>do nothing>go woke go brokechudda bros...
I think that's a shame because they took risks on some pretty cool games, like Robocop, GreedFall and Heck is Us
>>733781792>>733781792Yeah, it was a risk to make a bunch of woke video games. Stupid company goes bankrupt. Many such cases.
>>733781676>Greedfall 2>Cthulhu: The Cosmic AbyssYeah. Nacon is fucked.
>>733782006But ..didnt they get a bunch of DEI money so they wouldnt flop? They were just making woke games because the left gov told them to right? Why they still doing it? Huuuuh?!?@???
>>733781676i heard it was shit compared to styx 1, what was woke about it
>>733782428That stupid evil pedophile orange chudcel cut off USAID and DEI funding so there wasn't enough money to go around
>>733782428That and the tariffs have already raised $40 billion from other countries to fund it. How are these companies going bankrupt when Trump is giving them this much DEI cash?
>>733782610the game is fr*nch tho
is the gaming industry going to crash the economy? its not looking so good
>>733782841Which is a struggling and wartorn African country yes.
>>733782610Imagine how much better modern entertainment would be if Blackrock funding also dried up.
>>733782809>tariffs>from other countries
>>733782610>USAID and DEI fundingI find it sad some people actually still think this money went to anyone in need rather than NGOs after politicians took their cut.
>>733782578If it's anything like 2 they took the entirely wrong lessons from it and turned tasteful big bang theory millennial writing into wholesome reddit chungus writing dialed to 11. I can't imagine how they'd manage to make it even worse than 2 but I firmly believe in the incompetence of modern writers.
>>733781676ACKshame to see the Robocop Rogue City publisher going under
>>733782809The only people paying tariffs are the consumer.
>>733782610So why is Sony still doing it, like with that new Horizon game?
>>733781676how the fuck do you make a woke Goblin game? thats impressive.
Game companies need to start using kickstarter again. Actually prove the idea before spaffing some pension funds investment on a retarded idea
>>733781676What woke about Styx?
>>733783479because orcs are black
>>733783430roflmao "people" unironically believe this. if shit costs too much consumers just buy something that costs less. the onus to stay competitive is always on the company.
>>733783478the employees have all been replaced by people with the same ideology instead of people who want to make fun vidya
>>733781676Styx 3 is probably great and all but it does feel extremely unpolished and low budget so it makes sense.
>>733781792This. Nacon and Focus Home are kino
>>733783559goblins are niggers and the watch is comically evil white supremacists who chatter about how many niggobs they're going to kill after they drown this kitten and small child.
>>733782945This. It's weird that Trump claimed to get rid of DEI but he's literally funding it
>>733783715>goblins are niggersThat's not woke tho
Vidya industry is collapsing
>>733782841Woke is killing every industry in every country in the world. We have a DEI president in the US and he's tanking the economy
>>733782428>But ..didnt they get a bunch of DEI money so they wouldnt flop?That's now how it works. The sole reason for DEI content is that your stock is DEI compliant, and thus compatible with every type of portfolio.
>>733783350Yeah, it's been going to Trump and republicans for the past years. Don't know why people think it's going anywhere else.
>styxall I know about it was that it was some sort of stealth game about a goblin
>>733783420>shame to see the Robocop Rogue City publisher going underall woke slop gets the rope
>>733783737listening to the same tired old hamfisted allegories to atlantic slavery in a fantasy game is
>>733783582This. Alt-right incel murder fantasy games are considered inclusive/woke/dei and so too is having an alt-right incel as the protagonist
>>733783559alt-right representation in jewish media
>>733783747yep, israeli president trump is rugpulling america and crashing all of the industriesorange man .. le good!
So what did the cheeto man do to make reddit upset this week
>>733783964you didn't play the game
>>733784259why would I play woke slop? are you mad?
How was it woke?II remember playing a Styx demo (not sure which one - the first one I think) on PS4. Seemed cool.
