Anyone remember that Marvel comic series with heroes named "Safespace" and "Snowflake"? And it appeared to be a sincere attempt to "reclaim" those labels after they'd been mocked for years? To be unnecessarily charitable, I think this "game" is trying to be something that. And also fails miserably. This is a lot worse than I realized, too.
In my opinion it could be an entertaining character…IF THE WRITERS WERE ACTUALLY SKILLED. I believe a good writer can make ANY character fascinating, no matter how obnoxious or terrible it may sound on paper. Unfortunately we’ve got smooth brained lobotomites writing games nowadays.
I'm noticing a pattern. Every now and again, the woke will try to 'own' the cringiest aspects of their culture by making it seem cool or directly embracing the negative stereotypes. Like 'Safe Space' and 'Snowflake' from New Warriors. But no matter how hard you try, you can't make this sort of cringe cool.
They try to use the buzzword used against them, hoping they can explain why it's actually a good thing. But it always shows their cognitive disonence to how they justify bad actions
As a member of the Lgbtq+ community(by association), I feel the need to say that from my perspective “Safe Space” and “Snowflake” were created by a corporation trying to be “inclusive” Don’t know about who made Dustborn tho, so I can’t say the same about all the cringeworthy garbage in that game.

I have only seen of 4 of the game mechanics: bully, cancel, and normalize, even trigger…but now you’re telling me there’s GASLIGHT. How is this even a game? This feels 1000% satire, yet it’s not. Edit: Discord??? I repeat how is this even a game and not satire?
One of the characters is described in the game as being good at gaslighting, this can only happen when you believe that is a skill, they believe that everything is relative so gaslighting is not bad. This game was made by evil people, I've seen tweets by some of them and they are evil.
Its simple. They know these labels are effective, and they made this game to target kids and teenagers to groom them into becoming a freaky weirdo just like them. They HAVE to target kids. They NEED to. At the end of the day its #1 thing they care about above all else (besides g3y s*x) and they people funding this stuff wants it to. They all hate white people and want to take over our place in our own culture. They will tell you this themselves. Its not a conspiracy. They hate us and they want less of us and the ones they can't get rid of they want to be as effeminate and mentally disabled as possible.
If I hadn't seen other things about the devs, etc, I could easily be convinced it was made by a right-wing group for various satirical to hateful reasons (I'm decidedly right of center, but there are definitely hateful fringes in any group). What makes the most sense to me is they used AI to heavily write their script and it picked up a lot of the buzzwords the "woke" side uses and went all in on it thinking it was a good thing.
The "Good Guys" - Bully, Cancel, Trigger, Hoax, Push, Block, and 'Discord'. The "Bad Guys" say things that the "Good Guys" don't like, and it gets under their skin so far, that they resort to violence. I'm actually stunned by this documentary of a game.
@@cfamcam5663 psychonauts 2 has a great take on this were Raz does the same and the leader of the Organisation tells him with doing such a thing is so wrong
ikr! i always wondered how people followed hit "charles chaplin" ler and len ing back then knowing how evil they are, but turns out people do not realize when they're fascist. like, not "pretend-fascist" like the word lightly being thrown today. i mean the real deal. these people actually want to force their own word views so badly and are so intolerant that they have wet dreams about mind control.
When developers include the literal normalization of violence to children, you can’t ever convince me that these people don’t know deep down inside that they’re the real villains.
I don't have to, these developers (specifically, Red Thread Games) are true believers in the Social Justice Warrior Agenda. I specifically recall one of Asmongold's reactions to a video about Concord, and he (Zack) specifically mentioned how developers are so far gone into the games they make AND as such, hold high degrees of personal investment into said games, that they can NOT take a step back or humble themselves with basic criticism. They legitimately believe that "working hard" on something entitles THEM to demand your full attention and investment into their games because they are "works of art". And that not doing so means that you are a bigot for not respecting their "vision" by abstaining from purchasing the game because it is a pile of shit.
They admire viruses. "The Virus of Critical Social Justice" (by James Lindsay) goes through a paper about why the Woke think it's GOOD to be like Ebola and HIV. These are people so pampered, they have no idea how painful it can be to die of some viruses.
@@Mario87456 It isn't. The only thing notable was the technical aspect of the graphics at the time. The story is overall trash, and it's pretty much a non game. This is pretty much the case with everything that comes out of David Cage's studio.

