Thank you for watching! So we have our first new game revealed to be attached to the baby & it looks…bad? And this Verge journalist is proving me unfortunately right. These journo’s hate people like me & others. Oh well! G-FUEL CODE: ENDYMION G-FUEL LINK: sldr.page.link/L53U Instagram: endymionn Twitter: EndymionYT
Rejection is not harassment. Refusal to participate is not harassment. Making them go broke for being woke is not harassment. Harassment is constantly shoving your agenda and narrative down my throat.
Harassment is also trying to get other people to go after someone just for disagreeing with them which is what they definitely tried to do to 'Sweet Baby Detected'.
Appropriating inaccurate connotations of words that definitively do not apply to the topic at hand is like 90% of lefty political arguments nowadays lmao
Them waking up in a cold sweat at night cause they know they'll have a nice hole in their resume after trying to apply for a new job when sweet baby goes belly up, or just never get to work in the industry again, cause which company will risk burning their reputation... that must suck ass... 🥲
Imagine you are the head of a studio. You are forced to deal with a DEI house mucking about your project because that's how financing happens. Sucks but that's how it is for now. Now imagine you're watching SBI handle this situation like toddlers, worse still, they created the problem in the first place. Putting all the politics aside, SBI are so damn unprofessional, this is going to sink them no matter what. If I'm the head of the studio, I'm going to hold my nose and pick a DEI merchant whose slime trail is nowhere near SBI.
@kagetsuki23 I never heard of Blackrock until the great Gamestop stock wars of 2020. Now it seems Blackerock is involved in everything!! Stock market, housing crisis, rent crisis, Media journalism and now gaming. Blackrock is starting to sound like Hydra!
Gamer Gate was a movement started by gamers as a push for ethics in games journalism. It was started after it came to light that a developer, Zoe Quinn, slept her way to good reviews with two games journalists. The narrative was hijacked by known grifter, Anita Sarkeesian, into claiming GamerGate was a misogynistic harassment campaign, even though ot was proven that several of the "dox" attempts provided no substantial info and were actually done by Quinn herself. The majority of the public allowed themselves to be duped by this false narrative, so it makes me happy that more people are seeing this grift for what it is. GamerGate failed, maybe 2.0 will finally succeed in holding journalists and companies like SBI accountable.
I find all this drama eye-rolly, but that much is true, though to be fair it was indeed co-opted by sexists and racists, but it was never an organized force anyway and it's incredibly disgenerous to cherrypick the people you swear embodies every single damn person with a complaint. The saddest part of all was the hijacking of the wikipedia article using the very same journalists people had issue with who all left out the negatives and mistakes of their side, just like now, and refused to accept even a little responsability/accountability, so many people really do think it was just a random out of the blue troll run by kiwi farms and/or 4chan or adjacent groups. Don't really know a better out-in-the-open example of why controlled information is dangerous, but there you go.
The fact that this company had ties to the department of defense .money wise and was made to make art and videogames worse on purpose while labeling anyone who spoke out against were made to be pariahs.
At the end of the day, it's money saved for me. I will never give them a red cent and that is legitimately the most damaging thing I can do. So I will keep doing it, knowing that I have missed out on absolutely nothing of value whatsoever while passively saving gaming. Sounds great to me.
its easier than that. just wait for a trusted reviewer (TH-cam has a bunch of good ones) to give their opinion. They cannot hide their bad quality and politics. while their bad quality is a side effect, the politics are their goal, so hiding their crap is impossible.
See thats the problem I have. They arent really woke. They trivialize discrimination, they reward ethnicity over ethic and hardwork, they attack instead of having conversation and WORST their new and improve grounded characters are walking stereotypes and tokenism encarnated. They sure as shit arent woke, they are assholes. Put it ike this: X-Men is woke, pretty much everything Dwayne McDuffy wrote is woke, FUCKING HELL I'm woke. These guys? Assholes.
Remember these people HATE you and me. Doesn’t matter our skin color or gender. They hate gamers. So point and laugh at them and NEVER give them money.
No, trust me, race does matter to them. They refer to white people, including themselves/some people on their team as "settlers." In their view, white people are colonizers/land thieves, and it's not possible to be racist to them - one of their team also had "You can't be racist to white people" plastered on her Twitter profile theme. They want less straight and white people in games. Racism (which just means prejudice towards or discrimination towards another race) has been redefined by them as racial superiority by those in power - this also likely means they consider white people racist by nature, even if you or your family had no part in slavery. If you say race has no part in it, you are just in denial.
They’ve by default called my mum a whiny alt right basement dwelling picky baby. And all the other gameplaying folk in the over 50s vilage where I live. I told mum about all this today. She’s progressive but not stupid, and it was making her lip curl and call these fools out for what they are. She’s been a gamer for the majority of my 50+years and she reckons gaming was doing fine with diversity etc all on it’s own, and it doesn’t need rl ideologies tacked onto game environments. So, that’s the opinion of a 73yo Aussie lady who spent covid building her own house, and who has been in the same tabletop gang for 20 odd years. And who’s current go-to game is Elder Scrolls. Gamers are not a monolith.
@@creatrixZBD She's a "progressive" (She’s been a gamer for the majority of my "50+" years , how old is she ? ) , no, the Overton window gone too far-left, she's probably a "far-right" by today's standards. Maybe she's just a classical liberal, like most of us are, if she cringed at this, she still has morals, so she can't "left" anymore. Anything that's not basically marxism or far-left is going to be denounced as "far-right" or even n@z1, just for no agreeing with the insanity of the left, I mean, the far-left (there's no left anymore, classical liberalism is DEAD)
oh "73yo Aussie lady" That explains it. I wish we could go back to simpler times. (I say that, but I'm only 36, but I am a progressive, a liberal, I'm just out a more "conservative" one, like your mom probably is)
One problem though. If games like that succeed, other companies will see it. If games like that earn alot of money, other companies would want to copy it.
You have to remember that to these delusional people, criticizing their beliefs is violence, calling them out on their BS should be a crime, and telling them "NO." is a "death threat." Wokeism should be classified as a mental illness.
