I work at microsoft azure in the networking org. A successful DDOS attack would be the fault of azure networking, and as such, would be owned by azure networking, and some random twitter community outreach employee posting this shit would piss off many PMs and VPs, ESPECIALLY if there is no fix yet. You would never tell someone that you are currently being ddosed, because then you tell the people doing it and others that it works.
Because of all that, I don't believe the tweet. That or the person who made the post wasn't approved to do so and is a retard

It truly is a mystery. It should be studied by economists and presented to free marketers as a prime example of how an industry can destroy itself without government intervention. They did this all by themselves. Perhaps this could serve as a lesson to us all that despite all the logical and rational self-interest a business may have to be a slave to customer demand, sometimes all it takes is a little tug and pull in the boardroom by psychopaths, freaks and just incredibly stupid people to bring down a company and industry with stupid ideas

Most of these companies are located inside blue states which grant them some benefits. I say some because will it reads like gorillion dollars in breaks, they come with a lot of dumb strings.
But there is a LOT of interference.
I think that is the reason Id Software, which is in Texas, could fight it off as much as it could.

Not to mention people inside blue states are genuinely indoctrinated.

Unfortunately the result of shit like Stakeholder Capitalism and Effective Altruism is the actual, real world manifestation of the "I consent, I consent... but is there someone you forgot to ask?" meme. Transaction Cost (a sociological concept) goes up exponentially the more people are involved and goes up exponentially the more disparate those peoples' desires are. This is why games that are little more than mod projects on top of established franchises take >100 million dollars to make and in the end they suck anyway. The Transaction Cost has to be paid somehow, and that payment comes as a combination of time and money, for the projects that can clear it at all. Those projects that can't die on the vine.

Stakeholder Capitalism and Effective Altruism are the result of rich people ennui. You can try to blame the rich, generally, or Jews or subversive efforts of evil Oceania or whatever, but those other factions wouldn't have had gotten any traction in the games industry without a wide and diverse layer of forever bored people that make money from nothing and have no metaphysical reason to live, so they latch onto popular grievance and pretend to fix it.

You're right it doesn't make sense but then again woke is a mental illness that defies all sense and reasoning. Nike went all in on woke marketing in 2021 and now they've bombed so hard that they were taken off the top stock exchange in 5 years. People in the boardrooms of these companies are making their own decisions and its a combination of outsourcing popular demand market research to consultancy agencies and strictly adhering to corporate policy of ESG and DEI initiatives which some majority shareholder groups actively insist as a condition of continued investment.

Except many of these executives have traceable links, it is known Bob Iger from Disney was even planning on running for congress.

I can believe cases like Kathlyn Kennedy which is easily explained by nepotism and a sense of superiority from someone who was raised in a elite, liberal environment but even then those ideals were implanted and it is know higher education institutions are corrupt.
EGS and DEI are political tools.

You're right that there is a blindspot, in the sense that this is only possible because investment funds keep investing in these "Too Big To Fail" flagship companies, which means they are not working in the interest of their clients. It is a complete abuse of trust. The serious part here is that nothing will be done until these flashship companies are completely unsalvageable.

The trooon retard in charge assumed Phil Spencer would still be in charge, so they could still adopt the "work whenever" policy they had since the Xbox One days which meant they could fuck around and delay a game for 6 years. There is nothing that warrants this much development time, it seems the game was planned in 2024 and they fucked around a lot.

I am not commending Asha, fuck her for killing Id Software, but it is thanks to fuck ups like the Coalition is that MS new stance is to clean house of worthless retards. It is uncanny every western studio takes 5 years minimum to deliver the most mediocre subpar game you have ever seen with no upstanding qualities whatsoever.
Of course this is only happening because MS is on the verge of death, not because Windows is POS, but because they failed in every single area where MS invest money, namely cloud storage and AI.

All of them.
'Chuds' built the civilization your kind is still regrettably allowed to exist in. 'Chuds' keep that civilization running despite your best efforts at sabotaging it.
You get rid of 'chuds', and civilization stops functioning after all the systems they built and maintained start breaking down. And then all the brown hordes you gleefully surround yourself with to 'own' the 'chuds' destroy you because they are by and large human shaped animals without any of the empathy or civility that allowed your kind to take root and metastasize.
'Chuds' are load-bearing and civilization cannot function without them. Meanwhile, if your kind and all who think like you or enable your sociocidal behavior were to disappear, other than momentary disruptions caused by a mass population displacement, civilization at large would improve dramatically, due to the eradication of ideologies and ways of thinking that are incompatible with the concept of a functional, healthy human civilization.
So unkindly, do not speak as if you're important to the future of the species, you are the exact opposite and humanity would be better off if every single one of you were eradicated with extreme prejudice.

when gears came to x360 everybody was creaming in their pants, it was basically the new halo with a protagonist who had a face.

