What old game would be attacked by the anti-DEI grifters if they were to come out today?

WW was the DEI equivalent of it's time - generic rage, edgy and gritty aesthetics, especially after coming from Sands of Time

>>717161332 (OP)
it was a different time

i wanted to drop the game after seeing this

DEI would tear this apart just from the masculinity alone. OP is a fraud, as per usual.

>>717161332 (OP)
Wtf are you even insinuating, OP? I'm anti-woke, anti-DEI, and WW is one of my top 100 favorite videogames of all time.

>>717161332 (OP)
Not with those character designs

Its fucking shame what happend to Prince of Persia. WW was literally peak, T2T was good, everything after was an abomination.
WHY DID THEY STOP MAKING ACTUAL PP GAMES

>>717161806
>generic rage, edgy and gritty aesthetics
Or in other words, mid '00s kino.

btw I'm playing SoT and that combat is so awful holy shit

>>717161332 (OP)
You know it to be true.

>>717161806
This 100%, the change in atmosphere was jarring, also they made the Prince a sandnigger (he was a chestnut haired fair skinned bright eyed Aryan chad in Sands of Time)

>>717164236

it's gross and far below the ass in the game

valve is successful because they are not preachy

>>717165236
You can go back further than that.

The original design of Alyx in HL2 was an attractive white girl with red hair and green eyes. Valve was replacing redheads with mutts before it was a thing.

>gets slapped
>YOU BITCH!
Nah it’s based.

>>717161332 (OP)
I know you trannies don't play video games but WW was criticised for making the prince an emo at the time of release, because emos were the trannies of the time. But at least it was still a fun game. Maybe if tranny games were fun you wouldn't need to do a backflip.

AHEM

And he is still bright eyed and looks a lot more white in WW.

Maybe calling everyone racist and sexist wasn't a good idea when no one actually gave a hit about women or brown people in the first place. Now i just think you're scoring DEI points.

none of that is DEI, idiots

I don't mind the tone shift, but I can understand why it would be jarring going from SoT to WW. That said, I'm far more upset that the fucking retarded Ubisoft changed the team working on PoP 3 from Ubisoft Casablanca (Kindred Blades) to Ubisoft Montreal (The Two Thrones). Kindred Blades was a continuation of the tone of WW and looked far more interesting gameplay-wise and story-wise. What could have been a far more better trilogy was robbed from us.

>>717166487
>Time has proven that grim dark actually is cool
Did it, now? Edgy grimdank are seen as quaint juvenile reminiscent of 00s, noone does it in any kind of seriousness these days.

>>717166943
Didn't Kindred Blades become Assassin's Creed? I'm not well versed in ubilore.

>>717166573

>>717166942
>sandnigger

>>717167013
I don't know beyond that single bit of PoP development lore, but wouldn't surprise me if it turned into Asscreed. And we are all worse off for it, or maybe better off considering PoP got spared being enshittified by Ubishit. PoP 2008 and Forgotten Sands were so forgettable and inconsequential that they did not damage to the series.

>>717166958
Grimdark isn't done much because nothing is done much these days. Everything is safe corposlop.
But anime is more popular than ever and it's got plenty of ridiculously edgy nonsense in it.
You're also probably thinking of "grimdark" as some extreme thing but the truth is WW is barely unrealistic or edgy. It's just a lone guy fighting against impossible monsters. There's plenty of that. Just because there's also some occasional humor doesn't really invalidate it.
All of Dark Souls/EldenRing/Bloodbourne is a good example.

>>717167013
no it became The Two Thrones

>>717161806
Shut up faggot

>>717167190
>All of Dark Souls/EldenRing/Bloodbourne
Not edgy, not grimdark, at least not in the 00s sense of this word. Compare DS and PoP:WW, or ER and GoW.

>>717167503
>Dark Souls is not grimdark
this conversation is over lmao

>>717167601
Nice reading comprehension, are you perchance a pajeet? Or simply a nigger?