>>733784246he's raised the trump tax on americans from 10% to 15% because one of his judges pissed him off lol
>>733784296>>733784026
>>733784296Probably the first one. The writing in 2 would stick in your head so hard you'd never doubt your memories.https://youtu.be/Ft14UHQXfIQ
>>733782428That’s not the pointThey make the DEI game with Taxpayer nigger DEI money then they dissolve because they instantly know that nobody will buy their shitThen they dissolve and are absorbed into the next SJW company because remember, ALL of them need government help because guess what, governments killed small businesses in the early 2000s
>>733784368non-americans*
>>733784456Damn, I had no idea that Trump's grift extended to the video games industry as well. That's straight out of the Republican playbook.
>>733784440So it's because the orcs are black?I thought that was only something left-leaning people believed/complained about.
>>733784279did you know failing to understand context is a symptom for autism?
>>733784630whoops, my bad, yeah Mexico is paying 15% for styx and the wall
>>733784448>The writing in 2 would stick in your head so hard you'd never doubt your memories.Because it's good or because it's bad?Pretty sure it was the first one anyways.
>>733784669>replying to yourselflol what a loser
>>733784683You're autistic? I'm sorry to hear that
>>733784669yeah the orcs are black and the alt-right incel creeps around in the shadows killing themnaturally this inclusive idea wasn't popular with anyone really and incels don't really buy video games which is why it bankrupted the company lol
>>733784726Bad. I'm not saying the writing in 1 was a high bar to clear but the brain sewage they spewed out in 2 was just insultingly shit even if that style of humour is your thing.
>>733784728
>>733781676Im honestly more surpised they managed to release 4 or 5? goblin games
>>733784853it's not too surprising, they basically just re-released the same game and tossed a few shekels to pajeets to randomly generate new maps
>>733784827what makes a goblin an alt-right incel? thought it'd be a stand in for jews. of course chuds aren't going to buy that.>and incels don't really buy video games that's a weird point to lean on - what's your reasoning there?
>>733781676>do nothing>rightwing woke games keep failingOHMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
In a way I ALMOST feel sorry for these douchebags. Like, imagine you are surrounded nonstop by a bunch of communist weirdos telling you that the gamer chuds are the minority while absolutely flooding you with propaganda. You go to GDC, it's an LGBT ted talk. You go to your games reddit, its filled with the liberal audience (little do you know the community managers banned everybody else), your device friends? All us vs them purple haired weirdos. They got you in a bubble for so long and have so many struggle sessions with you that you can't help but be inundated with an extremism so far left that anything stepping right of you looks like a literal nazi.But at least they are failing for not having the balls to stand against the wave. It's gonna take a massive earthquake of a shake up to ever fix modern western game development.
>>733784974The reasoning is that you're replying to someone trying to falseflag over a game he never played.
>>733783379>tasteful big bang theory millennial writing
>>733784846bummer. presumably the first was pretty well received (considering it got a sequel).I remember thinking about how it would have been a cool franchise to try revive Thief style games (I didin't play the demo too much).
>>733781676Styx isn't woke what the hell are you on about?
>>733785016I know, I just like to egg them on.Also, there's a slight chance that it's one that can actually verbalize their position and have some kind of strength in their conviction.
>>733781676wasn't nacon involved in some scandal? I vaguely remember some dev saying they were getting screwed by them. frogwares perhaps?
>>733785042*twists your nipples, tickles your armpits, blows a raspberry on your belly*Rakash!
>>733784974>pretending to not understand thingsOh look, another left wing lunatic pretending that his alt-right high murder fantasy game isn't woke. How unexpected.
