      Yeah this logic doesn't really work for everything. By this logic, ever person who makes slasher films or horror movies should be locked up for being psychopaths for creating the things they do. When usually they are actually rather chill people IRL. EDIT: Or hell! Look at Ruroni Kenshin's author having actual CP, not loli or shota stuff ACTUAL real life CP. What about his work would suggest he would be into that?
      It's just with Cage... Like it wasn't just a little bit. Like just look at how he handled the "Detroit: Become Human isn't about civil rights and slavery" hard cut to androids standing in the back of the bus or then you have another show of it with Ellen Page (before she became a he and Elliot Page) fucking sued him for the leaks of those nude models of her and like Pat said about the interview. Like you don't need to say its the work when the character of the man was known. Not helped by the fact that studio management also had things changed so the average person who doesn't look in-depth can't tell what's the dudes work or the studio stuff. Hell, most people probably don't even know who this guy actually is cause most people don't know the name of the people who create the thing they watch or read. Then like what Pat ALSO said again, look how many times he got away with this and Sony just hiring him to keep making games and people buying it.
      To quote Pat from another video: "Why Madden 70 dollar?" Most people are just not in-depth with this stuff.

      David Cage isn't making anything because it's cheaper, it's because that's where he goes.
      Also, there's a degree of excess even in genres that leave the creator's mark, so while it's foolish to psychoanalysis off the genre of work, you can definitely see authorial vision and focus within a work.

    Think you guys misinterpreted Kojima's comments a bit. When he talked about the pandemic and 9/11, he was specifically referring to them as paradigm shifts in the global zeitgeist, leading to massive changes in how people think and act - which in turn means he has to reevaluate how he makes games, or what he wants to say in them. It's no more a sign of a god complex than when Yoko Taro said 9/11 made him want to write about how subjectivity can cause anyone to believe themselves righteous, which led to Nier.

      Flash forward to now. Given what they did with Battlefield 5 (and the state of game devs and game journalism in general) I wouldn't put it past them to be trying to make a "point" by pushing some agenda in he background. Either that or they are generating fake outrage for a game they don't think will do well.

    "What if Black people were robots". I just realised how fucking brilliant this is, and its brilliancy is entirely on accident, I bet. The word "robot" is halfway between "rob" - meaning "slave"; and "robotnik" - meaning "employee". A person who is legally a person - i.e. not property - but also not fully free. It's a brilliant allegory and I'm 100% sure David Cage had no idea.

    He doesn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt, but I want to make it known anyway. Detroit isn’t necessarily “I want to write about civil rights, but nobody cares about minorities so I’ll use white ppl”. If it was that I don’t think they would have used so many black human characters. It seems more likely they wanted it to be about civil rights, but thought they where really clever in how it has nothing to do with skin color, even though it arguably is still about race.

      His whole career could just be summed up with him having only a surface level understanding of what he is writing about and stealing stuff from Hollywood without understanding why any of it works.
      The one thing that's probably in David Cage's favor is that he knows what stuff is the "good stuff" to steal.
      Detroit is probably the best game they have made, and feels like the one where they decided, finally, to steal some things from real life instead of grabbing everything straight from IMDB's Top Rated Movies list.
      Detroit is actually very arguably not about race. He brings up the topic of race through imagery, but he doesn't actually address race. Imagery from the Civil Rights Movement, USA history of black slavery, BLM movement, and the Holocaust, are just set dressing to gussy up a shallow story because he knows these topics mean something to other people.
      In fact, he's set up his world in exactly the way that would undercut any attempts to address racism, by making his marginalized group only questionably human. It's very much "racism" written by someone who does not understand racism at all.

      ​@@Agent_Cobalt My take just comes from me thinking about how most of the Civil Rights Era and BLM imagery stuff is shoved into Markus's section, but what you actually do in his section is "wake up the sheeple to rebel against the government" stuff that is actually kind of incongruous to that.
      Outside of the short sections with his owner and his owner's son, he doesn't really have any significant interactions with a human who isn't an active enemy combatant.
      If the story was about discrimination, you'd think it would actually have scenes addressing discrimination through android&human interaction, but instead the actual content of the Markus story is action movie segments and drama with other androids.
      So I guess my thing is that the writing seems to understand Civil Rights so poorly that for me it might as well not be about it at all.
      Connors segment is pretty much the best because of Hank. Through Hank as a human proxy they can address the discrimination against androids and the humanity of androids. Also because Hank is a depressed bastard they can tie Connor becoming more human with him losing his suicidal thoughts.
      The other storylines basically miss all of that by having them not interact consistently with a human character, aka that Alice twist shit.

