My take on this, as a hobbyist game devoloper: The Godot engine is open source, free, and created by group contribution, not a single team. EVEN IF the leadership considers themselves woke, and their community manager THINKS they're woke... the game engine itself, is NOT woke. The game engine cannot force me to add woke elements to my game design. The game engine cannot change my story. The game engine cannot change my character art. The game engine cannot force me to have a character creation system that adds woke elements. The game engine is a TOOL. And at this time, I don't think I even need to use the Godot splash screen, so nobody will know I used the Godot engine to create my games in the first place, even if they added woke elements to their logo... So, claiming to be a woke engine for social credit points is a pure virtue signal that means NOTHING.
This is the way of thinking in this situation. This drama is from community management side, not the engine itself but some people seems have a hard time to distinguish it.
@@scarm_rune I could not identify a single woke-inspired tool feature that was prioritized OVER bugs... the level of incompetence that may be evident by the existence of long-standing bugs could be attributed to a lack of programming skill in the team, but that would have been present from the start, and isn't the fault of hiring on woke devs at the expense of a merit-based system... and as Godot isn't really a "company" to begin with, it's not running like a business anyway, where such things would happen. (the community, consisting of non-woke members, could step up and contribute bug fixes as well...) I just don't see this as a "woke" vs "non-woke" issue... and to be clear, I do not support woke ideology.
youre right. one of the lead devs is a furry that's into the forbidden stuff. you don't see any traces of that in the engine so i thick were good for now
Yeah. My reaction exactly. Fortunately for me I don't hang out in their community so the devs inane opinions on DEI have very little impact on me and since all of the other game engines out there are also "contaminated" it's probably not going to impact resource management that much yet.
You're kidding right? This was the one engine i had my eyes on... smh, i never thought this would reach as low as game engines. I've wanted to make a custom engine for a while but planned on using at least godot. I'll just stick to learning custom engine dev then.
After what happened with Unity, I know many indie developers were switching their game to run on Godot. Not sure they will switch again, seeing as how Godot it is open.
It's open-source so it could be forked by a single user or a group of users who maintain it independently. In this case removing the woke ideology is easy; to use an analogy it would require a mere pruning of the branches as opposed to burning the whole tree down.
2:45 But Vee, I would have thought the Godot developers would be incredibly happy seeing developers TRANSITION between game engines. You know the problem with woke platforms? They see NotC's everywhere and you trying to use that platform will be subjected to purity tests as you try to find solutions to technical problems while the platform owners look through your social media to root out wrong think.
"It's not about the money. It's about sending a message." They literally don't care about it. They are wielding all these companies and products as vehicles for propaganda.
The "message" (propaganda) + the modern audience (or lack thereof) is more important, obv. But hey, if they wanna self report, cool. That means, instead of potentially wasting money on tainted products, we can go back through our steam library that we have barely touched in 10 years... oh wait
Just a reminder that Godot is under MIT which means they can easily make new versions under licenses you don't like. If they decide to limit who has access to it and censor your games in the future they can, godot 5 could easily be closed source or ban developers who don't abide by their ideology. Blender is under the GPL instead of the MIT for this exact reason, and while godot shouldn't be under the GPL it should also not be MIT, for it to be future proof while still allowing closed source games to be released with it it should be something like the LGPL.
@@scarm_rune wtf man. Why would you wish something so bad to the one free engine which can make based games? Because a woke community manager hijacked the efforts of programmers? The only politics lead devs care about is hardcore opensource, and I doubt they would ever make a restricting license. They only keep going so succesfully because of good will.
The schizophrenia induced by the w0ke movement should be really studied. One individual with m3ntal illness induces other people to have m3ntal illnesses, simply amazing.
Looks like the creator of Godot dosen't like politics and prefers staying out of it.People who got wrongfully blocked are reaching out to him so the ones who run the twitter page might get in trouble
They have been for a while. If you want to make your own game you are better off learning a bit of programming. It may be harder when you start but in the long run you will have more freedom.