Right? And it’s like there are always one or two weirdos that are going to say unhinged things, but I haven’t seen a single example of a death threat, yet they keep claiming it. It’s such an easy, lazy, repugnant lie
Dude, that is so sad, man. The actress is beautiful irl. I honestly don't understand why any of these character model actresses don't sue SBI and the game studios already! That is defamation of character in my opinion.
Please, stop calling these people journalists. They're bloggers, pretending to be journalists. A journalist looks at both sides of an argument, presents the facts, draws logical conclusions, and then gets off the stage. The people writing these articles are just editorializing their point of view, like any narrow- minded blogger might, leaving out important information and confirming their biases--only, these people have been paid to put their biases on display, for a mainstream media outlet that hasn't done real journalism in several years. This is NOT journalism in the traditional sense. This is "spin". It's just some young person's idea of what "writing" and investigation is, and it fails on every count. Everyone needs to ask themselves: Why have none of the people representing the "harassment campaign" been interviewed? What are these paid "spin doctors" afraid of?
When did gaming companies decide that losing customers and revenue was the trendy thing to do? It's like they have a meeting and it goes something like, "Sweet Baby? Oh YES! They make sure profits plummet, so let's hop right on that flushing money bandwagon!"
The company increases their diversity score and thus receive preferential ESG ratings which makes their company more desirable and safe to investors. I’m not even kidding lol
@@starkai6806 that sounds completely backward. So companies like Blackrock throw money at them for embracing ESG and it makes up for the game losing money...? And so Blackrock flushes the money. Not smart, especially when billions in funding is currently being pulled out of Blackrock, i.e. Texas pulling 8.2 billion from them.
@@starkai6806Exactly. It's everywhere. I work in retail and my company does the same thing, except that the diversity groups do jack all and only exist to trick the esg people. At least we're past the days when companies forced their employees into white guilt seminars. *shiver* If you think this stuff is bad, imagine having to sit in a timeshare where people constantly yell in your face telling you you're evil for existing, just so you don't get fired.
The SBI Detected tool can be used to find games they are involved with if you ARE interested in them, just as much as if your ARENT interested in them. This is a MAJOR fact they CHOOSE to overlook. Never have I been subjected to such ignorance or hypocrisy from a group of COMPLETELY terrible people. They disgust me, truly.
Your right, I’ve been saying if they were truly proud of the work they’ve done a LIST OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION would have been of no concern to them. But they saw it as “harassment” which leads me to believe even SBI knows the games they work on are garbage
This is literally a case of: "Here's my online resume." "I see. These are some pretty big titles." "THAT'S RACISMUS MISOGYNISMUS BIGOTROLOGY AND IS ACTIVELY HARMFUL TO THE MARGARINALIZED COMMUNISMUSITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
@@Dong-ChanLee the founder of SBI explains why its got the symbol basically when she likens male and mostly white gamers in her words to a picky baby that loves what products they've been fed for decades until companies like SBI add the identity politics agenda bs into the mix so the "picky baby" is like nah that's gross which is why all these companies are named ghost baby or sweet baby, they're saying they're trying to kill off the picky baby customers aka white male gamers and create sweet babies who love the woke agenda pushing in their games
So glad we're finally fighting back against this. Finding games worth spending money on has been difficult for a while. Helldivers 2 came in clutch. Edit: just realized I commented twice by accident😭
Palworld too! The clowning on Americans from the game devs was hilarious. "Americans like guns so we added them." "Americans like ugly characters so we added that option" lol.
@@Jumoana The language in the video you shared in the #meme-youtube channel was harmful to some of our members. You need to apologize. I refused to apologize, so they said I would have to leave. I refused to leave so they kicked me. The real irony being most of them played the game smh.
@@apanickedseagulllol “harmful.” I’m so sick of that word being misused. It’s fine to offend people, and to be offended. It’s a normal aspect to a functional democracy. You have to accept that you won’t like some stuff. Quid pro quo 🤷🏽♀️ I fear some of these people can’t even Society properly
The fact that she even admitted to lying in leaked DMs just shows the character of these people. I'm ready to say forget all AAA games. I'm dreading when they come for Warhammer 40K, because Sisters are gonna have a 90% win rate if these people get to influence the rules and lore.
Absolutely! Over the last 10-15 years, the quality of games released by AAA studious has gotten progessively...less. Emphasis on graphics and "diversity" rather than story and depth. The characters are boring, the stories are pandering and the gameplay loop is dependant on cosmetics and microtransactions. Whereas the games that I adore and play many hours over have come from Independant studios. Ori and the Blind Forest, Stardew Valley, Subnautica, Terraria, Helldivers II, all smaller studios that deliver a finished, quality product.
A bit newer to 40k, but I don't really see this BS seeping in to it? I hope not at least. Since I gave up on star wars and became a fan of 40k. Would be a shame if it turned to crap
They are projecting. They are being fired literally in the thousands, their platforms are going out of business. They are irrelevant and they won't even be a part of the real conversations anymore. Its time to stop talking about them.
Screw these "journalists". Their existence is allready miserable as is. What Gamergate 2 needs to do is to hit the actual game devs in their wallets so they would understand once and for all: "KEEP FORCED NARRATIVES AWAY FROM OUR GAMES." and "STOP HIRING COMMUNIST COMMMITEES TO WRITE STORIES FOR GAMES." What we need to give them is the Bud Light treatment.
Hey bro. We appreciate u, and those like u doing your thing as a "watchman on the wall." Keep up the good work! Fellow gamers, may we continue 2 vote with our wallets & draw more positive attention to the games that deserve it. But also, like Endymion said, let's be sure 2 never stoop 2 the levels of these weirdos tryin 2 push their agenda. Give them no room, give them no quarter, and give them no ammunition 2 throw back. And for those who interact with them, never treat them how they treat u. Treat them how u WISH they were wise enough to treat u.
