Are video games political
>>533615705Only those that flop made by libtards
>>533615705better question, are final fantasy characters white?
*winks*
>>533615785I cannot do this today.
all media can be politicalnot inherentlythey can be said to contribute to the political climate or be the results of such, but a video game like final fantasy x is not trying to enact any political motion in and of itselfas a story it can attempt to impart emotion or messaging, but that tends to speak to the human condition rather than any political stancethanks for asking, man
>>533615755they were until final fantasy x reflected the company's greater policy of Japan first representation where they started using face models - and the models they had access to were Japanese. thus, everyone became some kind of weird happa
>>533615755What do you believe?
Overrated slop.
>>533615705only mine-craft.
>>533615885You can believe Setzer Sabin And Celes were white.
maybe
>>533615755Idk maybe mixed?
Paradox games Yes I will import 500k bantus to turn Sweden into an economic powerhouse
>>533615937You probably played the awful remaster that fucked up the faces
>>533615705Dark souls 2 is so fucking hard bros
>>533615705That's a favorite but Tactics is the best.
>>533617018Crystal chronicles 1 and 2 on the ds is also good.
>>533615705No, at least not the ones from Japan. Its just that the retards from Commiefornia and Chinklandia try to push their dogshit Tel-Aviv tier revisions to the language with every release.
>>533615755They look like hapas like most anima characters lol
Perhaps. But, there's a good way to do politics in games (Bioshock, Fallout: New Vegas) and a bad way(basically all games post 2012)
>>533616049They are obviously not whatever real world race. (There's not much race definitions, but they usually use Tribal language to define ethnicities in Final Fantasy games): Yuna is Al-Bhed-half as visible by the eyes (Al-Bhed trait in Spira in FFX), so they are mixed. Tidus and Wakka are basically natives to their own cultures. Auron as well. Basically Race = Roman understanding of the "Tribe" clause is in play here for a person's ethnicity more than race.
>>533617018this
>>533617085Never played them. I stopped playing at FFX. I was spoiled with NES, SNES, and PlayStation.
>>533615705Everything is political.
>>533615705define political
>>533617357You aren't missing anything much. Modern games are garbage. I would recommend emulation tho and seeing what cool games you missed.
>>533615705Yes
>>533615705Not necessarily but they are definitely for kids.
>>533617447Who let a gook bitch chink slave like you have an opinion? Back to the salt mines! CHOP CHOP NIGGAROO!!
>>533617282They also varied with localization. The FMVs stayed the same, but the character models were different in the Japanese vs International release.
>>533616049Hafu
>>533617568Mad nazi scum detected
>>533617524I don't think kids are really into Final Fantasy or ever have been.You're wrong.
>>533617443I wouldn't mind playing FFX again. I thought it was really good.
>>533617576True, when it comes to however "Race/Tribe" its an important thing to clarify that Race refers to people like "Khimari Ronso" (Ronso Tribe) vs Humans like the ones I mentioned in fantasy literature often and is more important defining trait in a character than Tribal cohesion most cases. Mostly ethnicity just grants unique cultural traits in these games or other special background nonsense.
>>533617122japanese games aren't political in the western sense but they all love to put gnostic messages in their games.Every game about killing a god or waking up from a simulation (which in ffx is a dream ) in order to save the dream version of a town that longer existed etc etc.Game like YS 1 and 2 have names like the the temple of Solomon and Xenogears has the "Zohar".Kingdom hearts has the keys that are a refernce to the keys of saint peter to open the door to the kingdom of heaven, and even the crown Sora wears in the necklace is a reference to crown Of Jesus the king of kings, and the hearts even reference the famous depictions of the Jesus catholic sacred heart.You can go further and further thare is no end to it.
>>533617646Your paycheck went from $0.5 cents an hour to $1 by posting on 4chins. You are no emperor, you are just a sad pathetic dickless faggot.
>>533617576Wait this is neat I never knew about that. I wonder how different the models looked
Some are pretty obvious or obnoxious about it but most games just want to tell a story and show you a world
>>533617721Don't play the remaster. Just emulate it on pcsx2. It runs great even on slow computers
>>533617784Religion isn't political at least not to Japanese, that's just your retard brain on VPN hosted access talking out of your ass. Only time it is political is when its depicting historical drama like the catholics when they were isolated and whatever. They just think "that's a cool/fun thing to base a game around." Anyway if they are killing the "god of this realm" they are just killing Satan. Simple as.
Maybe.
