Separation of art from artist should be standard policy anyway if you want to ignore drama.

There's no way to predict what social media will do with your game. There was some game a couple of years back that got reviewbombed because some AI voiced Tiktok video about upcoming games falsely brought it up as a multiplayer crafting survival game and dumb viewers felt betrayed when it was actually a short single-player game.

There's your mistake, you don't have to reach shit, in fact it's better if you isolate yourself from your fan base, see Valve. Few years back they wanted to cancel Valve for not changing their profile picture during fag month, they just ignored it and it went away it's that easy.

so how to advertise without paying? Just create an "official account" and post trailers and maybe some inoffensive fanarts?

>>
>>724224130
>so how to advertise without paying?
You can have an account to post shit, just don't engage with the community. But honestly if you're lucky some streamer will pick up your game and from there it will spread. Good games tend to advertise themselves through word of mouth.
>>
>>724222215
Toby Fox is EXACTLY like his fanbase though. He's a total wimp who's into femboys and troons and dykes and shit. It's no wonder he has zero issues with his fanbase when he's the very person his games appeal to, duh

It makes me laugh when they find something like the guy's private porn account that you can only trace by using leaked emails/passwords, and the damning evidence they show off is something extremely cringe like cuckold raceplay fartporn but what they focus on is the extremely petty fact that the character in the video is canonically 15 or whatever.

You are retarded
50% of the gaming industry fanbase ARE faggots or faggot-adjacent. This is because mentally sane people don't spend twenty hours a day on gaming, they go out and do shit
Look at games like Plants Vs. Zombies, the franchise has NOT ONCE appealed to troons in any way but guess what? The fanbase is literally all fucking troons, because normal people play the games once and move on. Same with many other games
There is no way to avoid mentally ill loons except to just... not release a product and keep it private to your family and friends
>>
>>724225849
No, trannies and faggots are overrepresented in online discourse because the squeaky wheel gets the oil. They're loud, they're obnoxious, and for the last decade it's normal people opposed to their bizarre faggotry that have been banned and strongarmed into keeping their mouths shut. There are numerous ways to avoid trannies, primarily by denying them scalps. I posit that every man in every game should be able bodied, white, and stated heterosexual - every woman should be the same, as well as stated to have two X chromosomes.

No, troons took over in the past because they were funded and again - very dedicated to strongarming everyone who didn't take part in their weird fetish out of whatever space they were in. We aren't doing that anymore, this specifically was defeated at the ballot box. The simplest way to deny the tranny power is to simply deny the tranny power.

>>
A grand total or zero extra copies of a video game have been sold due to a developer saying le trans rights or acting like le based chud. Just shut the fuck up and release your game. If you aren't a politician, publicizing your political views is always a net negative.
Just ignore all drama and pretend nothing ever happened. Deny, fully ignore or apologize at the beginning, it doesn't matter. Just make sure to memory hole it immediately after. I've seen YouTubers who do this recover from even the most vile drama in a year and everyone losing interest and moving onto another drama.

I run a gamedev server and gradually I've watched it get populated by the people I wish would hang themselves, schmoozing and gooning trannies who can only ever think and talk about one thing and that's how trans they are. I wish I could just remove them all for derailing everyday interactions but a bunch of them are financial backers and I feel a satisfaction in taking their money. It's sad that we're not quite at a cultural point yet where one can openly say what we think without organized cancellation efforts.

If the shipper is self aware, then they are doing it because they like thd idea and thus dont care how realistic the couple is or what the writer themselves has to say about it.
If they're developing a serious headbanging around it, then they are mentally deranged and thus it won't matter what the voice of God tells them.

I just want my game to speak for itself. Personally I hate the idea of marketing, sales isn't for me, because every act of persuasion that isn't showing gameplay footage or discussing the product seems disrespectful to the audiance's time and intelligence. I don't make games for money but I'm learning how to make games now and I think I'd rather have 500 fans who love my game for the game vs a big old marketing campaign tweeting at an audiance about how many charities my dev team likes or whatever. I realize that tickles a lot of people. Shit, I've seen indie game discords for games still on development get daily rabid fan activity circlejerking the game aesthetically like a culture, they eat sleep breath that shit, and I'm not against people having fun with that, bit sycophantic to me, but it sounds like a huge headache to corral as the manager/project leader, and if you don't corral that's how you get Roblox-tier reputations of neglecting your own community. I guess owning the discord channel does specifically obligate you to keep it clean but you see how much work that is?

the sad truth is that natural discovery for what you like just doesnt work anymore. it has to either be you actively going out and hunting your audience down or word of mouth (which only works if you have a large enough fanbase)

You don't need to say anything if you're clearly on board the gay commie party train already. If you're suspected otherwise, you will be increasingly targeted and harassed to either swear allegiance or reveal yourself as a chud.