Ash Parrish ENTIRE message she left on the Discord is SOO incredibly hypocritical. Literally EVERYTHING she said can and should be flipped onto her and the groups that she defends because THAT is the truth, and the narrative they push is the FURTHEST from the truth something can be.
okay, AIUI, this is an old fascist (Dictatorship) tactic. Accuse your enemies of your crimes. The effect is temporary psychological paralysis, while you sort out the story. That takes effort, until you realise you are dealing with known liars (omissions etc)
These type ALWAYS project. That is their main tactic. They have other tactic, but this "accuse your enemies of what you are doing" is the first line of defence.
I never thought that the word "backlog" would be so important in today's modern gaming sphere, the are a lot of games from the past I'd rather play than new ones.
Game developers forgot what video games are. They are either a test of skill or a power fantasy to escape from reality. They are not supposed to be the same as a trip to Walmart. Nobody tries to escape to the "special" place where all the people are ugly. Not men, not women.
No, that's not what video games are, not to developers, and never has been. To developers, TRUE game developers, to develop a game is the achievement of a life dream, to take your program, story, and characters, and breathe life into them, see them move and interact with the environment you create, and then have people play that game, and enjoy or hate it. The game doesn't belong to the customers, but to the ones who made it, and nobody should have the power to dictate what someone can do with the game they are making, if the creator wants a particular political topic in the game, that's their prerogative.
@@zetsuvideos6264 that may be true to a indie game, but not an AAA game. And if you are an indie game developer but need a narrative consultant company to change your story then what does your life long dream even worth.
@@zetsuvideos6264 and yet, consumers still have any and every right to support or condemn that artistic interpretation. You are not entitled to your art being successful just because you put work into it. If people don't like it, they won't buy it.
@@adam-k AAA games are garbage, there is no passion there to begin with, just mass produced bullshit like Disney or Walmart created to satiate the idiotic masses, theres no true development being done there. And having the dream of game development doesn't necessarily mean you have the prowess at storytelling, some people need other people's creative abilities to further that goal, and that's their dilemma to face, but it doesnt detract from what their dreams are.
The sweet baby inc detected curated list is like the number 4 or 5 most followed list in steam history last time I checked and still gaining followers so this is not a small movement we are the majority here
@@knowledgeseeker4614 maga is shit too, but when you have to choose anything against the brain rot of marxism, maga it is, sweet red wave of victory of the right conservative movement all over the world !
It's really very sad and kind of surreal that they've let this happen but yeah, it's really just bitter, jealous people who are mad that THEY aren't good-looking and this is their tantum.
they stopped to ban and remove posts. they probably decided now to fish for offensive comments (and fake weirdos already post ugly things, I've been told I have to be r-ed, out of the blue). I haven't seen such unhinged comments, they're probably planting bogus actors to paint gamers evil again. I've seen mod removed one very offensive thread from woke OP (who went postal with death threats and slurs) so mods are there but they do not ban now.
Because casting a beautiful stunner, as Yen is supposed to be, would be catering to the "male gaze" and they hate, hate, HATE anything that might be catering to men.
All we want it is Video games that have good writing and be fun, but according to SBI and gaming "journalists", we are the bigots for not wanting crappy writing
gaming journalism died with the printed gaming magazines, all that is left are clickbait writers, even when an article has a core of truth it gets snowed under in popups, adds and some screamy title that usually says f all about anything.
@@AlakablamIn truth, the old gaming magazines were trash, too. The scoring was entirely skewed and they only featured big name titles. Reading entries about that one volleyball series was hilarious.
True, id read multiple ones to form an opinion, but it was all we had, and at least they were reviewing games with a lot of humor (here in NL we had power unlimited, too funny) and not playing at being "actual" journalists @@ca_kay
Can we get a little more footage of that Korean game? Kidding, but good reporting. those DMs are damning as to what the journalist's actual agenda is. Thanks Endy for always holding their feet to the fire.
Vindictus Defying Fate has a Steam page with good footage. It's based on an MMO of the same name, one of my favorite games. Both are amazing hack n slash games like Elden Ring. Tbh the b physics aren't to my liking, I hope there's a toggle for that. It's a bit much... The MMO didn't do it that bad.
At this point, I'm a firm believer that sweet baby inc only gets involved when someone in a management position (or as an investor) really hates their writer(s). So much so, that they willingly bring down a whole company out of pettiness, then bail.
The glory of GG1 was that people held the media to the minimal standards it should have, though it utimately failed; the mission of GG2 must be the purging all overt corruption and despotism from the surface. We will never really drain the swamp, but they've grown too bold, such that they can actually impact our entertainment
Game urinalism is already dead regardless of any desperate effort to manufacture a gamergate 2 controversy to generate clicks. Even random youtubers are more relevant than kotaku and the like.
Just like the age rating, the symbol for alphabetical content should be included in the mandatory markings of games. Of course, in order to protect the hypersensitive and undecided, so that they know in which games they are represented.
SBI: Blackrock! What does the Scouter say about the gamers' power level? Blackrock: IT'S....one thousand six. SBI: wait, really? Blackrock: Yup. Kick their asses, Sweet Baby! SBI: YAY! *gets obliterated*
What the industry needs to understand is that we don't hate woke games, we hate having beloved IP's being hijacked by woke ideals. Make as many woke games as you want and we will just not play them.
Another SBI woke garbage! That game is going to be another woke forspoken 2.0. I am not spending a dime on any woke garbage that these studios try to push down my throat! They said we are a small sad group! We'll show these woke developers how wrong they are! Keep the pressure.!
NGL, some people are sick and unstable so it wouldn't surprise me, but honestly, i swear this gets tossed around too much nowadays and i do wonder if it's true 90% of the cases. Not to mention, can't you just report that person on that platform and get them banned for harassment with intent to injure? Yeah, i'm with you on this one
Reminder that in gamergate 1 this is also their go to excuse but there weren't even any evidence, even when the FBI investigated (even talked to Anita Sark) they found out there's none.
ENDYMION, I cannot thank you enough for the work that you are doing here. Your courage and the time you spend researching and putting these videos together to make the community aware of the rot that is infesting this industry is inspiring. Please stay encouraged and keep going brother. You are on the side of truth here.