There is nothing woke about Styx lmao you people are mindbroken
>>733784974Why would Israel depict jews as goblins? They are the orcs and they're being persecuted by the sexless nazi goblino musturd race
>>733785172Yeah, but this wasn't the ukraine based studio's"only scandal" with publishers."The studio has encountered several disputes with its business partners. The company released its first game, Sherlock Holmes: The Mystery of the Mummy, in 2002. Frogwares filed several lawsuits against its distribution intermediaries, claiming the companies did not pay them fairlyThe studio then chose Focus Home Interactive as a licensee from 2004–2005 to 2014–2015. In 2019, Frogwares claimed Focus Home Interactive was not the publisher of the games, but a distribution intermediary that did not participate in the financing of games.[36]The relationship between the two companies ended in a dispute in the fall of 2019 when Focus Home Interactive's license ended. The situation resulted in the temporary withdrawal of most Frogwares games from sale. Frogware, who remains the sole owner of the rights, had to initiate new certifications and online publishing processes for each individual game to make them available for purchase again. The titles reappeared gradually in 2020.
>>733785091>rightwing woke game fails>it's not woke! it's just not ok!!Why are wokies like this?
I suspect this thread is heavily botted. Posts are too similar. There is no way someone would actually spend hours of their life retyping the same buzzword nonsense. Right?.... right?
>>733785172The CEO was caught having anal sex with RFK and contracted syphilis
I was genuinely growing tired of these incompetent mongoloids and their SHIT video games. No one wanted more of your goblin shit.>just ignore them you autistDon't care, fuck 'em
Who is Styx? Never heard of them, what games did they even make? How many awards under their belts?
>>733785431Epstein has been botting 4chan for over a decade. You act as if this is some new revelation. Israel has been distracting incels with American jews while they destabilize the west.
>>733785481Such is the fate of woke slop and incels in general. Rightwing males make up 80% of all suicides in the world.
>>733785594What?
>>733783420>publisherWho gives a fuck about that? Don't tell me I crossed over into the timeline where people have no idea what devs and publishers are again. I hate it there.
>>733783608It highly depends.There's a concept in economics called Price Elasticity of DemandSome goods are highly sensitive to price increases, they have elastic demand, meaning the supplier is forced to sell at the same prices as before and bear with the losses.Other goods have inelastic demand, meaning the consumer will keep buying even as prices rise. In such cases the supplier can simply raise prices and take no loss selling the product.
>>733785481Styx is a series of stealth games where you play as a goblin Pretty interesting stuff Post is talking about the third game of said series that just released
>>733785650>rightists pretending not to understand thingsWhat is this tactic called?
>>733785532when is your bedtime?
>>733782428Does pretending to be a retard actually work?
>>733785762normalcy
>>733785761So they released a third game, didn't add "final" anywhere on its title, and yet, expected people to understand the game was a cry for help as they were going under? Then they deserved it.How was I suppose to know if I didn't buy the third game they would go bankrupt?
>>733785481>Who is Styx? Never heard of them, what games did they even make?One of the few surviving stealth genre games still being made. The first game in the actual universe was a 3rd party beat'em up where you play as an orc and goblin duo. Mid reviews but people liked the goblin character and his Stealth play so much they made two Pre-sequel games about his origins. They are still praised for actually staying on point with the actual stealth of the genre meaning you're never really getting superpower kill them all skills in the game and you have to rely on the actual stealth action to beat the stages. Hope the developers find another publisher actually intelligent with their game publishing, The stealth genre is nonexistent at the best of times nowadays
>>733785825You won't find any children here, Mr. Vance. This site is 18+
>>733785873Why don't rightists understand things? Are they born retarded or are their brains turned to gravy from a constant stream of right-wing propaganda?
the idea of the styx games are greatthe controls are just awfulimpressive how they didn't optimize on that for three whole games
>>733786126because they don't need to, just like a baker doesn't need to understand how a nuclear reactor works
>>733786028what games can compare to this Styx thingy?
>>733786319dishonored and mgsv
If we're talking about flops, why is 4chan down from a million post per day to like 530k now
>>733786234I see. They only need to understand the instructions given to them by their jewish overlords. That makes sense.
>>733785989Cyanide is the developer of the games, Nacon was the publisher. It's not the developer's duty to try and keep the publishers checkbook in order. Hopefully another publisher scoop's them up soon so they can continue with the series
>studio that only made dogshit goes bankruptwoah
>>733786319Dishonored, Thief 4, Hitman Absolution, Thief 3 if we're feeling generous.
