Proof that the entire game subculture has not been suckered by culture war grifters.

That’s FightinCowboy and he absolutely does not have time for people’s bullshit. One of the good ones for sure. He makes excellent Soulsborne content and walkthroughs as well.

This is the shit be in all gaming circles. Dude is on POINT 🔥

“If you’re upset that there’s a black guy in a video game, fuck off. We’re not doing that shit.” Love this.

That's the mindset I need to adopt with discriminatory assholes

We need more of this everywhere, but especially in all the nerdy tech spaces.

As an aside, fückwïts would be foolish to mess with Rincewind....the Luggage is beyond a force to be reckoned with.

When possible, emphasize the STFU directive with a 'tap' from a D-handled scoop shovel to the transphobe's face. 🫡

a *black character. was typing too fast

i'd rather have a chat of 20 that would genuinely want to discus the game than thousands who were only there to bitch about woke dei nonsense

This

Word

I don't know who this dude is but I'd buy him a pint.

Is the game good or just more Ubislop?

You want to debate tax policy? Let's do it. Geopolitics? Bring it. The size of the social welfare state? Fine I'm game. You want to debate whether certain groups are smarter or more criminal? Whether trans ppl should exist? Whether women should control their bodies? Your opinion is worthless, STFU.

If you play any of the SoulsBourne games he’s the gold standard for walkthroughs

fuck dem racists

“That’s called mothafuckin bars nigga. You don’t know nothin about that!”

100% Someone wants to debate or chat with me on favorite pizza toppings or a right way to make a grilled cheese, we'll have a chin wag. Human/civil/reproductive/etc rights aren't up for debate. The act of questioning them are an admission of bad faith & bigotry. Earns a block/report on spot.

You can do it irl too. Best part of that is you can shut them up.

I support this message.

Yup.

I remember last year there were something like 5 or 6 controversies within the space of two months. Hades, Stellar Blade, Assassins Creed...more that I don't remember because of how inconsequential they are. And so often the opinions on display show a lack of knowledge of what they're whining about

That was so incredibly cleansing. I mean, ‘nuff said.🤷🏽‍♀️ That’s called “reading a bitch.”

Which circle of hell is "I am an anonymous segregationist online"?

Yup. Not a big gamer or stream follower but this is the exact energy that should be brought to every conversation with a MAGA racist.

All those tech bros wanted the only female characters in games to be scantily clad buxom broads who were only there for decoration. When the rare female game dev suggested that women might want more realistic female avatars the response was always, "We don't women to play our game."

This unironically

That would be a good response to MAGAts. Lol.

💯

These tragic little humans think the games are created just for them. Can’t they have just one thing that’s all theirs??

Thanks! Yep I found it. 😁

anyone whose enjoyment of e.g. the Slime Rancher games is dampened by the protagonist being a brown girl is just an incurable little weenie fr

LMAO! This is the energy I have for this and I wish more of our "leaders" had. I know it wouldn't work on Trump specifically but so many reactionaries are paper tigers and this really is enough to make most of them crumple.

Agreed. Thanks for sharing this.

I almost never touch my epic games library, but this doesn’t stop the rage when I’ve already received the free game of the week before.

Hey; I could probably do that just on the ones I've already played, at the rate I'm actually playing them these days. (But four games from Paradox is enough to completely wreck that metric, anyway...)

It's not about PLAYING games about people who are not exactly like them. It's about those games EXISTING, or having a right to exist. Or rather, about those "other" people having a right to exist.

I am personally disappointed by the lack of playable sea otter characters in video games.

Genuinely needed this to happen since gamergate. Somebody who's awesome and doesn't give a shit about worthless whiny sacks of shit

and like, real talk, why WOULDNT a lot of straight guys want to play a fem character in a 3rd person video game, like they already want to oogle the NPCs half the time, now they have the perfect excuse to do that.

Guessing it never prevented some of them from playing Tomb Raider, though.

Let's be real, those white male videogames protagonists (well, most of them) don't look like our average little whiny unkept racist either. So they already have that experience.

I make monster men in video games because I find forgetting what I did in cutscenes where the character takes their helmet off hilarious. These guys wouldn’t have survived dark souls character showcases back in the day

I already go through life looking like me. Let me sample the other options.

Man, I have fun making and playing characters that don't look like me. That's a fuckin' skill issue.

Power fantasy. If I have the power of a character creator, I will always either make a black woman because never enough black (in games) being the hero, or myself, because I can't smack my enemies with a giant sword in real life.

I’ve already blocked him and sounds like that was a good decision

Not just Souls help, he also does in-depth MonHun weapon guides. Dude out here doing the Good Work.

Not a one off either. He will consistently shut down a stream for a bit when some fucking bigot shows up in stream to cause trouble. One of like 2 streamers I watch consistently for the content as much as being a real human instead of a brand or e/e

People thinking like this missing out on the absolute joy of female protagonists/costumizable female characters, plataformers with furry animals and watch dogs 2, what a fucking sad way to live man

this burn is so bad i can detect it from a fucking satellite in space

As a woman gamer, it felt so good when there finally were female chars that weren't there only for their looks. Besides, studies showed that many men choose to play as female deliberately and when they do they take better care of their char.

dont remind me about my backlog....... 💔

Awesome!! I’ve also got that one but haven’t gotten around to it but think I might do an AC marathon before I jump into shadows!

I chose her path too! Granted I haven’t gotten as deep in that one but I’m hoping to after my HZD playthrough!

These are the kinds of gamers I know and play with. I don't associate with or give views to bigot gamers. The second I find out someone has gross views I'm out.

It needs to be “your opinion is moronic.” Being called worthless validates their stupid woe is me crap.

I love this!!!!!!!!

This man is my hero

It reminds me of when people say a new version of a movie is ruining their favorite childhood movie. No, it’s not. The old movies still exist. Just don’t watch the new ones. Racists have the privilege of living in a world where hating a game is so important to them.