If conservatives had had a support group called "So you've been cancelled, what now?" They'd have been mocked relentlessly. It's almost sad how pathetic this really is. These are people who need serious help. IDK if it's intense therapy or padded rooms but dear gawd this is crazy
I personally don't have any issues with the Unknown 9 game because it's an original IP that no one cares about. If the publisher wants to give Sweet Baby the creative reins over a new IP, they're going to suffer if the game fails.
She means she needs to remember what she lied about later, which she won’t. Just watch. Then it’ll get called out and she’ll say she’s being “attacked”.
Why is a consulting firm so prissy about people boycotting their projects? Any other form of a similar type company would just say. We only consult when companies come to us. Yet they are so ashamed that they are literally squealing like a trapped animal.
You know, there was a time i could get home from a long day, unwind and go on an epic adventure to slay mighty dragons, or travel the galaxy and meet new people. Now, it feels like every game i load tells me I'm a bad person. What the hell......
The one good thing about woke ideology infecting video games is that it is saving me lots of money. I saved a huge amount of money due to avoiding games such as Spiderman, TLOU, Horizon, Starfield, etc.
nah but seriously we have a case, and we can say that they are defaming all gamers and making extreme accusations and that all affected gamers deserve compensation.
The moral of the story is: Stop buying products from people who openly hate you. SBI is not the only one to take notice of, ALL "consulting agencies" should be taken notice of and all of them named and their works catalogued just the same as SBI Detected.
They always omit the fact that SBI was the one who started this harassment campaign. The steam group only listed the games SBI is involved... games that are listed in their page... Now they're playing the victim.
I feel like I'm watching Robocop 2 in all of this. They put so many rules and information about things that Robocop should or should not do into his programming that he can't even function right. He becomes little more than a walking automaton that couldn't do his job. Eventually, once he erases all of it, he can become a police officer and fight crime again. Until the reset button is pressed, you're just watching a lot of the industry caving in on itself.
Gotta love how much they want to defend SBI while simultaneously covering up any project they're a part of. They're committing marketing suicide doing this and any company who has the balls to tell them no might actually get some galvanized weight of support seeing how much of a sham this whole defense coverup is. Even if not, the AAA gaming industry is on a path of self destruction it cannot escape from.
They go with the old saying that any pr is good pr, gaming does not follow that rule, bad pr will make you go broke and good pr will make people buy your game.
@@nieildilsonsouza4747 And running nothing but slander 24/7 will just paint an image of dishonesty. Especially since they're defending people who lash out by calling people who just want to not play their weird games as the worst scum of the planet.
@@demod2080 These people definitely have never played a game with other people before. Best way to piss off gamers is to call them dumb, stupid, or belittle them. Gamers also have long memories....
I literally bought Palworld BECAUSE of the woke outrage lmao. And it turned out to be super fun. I'm at the point where I'll buy anything that's marketed as anti woke just to support them.
Its very "mask off" when they openly admit that the way to make a character "more human" is to make them black. Sends a pretty clear message that they don't think of Caucasians as human beings at all.
My backlog is SO huge right now, that Gamer Gate 2 could last another 5 years and I'll still be ok. Hopefully it won't last that long, but I'm perfectly fine not buying another game for the next 5 years.
For REAL! And stuff like Helldivers is still coming out. Wtf would I care about all these DEI games? They have to sell it to ME😂. I don't need them, they need me. They're in no position to wag their finger or lecture me. I'll just walk away.
All the games on the list are marked "not recommended", a rating that has nothing to do with the game's perceived quality. Says who? There's a perceived point that blemishes a game's perceived quality and desirability hence the reason why the game(s) gets recommended or not. I'll use one example: BLIZZARD Actions happening at the company: Remember when Starcraft 2 was "not recommended", player based dropped massively? It had nothing to do with Starcraft 2 but due to all the things exposed at Blizzard. Actions committed by just ONE employee's bad actions: Remember when Overwatch’s Jesse McCree was renamed to remove an employee's affixes? Because anything Blizzard got "not recommended" for a month. Even the point of game X isn't even out yet doesn't stand water: Remember when Overwatch 2 became the lowest "not recommended" when Overwatch 2 reason to existence, it's PVE was announced abandonned? So it's fair game to do it to Blizzard, Tyson, Bud Light or even just talk about their bad deeds, like Nestle. Anyone else BUT company's like Sweet Baby Inc. A company that: That admits having racist hiring practices(Anti-white)... Who's employee's are overtly anti-white racists even the white co-founder... Who only want to write and work non-white story's because... Sure, there's no "reasons" to "not recommended" games that Sweet Baby Inc worked on.
I think I know the answer for final question - movie industry proved with all those recent flops that going against customers and pushing their 'only right' ideology is not only moraly bankrupt, but doesn't pay their bills (even Black Rock can't help in the long run).
I really wish game journalists on TH-cam and beyond would mention the TH-camr Cyael. He's been the driving force even before Sweet Baby Inc came around. He's blown the whistle on many of their tactics and stuff like ESG and DEI. You guys really should give him credit while mentioning all involved. Chris Kindred called him about by name first before going after everyone else. The man does great work and is demonotized all across the board.
As always, vote with your wallets everyone. A studio can only survive so many flops before they have to close up shop. Warner Bros can obviously afford it, but the smaller gaming companies definitely can't.
I remember seeing Gears of Wars 5 and wanting to buy it. But after watching a playthrough, something didnt sit right with me. The focus on making the female chick the main hero and kicking the ACTUAL main characters aside didn't sit right with me. Fast forward a few years, I find out CryBabyInc. had their disgusting hands involved in it. Made alot of sense. Glad I didn't buy the game and I loved the Gears series. Frigging shame
Almost every big western game is infected. Even Baldur's gate 3 you're forced to play with 3 feminist main characters... 2 angry women. 1 she hulk. Men literally aren't allowed to have any normal romance options in western RPGs anymore.