>>733786398Indeed, Israel commands, the rest obeys. No one can stop them, even that gaza shit was an inside job.
>>733786394That one guy that really hated Gura killed himself when she graduated.
>>733786394Polniggers shitting the place up made people lose interest
>>733786474>>733786390Am I right to assume those games are suppose to be good games? I would like to try this "genre" out.I played Thief 1 as a kid but I didn't understand it. I'm nearly 40 years old now, surely I can grasp the mechanics nowadays.
>>733786472Retard.
>>733781676>game is not doing well since they clearly did not advertise the game and most people found out about it the week it was released >POLITICS POLITICS POLITICS - /v/What causes this behavior?
>>733786394Because every single post now is tied to your IP thanks to "spur.us "integration. Of course all discussion of this is banned even in tech board like /g/.
>>733786557Not really but they're the best the styx kind of stealth genre has to offer. Thief 3 is a really nice example of the turning point in game design where direct action was replaced by miniunskippablecutscenescripts so console babies could adapt.
>>733786468It's the developers job to make money for the publisher, however. You don't do that with releasing wokeslop like Styx.
>>733786394People are waking up to jewish rightwing bot activity and are walking away
>>733781676>woke
>>733786557It's literally don't get seen, don't make unnecessary sound, use your environments, traps, and daggers to kill enemies, and get rid of their bodies. It's a game where you can wait around at a point to learn the patrolling enemy's routes and habits and plan out how to ether take them out or get through without being seen. The best scores are where you figure out a plan on how to eliminate them either fast as possible, silently as possible, or as creatively as possible to get to the next objective.
>>733786690Probably game companies injecting woke rightwing beliefs into their video games. Just a guess.
>>733786690How retarded do you have to be to not notice that the guy sperging out about politics in here is a single leftwing schizo who is mad at 4chan allowing people to disagree with him?I bet all you wanted to do was post that gay picture, so you came in here with your brain already turned off.
>>733786690How retarded do you have to be to not notice that the guy sperging out about politics in here is a single rightwing schizo who is mad at 4chan allowing people to disagree with him?I bet all you wanted to do was post that gay picture, so you came in here with your brain already turned off.

>>733787157>>733787203>put a red hat on it>it always works without failI guess it's true what they say. Every accusation is a confession with rightists lmao
>>733787220He's retarded but I think he meant that your online behavior is attached to every post, which is true
>>733787203Buck status: broken
>>733786806I doubt it, admitting fault would cause a collapse of your own "Aura" and will cause "Subscriber loss"You can just get chud shit from the mainstream nowadays and most anti-woke people are actually very blatantly conformist and don't even like the punk overtures that 4chan has. The right-wing is punk thing has always been more of a coping mechanism and now that they're pop punk they are ready to be mainstream again. That is like the whole neurosis going on. That is why chuds love the 80s because that was when you had vapid rightiod coded garbage blaring out of the screens constantly. Hoes shaking their asses on camera, "Apolitical" movies with nothing to really say outside of le good guy wins because he is part of the government and the government is good. All that kind of shit.
>>733788187Well bot activity has been at a historic high and and the numbers don't lie so what else could it be?
>>733781676Blades of Greed was good. I don't care about what you perceived as woke. Also it likely had nothing to do with what you suggest but actually to do with the fact that stealth games don't sell. Especially since every gamer is a braindead Dark Souls players nowadays. Unfortunately no one likes supporting them. Which is the only proof i need to know that these kinds of games will never be attempted again. I'm not holding my breath to ever see this genre return. So this is pretty sad news. Maybe I will actually sell off my own hardware knowing that the gaming has pretty much changed forever compared to how it was in the mid 2000s.
>>733788635>I don't care about bending on my principles, I like woke games, but I'll only call games I don't like woke in publicRightists truly have no principles. This is why nobody should ever take them seriously. They are clowns.

