Good. Life is Cringe was good episode 1. Then it went downhill with the dyke shit.

The emo bitch should have been straight. Both of them. They need some edgy chad cock to get fixed.

I liked Vampyr enough that I would buy a sequel day one. But Banishers didn't grab me to that degree based on the premise, so I'm waiting until it's dirt cheap.

I don't know what these guys are doing. They had some good success early on with Remember Me, Life is Strange, and Vampyr. And then immediately after that success it's like they went "now how can we make our games maximum SJW?" and shat out like 10 games that are turbo SJW/DEI/woke and all failed.

Wrong. Their first 3 games definitely had some stuff like that, it's obviously undeniable, but the matter of the fact is that those games were actually good, so it was easy to brush aside a few SJW-like moments here and there.

Their later games literally had no game behind them, it's like they exclusively exist as some sort of soapbox for the devs. If the previous games were 80% game and 20% "messaging" then their new games are literally like 90% "messaging" and 10% game. It's absurd, like an actual bad parody.

But that's exactly the point. The thing is that the games got worse, not that they got woke. They always were.
Make a good game and it's easy to overlook retardation. Not a coincidence that people finally got their way and devs started dropping the dumb Body Type shit as games got shittier and shittier.

This kinda shilling makes me not buy games extra hard. If you can wade through the rest of the bullshit for so little, good for you. If you try to trick other people into buying it that way, consider to fund your trash yourself for a change.

Not talking about USAIDS specifically, but it's insane to me how it turned out the vast majority of these kinda games the world over were subsidized if not funded by government grants and what not. At no point was there ever a consideration to create entertainment for an actual audience involved.
>USAIDS
btw they do really just take the piss out of people with names like that, right? And yet they could call this shit literally

I mean this is has been set up a long fucking time ago.
But if you read books like Dereliction of Duty in regards to Bill and Hillary Clinton, you get the picture that these proglibs have a "if we build it they'll come" attitude.
Same here, if we make mostly woke shit games eventually everyone will play them.

It got worse in 2012 when Obama repealed Smith-Mundt act
https://www.congress.gov/bill/112th-congress/house-bill/5736
>To amend the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 to authorize the domestic dissemination of information and material about the United States intended primarily for foreign audiences, and for other purposes.

This is exactly where fag media became pushed everywhere. It starts to make sense now right?
USAID was a democrat institutional weapon used to fund NGO's discretely to fund these ventures.

This is why Trump is defunding Harvard (which was an integral part of this scheme) defunding the FEDERAL committee on education (because test scores were getting worse intentionally) and generally dismantling all of the bullshit this pinkos have been pushing since the 60s

1. No one forced developers to make romance interests into both genders.
2. Romance interests being into 1 (one) gender was the standard for decades.
3. And still happens in newer games like Cyberpunk 2077.

No, you don't get it, RPGs always HAVE to include (((bisexual))) representation.
It has been like this since the very beginning. There were no RPGs where romance interests were gender-specific.

they've been so insulated from failure and danger due to investors and gamers being slop-eaters and so idealogically driven due to the culture of western dev studios being california-lite, they seem to think they can't fail and even if they do nothing bad will happen and they'll just come off as more virtuous. They genuinely act like they're out of touch with reality with shit like this, and their response to other devs and customers asking them what they expected or mocking them, saying shit like
>we're suffering and you should be nice and not criticize our game, or say anything bad about it

They really need to stop making back to back flops. Then again, I think the only real successful thing they've done was only Life is Strange and some other company has already poisoned that well with Life is Strange adjacent spin-offs. They can try to hail mary pass with a Vampyr sequel that some people might want.

I really liked the first game. Something clicked in me with Before the Storm and I loved it. 2 was pretty ass. Never played anything beyond that. Oh, I've read some of the official comics, but that was pure diarrhea so I dropped it.

I've been thinking of buying vampyr, didn't realise it was the LiS studio, think I'll not purchase it to help them go under

How did Super Smash Bros 4 and Ultimate and GTA 3 have bisexual representation?

>Their first 3 games
I really enjoyed 1 and the prequel but 2 was unbearable, I couldn't finish it and can't make myself play anything from them since.

Good. LIS1 is the only decent thing they've ever done and they've been coasting on its success for over a decade.

The fact that Dustborn, a game in English about the gay and the brown dealing with living in some sort of postapocalyptic racist America, was funded by Norway is just wild.

I think they might be counting Bayonetta as bi or something. I don't remember offhand Bayo flirting with any women in 1 or 2. She professes a liking for "Making children" and teases Luka, but I think that's about it for revealing her sexuality which is just straight

Every choice in before the storm
>respond like an angsty bitch
>respond like an edgy bitch
>response like a normal person
And every time you tried to pick normal responses she still acted out an angsty way. What was even the point of giving an option. It also felt like they were trying really hard to make her stepdad seem even worse than in the first game. He went from being misguided and abusive in the first game to just straight up irrationally evil in the prequel.