@@spoofs974 Yeah it's normally done realistically like their flaws are obvious and acknowledged by the rest of the characters in the story. Really big difference. It's usually relatable and entertaining. When I consume western media I feel gross afterwards cus it's just full of the "MEN BAD" message. And it's so deeply ingrained you can't point to a single thing, it's everywhere now. When I played Baldur's Gate 3 I couldn't get immersed in the world at all because it felt like I was playing with a cast of modern American twitter teenagers. (I'm British so it's even more jarring for me). I want to escape the real world when I play a fantasy RPG but all I can think of when I play it is the American politics/ideology that it represents. I don't feel like that when I read manga or watch anime, games. etc.
@@karloexeYeah I never played or bought any of the games after GoW 3. Xbox 360 era was a golden age for games. Oblivion, Skyrim, Halo 3, GoW. PC was stacked as well. World of warcraft: wotlk and TBC when Blizzard was still putting out bangers. PC has always been stacked with steam and indie devs though. Too many good games to list lol. Steam is so over saturated with good indie games theres no reason to ever buy tripple A. I haven't bought any Tripple A games since the 360 era as I felt they were over priced and low quality even before all the woke stuff started happening.
This is hilarious. I KNEW there'd be a sequel to Gamer Gate, eventually. I also knew the enemy we face aren't good at coming up with fresh tactics, and would try to reuse the ammunition they spent last time, to FAR less effect. This time, people are fed up with their crap and are being a lot more vocal than last time. The MSM have lost the voice they once had.
these people can do whatever they want with new IPs that they create themselves and everything will be fine. co-opting and completely ruining existing IPs that people actually liked is the real problem
Nichegamers seems one of the few to stick to old time standards, as they're one of the few who accurately reported that SBI employees kicked off the current mess. All the others are in full spin control mode and leaving out key information. 🤷♂️
Hopefully this is sign that companies will be more hesitant when it comes to hiring Sweet Baby Inc for anything. I love this Medium and I hate seeing it being dragged through the dirt like this but one can hope. and thanks Endymion for still keeping this in the light.
The very fact intelligence agencies even know this happening shows just how subverted these institutions are. The fact they are choosing to get involved shows just how unconstitutional they are and how badly they need to be completely reformed.
After the DMS part, I was like: -" ummm, do these people read what they write? They are deadass saying the silent part out loud and proud, and they think that they can get away with it?"
People need to understand that we are dealing with ideologues. As ideologues they have long ago latched onto what they call "our truth". They have a catch phrase "there is no truth but power". To them, anything that gains them more power is effectively the truth. They will make arguments that "in the larger context I'm right so therefore I will ignore this one minor anecdote where I'm wrong. But you can pick any anecdote from any movement they are involved with and in every case they are wrong and yet always insisting on a larger truth being on their side. That larger truth doesn't exist, it's nothing but an abstract of their ideology to justify their attacks against people.
Something in one of your lastest videos really resonated with me. I like how when you talked about helldivers and talked about religion in video games, and about keeping the real world out of things. I immediately thought of FFX, and would you believe it, so did you!!
The way they defined “gamergate” is wild and disgusting, and 100% the problem. For those who don’t know, GamerGate wasn’t the audience backlash and outcry, those were the whistleblowers. GamerGate was a group of individuals (Quinn, most notably) conspiring with and even dating/sleeping with journalists who then gave favorable promotion and reviews to games and content they were working on (much of which raked in tons of money but never delivered the actual content). The ones crying foul were the perpetrators, hence “Gamergate” as a reference to the Watergate conspiracy. I don’t condone the harassment that followed, two wrongs don’t make a right. But the rewriting/obscuring of history is insane and the constant narrative that this was a sexist harassment campaign and not an extreme pushback against grifters is just… it’s just factually wrong. Anyone who was there can vouch for that.
If anything this totally IS GamerGate 2 because once again they’re rewriting the narrative, omitting the actual facts and catalysts, and slapping the people who know the very easily researched and documented truth as harassers.
Hear, hear! I tell this to people all the time. Gamergate was the journalism stuff. The flame wars happened after by Tumblr warriors that came in out of nowhere. But in truth, they were prowling tons of sites and forums trying to find places to flame. Back then we called them SJWs. Almost entirely entitled white women trying to champion people who didn't ask them to. Then BLM happened and you had black women acting the same way while kicking the white women out. In the end, though, it's still the same old story. Except that instead of finding marginalized groups to defend, the current ones claim they are the marginalized groups. At the end of the day, flaming is still bad. Doesn't matter who is doing it. I just hope GG2 will be the deluge and not a bigger inferno.

In the great words of Tyler the creator "eat a dick" that's how i feel about sweet baby inc lol
Appearantlly thanks to Sweet Baby and Gamergate 2.0 viral, they think gamers are terrorist and a danger to whole western society and government.
Never feed the bigots.
Rejection is not harassment.
Refusal to participate is not harassment.
Making them go broke for being woke is not harassment.
Harassment is constantly shoving your agenda and narrative down my throat.
The leftists are always the biggest hypocrites.
Harassment is also trying to get other people to go after someone just for disagreeing with them which is what they definitely tried to do to 'Sweet Baby Detected'.
Try not to burn anything down with all that fire your spitting. 🤣
Appropriating inaccurate connotations of words that definitively do not apply to the topic at hand is like 90% of lefty political arguments nowadays lmao
well said
Employees of sweet baby are only acting like this because behind the scenes the situation must be 10x worse then what we're seeing. Good.
They hate me anyways so whatever
Considering the FIB is involved your right
Them waking up in a cold sweat at night cause they know they'll have a nice hole in their resume after trying to apply for a new job when sweet baby goes belly up, or just never get to work in the industry again, cause which company will risk burning their reputation... that must suck ass... 🥲
Just remember that anger is the 2nd stage of grief and they have a long way to go before they hit acceptance my friend.
Imagine you are the head of a studio. You are forced to deal with a DEI house mucking about your project because that's how financing happens. Sucks but that's how it is for now. Now imagine you're watching SBI handle this situation like toddlers, worse still, they created the problem in the first place. Putting all the politics aside, SBI are so damn unprofessional, this is going to sink them no matter what. If I'm the head of the studio, I'm going to hold my nose and pick a DEI merchant whose slime trail is nowhere near SBI.
These people have never been journalists, they were always just activists.
how can you tell the difference in the modern day - are there any real journalists left ?
