The first part I disagree with is 6:18 Access to sources would dry up if Bellular, or anyone like him, gave less favorable reviews. That's just how marketing works. Why would a company continue to give early access or information to someone who consistently criticizes their products? That being said, AndyPants is obviously part of the anti-woke crowd. Personally, I find both sides-woke and anti-woke-idiotic. I just want companies to focus on making more creative games.
What's annoying to me is Act Man made good points as to why the game failed. (points I would argue are more sensible than D.E.I bad) For example, not enough hype behind this game, the game being $40 vs free-to-play games, (especially for Overwatch, Valorant, and apex legends) and the game overall is bland and unoriginal. The games I mentioned all have diversity in their own way but, are successful because the games are fun and already have an established fanbase/company backing it up. Name calling creators because they don't talk about a subject or don't find it necessary to include it in the video is childish. AndyPantsGaming is mirroring the behaviors of the people he mocks and/or criticizes.
I think the difference bewtween other game's diversity and Concords is that it was done in a way that wasn't an insult to the audience. Concord made their characters intentionally repulsive as away to avert the, "Male gaze." Its like how Warmhammer 4k retconned its lore, gaslight its dedicated audience, and added women with the faces of hypermasculin aryian super soldiers to a male only regiment. Audiences don't like being insulted, so it definitely played a role in Concords downfall. That being said, AndyPantsGaming is being a nuissance at this point trying to drag mostly neutral actors into a hot political debate. He's making an ass of himself right now trying to cancel creators who just want to talk about games.
As soon as andy started talking about the “commie lgbt satanist” i tuned out, Besides not every gay person is a satanic worshipping pedo that fox media portray them as
The thing about Andy is that he used to be an Xbox fan TH-camr, but that didn't get him the attention he wanted. So he switched to right wing grifting which gave him a much larger audience. He doesn't believe anything he's saying, it's all for the money and attention.
@@dakabaka4912 I'm not exactly sure if he believes what he's saying. But I do think it's rather suspicious that his fame was achieved through spouting the same anti-woke sentiment as other large anti-woke channels like Endymion. A lot of people use popular beliefs to gain a following, and I wouldn't be shocked if he's doing that.
@@acrane3496 Every influencer grifts though, the guy we're watching now covers a lot of 'anti-woke content' when it's supposedly not important. You're talking more about audience capture, IE that Brazillian guy who made the Sweet Baby thing was a big fan of a JRPG series and his audience kept harping that he didn't list it for whatever reason until he finally did (think it was Persona?) Same thing about that Sythetik fella, for all the shit he goes on about Starfield, God of War, etc; he covered and promoted a bunch of indie platformers like Pseudoregalia and Korn Kidz which would totally be outside his current audience expectation.
So, you know how in my prior comment I predicted AndyPantsGaming would send his fellow cultists after you? I have nothing to say, but *CALLED IT!* I am so familiar with how these people operate that I can tell just what they're gonna do before they do it, and sure enough, AndyPants did the thing I knew he was gonna do.

Great video, glad to see people speaking out against this type of grifting. While some of the problems that are outlined are correct, their whole idea is still "put this thing that i want" without any regard to the developers. At the end of the day, they are the same "woke feminist" guys they complain about.
I think the main issue is that companies are hiring leftwing activists and individuals who are funded by ESG money to try and forcefully normalize leftwing ideas. The permeation of leftwing ideas into gaming spaces is not a natural development, but a very astroturfed one.
Radical leftwing ideas are deeply unpopular with the male gaming audience, which is why the left has to use ESG money to try and forcefully normalize the ideas in games. He speaks for many people tired of being attacked by an astroturfed industry full of activist plants, but he isn't very tactful about it it seems.
@@dakabaka4912 1/2 I understand the point you are trying to make here and i somewhat agree. However, there is a point from critique to grift and a lot of people are going down that radicalisation route like the "religious youtuber" that was the spotlight of this video. As for the whole debate on "woke", "dei" stuff, i would like to remind that most of us live in a somewhat free market, thus they need customers and if companies hire people that hate the product/customers, i say let them do it. You can choose not to support a product, it is your money after all but demanding that the game does specifically what you want to do is egotistical and shows a lack of compassion for the work of the developers, if they are "woke" or not.
@@dakabaka4912 2/2 I would also argue that innovation leads to both bad and good products. Baldurs Gate and Cyberpunk both have "woke" elements to them and they both are received warmly by the gaming community. And we also have Saints Row and SS:KTJL which failed to uphold the legacy of their developers. Everything should be analysed on a case by case basis. Concord didn't fail just because of "ugly women". It was a poorly managed project with a lot of problems after the release. Not everything is black and white, you know?