Harmful Opinions: "I will never psychologically recover from this purchase." You and me both, brother, and I didn't even buy it, you did. I just got the drain bramage by proxy.
Its an amazing game. Well... it's an amazing *product.* Many forms of media have tried to represent a thought process, and failed. Here's a 1 to 1 translation of woke. The whole playbook and strategy. Both pages.
I'll be honest, if this was written by a right wing game company it would be considered a masterpiece of satire, but it would still be a shit game. Maybe the alternate devs could figure out a better way.
To be fair to generative AI, the dialogue and voice over could very well be generative. OpenAI's voice model does stumble over words and flub lines at times, since it was trained to sound like a person in conversation.
Could also explain the use of evil concepts as good guy powers, too. "Target audience constantly uses terms like gaslight and bully--these must be central to their creed."
I was going through the comments in a quick pace and I read yours and I was thinking to myself: "But the saints row series is really fun/whacky and in a way, gangster?" But then I suddenly remembered the remake. That was a whiplash I was not expecting. 😂
This game feels like someone compiled the filler parts of Life is Strange 2. The synopsis makes it sound hilarious but it's so slow that I might as well be watching a paint drying stream.
You are the first YTber who played this game bother to go into the setting- and oh boy. I always assume this is a future dystopian setting about an alternate post-2016 after someone is elected as president- but nah, this is in a way, way worst. Socialist Canada? Excuse me? Not saying that couldn't happen- I mean, alternate history, do whatever you want. But anyone who deem a "Socialist state" the good guys really needs a reality check: Go visit the "Socialist States" and see how things fair out.
It depends what you mean with "socialism". According to conservative Americans all Western European countries are "socialist" because they have public healthcare.
" we must consider hell as a place everyone is concerned about their own dignity and advancement, where everyone has a grievance, and where everyone lives in the deadly serious passions of envy, self importance, and resentment "....C.S. Lewis on where this game is set...
Tim didn’t mention another grating aspect of the game. During downtime, your “companions” have inane chatter with each other as you might expect. But, just to make sure you can’t possibly miss out on it, the rambling will stop and restart if you ever wander too far away to overhear it or enter dialogue with someone unrelated. The writers are so proud of the yapping they wrote that they’ll gladly play it a dozen times for you!
I don't know, Concord probably stole a significant portion of their market share. It has actual competent gameplay from what I've seen. It also did like 10 times better. If it hadn't come out, Dustborn easily could've made another hundred bucks or two...
I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone can read these game concepts and think "yeah, this is good. this will sell." The gaming industry is heading for a crash, and the companies making this slop deserve it.
What? One of them is a Muslim girl? As a Muslim myself, I'm confused do they ever actually meet any Muslim girl?? If she's supposed to be Islamic she just broke almost every religious law there is, like girls are not supposed to show a lot of their skin (unless it's to family members), girls are not allowed to live with men if they're not married, etc.
0:10 I’m sorry, was that part of the story literally them just straight up killing cops? Like, she ran, causes a semi to lose control, which undoubtably resulted in deaths. Only for them to go “man, that was close” THESE ARE THE “GOOD GUYS”?! This is even more disgusting because the devs clearly see nothing wrong with it. Especially that goofy picture they took after the ‘Getaway’. This game deserves all the failure and ridicule it has gotten.
Yep maybe that’s why they kidnap kids in this horror show of a game! I won’t be surprised to be honest if that’s the reason, it’s sad that people somewhere out there actually like this unGodly stuff!
I love how calling someone "Anomal" is the "politically correct" version of calling them "deviants", for the universe the game takes place in Fun fact: Anomal comes from Greek (ανώμαλος) and means "not having level ground", but when it is used for people, it is a euphemism that means "pervert", "fetishist" or anything in that regard. In other words, "Anomals" prefer being called "perverts" instead of deviants, which doesn't have a euphemistic meaning, as far as I am aware of, unlike "anomal". Shows how much research the devs did and how much they themselves "love foreigners"
@cuuurlyfries5246 taxpayers always complaining, about the roads, the Healthcare, the border. You know what the government never hears? A simple "thank you" Do you know how hard it is to make a video game with less going for it than a "choose your own adventure" coloring book?