Making your own engine isn't really a feasible option these days, as you would have to put in resources to learn all of the physics involved, the way textures interact with 3d models, the way light propagates in/on/off different surfaces, even just the simple effect of how to accurately project a 3d space onto a 2d screen, and then to know all of the efficient algorithms to make all of this executable in viable time frame. Even if you ignore 3d games and stick with just 2d, there is a lot involved in how animations are processed, how to depict what is shown on what pixel etc. This is why even something like Flash is an engine that handles difficult low tier stuff. Modern game design is standing on the shoulders of 40 years of development.
"All right fellas, you know the drill. We've become successful after everyone started using our engine after Unity's monumental fuckup a year or two ago, so naturally it's our responsibility to do everything in our power to ruin that."
-Unity did the whole runtime fee fiasco -Unreal Engine mandates woke-speak in its documentation (using 'blacklist' is racist type of bs) -Godot is now "Wokot" I don't mean to doom and gloom but the landscape of game development is looking so bleak right now its depressing
Well crap, I told a friend of mine about that who was interested in making games. To be fair, this just sounds like a dumbarse in charge of their twitter nuking themselves. But blocking people pointing out important things is a really bad idea.
this is why we can't have nice things seems like making your own game engine (and all the pain it takes) is the way to go now at least in the open source world, one can always git clone and do it yourself
This is why I never trust idealists: Become fully (emotionally and what not) invested in an ideal and your sense for everything else becomes muddled and biased towards said ideal....well that or your a con artist milking upon hapless mindless sheeple that are just as invested (conned) to an ideal Its usually the latter
Godot is a free and Open source game engine so peeps should not really worry about that and can still use the game engine. Heck if you wanted to you can even Fork it (which most probably wont due to to how much time that would take). Also Godot has been pretty transparent in what they update on their website and the same thing about their priorities it's the same way with Blender where you wont get all you want updated since in projects like that you do need people to maintain it. But something is wrong tho that community manager is not doing Godot any favor. Also here's some context Apparently the initial tweet was made cause someone in a thread said this "It makes sense doesn't it? Woke studios always use pre built engines to make games because they can't build their own engines."
The engine is 'okay' in its current state and free with no catches, I'm sure a range of people will continue to use it. But its core community is absolutely on-board with identity politics, and I have to wonder if it's alienating some would-be contributors from making the engine even better. Godot is not a product, though, so critiquing it as though it's a paid product comes across as entitled. You fix the issues you have with godot by contributing the fixes yourself, or donating and requesting someone headhunts them. Course there's also layers to it, some won't consider donating as an option if there's a risk of their money being spent on activism instead of the engine. And blocking any game developer on the official socials is an odd look regardless.
as far as their community goes shilling identity politics may not be the worst idea, as policing potential contributors and blocking them is the bigger problem
funfact as somone in the trenches of gamedev autodesk maya broke old software because they changed functions inside thier api that contained the strings "master" and "slave" for woke reasons.
This is not an issue, the people responsible for the project are replaceable. This is on the MIT license: You can distribute unmodified and changed versions of Godot Engine, even commercially and under a different license (including proprietary) Someone with will and a brain can just take the entire code and redistribute it. (including you reading this)
To be fair, I do keep saying people (mostly major companies that can afford to invest the effort) need to stop using pre-built engines and do their own work. But if I decide to be a filthy hypocrite and make something in an engine to 'play around with it and well I already made it so might as well release it', good to know I've got one more engine to avoid.
I gotta give props to the Godot community manager. He made a post where people can neatly organize their woke garbage games into a list so people can more easily know what to boycott.
Man, Godot's Discord has been rainbow colored for over 2 years now, since the meme started that "oh it's July 1st, 0.00, gotta turn the gay off on twitter". They've been full of all kinds of ... creatures... forever. It's an open source project, so it automatically attracts many kinds of people, including the shouting ones.