    In defense of the Ubisoft statement, I THINK I know what that dev or PR guy in the interview was trying to say. He was saying FC6 wasn't political in the same way a lot of gamers say they don't want politics in their videogames. Which is to say that it has nothing to do with western progressivism. It's not that there's no politics, it's that the politics don't have a leftist stance.
    It's why this conversation is so hard to have because the 2 sides have an entirely different conception of what they're talking about. It's why "woke shit" has 2 different definitions on the left and right. For the left it's a very specific niche subset of leftist politics, for the right it's ANYTHING progressive, and that simply having a gay or black person in a videogame can qualify as "woke shit" (unless a Japanese dev did it, then it's said that the intention is pure because it's not tainted by western influence, but if said Japanese dev is leftist, then it's "pozzed" and proof that Japan is declining). So if this dev is saying "it's not political" and he genuinely means that, I think he means it's just not leftist and the person interviewing them is operating on a different wavelength than them.

    • @FrozenOver0
      @FrozenOver0 3 года назад +6

      Only a specific niche subset of the right see anything "progressive" as "woke shit." That specific subset also tends to think the entire left is the niche subset you mentioned.
      But I will agree that a big problem in the talk of "politics in (medium)" is differing definitions. For example, I don't see an environmentalist message as inherently political unless it's either suggesting some specific course of action, (i.e. a POLICY) or crosses over into shouting "the end is nigh! Repent sinners!" at the audience, while I have a friend who believes that everything is political in one way or another even if you're not consciously trying to make a political point with your work.
      Another problem is that die-hards on either side tend to take a stance of "Keep YOUR politics, specifically, out of our (medium)" even if they don't say those exact words. They'll happily lap up anything that agrees with their beliefs already, regardless of quality, and rail on things that either support the other side's talking points, or just don't toe the line closely enough.
      And further compounding the issue is that sometimes criticisms of how the message is handled is taken as criticism of and/or disagreement with the message itself, and one person ends up assuming the other person is telling them to "keep out politics" when they're really saying that the message could have been more convincing if you did X.

      To be fair, at the time Eliot Page was still Elin Page and had just come out of the closet as a lesbian.

    I once decided not to keep seeing a person because they were a fan of Quantic Dreams games. This just tells me how big the bullet was that I dodged. Good gods, David.

    People who write game stories are artists. People who orchestrate what people at AAA game companies can say during interviews are not. Let the games speak for themselves instead of letting a company's press team what the game is about.

    I’m fine with social commentary. Just don’t make it bad or cringe. And actually have something to say (if you have to say anything) besides “do better”.

      This is something i can get behind, like I'll admit i often have a knee jerk reaction to when a developer says they're gonna make something political, because it always seems like it'll end up lacking any subtlety or nuance. I enjoy allegory and metaphors instead of just making every character a victim or something. Like how x men was an allegory for racism at first and then later became a thing about mutants being a stand in for gay people like that's a good use of politics because it was within the fictional universe and professor x provided an optimistic point of view instead of just "everyone is shit, hashtag oppression" if you'll forgive the hyperbole

      that's generally my problem with social/political commentary.
      it's always handled with all the subtlety & nuance of a tactical nuke for no other reason than to "start a conversation" while having NOTHING to contribute to said conversation.

    BF2042 Announced it doesn't have a single player campaign and that "story elements" are woven into the multiplayer. So defend the refugee camp from getting genocided by the Russian No-Pats might be a....story element. Also weather manipulation weapons out of G.I. Joe might be a thing. So weaponized climate change is probably a bullet point.
    Its worth mentioning they kind of leaned heavily into political aspects in the background of BFV and got roasted for it. I remember seeing a leaked photo/video from a like a dev launch event that people went on about forever.
