Why did gamers not support the greatest RPG maker of all time? will game studios have to abandon their creative passions and appease gamers just to stay open now? that doesn't seem sustainable to keep the devs motivated at work.

What if they just quit and let AI do the work, then? If money isn't a motivation, then they should just abandon game dev. I'm sure they'll be replaced even if they kneel to gamers and start giving them what they want.
If it makes you feel better, I think all the racists will be replaced too. There's nothing about 4chan posters that makes them irreplaceable, and so game devs won't be the only ones who lose their jobs.

Maybe if they made appealing games they wouldnt be in this little bind of theirs
But alas, I expect too much

It's not quite that simple. You could clone 4chan (and lots of people have), but the hardest part would be the site having bots that post on it. If you couldn't tell they were bots, then it would be a real replacement. It's not possible yet.

Then blame us for the game failing and the studio closing, because we took their advice and didnt buy the game...

There's a brand new RPG maker version coming out soon, and everyone loves it. What are you talking about OP.

>>750263813
You really expect a midwit to make sense? He's saying that most racists are poor, while holding the belief that whites have some kind of advantage even if they're forced into the same school as all the ethnics.
What is school? It's training for future slavery. The only reason someone would participate in such bullshit, is if they liked their school, and they liked their society. If they don't? Then being White means nothing. In fact, it would be detrimental, as they would be the least motivated person at a shit school. I saw it happen in real life, and that's how I know what happens. The low income whites are pulled down by the awful situation, exactly like the other kids.

What does that have to do with your post? RPG Maker is Japanese

>>750262658
I don't care about the immigrant, the gay couple, the trans kid or the black family. I just want to play video games and have a good time. You will either provide me with said good time through the medium of your game or you shall go without my money.
But we both know which choice you made, don't we?

This is so unbelievably uninvolved in the actual core issue that the argument is attempting to structure around, it just comes off as a meandering teenage rant, hilarious and absurd.

That's your brain on neoliberalism (woke)

He hits the absolute most important predictors of your future success first (coming from higher income to start with and having access to good education) which is CORRELATED with being white, and there are historical reasons for that, but not actually guaranteed to you just by being white on its own. Then he spends the rest of his post ranting about how you didn't pull yourself up by your bootstraps and how any problems you face are a result of your own moral failings and general terminal individualism and market fundamentalism that wouldn't be out of place coming straight out of the Hertitage Foundation

>>750264661
Bioware pushed DEI tranny bullshit the most it's all they were known for once their games started sucking.
>>
>>750264661
The alternative LGBTQ+ "immigrants first" type of crowd saw Bioware's very existence and releasing games like Veilguard where a character goes into a rant about being enby for no reason, as some sort of win.

The company failing flies in the face of that completely. Its like they're being told that "Actually you didnt win, those messages and philosophies got games cancelled and lost people their jobs"

Bioware was the prototypical woke dev, they were a little ahead of everyone else. Them adding sex scenes to RPGs ("romance") attracted a lot of horny women and perverts to the genre, who tend to have views like the guy in the OP. Plus it's getting harder to argue that studios failing has nothing to do with their politics and everything to do with capitalism.

Yeah, he sounds like a racist to me as well. If you ignore the fact that he called out whites specifically, he's just shitting on poor people with his wall of garbage.
>you should have just escaped your shit situation even though you were playing on nightmare mode :)
I'm 100% sure that guy didn't experience the conditions that low income people went through, because someone who did would be more sympathetic to anyone who didn't get out. He just decides to target poor whites because it's the only way to not look racist, but he's essentially saying
>poor non-whites are justified in doing poorly at school because they're inferior
At least his punishment can be his kid being some little poop. That's what happens when people don't live by their beliefs.
>>
>It couldn't be that a game studio made expensive games for a market that no longer existed. No, it was the chud conspiracy!
The mental gymnastics of these people to avoid self reflection is outstanding. BioWare did nothing wrong so it HAD to be [group I dislike] sabotaging them. These are the sort of people that would say disco would've lived forever if only it wasn't for those chuds.

Bioware stopped existing in late 2007 when EA staged a hostile takeover by buying out a third-party stockholder to bump their shares to 51% and then freezing out the founders.

Blaming anything that happened afterwards on anything but EA management is retarded, and so is anyone that was alive and aware in 2007 and didn't see what had happened after DA2 launched.

For fuck's sake they didn't even wait a year to gut the studio and make it a revolving door of turnover. The special interviews for DA2 included interviewing all of the leads, lead writer lead engineer lead artist, etc.
THEY WERE ALL IN THEIR TWENTIES.

If a lead anything is under thirty it means everyone with any ounce of talent or experience was already kicked out for costing too much.

THE DA2 FEATURE WAS IN 2011.