I don't know if its legally possible or not, but just don't give credit to the engine in the games. Don't show any sign of its involvement. Of course, people can easily find out but still its good damage control and at the same time a good way to stick it to the management of the game engine. Also, get a fork going.
The fact that engine refused to implement native C/C++ support in favor of it own, completely worthless language that is useless everywhere else, already showed me how untrustworthy they are
@@ali32bit42 Why do I need to use the Goddamned extension when C/CPP should have been supported by default, due to how popular it is? Why in the name of hell should I write code in VScode/VS studio as well as using the Goddot GUI? Why is Goddot stupid?
The fact they blocked someone for kindly asking about Bitmap font support is beyond evil. The person didn't even say anything bad they just asked them to focus on something that's more important for the engine than identity politics.
This makes me feel like I made the right call not to hop on the hype train and instead to stick with Unity. There are things that I like about GODOT as an engine, but it felt undercooked for me. And with this...I would rather work with a greedy corporation than with an open-source project trying to tell me what games I am or am not allowed to make.
September 2024 is the date month Unity made a comeback, first by reverting completely the retardation of the run-time fee, and second by letting their biggest rival (to whom they lost most developers to) shoot itself in the leg just when all the eyes are set on them to out-do Unity. I don't think many people will ditch Godot over it but oh boy they opened the flood gates for devs to question their loyalty to the engine and rather they should keep using it over a dozen other free+SC/free/freemium/premium alternatives.
Good thing about Godot is its an open source engine aka they can be ask woke as theu want but they still can't stop ppl from making whatever game they want.
I learnt Godot before and I want to learn more coding on it. Really sad that they went woke. Cocos Creator 3D and Defold, you are my only hope for sane game engine creators.
I want to see a "Basedot Engine" or some other cringe name term being as politically incorrect on twitter while pushing good updates and everyone switching to it
Godot is (currently) the least bad of well known game engines from a business standpoint. The alternatives are Unity (HAH!), Unreal (owned by Tencent and went woke years ago), and making your own. This isn't going to make me stop using Godot, but I'm definitely not going to be donating any money going forward.
Wokers wokenizing the engine instead of adding font import support is the same energy as Hugo Boss types hanging flags and putting bronze busts into every hallway they traverse instead of worrying about industrial production.
Out of touch suits want "what the kids are into" to make more money, confusing it it for "forward thinking," not realizing that they simply don't get "what the kids are into." How "out of touch" are these suits? Many don't even know how to open a cardboard box.
@@enforcerridley158also there's a lot of people that wanna pave a way into our kids pants. The green party of Germany for example has been caught twice having long term plans to legalize pdf-filea. Once in the 70s and then again in 2014
This is awkward, but I do agree with some of the people here that Godot itself can't be forced to go woke. If the leadership do find some workaround to push their agenda, a management shakeup would be needed.
It's a shame really. Programming/coding is always about understanding computer logics. Arts come after for user interface. Godot is a bridge between hard coding and easier graphics programming; just like visual basic or visual c++ were. A game can be political or not depends on the dev. Clear cut programming logics just can't get along with ambiguous D.I.E woke concept.
Suddenly, that one short (and the channel behind it) that has a Godot hate fetish doesn't sound like bait anymore. Eh, does it matter? -(Famous last words.)-
Gee I seriously hope this non-talk about issues that aren't related with the engine at all doesn't stall development of the engine like it did with Nix OS... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️

Godot: Oh look I'm somehow soaked in gasoline along with the rest of the gaming industry. I've been waiting for a good time to strike this match.
Just a reminder that Godot is under MIT which means they can easily make new versions under licenses you don't like.
If they decide to limit who has access to it and censor your games in the future they can, godot 5 could easily be closed source or ban developers who don't abide by their ideology.
Blender is under the GPL instead of the MIT for this exact reason, and while godot shouldn't be under the GPL it should also not be MIT, for it to be future proof while still allowing closed source games to be released with it it should be something like the LGPL.
i actually hope godot 5 becomes proprietary so the people leave it
@@scarm_rune wtf man. Why would you wish something so bad to the one free engine which can make based games? Because a woke community manager hijacked the efforts of programmers?