@@rrmackaythey’re called bigots now
@@rrmackay The real journalists have jobs that aren't associated with gaming.
Lets not forget that they are pushed forward by the like of Blackrock, otherwise they would not have the power to do anything.
@kagetsuki23 I never heard of Blackrock until the great Gamestop stock wars of 2020. Now it seems Blackerock is involved in everything!! Stock market, housing crisis, rent crisis, Media journalism and now gaming.
Blackrock is starting to sound like Hydra!
Gamer Gate was a movement started by gamers as a push for ethics in games journalism. It was started after it came to light that a developer, Zoe Quinn, slept her way to good reviews with two games journalists.
The narrative was hijacked by known grifter, Anita Sarkeesian, into claiming GamerGate was a misogynistic harassment campaign, even though ot was proven that several of the "dox" attempts provided no substantial info and were actually done by Quinn herself.
The majority of the public allowed themselves to be duped by this false narrative, so it makes me happy that more people are seeing this grift for what it is.
GamerGate failed, maybe 2.0 will finally succeed in holding journalists and companies like SBI accountable.
I find all this drama eye-rolly, but that much is true, though to be fair it was indeed co-opted by sexists and racists, but it was never an organized force anyway and it's incredibly disgenerous to cherrypick the people you swear embodies every single damn person with a complaint. The saddest part of all was the hijacking of the wikipedia article using the very same journalists people had issue with who all left out the negatives and mistakes of their side, just like now, and refused to accept even a little responsability/accountability, so many people really do think it was just a random out of the blue troll run by kiwi farms and/or 4chan or adjacent groups. Don't really know a better out-in-the-open example of why controlled information is dangerous, but there you go.
The fact that this company had ties to the department of defense .money wise and was made to make art and videogames worse on purpose while labeling anyone who spoke out against were made to be pariahs.
5 Guys Burger and Fries.
At the end of the day, it's money saved for me. I will never give them a red cent and that is legitimately the most damaging thing I can do. So I will keep doing it, knowing that I have missed out on absolutely nothing of value whatsoever while passively saving gaming. Sounds great to me.
Don’t buy the games if you find out any of these psychos are involved.
It literally is that easy.
its easier than that. just wait for a trusted reviewer (TH-cam has a bunch of good ones) to give their opinion. They cannot hide their bad quality and politics. while their bad quality is a side effect, the politics are their goal, so hiding their crap is impossible.
@@ttrev007It’s like movies these days. Drinker takes the hits so we don’t have to, God bless him.

See thats the problem I have. They arent really woke. They trivialize discrimination,
they reward ethnicity over ethic and hardwork, they attack instead of having conversation and WORST their new and improve grounded characters are walking stereotypes and tokenism encarnated.

Remember these people HATE you and me. Doesn’t matter our skin color or gender. They hate gamers. So point and laugh at them and NEVER give them money.
So continue on as I have the last 10 years. Copy that.
No, trust me, race does matter to them. They refer to white people, including themselves/some people on their team as "settlers." In their view, white people are colonizers/land thieves, and it's not possible to be racist to them - one of their team also had "You can't be racist to white people" plastered on her Twitter profile theme. They want less straight and white people in games. Racism (which just means prejudice towards or discrimination towards another race) has been redefined by them as racial superiority by those in power - this also likely means they consider white people racist by nature, even if you or your family had no part in slavery.
If you say race has no part in it, you are just in denial.
They’ve by default called my mum a whiny alt right basement dwelling picky baby. And all the other gameplaying folk in the over 50s vilage where I live. I told mum about all this today. She’s progressive but not stupid, and it was making her lip curl and call these fools out for what they are. She’s been a gamer for the majority of my 50+years and she reckons gaming was doing fine with diversity etc all on it’s own, and it doesn’t need rl ideologies tacked onto game environments.
So, that’s the opinion of a 73yo Aussie lady who spent covid building her own house, and who has been in the same tabletop gang for 20 odd years. And who’s current go-to game is Elder Scrolls.
Gamers are not a monolith.
@@creatrixZBD She's a "progressive" (She’s been a gamer for the majority of my "50+" years , how old is she ? ) , no, the Overton window gone too far-left, she's probably a "far-right" by today's standards. Maybe she's just a classical liberal, like most of us are, if she cringed at this, she still has morals, so she can't "left" anymore.
Anything that's not basically marxism or far-left is going to be denounced as "far-right" or even n@z1, just for no agreeing with the insanity of the left, I mean, the far-left (there's no left anymore, classical liberalism is DEAD)
oh "73yo Aussie lady" That explains it.
I wish we could go back to simpler times. (I say that, but I'm only 36, but I am a progressive, a liberal, I'm just out a more "conservative" one, like your mom probably is)
I hope they realize that purchasing video games is a voluntary act. We are walking away.
Just let the "modern audience" buy their Unknown 9 game. Wish them the best with their 1,000 sales. Cheers!
It's all theirs
One problem though. If games like that succeed, other companies will see it. If games like that earn alot of money, other companies would want to copy it.
Dont hold your breath
I feel like we should gather up, buy a lot of copies and refund them at the same moment lmfao, that would be glorious.
I didn't even know this game exists until today
“A deluge of death threats”
Yet no evidence provided anywhere.
More like they have a delusion of death threats.
"My source is that I made it the f@#$ up"- Senator Memestrong
You have to remember that to these delusional people, criticizing their beliefs is violence, calling them out on their BS should be a crime, and telling them "NO." is a "death threat." Wokeism should be classified as a mental illness.
Right? And it’s like there are always one or two weirdos that are going to say unhinged things, but I haven’t seen a single example of a death threat, yet they keep claiming it. It’s such an easy, lazy, repugnant lie
In their eyes, criticism = death threats.
'We're the victims, poor us journalists and game developers'
Makes me want to throw up.
When Everyone's a Victim no one is
The girl from Unknown 9 got the Mary Jane treatment lmao.
They actually made both her eyes go in different directions & thought that was okay for a trailer, I just don’t get it
Dude, that is so sad, man. The actress is beautiful irl. I honestly don't understand why any of these character model actresses don't sue SBI and the game studios already!
