>Gamers don't have to be your audience.What?!https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/-gamers-don-t-have-to-be-your-audience-gamers-are-over-
gamers are fucking retarded
>>750200383>marketing solely to sweaty nerds living in mommies basement instead of creating projects with broad appeal to people of all demographics.Yeah nah yeah, this was the right call. Sorry not sorry but BIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA people buy games too and in greater number than chuds.
>>750200383>Twelve year old article
>>750200514Oh, no...
>>750200643I wonder if it'll have any consequences
>>750200643They call you the offended one btw, also she's correct. To this day, angry men harass devs behind excuses that they tolerate with pedophiles who ratfuck them
>August 28, 2014Move on.
>>750200514Yeah, how's that working out for you?
>>750200383Creditors can be your audience
>>750200383The modern audience never existed all those companies were scammed into closure.
>>750200383>omg that was 12 years ago and you're still mad???Yes.
>>750200383You are misinterpreting the intention. It is an article aimed at developers, encouraging them to reconsider creating products for the enemy.
>>750200643>when they can't play the "it never happened" card
>>750200438true, but it will not help sell more copies
>>750201764and we were called insane for telling them that it would happen>you're just a bigot mad that he can't jerk off to video games anymorelike, whatever, it's not my money you're gambling with. I have decades of games to play, I don't need "the industry" at all
>>750200643yeah over twelve fucking years to correct course, never once taking the opportunity. pretty bad, huh?
>>750200643And...
>>750201791
>>750200514Lol. You keep trying to appeal to normies but they ain't buying shit unless there is a ball or gun in the game and half the time they ain't even buying the shooters because it's fuck ugly to look at
>>750200383This retarded industry has been paying the price for refusing learn how wrong this is time and time again ever since. Every single time a worthless woke pile of shit with a budget of nearly half a billion dollars flops, it was because this braindead and fundamentally incorrect mentality was behind it.
>>750202371here's a tax-funded bailout, maybe it will work next time
>>750200383I like that it practically defines what a regular audience is (or consumer base for everything ever) as if that was a negative, in a statement that is practically>Your customers? Don't need those.
>>750203013but that's the exact message. if you can collect a salary for 5 years because some investor was willing to pay it, and you can find another identical arrangement once that one ends, you literally do not need customers.
>>750200643yeah, culture has been frozen since 2016, that was the year we all decided to stop progressing
>>750200383Do you think there'll ever be lawsuits over the money lost from this shit? Or will publishers prefer to pretend like they never fell for it?
>>750200438gamers are fucking retarded and don't know what they want most of the time but the flip is you get casuals and casuals don't even want to play unless it's a social obligation.
>>750200383>it's not even culture>it's buying things (foreshadowing), spackling over memes and in-jokes repeatedly and it's getting mad on the internetOkay remove gamer culture>E-YO WHY YOU DON'T BUY OUR GAMES "GAMER"?
>>750200514Apparently, they not!
>>750201145And angry women just kill their kids
in the same way Nvidia figures it doesn't need home PC market any more because governments are printing endless money to buy up Nvidia chips, the game industry figured it didn't need the GAMER market any more because governments were printing endless money to spam out idpol propaganda.it all works well and dandy until the government stops footing the bill and suddenly you're up shit creek.
>>750200661 >>750201502 >>750202352 >>750209768>falling 4 this b8i couldnt imagine
So an elitist faggot from posh upper-middle class closed gate community out of touch artschool loser wrote an article after his father got him a job how gamers' time is over and that his faggy bubble is the norm when 99% gamers he was shit talking about was the fucking world still in a belief that the "gamer" is 1:1 of 80's movie nerdy kid because his rich faggot ass never in his life was around actual people below his societal class. 12 years later and his likes still haven't learned a shit because listening to the poor is below to them.
And it says a lot that these blue blooded mongrel rather kill themselves than engage with the proletariat. While ironically believing they are saving them from the evil capitalist class because of course the bourgeoise knows the best what the shitty peasant needs while working for the capitalist class shilling for their companies and shitting on the plebeians.