The only politics lead devs care about is hardcore opensource, and I doubt they would ever make a restricting license. They only keep going so succesfully because of good will.
Maybe the answer isn’t to switch engines, but to make good games on Godot that are incredibly based and encourage traditional/classic themes?
Based
lord adolf 2 the sleepening
Yes
Or do that on a better engine
This would finance and advertise their gay ass engine. Just make your custom engine.

Just sit down and wait, until the inevitable "I told you so" moment arrives.
The schizophrenia induced by the w0ke movement should be really studied. One individual with m3ntal illness induces other people to have m3ntal illnesses, simply amazing.
Looks like the creator of Godot dosen't like politics and prefers staying out of it.People who got wrongfully blocked are reaching out to him so the ones who run the twitter page might get in trouble
Wait, Godot is FOSS? Fork that shit.
At least you open source so we can make are own.
the most pathetic thing is that the necromorph running that account spent hours hiding all the replies mocking them
They have been for a while.
If you want to make your own game you are better off learning a bit of programming.
It may be harder when you start but in the long run you will have more freedom.
Making your own engine isn't really a feasible option these days, as you would have to put in resources to learn all of the physics involved, the way textures interact with 3d models, the way light propagates in/on/off different surfaces, even just the simple effect of how to accurately project a 3d space onto a 2d screen, and then to know all of the efficient algorithms to make all of this executable in viable time frame. Even if you ignore 3d games and stick with just 2d, there is a lot involved in how animations are processed, how to depict what is shown on what pixel etc. This is why even something like Flash is an engine that handles difficult low tier stuff. Modern game design is standing on the shoulders of 40 years of development.
@@Dreamhaxor there are libraries for those.
@@progste There is little difference between collecting those libraries and using an engine.
"All right fellas, you know the drill. We've become successful after everyone started using our engine after Unity's monumental fuckup a year or two ago, so naturally it's our responsibility to do everything in our power to ruin that."
The irony is Unity came back on that fuckup, so they might actually bounce back now
7:05 You are 100% spot on. They bleat about Diversity from sun up until sun down yet my division could hardly be called diverse, not by a long shot.
-Unity did the whole runtime fee fiasco
-Unreal Engine mandates woke-speak in its documentation (using 'blacklist' is racist type of bs)
-Godot is now "Wokot"
I don't mean to doom and gloom but the landscape of game development is looking so bleak right now its depressing
Well crap, I told a friend of mine about that who was interested in making games.
To be fair, this just sounds like a dumbarse in charge of their twitter nuking themselves.
But blocking people pointing out important things is a really bad idea.
Look up the group photo for Ghost of Yotei's developers.
No further words needed.
Yeah that game is gonna fucking suck lol

Elite are always dreaming of taming the world like dogs so that nobody can question there absolute power and privilege.
You were too tolerant.
You did not hold the gate.
You still to refuse to be raycist.
You demonized and not paid attention to those warning you.
etc.
this is why we can't have nice things
seems like making your own game engine (and all the pain it takes) is the way to go now
at least in the open source world, one can always git clone and do it yourself
Godot is open source so they cant really do anything to enforce it though which is good
never understood why you even need a "community manager". a "managed community" sounds awfully inorganic and authoritarian
This is why I never trust idealists: Become fully (emotionally and what not) invested in an ideal and your sense for everything else becomes muddled and biased towards said ideal....well that or your a con artist milking upon hapless mindless sheeple that are just as invested (conned) to an ideal
Its usually the latter
Looks like separating the art from the artist is going out the window.
Remember when people swore they would ditch the Unity Engine and switch to Godot?
... Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Didn't unity reverse their decision?
