most, and thinking about it, I understand why: it's literally like a mom/dad forbidding children from using bad words, and that's highly offensive to adults.

Imagine going through the requisite education and training and building up a portfolio or whatever else to work on vidya and are finally ready to join the industry and put your passion to work on some wonderful games.

The people you looked up to got to put their names and effort into games that were renowned for decades and viewed as some of t he greatest games of all time. And when all is said and done 10-15 years working in the industry you update your resume and the last 10 years is working on absolute trash like Concord. Like a complete waste of everything.

I'm sure for a lot of people that didn't want or earn these jobs in the first place its just an easy paycheck. But I feel bad for anyone who got into the industry from legitimate passion, only to get assfucked by the state its in.

Its semi-related but in the late 2000's, i saw alot of kids going into "Video Game" programs because they thought it would be fun, not because they actually care or even played videos games at the time. And at the time, there was Programming and Design branches, and all those kids went towards Design.

So video games was like Sociology for them. Not something they actual cared about, just something "fun". So at some point they got degrees and wanted a job, and eventually they did get those jobs. But like the freaks who got into Sociology, the jobs got filled with liberal retards who didn't know how to be professional and inserted their stupid ideas into the games.

Solo developers don't need corporate experience. They don't even need to know how to program.
Solo developers just need to be able to meet the demand of a niche market. That's it. If you decide to become a solo developer because you dream of creating games, then you've started off on the wrong foot. Now, if you have a skill that can reach a niche market, let's say you're great at drawing boobs, and everyone who sees the boobs you draw asks for more, then you become a solo dev and make a “boob touch simulator,” because that's what solo game devs should do: use games as platforms to showcase their talent to the world.

"Don't quit your day job." is the saying for this. It use to apply to professional athletes too.

Because video games are the leading edge media plus or minus tiktok, and are quite literally a political battleground with billions of dollars on the line.

Watch the political fucks at the GDC for an example. If you hire SBI, your projects get in pol shit.

It's still a job, anon. Most people don't like going to work every day and do shit they don't want to do, but they do so regardless to keep food on the table and a roof over their heads. Most game devs don't get to work on their dream project, they instead get shunted to the latest AAA game and forced to do menial tasks.
>just go indie bro
Massive indie successes like Undertale, Shovel Knight, and Minecraft are the exception to the rule. Most indie devs don't get rich or famous.
>just find a new job bro
Much easier said than done, especially in this economy, where IT executives want to replace everyone with AI and pajeets that will work for pennies.

Palmer Lucky got kicked out of Oculus for supporting Trump. Scott Cawthon too. Game devs should not share their true opinions on Twitter if they want to remain employed. It's disgusting that this happens but there aren't enough chud companies funding games.

Enough people voted for him for him to win 2 times. Just saying that's why you about democrats and DEI opinions from devs on Twitter and not anti-woke opinions unless its ex devs like Grumz. There is a huge bias in game devs, AAA and indies. My politics are in the middle but I wouldn't bring them up at work and definitely not on Twitter.

Because supporting a criminal pedophile out of spite reflects very poorly on your character, you know.

It's tough to say what's worse, Kamala funding tranny shit or Trump dismantling the entire country and putting idiots like RFK Jr in charge of anything let alone health. I wouldn't trust that dude to brew a coffee.
I also understand Trump cutting spending and reducing waste or not wantint to fund more wars but not when he's taking away benefits from coal miners and similar job sectors. If there's one thing I don't mind taxes going to is treatment for coal miners who can't breathe without assistance. It's honestly fucked up what he did to them for the pennies it saved.
The silver lining is at least Trump is entertaining to watch and woke shit is on retreat. Was it worth it? Probably not but we can at least enjoy the show now.

I wonder what is he hoarding all that money for. He has no children or any immediate family other than his dad and he's not spending it on anything. I remember him saying he doesn't even use 1% of what he earns.
I wouldn't be surprised if he never even spends 90% of what he's made nor starts a family and it eventually finds it way to be reclaimed by the state or some bank.
