What is up with games made/funded by mega-corporations having stories about defying mega-corporations?
>>
>>719909989
they're pandering to the masses that love to cheer on completely useless protests and passive aggressive twitter posts about how terrible corporations are (before they go to wal-mart for groceries and a fast fashion store built on child labor for clothes)
>>
>>719909989
its because Leftists are fine with just pretending/fantasizing about living out their stated Leftist dreams of killing all rich people and people they disagree with.

however, they will gladly be good little Goys to Megacorps to the bitter end because they are addicted to servitude to them

Everyone got replaced after almost a decade of chasing ESG scores, Sweet Baby Inc style consulting and DEI.
Now all the higher ups working at these companies is one of (((them))).
They won, essentially. AAA games are doomed.
Play indie or old games.

It goes further back than that, anon. It all started in the year 1999, when a lush that went by the handle of "lowtax" created a website called 'Something Awful'. It was all downhill from there.

Power tries to legitimize itself by courting retarded NPC plebeians' [CURRENT_THING] is a tale as old as time. Nobles in the middle ages would pretend to be the most pious christians, Machiavelli would recommend monarchs to court the populace in detriment of the nobles since one does well to undermine the closest ones in power to them, the same way the uber rich these days sic the ultra poor against the middle class, as seen in the promotion of woke crap as a damage control against Occupy Wall Street.
To cite Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars:
>The social welfare program is nothing more than an open-ended credit balance system which creates a false capital industry to give nonproductive people a roof over their heads and food in their stomachs. This can be useful, owever, because the recipients become state property in return for the "gift," a standing army for the elite. For he who pays the piper picks the tune

The first one looked interesting but it became clear very quick how bland it all was. Looked it up later and you just spend the game playing wingman for your lesbian companion?

Write what you know?
Would it make more sense if megacorps made stories where entrepreneurs and brands (and You, the consumer!) are fighting governments, the morally repugnant and other enemies in ways that test well with audiences?

Or does it make more sense that in a world where you have your position not because of your creativity, self awareness or potentially even your genuine value to the company, and you've lost all connection to the "common man" (or consumer demographic of choice), that you instead make or commission stories influenced by other political trends like "America Bad, USSR Good"?

I think the entire middle class (where you get artists and project managers from) is just subverted by political activism but either has zero control over their own fate or the indoctrination hasn't reached critical mass yet, as the end goal of their rhetoric is the genocidal destruction of the 1%, which includes them.

It has to take it off to kill everyone — everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the world...Then you know."), to loss and moving on from the past, about handling the struggles and hardships of life. The kind of game written by people who actually have a good understanding of the world.

I already didn't care about TOW, but when I saw that stupid teaser for TOW2 years ago, I fucking groaned. "Haha, look at us, we revealed we made a game too early! Haha, laugh at how we know we're making a game about capitalism when we're owned by a big megacorp!" Miss me with that bullshit.