Godot is a free and Open source game engine so peeps should not really worry about that and can still use the game engine. Heck if you wanted to you can even Fork it (which most probably wont due to to how much time that would take). Also Godot has been pretty transparent in what they update on their website and the same thing about their priorities it's the same way with Blender where you wont get all you want updated since in projects like that you do need people to maintain it. But something is wrong tho that community manager is not doing Godot any favor. Also here's some context Apparently the initial tweet was made cause someone in a thread said this "It makes sense doesn't it? Woke studios always use pre built engines to make games because they can't build their own engines."
Isn’t godot an open source engine? If that’s the case then ppl will use the older version.
we can just fork it and continue development from where it is now, it's an MIT license.
Its just the community manager being gay and throwing a tantrum over hormone blocker price increases, the game engine is amazing though
@@sean7221 it’s always the little thing.
@@sean7221 so now they hate paid mods huh
The engine is 'okay' in its current state and free with no catches, I'm sure a range of people will continue to use it. But its core community is absolutely on-board with identity politics, and I have to wonder if it's alienating some would-be contributors from making the engine even better.
Godot is not a product, though, so critiquing it as though it's a paid product comes across as entitled. You fix the issues you have with godot by contributing the fixes yourself, or donating and requesting someone headhunts them.
Course there's also layers to it, some won't consider donating as an option if there's a risk of their money being spent on activism instead of the engine. And blocking any game developer on the official socials is an odd look regardless.
as far as their community goes shilling identity politics may not be the worst idea, as policing potential contributors and blocking them is the bigger problem
funfact as somone in the trenches of gamedev autodesk maya broke old software because they changed functions inside thier api that contained the strings "master" and "slave" for woke reasons.
This is not an issue, the people responsible for the project are replaceable.
This is on the MIT license:
You can distribute unmodified and changed versions of Godot Engine, even commercially and under a different license (including proprietary)
Someone with will and a brain can just take the entire code and redistribute it. (including you reading this)
To be fair, I do keep saying people (mostly major companies that can afford to invest the effort) need to stop using pre-built engines and do their own work. But if I decide to be a filthy hypocrite and make something in an engine to 'play around with it and well I already made it so might as well release it', good to know I've got one more engine to avoid.
I expect nothing less of the engine that ported sonic colors to the switch.
No Police - is an idea until these idiots need the police to protect them in their safe gated communities.
I gotta give props to the Godot community manager. He made a post where people can neatly organize their woke garbage games into a list so people can more easily know what to boycott.
Imagine a world...where a company's social media...only posted about their products.
Man, Godot's Discord has been rainbow colored for over 2 years now, since the meme started that "oh it's July 1st, 0.00, gotta turn the gay off on twitter". They've been full of all kinds of ... creatures... forever. It's an open source project, so it automatically attracts many kinds of people, including the shouting ones.
I don't know if its legally possible or not, but just don't give credit to the engine in the games. Don't show any sign of its involvement. Of course, people can easily find out but still its good damage control and at the same time a good way to stick it to the management of the game engine. Also, get a fork going.
The fact that engine refused to implement native C/C++ support in favor of it own, completely worthless language that is useless everywhere else, already showed me how untrustworthy they are
They added c# instead
cuz Microsoft was directly funding that
c++ is supported trough GDextension . you just need to do some setup
Gdscript is basically python.
@@ali32bit42 Why do I need to use the Goddamned extension when C/CPP should have been supported by default, due to how popular it is? Why in the name of hell should I write code in VScode/VS studio as well as using the Goddot GUI? Why is Goddot stupid?
Glad I never donated and never will. But the engine is fine as is for the games I want to make, so I'll stick with it.
The fact they blocked someone for kindly asking about Bitmap font support is beyond evil. The person didn't even say anything bad they just asked them to focus on something that's more important for the engine than identity politics.
Glad I took my X8 demake n left
Goddammit, I was planning on learning how to make a game on it.