>>724227045
People assigning how you feel is 50% why those creators on a pedestal feel the need to speak up.
Also, not wanting to alienate your audiance, something /v/ has been screaming about for years from the perspective of classical male nerd gamers is something I think more hsve in mind than we realize but their methods to go about it are very different. An indie creator could think
>hey, if I go online and say 'trans rights!', I'll win the favor of a crowd that needs to hear that otherwise they think you are against them, I'm not saying 'fuck men' or 'fuck male gamers' by doing that, it should be a win-win, right?
And then get shocked when people who hate, disagree, or even feel neutral but fatigued see it as nothing but a red flag. I really do not envy the job of PR, people (collectively) are stupid and manipulatable, but just like dark evil magic that shit can turn on you and eat you alive at the drop of a hat. Playing with fire imo

>A grand total or zero extra copies of a video game have been sold due to a developer saying le trans rights or acting like le based chud
That's a big statement to make without evidence. It's like the "piracy doesn't effect game sales" debate how does one prove that?

>>724232526
JK Rowling keeps saying anti trans shit, some faggots even tried cancelling people for playing the game and hogwarts legacy was still a huge success. Anyone who's not retarded ignored the controversy and just played and enjoyed the game.

Just shill on 4chan. Anything that becomes big here will eventually become big on reddit and xitter anyways, either directly by their users who come here, or indirectly by "content creators" who come here and eventually see a game here that they like and make videos about it.

You have to cultivate the mentality to just let go. Once your product and characters are out in the wild you can't go policing what people do with them on their own spaces, if only because it's a bad look, whenever you see someone go ballistic for seeing porn of their characters you know people will just double down. Want to see less of a thing? Ignore it

Why would you "push a ship" you are the author just make canon pairings and ignore the shippers.
>>
>>724234160
You make art of your game and give said ship a bit of a focus without saying anything outright, people fucking love overanalyzing things and will take that as canon confirmation when of you say nothing. Nothing you can do against ships you don't like

Even with pedophilia, there are weird rules about what "normie internet" deems to be pedoshit. I remember that one FNAF Vhs creator who got labelled as a pedo for accepting an NSFW art request from someone who turned out to be a minor. Like yeah don't get me wrong, that was screwed up and he probably shouldn't have done that. But acting like he was some kind of chomo was a bit weird.

These Anons get it. If you do enough signalling beforehand by other means (like in your games), they'll just take over your social media duties for you, and tell everyone "this is what you think btw". Because they just assume you are part of their hivemind which tolerates no deviation in thought. These people have become extremely efficient at weeding out misfits over the decades, it's a culture of constantly snitching on each other and shit-testing to make sure nobody oversteps the arbitrary line. If they press you, then it's because they think you're suspect i.e. haven't said or done a thing that implies full support (NOT indifference!) of <current_leftist_hysteria>. It's a game where the only 'winning' move is not to play, and still the potential cost is having random online freaks effectively in charge of your public opinion. Being a normal person gamedev in ad 2025 is pain.

unfortunately marketing is a race to the bottom: most companies get sales through scummy practices and flimsy value propositions. since everyone is doing it, nearly everyone will assume you're doing it too, so you're pigeonholed into dishonest marketing tricks (misleading claims lies that are technically not lies) too.
the only way to break out of that is for everyone to refrain from deceiving consumers, and we all know there's no way in hell that's gonna happen

The weirdest part about internet drama shit is pearl clutchy it feels and how seriously they take it.
>OMG did you hear that (insert creator) said the n word? This is serious stuff!
>Yeah he has to release an apology video!
>Literal children watch his video too! Therir young minds could be influenced!

And every creator who collabed with him or previously associated with him feels pressured to release a statement against him or something.

Idk but this feels fucking gay to me. Even concepts like "apology videos" and "releasing statements" feel weird to me. It's the fucking internet lol, why the fuck should anyone even care about saying anything more elaborate than "Hey that's screwed up man." Why should anyone be obliged to play the role of "internet babysitter?"

Genuinely, how do you counter this type of obnoxious hysteria and pearl clutching from these parasocials?
