I knew this game was terrible when it tried to pain the US as bad for opposing Russia taking over the artic, and it paints Canada as this wonderful place.... where androids are outlawed. It's just pretentious Euro-hackery
Yes, I feel so embarrassed to admit "I really kind of liked this game even though it is 100% the dumbest shit ever". Stupidly edgy, completely tone deaf, impossible to take seriously, total lack of subtlety. David Cage is a hack but the hackery is so bad it is enjoyable in a very stupid way.
You know, I could go on an hour long rant about just why I feel like this game is some of the worst, pretentious and repulsive horseshit I have ever seen in the world of video games. But to save time I'm just gonna drop literal android concentration camp. No, seriously. That's all I need. That's all that ANYONE needs to see in order to understand what makes this game bad, and what also makes David Cage a worse person that I ever thought possible. And don't even think about arguing with me about this. I'll say it again: literal android concentration camp. That's it.
@@Harkness78 I don't see that anywhere in their comment. They seem to be mocking the way it was done in this game specifically. That doesn't mean you can never include it in any game ever.
Why is it so important to tie it to / explicitly mention the black civil rights movement of the 60s and slavery? Like, unless a 6 year old is playing this game, the audience knows about those struggles. The whole game is an analogy of the civil rights movement, you don't explicitly mention the thing you are actively doing an analogy of. That would be distracting and heavy handed.
It's not just an analogy, it's set in the future of the actual place where that happened. It makes no sense for the characters not to make the conscious connection
@@DGarrettDG It's the way they do it that is hacky. It's just a poorly perceived outside/European perspective on a complicated part of American history, and they smear it all over. Just terribly done

Been going over these old podcasts ah the good old days
Coming back to this nearly a year later, and it is still very funny how Jeff Bakalar keeps groaning in horror
alex is a blessing
This game getting nominated for Best Narrative at the Game Awards is a goddamn travesty.

European games have the worst writing... it's just shocking at this point
I will say that Alex is 100% correct AND I still loved playing the game.

Not just concentration camp. Fuckin DEATH camp.
so we can't have concentration camps in games?