>>717167601
NTA, but I can kind of understand what he's talking about. 00s grimdark gave off the impression like it was a mix of hope and desperation, like the situation was at its worst but still salvageable. FromSoftware's Souls games give off a more extreme grimdark impression like everything is already over and hopeless, that nothing you do actually matters, similar to Warhammer 40k's grimdark in nature.

I also want something like the 00s grimdark back, right now we have games that are too much at the other ends of each extreme and it's tiring seeing the same tone and shit.

>>717161332 (OP)
Does the Prince of Persia trilogy hold up? I would be emulating rather than attempting the PC version which I never configured correctly.

>>717168086
>similar to Warhammer 40k's grimdark in nature
you mean the series that invented grimdark?
you fucking retard

>>717168397
So? What does that have to do with anything I said?

>>717161332 (OP)
Prince calls this bitch a "bitch" in the first ten minutes of the game. It also has another hot half naked chick. You proceed to beat the shit out of them in boss fights. How is this DEI?

>>717168440
impressive how fucking stupid you are

>>717166942
it's as generic as DEI has been for the past few years

>>717168470
And you are unimpressive in explaining how it has anything to do with what I said.

>>717168454
>that derpy face model
Boomers shat their pants when they saw this

>>717161332 (OP)
Trying way too hard, fag.

>>717168652
Nigger, you STILL aren't explaining fuck all on what W40K inventing grimdark has to do with anything I said. Nobody gives a single fucking shit on who invented grimdark.

>>717168785
Why would I bother explain something to a shitskin retard who can't speak english?

>>717161806
>entire story was about changing fate
>even the main song was about masculinity, not taking shit from women and self-reliance
>no niggers
>no fags

Shut the fuck up fag. Nu metal edgy aesthetic was everywhere because it was popular and made money. DEI is subsidized propaganda designed to make you enjoy the taste of niggers and faggots shoved in your face. If anything that era was the antithesis of DEI.

>>717168875
So you can't? Good to know that you are an illiterate underaged retard just wasting the thread's reply count.

>>717168995
>because it was popular and made money.
Why do you think DEI got into games? ResetEra, Twitter and BlackRock

>>717169020
>So you can't?
Good job proving beyond all doubt that you're a retarded shitskin who can't speak a word of English. Enjoy being a slave to my people.

>>717168526
I agree. We need more... modern.

As a kid I enjoyed TTT well enough but looking back I hate how cowardly and pandering it is, trying to toss away everything from WW and making a dumb half assed sequel to SoT and in the end pleasing no one

>>717161332 (OP)
the first call of duty would be labeled woke for showing nazis as the bad guys

>>717169063
And? What's your point kike? One was successful because people liked it and paid money for it, the other is disingenuous and state-funded to make up for losses due to nobody liking it enough to buy.

>>717169490
>And? What's your point
Both are mindless trend chasers, just different era
>One was successful because people liked it
Except people made fun of that even back then.
>The tone of the game has gone from an Arabian Nights fantasy to something akin to a Marilyn Manson music video. In dark and grimy settings, the once gallant prince curses and jeers as he swings his sword at demons whose decapitations are lovingly shown in slow motion to a soundtrack of screeching guitars.

Emil being gay in OG Nier. Kaine would get a pass like always because she's smoking hot.

Based beyond belief. Everyone who "made fun of" this back in the day was a loser nerd.

>>717170586
the only reason people didn't complain about that is because nobody played that shit and even if they did they probably didn't notice

>>717169785
>Both are mindless trend chasers, just different era
DEI is not a trend chaser. It's literally the opposite. Trends are actually popular and people appreciate them. Unlike DEI which is trying to force people into accepting things they don't like.
>Except people made fun of that even back then.
Oh wow! Because of its tryhard edgy shit that appealed to 13 year old boys, right? That's so similar to today where people boycott companies over woke gay shit they don't like...

You dumb cunt.