No. Don't even pirate it. There's an option to rehearse the song minigame, so you'll have to hear it more than once. Oh. And all the puzzles are gaslighting and verbal abuse.
I've been watching some of this Live with you and chat. As brutal as this game is, it's been fun. Chat is friendly and funny, and you've got some spicy zinger, a quick wit, and a contagious laugh. Criminally underrated channel. My favorite part was when the robot got hit by a train.
It doesn't feel like AI to me. It feels like it was written by pathological narcissists that have grown up in the dystopian hellscape of social media from the moment they started developing social connections. As a result they simply don't _have_ deep social connections and the ones they do have feel shallow and artificial. As godawful as it is, I honestly believe it accurately captures the zeitgeist of its designers and intended audience.
Just to inform anyone who bought this and somehow sludged through playing more than the 2hr Refund mark on steam. If you send an email to Steam's customer service line, they'll more likely to refund the game for you even if its past the 2hr mark.

I have only seen of 4 of the game mechanics: bully, cancel, and normalize, even trigger…but now you’re telling me there’s GASLIGHT. How is this even a game? This feels 1000% satire, yet it’s not.
Edit: Discord??? I repeat how is this even a game and not satire?
One of the characters is described in the game as being good at gaslighting, this can only happen when you believe that is a skill, they believe that everything is relative so gaslighting is not bad.
This game was made by evil people, I've seen tweets by some of them and they are evil.
@@Re-PhantomZeroyeah this game should be banned just so people won’t accidentally buy it!
@@Re-PhantomZero if someone tells you they’re good at gaslighting, that shouldn’t be seen as good thing. That is deeply concerning. O.O
Its simple. They know these labels are effective, and they made this game to target kids and teenagers to groom them into becoming a freaky weirdo just like them. They HAVE to target kids. They NEED to. At the end of the day its #1 thing they care about above all else (besides g3y s*x) and they people funding this stuff wants it to. They all hate white people and want to take over our place in our own culture. They will tell you this themselves. Its not a conspiracy. They hate us and they want less of us and the ones they can't get rid of they want to be as effeminate and mentally disabled as possible.
If I hadn't seen other things about the devs, etc, I could easily be convinced it was made by a right-wing group for various satirical to hateful reasons (I'm decidedly right of center, but there are definitely hateful fringes in any group). What makes the most sense to me is they used AI to heavily write their script and it picked up a lot of the buzzwords the "woke" side uses and went all in on it thinking it was a good thing.
They unironically made triggering a gameplay mechanic???
That and "cancelling"
Sounds awfully on the nose doesn’t it?
@@cfamcam5663 It's a big nose
Triggered feminist memes may have died out a long time ago, but somehow this game is reviving it
The "Good Guys" - Bully, Cancel, Trigger, Hoax, Push, Block, and 'Discord'.
The "Bad Guys" say things that the "Good Guys" don't like, and it gets under their skin so far, that they resort to violence.
I'm actually stunned by this documentary of a game.
Sort of like Barbie, where the "heroes" save the day by kidnapping and brainwashing the happy populace into being angry and resentful.
Uff the ability to rewrite a persons mind and doing so without a second thought
Imagine these people actually having Power
If you feel the need to mind wipe someone you disagree with then you can’t be reasoned with and can’t reason with others.
@@cfamcam5663 psychonauts 2 has a great take on this were Raz does the same and the leader of the Organisation tells him with doing such a thing is so wrong
ikr! i always wondered how people followed hit "charles chaplin" ler and len ing back then knowing how evil they are, but turns out people do not realize when they're fascist. like, not "pretend-fascist" like the word lightly being thrown today. i mean the real deal. these people actually want to force their own word views so badly and are so intolerant that they have wet dreams about mind control.
Yeah, this game is a dangerous power fantasy. They wish they could just remove thoughts from your friend so you can think like they do
This is the bloodborne sequel we were all waiting for right?
Sure buddy. Go and buy it.
Actually don't. The law require that I tell you this.
Yeah, that's what 99 Insight (Inhuman Knowledge) looks like.
If anyone thinks he’s serious I think he’s joking at the fact it’s called dust-born and there is a video game named bloodborn!
Such disrespect at bloodbornes name 😭😭
This game depicts modern day Lovecraftian horrors instead of oldschool ones like in Bloodborne.
By buying this, you are pretty much 10-15% the entire income the devs got through sales. The remaining 85% are devs' family and friends.
These things have friends?
When developers include the literal normalization of violence to children, you can’t ever convince me that these people don’t know deep down inside that they’re the real villains.
I think it’s telling that the characters who were written to be the good guys perform reprehensible actions constantly.
I don't have to, these developers (specifically, Red Thread Games) are true believers in the Social Justice Warrior Agenda. I specifically recall one of Asmongold's reactions to a video about Concord, and he (Zack) specifically mentioned how developers are so far gone into the games they make AND as such, hold high degrees of personal investment into said games, that they can NOT take a step back or humble themselves with basic criticism. They legitimately believe that "working hard" on something entitles THEM to demand your full attention and investment into their games because they are "works of art". And that not doing so means that you are a bigot for not respecting their "vision" by abstaining from purchasing the game because it is a pile of shit.
The bug is airborne
We love to watch porn (Is that the lyric?)
They admire viruses.
"The Virus of Critical Social Justice" (by James Lindsay) goes through a paper about why the Woke think it's GOOD to be like Ebola and HIV.
These are people so pampered, they have no idea how painful it can be to die of some viruses.
and soon when it dies it will be dustborn