>>533617799nonsense Plus I am the emperor because no one has ever argued and won against me for any reason whatsoever.
>>533617913I wish I could get into western media but it's so hard when they use art that looks like that lol. I was looking at a game called sam and max recently and it looks sorta cool
>>533615705Depends
>>533617999Your mom was a prostitute for a foreign business man. Doesn't make much of a claim to a throne.
>>533616345>Final Boypussy 10
>>533618104If working for a foreigner means being a prostitute, then everyone in your country is a prostitute. Because the entire world economy is connected, you moron.You women are whores for blacks and foreigners.
>>533618224What does that even mean
>Spira>You can get married to qt teen girls because people in Spira understand that they need to keep birth rates high to counteract Sin killing so many people, also Jews don't exist on Spira so there's no feminism there>Earth>Go to college and learn STEM and then work in a cubicle while teen Chad and Jeff the billionaire who didn't do this get all the prime teen pussy instead of you, get told you have to settle for roasties or an army of simps will put you in jail or murder you
>>533615705Yes those spavce invaders were all communist as far as I was concerned.Fucking millenials fuck everything the see up, they are like fucking jeets
>>533615755no
Kind of. They increasingly have a weird parasocial aspect to them. Not even 'friend simulator,' but more vague and perhaps even more thorough than that.>I couldn't wait for you to come and clear the cupboard...
>>533618428What does anything here even mean?
>>533615937It was the last "classic" Final Fantasy game.
>>533617784Yeah but a lot of Japanese people just see Christianity as an aesthetic and don't really understand it.
>>533619205I love you goodnight bye
>>533619205waifu of the year all years
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH10/10 game

The FF girls are so cute but the games are so cringe.
>>533619611>the games are so cringeThat's Japanese culture in a nutshell.

Any good games you're playing multiplayer in particular? Been playing arma reforger.
>>533620499Not multi-player but super monkey ball has been fun
>>533620497Do you know what's the specific clip that got played in parliament? I keep wondering.
>>533615755Aerith is white
>>533621133oh so she probably voted for this
is tidus white
>>533615705They have been for the past decade+, just like every other form of entertainment. Kikes went hard on pushing their agenda.
>>533615705Yes, liberals have been shoehorning their retarded ideology into video games long before the right identified wokeism.>>533615755All anime characters are hapas of varying degrees.
>>533617784> has the keys that are a refernce to the keys of saint peter to open the door to the kingdom of heaven, and even the crown Sora wears in the necklace is a reference to crown Of Jesus the king of kings, and the hearts even reference the famous depictions of the Jesus catholic sacred heart.>jrpg uses something>that means they are christian, because in the bible in verse x the use that something too?????
>>533617122>No, at least not the ones from Japan.Japanese video games are full of feminist nonsense, both covert and overt. You just don't notice it because the chicks are hot.
>>533621424he is right though
>>533621523They never used to be, that mostly only happened after the woke takeover.
>>533621575If I stand on that symbol and look up will I become able to fly?
>>533621424>>533621575
>>533621589which came from america
>>533615705Not originally.......
>>533620960>Italian flag>eating American-style pizza
>>533621589Japanese media has featured 3rd wave feminist propaganda since at least the early 90s. Female characters overpowering, outsmarting, or otherwise emasculating male characters. It's often played off as a joke or kawaii, but it's definitely been there long before the woke takeover.
people dieand yuna danceshow can we make sure she keeps dancing, anons?
>>533615705Games always had politicsIt's when games started to preach one-sided ideological politics that it became a problem
>>533621634
>>533621948bring back tidus and maybe she will
>>533616345>>533619289>>533615754>>533617018>>533617721The last classic final fantasy game was 6 you faggots.Holy shit I can't imagine anyone in this world playing Fagal Fagasy 10 without bleeding from the eyes.
>>533622174video games are cool sometimes. (not my picture). i miss the glow of a crt.
>>533621243Like holy shit look at this puffy pustule of a girlboy and imagine eighty hours of him bitching and whining and then remember there are people who think he's a masculine ideal that have been voting for a decade and tell me democracy wasn't an insane idea.
>>533621948Keep voting for pro-Israel candidates? (as if you have a choice lol)
>>533621824It's not Italy's fault there's a correct way to make pizza.
>>533615755yes
>>533622327>>533622260why are you so upset lol. tidus is sporty and cool.
