Avowed character creation has pronouns - Elon Musk disapproves, Obsidian art director disapproves of his disapproval

[Zboj Lamignat]

How did we even come to devs openly saying "I want to shit on my potential customers so badly"

I'm always amazed by their inability to stop posting.

Believe what you must but for goddess' sake have enough professional insight to know that publicly posting something polarising could damage the brand and attract further attention from e-thots like Kern or Musk.

Trying to sneakily shift the attention from how fucking horrid the game looks to "look, current polarizing issue, discuss!" can be considered a p. 4d chess move... Maybe...

Nah, probably not.

Weird.. there's no source for this other than Fandompulse and it even includes a fake tweet from Elon..

If you don't believe what is being posted, just do a little research. Check out Matt Hansen twitter / bluesky. Go to Elons twitter.

Funnily, I bet there would be a lot of the typical "the game isn't really woke, you're just imagining things chud" from the usual suspects near release, but the director just had to boast that it is and ruin the strategy.

You really think Infi and Roguey would stop trying?

They will still do that. It happens every time, no matter how vocal the devs are about it. There were a couple of examples of it with Veilguard, over in its thread. Some people will always try to claim that it's all in your head, just to be subversive.

was gonna post another video about this but there's no new material, it's just the guy going over the same bluesky tweets.

anyway... avowed's fucked lmao

Oh ok. Thanks for letting me know.

What worries me more is that the developer managed to get two typos in his Twitter post without anybody noticing .

Ohh yeah. I remember this guy. He deleted his tweet lamenting about to many white dudes in the industry and how he wants to live in the woods. I guess he hasn't replaced his own job with a black dude yet.

Reminder to Black artists out there who are looking for portfolio reviews or job advice: my DMs are open, and you will always have my priority. We got too many crusty white dudes in this field, please let me help you replace me one day - I want to go back to living in the woods.

 

[Late Bloomer]

11:08 timestamp for him wanting to be replaced by a black guy so he can go live in the woods.

Dollarhyde look fucking awful. Like dude wtf.

 

[Tyranicon]

It's official, this is the new Veilguard.

Live in SoCal bubble.
Everyone around you agrees with your politics.
Assume the entire world agrees with your politics.
Assume all the "good guys" from history would've agreed with your politics (lol).
The chuds must be a tiny insignificant number of people. Who cares if they're mad?
WTF why did my game bomb?

They're begging you to not give them money. It's never been this easy.

 

[Brickfrog]

Seems like games get a bit gayer every year. The ones that are fun sell well (BG3), and the ones that aren't fun sell poorly (DA4).

So my bet is that if the game is fun it'll sell fine. Seems unclear if that's the case from the footage I've seen.

 

[Artyoan]

Okay, my expectations went back down a few notches.

 

[Fenix]

This looks like clown train on the rails.

 

[jackofshadows]

Wowser, someone is really defensive about this game. It feels as I'm starting to wake up or something.

 

[Late Bloomer]

Might as well just merge it into the gamergate containement thread so the shame of differing opinions can be quarantined and hidden from view from all but the most dedicated chuds.

Good thread split. Talking about Avowed had no place in the Avowed discussion. We needed even more threads for this trash fire.

I have not watched any of the videos Infinitron is linking. I would bet real money that they are all avoiding the woke nonsense because the point is to sell this game in the wake of Failguard. "You have to buy the game to find out how much woke is in the game."

Looks like I called it (wasn't difficult). They really didn't want people to know it's a wokefest before buying it.

 

[Sigourn]

I brought it up in the other thread but it's worth repeating, I suppose.

The game will have pronouns, which of course is an excellent sign that it'll be infested with other subversive nonsense.

Let's make some predictions. Other than the pronouns in character creation, do you think this game will be degenerate or woke in a similar way to Baldur's Gate 3 (bear fucking etc) or Dragon Age Veilguard (pulling a barve cringe scenes)? Do you think we're going to be watching uncut gameplay footage of Avowed in two months and going "Man, there's gay shit everywhere, wtf"?

Infinitron HAS to be put under control. Jewish Pharaoh of Codexia is mad butthurt, evil and above all: AUTISTIC

He draggs entire website down. Why, oh why, OH WHY are people putting up with him and his obvious as day agenda and machinations. Even Chris Avellone directly called him out in hillarious fashion, saying how his disgusting and obvious shilling is part of his "charm". Bored Israeli Army tech engineer with too much free time, given this part of cultural fief to keep goyim cattle in check

Are you sincerely retarded or is that your play-pretend as part of your shillling campaign, which is case with Roguey? I honestly can't tell any more

If 4+ years ago we had WOKE AS FUCK Outer Worlds, what THE FUCK do you unthinking Jew think that Awoved will be like after 4+ years of metastazing madness these "people" that call themselves game devs and identify as Obsidian have gone through?????????????????????????? Less shitty and woke then Outer Worlds or more? Correct answer: OBVIOUSLY MOAR