>>733782578Lesbian dwarf in the trailer killed the hype for me, deep sale only now if ever. Hear that Nacon/Cyanide? You lost a cunt who double dipped on both Styx games (PS4 then PC) because you put a chick in it and made her gay.
Do nothing win.
>>733788781What are you talking about? shut the fuck up. I'm into stealth video games. I don't care about what you're whining about. I don't agree with every developers political views but i can filter out those i disagree with. My principles have nothing to do with interactive entertainment. What the fuck is wrong with younger generations? i swear to god twitter and tumblr fucked with your heads and turned you insane. No one used to speak like this a long time ago.
>>733783420Rebrand the franchise with a green smoking hot lisard/snake lady as the protagonist, reek in the billions. It's that easy.
There's no audiences for this kind of game anymore.
>>733789153Yeah. Do nothing, like produce anything of value. China won't ever cater to niche gamers and make stuff like Styx. All they will do is shit out Dark Souls garbage for an eternity because they suck.
>>733783559it's only not woke if the game has an abundance of half naked busty virgin girls and the MC is the only love interest...secondaries dilute every term
>>733788991Rightists support the wealthy elite's class war though.

>>733789153Pretty much. China is going to replace the US as the global superpower all because rightists thought now would be a good time to strip all of the copper like a bunch of crackheads lmao
>>733791118I don't know how my original comment had anything to do with you with what you were speaking about. All i know is that you probably smell like a dead hobo and attended Occupy Wall St. in 2011.
>>733781676aw man, I was gonna buy that one. I liked the other sneaky goblin games... well the 2nd one. 1st was kinda shit.
>>733791457>point out that rightists support the class warfare>bots come out of the woodwork and drop occupy wall stAnyone else notice that this always happens even though occupy hasn't been relevant in 15 years? The shit is older than gamergate even lmao
>>733784761You are sorry? lol, faggot
>>733791572What are you noticing it? me liking a video game and you randomly changing the subject to call me someone without principles? there are no principles attached to video games. They are entertainment. You have a fucked up idea about what this medium is supposed to be about other than being fun.
>>733791632Your mother was a good woman but she made poor decisions.
>>733791842>video games are supposed to be fun said anon as he was melting down and throwing a tantrumNo principles, but they make fantastic clowns
>>733791842>What are you noticing it?pajeet pls go these right wingers aren't paying you enough lmao
I don't think Styx is particularly woke, but I've been avoiding a lot of these smaller AA games recently because they all run on UE5, and thus run like shit.If your AA game runs like a AAA game, I'm probably not going to spend money on it.
>>733792261nobody asked tho
Poor people aren't human and they cannot act like humans, we need an under race for the world to work and poor people are perfect for it.Sometimes i still want to eat a big mac not a $100 steak and the world needs big macs

>>733782428>DEI moneyThat's the best part, these retards sold their souls not for free DEI money, but for favorable loan conditions....its not their money at all and they still owe it back to blackrock at a slightly lower interest rate.
I'm playing through it and having fun. Almost beat Act 2.It didn't fail because it's 'woke', it just had no marketing and even people who casually enjoyed the previous two didn't know it released.That said there is some woke stuff in it.All the bad guys are white males. There's no darker skinned enemy in the game. Nor does there seem to be women. Sometimes you can hear dialogue between enemies while skulking around and they SOUND kind of like a woman but then there's no enemy with a female model.Now this can just be dismissed as the game being low budget and the developer just not wanting to create more than one model, but then the story is all about Styx and his Marvel's Avengers-esque super diverse team flying around disrupting an imperialist invasion against orcs (who, in yet another super racist move by self-proclaimed progressive devs, are obvious stand-ins for indigenous black people).In the end it's easily ignorable because 95% of the game is just typical fun stealth shit. The game is super open with its level design leaving multiple routes and expressive gameplay you can pull off, the AI is serviceable, and the writing is serviceable too.Would recommend, especially if you like stealth games.
>>733793339It may not be woke but its handily the worst styx game from sound design to personality to bugs