This doesn't stop you tho
This makes me feel like I made the right call not to hop on the hype train and instead to stick with Unity. There are things that I like about GODOT as an engine, but it felt undercooked for me. And with this...I would rather work with a greedy corporation than with an open-source project trying to tell me what games I am or am not allowed to make.
September 2024 is the date month Unity made a comeback, first by reverting completely the retardation of the run-time fee, and second by letting their biggest rival (to whom they lost most developers to) shoot itself in the leg just when all the eyes are set on them to out-do Unity.
I don't think many people will ditch Godot over it but oh boy they opened the flood gates for devs to question their loyalty to the engine and rather they should keep using it over a dozen other free+SC/free/freemium/premium alternatives.
"Everything woke turns into shit" - former and future US president
Good thing about Godot is its an open source engine aka they can be ask woke as theu want but they still can't stop ppl from making whatever game they want.
"if a game is made, you must buy it"
yep, that's what the government is for. and police lol
I learnt Godot before and I want to learn more coding on it. Really sad that they went woke.
Cocos Creator 3D and Defold, you are my only hope for sane game engine creators.
the level of autism needed to make an engine like that makes them prone to be necromorphs, you can't escape it
Time to give Cave engine a shot or learn to code and make my own.
The Godot based fork is imminent.
One of many reasons to no use Godot
Welp, time to write our own game engine.
Godot is MIT Licence open source. Just make a branch
I want to see a "Basedot Engine" or some other cringe name term being as politically incorrect on twitter while pushing good updates and everyone switching to it
Godot is (currently) the least bad of well known game engines from a business standpoint. The alternatives are Unity (HAH!), Unreal (owned by Tencent and went woke years ago), and making your own.
This isn't going to make me stop using Godot, but I'm definitely not going to be donating any money going forward.
Good morning 🌄
Wokers wokenizing the engine instead of adding font import support is the same energy as Hugo Boss types hanging flags and putting bronze busts into every hallway they traverse instead of worrying about industrial production.
I don't like Godot anyways. Felt super clunky/unintuitive compared to my short time with Unity.
I will never understand the obsesion that companies have with self-sabotaging

Out of touch suits want "what the kids are into" to make more money, confusing it it for "forward thinking," not realizing that they simply don't get "what the kids are into."

Open-source and Woke do not mix well together. We will se which one gets thrown in the garbage bin first
Name a gayer combination than gamedev and open source
This is awkward, but I do agree with some of the people here that Godot itself can't be forced to go woke. If the leadership do find some workaround to push their agenda, a management shakeup would be needed.
yay -_- , welp I guess Godot goes in the trashbin now.
Never heard of this Engine before must be for extremely indie games either way just let it die like all Woke garbage.
It's a shame really. Programming/coding is always about understanding computer logics. Arts come after for user interface.
Godot is a bridge between hard coding and easier graphics programming; just like visual basic or visual c++ were.
A game can be political or not depends on the dev.
Clear cut programming logics just can't get along with ambiguous D.I.E woke concept.
At least Ghost of Yotei devs don't need to uglify the main character.
Sh it
At this point, I'm so glad I never pushed myself to learn game development.
I think they are glad too. That's how they took control of every entertainment industry.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
yeah......sure, ask unity about how people don't turn their backs on engines......
i’ve never heard of this engine, do any prominent games actually use it?
No
No
It got traction as a Unity alternative for 2D games, after the Unity pricing fiasco
it's "new" but aside from people prototyping on it I don't think anyone has released anything major anywhere
It's good though
I only recognize her from Dropout, where I never really noticed anything about her political things.
Feel pretty “meh” about this whole thing.
Suddenly, that one short (and the channel behind it) that has a Godot hate fetish doesn't sound like bait anymore.
Eh, does it matter? -(Famous last words.)-
Godot has always been a trash buggy product. Turns out you can judge a game engine by its placeholder logo
Gee I seriously hope this non-talk about issues that aren't related with the engine at all doesn't stall development of the engine like it did with Nix OS...
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Don't bother developing games, all engines are destroyed by wokeness