This is canon to Fahrenheit.
@@Mario87456 They have never made anything good, should have never been given respect in the first place.
@@BoxyBrown717 Oh come on Heavy Rain is pretty good. Sure it has its flaws but you do not talk shit about it since it is overall pretty good.
@@Mario87456 It isn't. The only thing notable was the technical aspect of the graphics at the time. The story is overall trash, and it's pretty much a non game. This is pretty much the case with everything that comes out of David Cage's studio.
This game has genuinely some of the most hideous character designs.
Were they made based on the writers? Cause that would explain a LOT.

There is straight up a "normalize" function.
Normalizing kidnapping is wrong on so many levels!instead of kidnapping take care of the child as good as you can till you find the parents like you could do in the walking dead telltale.
Did you know in that clip from what I heard from the TH-camr that normalize button was there when kidnapping a child?
@cfamcam5663 yeah, these devs are mentally sick
You see, they just started saying it publicly in front of cameras...
The puritans are like Gods.
Frankly I'd rather deal with a Puritan than these people.
I swear this game feels like a 4chan psyop to mock leftoids
This is normal.
These days, yes.
I see someone used the normalize command.

@@ChrisR2020 I feel I got robbed of the £25 Tim spent. And I was just watching him play.
Its an amazing game. Well... it's an amazing *product.* Many forms of media have tried to represent a thought process, and failed. Here's a 1 to 1 translation of woke. The whole playbook and strategy. Both pages.
I'll be honest, if this was written by a right wing game company it would be considered a masterpiece of satire, but it would still be a shit game. Maybe the alternate devs could figure out a better way.
"My OC plz donut steel!"