It even became bigger because pcniggers were crying for a port, and the father of gears Cliffy B was edgelord who told them fuck off.

After one year MS gave in and released 1 to PC to motivate pc cattle to buy a x360, gears 2 and 3 were major hits on the console, but it was never released to personal computer.

4 and 5 were absymal dogshit, MS made a marketing saying this will return to the form and you will get an image how did the conflict start just for the two main prtoganists to become side characters and a disgusting tranny takes a lead.

There are activist groups for just about every petty issue, why would corporate enterprises suddenly care for a particular brand of social justice? This issue started at the top and parasites inside companies like pic related took the opportunity to climb the ladder.
Corporate activism loses money, this is an observable fact, yet it has continued for at least 13 years.
There is no reason why would corporate entities would be so adamant to lose money, and it is always in a very particular way.

Furthermore, it always the same issues that resonate with the same political stances coming from left leaning groups.
And the coup de grace is that companies invested in this social justice agenda are the first to annihilate syndicates and unions, so it is clear they do care for their own interest first and foremost. If they do not care about the damages is because there are winning somewhere else.

I think there's a better way to lay out the argument of the "blind spot in capitalism".

Capitalism is the search for capital. There will be people who succeed and gather lots of capital. These people can then spend this money on what they want. The issue here is that there is no system to hard guarantee that the person who succeeds will use this money in the way that everyone else wants to. The problem is not "the person is sane or not sane", "this guy who made it was competent or failed upward", it is simply a case of individual freedom. And sometimes that individual freedom is exercised to try and create the most tarded societal end result possible, whether they stay fully private sector or use that money to get into politics and add monopoly-of-violence to their toolbox. Roll the dice enough times and it will happen at some point or another.
>>
>>749535506
>There are activist groups for just about every petty issue, why would corporate enterprises suddenly care for a particular brand of social justice?
Because they're activists that care more about achieving their ideological goals than they do about making a baseline profit. George Soros openly admits his Open Society Foundation is to advance a political agenda. When you're a billionaire and you have fingers in every pie and you've created a system of basically infinite money rolling into your bank account every day you'll never truly "lose" money anymore, they can afford to twist the arms of companies to submit to ESG demands at investor meetings. Some people are simply evil and have mal-intent. These companies success doesn't hinge on the sales of the product they designed anymore, they just want the money supply from investors to keep flowing.

Ultimately, thats not the government

Baldy gets his opinions from this site, and sadly this the last bastion of originality (which is fucking dire), reason why even left leaning dumbfucks steal from 4chan culture. I mean, now that I think about it everything from AURA to Copium was popularized and taken from 4chan which is run by chuds.
Internet culture is testament to chud influence.

The reason asmongoloid is popular is because he regurgitates 4chan opinions which resonate harder than the corporate script other influencers have. I met influencers in real life, they are all insufferable faggots outside the camera but when the camera is on, they all read from the same script to an unnatural extent.
Essentially 4chan culture resonates with people who are tired of all the fake shit we are supposed not to point out, like how men can never be women no matter how much silicon and hormones you put them through, and how immoral it is.
As petty as 4chan culture might be, it is like the equivalent to the 70s punk subculture.

Government gives tax dollars to NGOs and NGOs give grants to companies that tow the line.

Additionally, government positions are filled with left-wing ideologues because it's very similar to middle management in video game companies. The work is easy and there's barely any oversight or accountability so you get to kinda do what you want. Perfect for people with nothing better to do than shove their message down your throat.

You're right there's no laws on the books, it's a philosophy taught in our schools and these retards graduate and go on to find jobs. Some of them go into government which is where they exercise their personal bias shaped by this philosophy.

So yes they didn't technically order them, they're just all on the same page together.

Its more straight-forward than this. Peoples social and political beliefs contaminate the quality of the art they produce. On an individual level you're right, we cannot guarantee that the person who succeeds will use his capital appropriately in a way everybody wants to. But this is a collaborative effort in a studio, with a writing team, a director, a producer, a separate publishing firm with their own creative visions they enforce on the developers. The dynamics of late-stage capitalism is far more complex and cannot be whittled down to the basics of personal individual creative freedom. When theres a social and professional hierarchy within an organisation, the people at the top matter. And their political and social beliefs matter more than anybody elses. Thats when you get some brown tranny bitch written into the series, and boom, you've lost money and fans. Thats what a blindspot is

Yeah that causes the "toxic positivity" effect where criticism is seen as an aggressive personal attack so nobody's allowed to say "this is fucking retarded we're going to lose so many customers if we do this" because the disabled brown mystery meat lesbian will get her feelings hurt and that matters more than anything.