That is defamation of character in my opinion.

@@skyblazeXIIIyou think they will be successful? I am sure they are aware the model won't completely look like them
Although she was wrongly cast as Yennefer in the Witcher live action, she's still very attractive. A shame she got the Fable treatment.
Please, stop calling these people journalists. They're bloggers, pretending to be journalists. A journalist looks at both sides of an argument, presents the facts, draws logical conclusions, and then gets off the stage. The people writing these articles are just editorializing their point of view, like any narrow- minded blogger might, leaving out important information and confirming their biases--only, these people have been paid to put their biases on display, for a mainstream media outlet that hasn't done real journalism in several years. This is NOT journalism in the traditional sense. This is "spin". It's just some young person's idea of what "writing" and investigation is, and it fails on every count. Everyone needs to ask themselves: Why have none of the people representing the "harassment campaign" been interviewed? What are these paid "spin doctors" afraid of?
Yeah exactly
They are basically writing a blog post or something lol.
When did gaming companies decide that losing customers and revenue was the trendy thing to do? It's like they have a meeting and it goes something like, "Sweet Baby? Oh YES! They make sure profits plummet, so let's hop right on that flushing money bandwagon!"
The company increases their diversity score and thus receive preferential ESG ratings which makes their company more desirable and safe to investors. I’m not even kidding lol
@@starkai6806 that sounds completely backward. So companies like Blackrock throw money at them for embracing ESG and it makes up for the game losing money...? And so Blackrock flushes the money. Not smart, especially when billions in funding is currently being pulled out of Blackrock, i.e. Texas pulling 8.2 billion from them.
@@starkai6806Exactly. It's everywhere. I work in retail and my company does the same thing, except that the diversity groups do jack all and only exist to trick the esg people.
At least we're past the days when companies forced their employees into white guilt seminars. *shiver* If you think this stuff is bad, imagine having to sit in a timeshare where people constantly yell in your face telling you you're evil for existing, just so you don't get fired.
The SBI Detected tool can be used to find games they are involved with if you ARE interested in them, just as much as if your ARENT interested in them.
This is a MAJOR fact they CHOOSE to overlook. Never have I been subjected to such ignorance or hypocrisy from a group of COMPLETELY terrible people. They disgust me, truly.
Your right, I’ve been saying if they were truly proud of the work they’ve done a LIST OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION would have been of no concern to them. But they saw it as “harassment” which leads me to believe even SBI knows the games they work on are garbage
This is literally a case of:
"Here's my online resume."
"I see. These are some pretty big titles."
"THAT'S RACISMUS MISOGYNISMUS BIGOTROLOGY AND IS ACTIVELY HARMFUL TO THE MARGARINALIZED COMMUNISMUSITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
It's almost intentional...
@@Dong-ChanLee lol to be fair, that doesn’t make it harassment nor does it change the fact it’s a list of publicly available information
@@Dong-ChanLee the founder of SBI explains why its got the symbol basically when she likens male and mostly white gamers in her words to a picky baby that loves what products they've been fed for decades until companies like SBI add the identity politics agenda bs into the mix so the "picky baby" is like nah that's gross which is why all these companies are named ghost baby or sweet baby, they're saying they're trying to kill off the picky baby customers aka white male gamers and create sweet babies who love the woke agenda pushing in their games
So glad we're finally fighting back against this. Finding games worth spending money on has been difficult for a while. Helldivers 2 came in clutch.

The fact that she even admitted to lying in leaked DMs just shows the character of these people. I'm ready to say forget all AAA games. I'm dreading when they come for Warhammer 40K, because Sisters are gonna have a 90% win rate if these people get to influence the rules and lore.
Don’t forget the FIB
That's ok. Warhammer is just stolen lore from Dune anways lol.
Absolutely! Over the last 10-15 years, the quality of games released by AAA studious has gotten progessively...less. Emphasis on graphics and "diversity" rather than story and depth. The characters are boring, the stories are pandering and the gameplay loop is dependant on cosmetics and microtransactions. Whereas the games that I adore and play many hours over have come from Independant studios. Ori and the Blind Forest, Stardew Valley, Subnautica, Terraria, Helldivers II, all smaller studios that deliver a finished, quality product.
A bit newer to 40k, but I don't really see this BS seeping in to it? I hope not at least. Since I gave up on star wars and became a fan of 40k. Would be a shame if it turned to crap
They're legitimately terrible people, but they're on the "right" side of history so it's okay.
Gamergate 2 ain't small at all, it's going to come crashing down on the gaming journalists with the force of a mega tsunami.
They are projecting. They are being fired literally in the thousands, their platforms are going out of business. They are irrelevant and they won't even be a part of the real conversations anymore. Its time to stop talking about them.
The purpose of propaganda is not to change your mind, but to demoralize you by making you feel hopelessly outnumbered. That's the intent here.
Screw these "journalists". Their existence is allready miserable as is.
What Gamergate 2 needs to do is to hit the actual game devs in their wallets so they would understand once and for all:
"KEEP FORCED NARRATIVES AWAY FROM OUR GAMES."
and
"STOP HIRING COMMUNIST COMMMITEES TO WRITE STORIES FOR GAMES."
What we need to give them is the Bud Light treatment.
@fq4580Giving them a quadruple L :D
All that will be left standing will be a ChatGPT bot copy/pasting itself. All of these gaming journo sites are Weekend At Bernie's already😂
"trends that cannot be stopped"
I'd say not buying their games is a start
Hey bro. We appreciate u, and those like u doing your thing as a "watchman on the wall." Keep up the good work! Fellow gamers, may we continue 2 vote with our wallets & draw more positive attention to the games that deserve it. But also, like Endymion said, let's be sure 2 never stoop 2 the levels of these weirdos tryin 2 push their agenda. Give them no room, give them no quarter, and give them no ammunition 2 throw back. And for those who interact with them, never treat them how they treat u. Treat them how u WISH they were wise enough to treat u.
Ash Parrish ENTIRE message she left on the Discord is SOO incredibly hypocritical.