Wait a second (said in Peter Griffin voice)
"I just want to talk to them" - Peter Griffin voice while loading shotgun
Like they’re not even trying to hide it, the degenerates
To be fair to generative AI, the dialogue and voice over could very well be generative. OpenAI's voice model does stumble over words and flub lines at times, since it was trained to sound like a person in conversation.
Could also explain the use of evil concepts as good guy powers, too. "Target audience constantly uses terms like gaslight and bully--these must be central to their creed."
There are all actors. They are credited. Dominique Tipper who played in The Expanse, is the actress for Pax.
This makes the last Saints Row look like a hard core gangster game🤣🤣🤣
I was going through the comments in a quick pace and I read yours and I was thinking to myself: "But the saints row series is really fun/whacky and in a way, gangster?" But then I suddenly remembered the remake.
That was a whiplash I was not expecting. 😂
@@MasterGamer12234 thank you for pointing that out I fixed it and it makes more sense now
We're drowning in media, but starving for entertainment. Never before has there been so much "stuff," but none of it is watchable or playable.
This game feels like someone compiled the filler parts of Life is Strange 2. The synopsis makes it sound hilarious but it's so slow that I might as well be watching a paint drying stream.
THE PURITANS ARE LIKE GODS
Unintentionally based
hearing abby road and dustborn writers in the same sentence dealt psychic damage.
You are the first YTber who played this game bother to go into the setting- and oh boy.
I always assume this is a future dystopian setting about an alternate post-2016 after someone is elected as president- but nah, this is in a way, way worst.
Socialist Canada? Excuse me?
Not saying that couldn't happen- I mean, alternate history, do whatever you want.
But anyone who deem a "Socialist state" the good guys really needs a reality check: Go visit the "Socialist States" and see how things fair out.
It depends what you mean with "socialism". According to conservative Americans all Western European countries are "socialist" because they have public healthcare.
" we must consider hell as a place everyone is concerned about their own dignity and advancement, where everyone has a grievance, and where everyone lives in the deadly serious passions of envy, self importance, and resentment "....C.S. Lewis on where this game is set...
sounds like he was describing social media in general
Love the Screwtape Letters
He has so many prescient quotes. I particularly like the one about moral busybodies being the worst form of tyrant.
The NPC at the very start of the game after that shitty song says it the best
"This is *** we don't like politics with our entertainment here"
Ah yes, the "evil fascists" with their horrible plan to "mind their own business" and "live a peaceful life".
Tim didn’t mention another grating aspect of the game. During downtime, your “companions” have inane chatter with each other as you might expect. But, just to make sure you can’t possibly miss out on it, the rambling will stop and restart if you ever wander too far away to overhear it or enter dialogue with someone unrelated. The writers are so proud of the yapping they wrote that they’ll gladly play it a dozen times for you!
I'm preeetty sure this game is some form of hate crime in and of itself.
3:42 even the cat decided to bail 😂
I dont blame the cat haha
This is the biggest war crime Norway has committed since the Beisfjord massacre
When I played it, I honestly thought it was created by a right-wing conservative as a joke.
It’s hard to know for sure if something is actually satire isn’t it?
It really seems like it doesn’t it
Whoever made this should be thankful Concord came out 3 days later.
I don't know, Concord probably stole a significant portion of their market share. It has actual competent gameplay from what I've seen. It also did like 10 times better. If it hadn't come out, Dustborn easily could've made another hundred bucks or two...
I've been told some don't like this because it exposes them for who they really are. Basically its Velma the video game.
Well it certainly exposes the hacks who made it not that much effort was needed just more in your face stupidity and delusional wanking.

I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone can read these game concepts and think "yeah, this is good. this will sell." The gaming industry is heading for a crash, and the companies making this slop deserve it.
It doesn’t have to sell, hard working taxpayers funded it 😊
They made a Muslim female character that uses shorts as her outfit? Isn't that wrong and disrespectful?
It is.
Why is the woke obsessed with vitiglio?
Because they actively try to make things as ugly as humanly possible. It's the symptom of Stage 4 wokeness.
they're obsessed with LGBTQ Muslims too. A skin condition is the least weird thing they are obsessed over. js.
Because it’s two skin colors and a disabled representation in one character
Ah, you’re one of the 10 people who bought this.
Thanks for the warning about Route Zero, I know to avoid it and just get Route 96 itself.
Did he meant Mile 0 ?
Wait wait? She keeps the baby!? WAHH THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!!! They even have a van to get rid of that baby! How neglectful.
It’s ok, the child is brown
So there's a mechanic where you can literally suck the 'wrong think' out of people's heads and delete it...I mean come on.
What? One of them is a Muslim girl? As a Muslim myself, I'm confused do they ever actually meet any Muslim girl?? If she's supposed to be Islamic she just broke almost every religious law there is, like girls are not supposed to show a lot of their skin (unless it's to family members), girls are not allowed to live with men if they're not married, etc.
Hey, don't you dare to use logic. Leftoids don't understand it
That's "representation" in a nutshell
To them your religion is a box to check, nothing more
Dustborn: A portmanteau of “Dustbin” and “Stillborn”.
0:10 I’m sorry, was that part of the story literally them just straight up killing cops? Like, she ran, causes a semi to lose control, which undoubtably resulted in deaths. Only for them to go “man, that was close”
THESE ARE THE “GOOD GUYS”?!
This is even more disgusting because the devs clearly see nothing wrong with it. Especially that goofy picture they took after the ‘Getaway’. This game deserves all the failure and ridicule it has gotten.
Only good by left wing standards it seems
Okay, on it's own, that's not a problem; do you know how many cops I have killed in GTA or Saints Row?
This might be the first mainstream game I can unironically call evil
They.....they made Bully into a power for the good guy and tried framing it as a good thing? What is wrong with these people?!
"Newborn Porn" slaps