>>533622260>boomers fapped to this
>>533622044I don't think even one-sided politics is the problem. Bioshock preached a pretty one-sided politics against libertarianism and capitalism. Yet, its one of the best games ever. I think its presentation and worldbuilding. Don't be a preachy, in-your-face retard and don't introduce the type of politics that doesn't belong in your particular world(see: Dragon Age Veilguard)
>>533615705No. Only the ones made by japs like this guy: >>533615785Japs are good at writing extremist and occult fiction with strange parallels to OTL.Kojima however writes neoliberal babble storylines for sexually confused teenagers.The underlying threat of Metal Gear Solid 1 is that nuclear weapons are being made by terrorists enriching used uranium.The thing Kojima has no idea about, is that this is fundamentally impossible given our current understanding of physics. You cannot enrich used uranium. It simply doesn't work.Once you know this, you have to totally suspend your belief while playing MGS otherwise nothing makes sense. It already doesn't make sense because it's a game but it especially doesn't make sense afterwards.
>>533622489isnt he the dude that made those lame walking simulators
>>533621589You think feminism is what happened in the last ten years and the shit from the 80s and 90s was "ok" and "harmless". Nigger, the feminism we had a hundred years ago wasn't "sustainable".The eighties and nineties were full of "cool girls" better at fighting or computers or any male thing and it was always going to lead to today.Shit, your parents grew up with the superman movies, take a good hard look at Lois Lane sometime and tell me the world just went crazy in the last ten years.My condolences Mr Lebowski the egalitarians lost. The Egalitarians ALWAYS LOOSE.
>>533622387Get that faggot bitch of the screen
>>533622555Everything went to shit when God invented women
>>533622555based and checked
>>533622553Yeah now he does. He used to make movie games before every game was a movie game.Just like how Valve used to make cutscenes in engine and environmental storytelling before every game made cutscenes in engine and environmental storytelling.Gaming is so fucking dead now its unreal.
>>533622489All art is "political" in that all communication is "political" because politics is just reality. No one's going to "leave you alone" no one's ever going to put their fundamental beliefs in one corner and "what is allowed by law" in the other. The only group in history to do so is the Boomers and those spiritually infected with their "I just wanna grill don't be political" brain parasite, and surprise the most dominant and prosperous society in human history crashed into flames and agony because one generation decided that "politics" was somehow this separate sporting event that means nothing."Beautiful things shouldn't be annihilated" and "Anon shouldn't be raped to death" are genuine, serious political positions, and the vote is being held right now.
>>533622260Posturing, faggot
>>533622555>You think feminism is what happened in the last ten years and the shit from the 80s and 90s was "ok" and "harmless".No I don't, feminism pushed age gap hysteria as the literal first thing it did, even before they pushed for women voting. It was nothing but a sexual trade union from the start. But the thing is, the women who were actually competent and desirable never needed feminism.
>>533622449Bioshock (agreed, damn good game) wasn't entirely one-sided though because it showed that Ryan's vision was flawedAn entirely ideologically-driven game won't give an inch, dogmatically insisting that 'if you're not with me you're against me and you're the problem'
>>533622698metal gear solid does look kind of interesting. is it mostly a stealth game? the only stealth game i have played is tenchu
>>533622449Lmao he thinks Bioshock is about Ayn Rand and not about what the creators said it was about, which is how Israel can't survive if there's even one Christian left alive on the planet.I bet you don't know The Last of Us is about how you're supposed to sacrifice your children to save Israel either and that's not even a secret by the devs.
>>533622820love that cover art
>>533622794>Le woke takeover Unless you meant the "woke takeover" of japan in the fucking 70s you're beyond retarded.
>>533622820>wasn't entirely one-sided though because it showed that Ryan's vision was flawedThat was the one side. The creators of the game said in interviews that the game was meant to be a critique of libertarianism and capitalism.
>>533622830MGS1-3 are good, but Kojima gets a lot more credit than he deserved. There's another lesser-known guy named Tomokazu Fukushima who actually did most of the research for the setting. He left after MGS3 and the series' storytelling took a nosedive in quality after that, becoming pretty much MCU-tier.
>>533622830Is this a serious question?I mean, the first game is not really a stealth game. It's an action game with movie-like cutscenes on the PS1. Some segments like the intro sequence heavily incentivize stealth though.It's okay by today's standards and really the only one worth playing. Some swear by MGS3, a lot of people disliked the rest of the series.There is an alternate Gamecube remaster of MGS1 but it takes several liberties in game design and style that many fans don't like.