The main pull factor for wokeslop in games is strict adherence to ESG/DEI corporate policy enforced by their investor groups who threaten to cut off the supply if you make it too chuddy for their liking. That is all private enterprise business, its not Gavin Newsom kicking down the door in commiefornia game studio office demanding trannies and blacks in gears of war lmao
>>
>>749536232
Correct. I agreed with you.
>>
>>749536232
actually, that's not even the main factor, that's the one that incentivizes the studios that aren't ideologically captured. As we can see, even when ESG money began drying up, wokies don't stop with their bullshit. They will take every AAA studio down with them and it will be glorious to watch. Karma on an industry-wide scale.

>It is uncanny every western studio takes 5 years minimum to deliver the most mediocre subpar game you have ever seen with no upstanding qualities whatsoever.
It's actually worse than that, keep in mind Gears has always been an Unreal Engine title, and UE is specifically designed for quick and fast iteration and development.
Epic will tell you in excruciating detail all the effort they've put into UE5 to make it easy and fast to work with for developers.
In the 90s and early 00s doing any sort of 3D modelling, rigging, animation, pre-rendered cutscenes was tedious, slow and expensive, yet somehow games didn't require this much money, time or people.
This is why I have zero sympathy for modern developers, they're not poor victims of circumstance, they are the ultra privileged elites that get paid to not make a single game for years and are complicit in killing gaming.

it's double retarded because you assume the artists themselves won't enjoy the game as much because the worked on it, and troons don't actually support woke garbage games (pic rel), so they're literally just making games for no one

Corporations have duties to their stakeholders. I.E investors,employees, benefactors etc etc
Not the customers. That is buisness 101.

Games have ALWAYS been about the bottom line, and the focus of making and selling them. Whether they are good is just a coincidence.

>>749535756
>Because they're activists that care more about achieving their ideological goals than they do about making a baseline profit.
The most innocuous agenda I can think of must be climate change.
The EU had a campaign, more like a crusade, for green energies that lead to the EU taking nuclear reactors offline (they are still operational, just not part of the energy grid because you cannot TURN of radioactive material), and punished fossil fuels. All these Green Companies had members who were in turn affiliated to left leaning political parties, or happened to be companies where EU politicians had invested their money years prior to them granting them benefits that would inflate their bottom line tenfold, but for that to happen EU politicians had to create an energy crisis.

>These companies success doesn't hinge on the sales of the product they designed anymore, they just want the money supply from investors to keep flowing.
This is only possible at the expense of the investors who are ultimately trusting in a competent authority which is in reality handling matters according to their own interests, not their investors.

I think we agree that ultimately corporate entities want to secure their place first and foremost, but my point is that it becomes clear when they are doing so by securing political affiliates which is a simple explanation for why would companies take Woke as their banner.

It costs $400,000 at the absolute minimum to employ 4 devs. For 12 months.

So this is officially game that made this board seethe the most in last decade somehow.

As far as I understand the issue is that the devs are indeed victims of a system created to justify management, and management roles.
Management became self important at the same time veteran software architects became unimportant burger flippers in the eyes of the industry, reason why Asha Saar did not even think twice about the implications of her actions and fired several key veterans, engineers, and software architects among other vital roles, because they were not part of the management elite.
This is why fuckos like Hugo Martin are still in charge of Id Software, the leads behind 343i / Halo Studios are still there and why the tranny retard in charge of the coalition will keep his job despite back breaking layoffs.
The most exchangeable roles are kept around as the punchline to a really bad joke.

Tim Cain already voiced how retarded it was to put a script inside a game, he could do it one hour but thanks to over management he had to wait a month because the process needed to be documented, and this bureaucracy exists only to justify management positions.
Essentially a creative industry, similar to movie making, was crippled into an entity like the DMV.
>>
>>749536507
Some one already did the numbers and Id Software before lay off cost less than $2M a year for projects that do returns in the tens of millions.

What makes me mad about AI, is that you are supposed to take companies like Treyarch and Id Software, divide them into 2-4 cells and with AI, they should be able to make up for the lack manpower and be able to work on multiple projects at the same time.
Instead it will be like thousands of hindus in typewriters attempting to write hamlet.
Halo Campaign Refunded is essentially what we can expect in the future.

I'd take that as the sign to leave, if you've got what it takes find some like minded people and form a new studio independent of outside interference.
Corporate life is like that in every sector, even if something is obvious and would take you 10 minutes to fix there are multiple organisational layers of approval it needs to go through.
And the managerial class and nepotism hires are the ones that keep failing upwards.