That’s from A Serbian Film.
Bro on a watch list now 😂
That line was my first thought when I heard that awful song, lol
Yep maybe that’s why they kidnap kids in this horror show of a game! I won’t be surprised to be honest if that’s the reason, it’s sad that people somewhere out there actually like this unGodly stuff!
If someone told me the Daily Wire was making games now and Dustborn was their first creation, I’d believe them.
Only if you lived in opposite world
This whole game feels like a undercover op lol. It checks off every single insufferable stereotype of the far left.
@D_an_ That's the horrible truth. These people are so far gone that they've become living parodies of themselves.
@@D_an_no that's their true self normies and media just ignore it or try to gaslight.
I love how calling someone "Anomal" is the "politically correct" version of calling them "deviants", for the universe the game takes place in
Fun fact: Anomal comes from Greek (ανώμαλος) and means "not having level ground", but when it is used for people, it is a euphemism that means "pervert", "fetishist" or anything in that regard. In other words, "Anomals" prefer being called "perverts" instead of deviants, which doesn't have a euphemistic meaning, as far as I am aware of, unlike "anomal".
Shows how much research the devs did and how much they themselves "love foreigners"
did nobody notice that the apartment layout at 00:40 is from GTA V?
God damn 😂
Capitalism bad
Daddy government pay
The game isn't for you, it's for the government. They already bought and paid for it.
They didn’t pay for it lol. The tax payers did…
@cuuurlyfries5246 taxpayers always complaining, about the roads, the Healthcare, the border. You know what the government never hears? A simple "thank you"
Do you know how hard it is to make a video game with less going for it than a "choose your own adventure" coloring book?

Before this video I just didn't like Dustborn. After watching this, I now despise this interactive soviet-like poster propaganda. Why, just why? BULLYING? NORMALIZING bad behavior? CANCELLING? Thank you eyeryone who made this piece of crap for taking my last hope for humanity and obliterating it in front of my eyes.
Imo the funniest thing in these failure games is that the journalists praise them :D So now everyone can see how useless that whole industry has become and what kinds of crazy activists they got writing the articles, lol.
Its like watching a landslide from a safe distance with popcorn.
Unironically the pong simulation was the most exciting part of the stream, not bad for a 50ish year old game.

Vantablack brimstone from the deepest depths of sub saharan hell
On the one hand this game sounds like an awful cancerous slog, on the other hand it sounds so atrocious I almost want to play through it because it sounds too insane/hilarious to be true
"Legally" "purchased" of course, I would never pirate such a brave and stunning game
No. Don't even pirate it. There's an option to rehearse the song minigame, so you'll have to hear it more than once. Oh. And all the puzzles are gaslighting and verbal abuse.
DID NO ONE IN RED THREAD THINK "NORMALIZE" THE CHILD TO KIDNAPPING WAS A BAAAAAAAD IDEA!!!
They don't see it as a problem, I'm sure--they are just "liberating"' the child.
It comes across as if the writers were bullied in high school and just put all the insults into the game as a failed power move.
The writing is diabolical and that song is even worse
I've been watching some of this Live with you and chat. As brutal as this game is, it's been fun. Chat is friendly and funny, and you've got some spicy zinger, a quick wit, and a contagious laugh. Criminally underrated channel.
My favorite part was when the robot got hit by a train.
Okay I'm going to go back to sleep, and we're just going to agree as a community, that Dustborn was just a wild fever dream.
It doesn't feel like AI to me. It feels like it was written by pathological narcissists that have grown up in the dystopian hellscape of social media from the moment they started developing social connections. As a result they simply don't _have_ deep social connections and the ones they do have feel shallow and artificial.
As godawful as it is, I honestly believe it accurately captures the zeitgeist of its designers and intended audience.
Dustborn might as well be the culmination of every single millenial shitlib cliche of faux-rebellion.
Just to inform anyone who bought this and somehow sludged through playing more than the 2hr Refund mark on steam. If you send an email to Steam's customer service line, they'll more likely to refund the game for you even if its past the 2hr mark.
The more I hear about this game, the more I wonder of it's some bizarre prank orchestrated by by a group of TH-camrs foe laughs
What makes it even worse is that the home base you're in at 0:49 is assests taken directly from gta onlines house spawn. im surprised take2 or rockstar hasn't hit em with a cease and desist

They are projecting their own unlikablity and narcissism. It is a self-insert MC. Everything about her is absolute garbage and full of hate on those with "The wrong opinions".
