2 picks for me: Stardew Valley, most boring shit ever, I don’t see the appeal, seriously how the hell did that thing sold 20 million copies?
And Witcher 3, I own that game since 2019 and I regret buying it, funny thing is that I’ve finished Dragon Age 1 and 2, which are kinda same genre but I actually enjoyed those games. I guess the old BioWare sauce carried those games unlike Witcher where there’s nothing to enjoy in its massive pointless world.
Nah, race isn’t implied in any of that. Ghouls were originally portrayed sympathetically, for the most part, at least until they turned zombie-like. Do you think zombies imply racism?
As for tribals; surprise! Humans arrange ourselves into small groups, often referred to as tribes, no matter what our shade of skin, nation or origin, or even our level of technology.
Lol! I guess you haven’t realized why the majority of protagonists in the “zombie apocalypse” genre are always paragons of middle-class WASP-ness?
Sure, Clyde… I guess the reservations exist purely because their inhabitants like the view, correct?
The protagonist of Fallout 2 is literally a tribal that goes to save his tribe and in the end kills the president of USA.
Sorry buddy, these are not the stereotypes you think they are.
Lots of different movies feature lots of white people. Zombie movies often feature minorities. Frankly, zombie movies have much more to say about modern life than other genres. If they focus on white people more, it’s typically to point out how we’re pretty fucked up right now without the zombies. It’s not racist to comment on race. But you have by no means established that Fallout made ghouls as racist stereotypes.
Tribes have always existed, in every people group. We have them now, everywhere. We grow up in them. We build them on our own. Only loners live outside them, and they aren’t healthy. Just because diverse people revert to older tech after an apocalypse and get referred to as “tribals” does not make it racist. Even if it was, it’s the fuckin apocalypse! I’m woke as fuck, but some people might possibly become a little shittier at the end of the world. They could be calling each other much worse things. Regardless, you have not established any connection to America’s reservations whatsoever. Nor frankly, have you demonstrated that you speak for Native Americans.
Only if you see the world through the same white supremacist lens that is so prevalent in (so-called) “prepper” communities.
You mean it has nothing to do with the (supposed) “threat” posed to white middle-class Americans by all these “othered” peoples? I wonder what would happen if we were to replace the word “immigrant” with the word “zombie” in US main-stream media - would it make it any different or would the propaganda work pretty much the same? You need me to remind you how US authorities treat marginalized people during natural disasters?
I don’t have to… the games pretty much does that all by itself. The relationship between humans and these “ghouls” in the games is a perfect representation of the “race relations” lens through which white liberals view the subject of white supremacism - which is, not concidentally, the furthest liberalism will allow discourse on white supremacism to go.
Lol! So what’s the name of yours, then? Where’s your “tribe,” Clyde?
You were aware that it’s literally peak white supremacism to simply assume that everybody living in un-colonized spaces exist in (so-called) “tribes,” right?
No go, Clyde - you don’t get to deflect from white supremacism by using Native American folk as camouflage.
Wow. Just think. You typed all that for nothing. What a waste of your time.
Soooo… no word on that (alleged) “tribe” of yours, huh?
No surprises there.
Yawn.
You still talking?
Ahem - you were saying something bout your (alleged) "tribe?
Nope, I wasn’t. That was all in your silly little head.
Cmon, reply again. Do it. Do it. Do iiiiit.