>>533622820Dude Ryan was a Jew and he built underwater Israel and everything was "good" until an evil irishman brought a crate full of Bibles to Rapture.This is all in the game.The entire story is about how your father wishes you were a "man" but a human would be immune to mind control, you're unfortunately born from a "Shiksa" he abused, and as the Talmud says, you're not a jew unless your mother was.
>>533622961thanks anon maybe ill try them someday. its not my usual genre but maybe its time to branch out a little
>>533622982Fuck the haters I liked The Twin Snakes. 90% of them are just snoys mad that MGS1 was no longer exclusive to them.
>>533622982>Is this a serious question?yes lol. i dont usually pay attention to mgs and only remember a gif of him peaking around a corner trying to avoid a guard or something
>>533623040You can try MGRR first. It's hack and slash and less woke (though not completely) as Kojima wasn't involved.
>>533622848>anon bioshock is based on atlas shrugged it‘s so based!!!>see the cover it‘s a golden figure, like we see in the game>expect a story about entering a society like rapture and exploring it>it‘s a self-insert story of a soo smart woman, where every guy (especially the big rich and very smart ceo or the good looking and smart rebel) fall in love with her and how everything that is not turbo capitalism is bad! >look up author wikipedia>female, who lived in the udssr, flew to america and loves capitalism sooo muchThat was really disappointing
>>533615755Tidus and Yuna are Asian. Look at their fucking eye lids.
>>533622848Was that scene in Final Fantasy VII with Aerith and Sephiroth also meant to show how Israel keeps treating its Amerigolems?
>>533623134>It's hack and slashfun
>>533623140I feel embarassed that there was a time I used to like Ayn Rand
>>533623116Yes I know. I actually like TS too. It's how I first played it. The butthurt comes from snoys who don't want to admit it's superior in some aspects.
>>533622449>>533622820>>533623031Required material to understand Bioshock: https://odysee.com/$/playlist/90c807764318bb931ad3074fbd7eaee3912ad5a1>Dude Ryan was a Jew and he built underwater Israel and everything was "good" until an evil irishman brought a crate full of Bibles to Rapture.>This is all in the game.>The entire story is about how your father wishes you were a "man" but a human would be immune to mind control, you're unfortunately born from a "Shiksa" he abused, and as the Talmud says, you're not a jew unless your mother was.Right on the money.
Bump
>>533620499Over The Top - WW1.Imagine Mount & Blade 2 but it's WW1, you can dig trenches and drive tanks.Unfortunately it's a bit niche and a lot of people couldn't get past the release day glitches, so there's 150-600 people playing.Fortunately I remember when Holdfast couldn't breach 300 every day either. Look what became of that.
>>533616538I had no idea about the gross amount of souls = PvP matching mechanic, and got absolutely fucked after farming Awestones and grinding out smithing shit. I tried, but getting anally gaped every time I matched with someone for PvP really pissed me off. Enough that it made me drop the game. I dropped the first one after getting to the area with Seath.Is it even worth buying three, or is there going to be some other faggot reason I totally stop enjoying the game? It's like I get invested and 40+ hours into it Fromsoft designs yet another cocksucker reason to ruin the game for me.I might just wait and play Queen's Domain. At least if I suck dick at that I can probably grind without being punished for no reason. tl;dr frustrating =/= hard, I am not a homosexual and Hillary Clinton is a criminal and potentially a demon.

>>533626962Well, that explains a few things. Maybe you should get some sleep.
Maybe
>>533627104what does it explain? good night :)
>>533627182It explains things. Goodnight.
just replayed FFX International on a ps2 emulator this past winter. was great to revisit. much better than the horrible HD remaster, having FF button will really help you. re: no FF characters are mostly Japanese but they all look mixed. except the black ones are obviously American.
this was pretty fun
>>533615705Anything is a vehicle for ideas.
>>533615705Most Japanese games are a natural evolution of classic forms of mythic art; they just have a standalone positive message or inspirational heroes tale not meant to be a direct stand in for any real world ideology, but more an appeal to core civic pillars. Tolkien tried to create this for the West, too, hoping LOTR would basically take the place of stuff like the Iliad or Arthurian legends, which it sort of did for a while. That’s why the troon squad is so hellbent on corrupting and destroying it. Kind of ironic; in LOTR the orcs represent the seedy, jealous, spiteful corruption of goodness and beauty, and modern LOTR is a seedy, jealous, spiteful corruption of the original story.