Literally EVERYTHING she said can and should be flipped onto her and the groups that she defends because THAT is the truth, and the narrative they push is the FURTHEST from the truth something can be.
okay, AIUI, this is an old fascist (Dictatorship) tactic.
Accuse your enemies of your crimes.
The effect is temporary psychological paralysis, while you sort out the story.
That takes effort, until you realise you are dealing with known liars (omissions etc)
These type ALWAYS project. That is their main tactic. They have other tactic, but this "accuse your enemies of what you are doing" is the first line of defence.
I never thought that the word "backlog" would be so important in today's modern gaming sphere, the are a lot of games from the past I'd rather play than new ones.

Game developers forgot what video games are. They are either a test of skill or a power fantasy to escape from reality. They are not supposed to be the same as a trip to Walmart. Nobody tries to escape to the "special" place where all the people are ugly. Not men, not women.
No, that's not what video games are, not to developers, and never has been. To developers, TRUE game developers, to develop a game is the achievement of a life dream, to take your program, story, and characters, and breathe life into them, see them move and interact with the environment you create, and then have people play that game, and enjoy or hate it. The game doesn't belong to the customers, but to the ones who made it, and nobody should have the power to dictate what someone can do with the game they are making, if the creator wants a particular political topic in the game, that's their prerogative.
@@zetsuvideos6264 that may be true to a indie game, but not an AAA game. And if you are an indie game developer but need a narrative consultant company to change your story then what does your life long dream even worth.
@@zetsuvideos6264 and yet, consumers still have any and every right to support or condemn that artistic interpretation.
You are not entitled to your art being successful just because you put work into it. If people don't like it, they won't buy it.
@@adam-k AAA games are garbage, there is no passion there to begin with, just mass produced bullshit like Disney or Walmart created to satiate the idiotic masses, theres no true development being done there. And having the dream of game development doesn't necessarily mean you have the prowess at storytelling, some people need other people's creative abilities to further that goal, and that's their dilemma to face, but it doesnt detract from what their dreams are.

You described liberalism just now
The developers going goblin mode and removing any discussions on the unknown 9 page shows how badly they want to keep this hidden.
Imagine working on a game for years and knowing nobody is going to buy it cus it's been exposed as woke lol. Would love to see the meltdown.
they stopped to ban and remove posts. they probably decided now to fish for offensive comments (and fake weirdos already post ugly things, I've been told I have to be r-ed, out of the blue). I haven't seen such unhinged comments, they're probably planting bogus actors to paint gamers evil again. I've seen mod removed one very offensive thread from woke OP (who went postal with death threats and slurs) so mods are there but they do not ban now.
And yet, they will never realize that any action they take, to try and hide the fires, will only make things worse.

How Anya Chalotra got the Yennefer role in The Witcher still baffles me to this day.
DEI/ESG - it’s quite simple - the show runner said as much
forced black and brown people in all white culture
Because casting a beautiful stunner, as Yen is supposed to be, would be catering to the "male gaze" and they hate, hate, HATE anything that might be catering to men.
I don't get this. Anya is good looking... Though I do think she doesn't look anything like Yen from the novels or games.

Can we get a little more footage of that Korean game? Kidding, but good reporting. those DMs are damning as to what the journalist's actual agenda is. Thanks Endy for always holding their feet to the fire.
Vindictus Defying Fate has a Steam page with good footage. It's based on an MMO of the same name, one of my favorite games. Both are amazing hack n slash games like Elden Ring. Tbh the b physics aren't to my liking, I hope there's a toggle for that. It's a bit much... The MMO didn't do it that bad.
At this point, I'm a firm believer that sweet baby inc only gets involved when someone in a management position (or as an investor) really hates their writer(s). So much so, that they willingly bring down a whole company out of pettiness, then bail.
I wish companies would grow some balls and fight against the regime.
They just want that ESG money. They have no balls, morals or principles.
They wouldn't be there if they had.
Where do you think they get their money from?
We live in a capitalist society. Companies ARE the regime.

Game urinalism is already dead regardless of any desperate effort to manufacture a gamergate 2 controversy to generate clicks. Even random youtubers are more relevant than kotaku and the like.
Just like the age rating, the symbol for alphabetical content should be included in the mandatory markings of games.
Of course, in order to protect the hypersensitive and undecided, so that they know in which games they are represented.

ENDYMION, I cannot thank you enough for the work that you are doing here. Your courage and the time you spend researching and putting these videos together to make the community aware of the rot that is infesting this industry is inspiring. Please stay encouraged and keep going brother. You are on the side of truth here.

It's almost sad how pathetic this really is. These are people who need serious help. IDK if it's intense therapy or padded rooms but dear gawd this is crazy
I personally don't have any issues with the Unknown 9 game because it's an original IP that no one cares about. If the publisher wants to give Sweet Baby the creative reins over a new IP, they're going to suffer if the game fails.
Sad but true
And I didnt care about this game but now I care enough to add it into my ignore list.

There is one big difference from the Gamergate in 2014, companies picked their side, and now they are struggling because nobody buys their crap.
Facts
They get no sympathy from me. This is a grave they dug for themselves.
She means she needs to remember what she lied about later, which she won’t. Just watch. Then it’ll get called out and she’ll say she’s being “attacked”.
Should've just stuck to the truth, but I guess that's too much to ask from a journalist these days
Why is a consulting firm so prissy about people boycotting their projects? Any other form of a similar type company would just say. We only consult when companies come to us. Yet they are so ashamed that they are literally squealing like a trapped animal.
You know, there was a time i could get home from a long day, unwind and go on an epic adventure to slay mighty dragons, or travel the galaxy and meet new people. Now, it feels like every game i load tells me I'm a bad person. What the hell......
Endymion, we had to talk about Ricky Berwick's controversy on his post, the wokes have no mercy if you are not in their politics,It's really Sad!
Yeah I saw that. That whole story surrounding dead by daylight is ridiculous
The one good thing about woke ideology infecting video games is that it is saving me lots of money. I saved a huge amount of money due to avoiding games such as Spiderman, TLOU, Horizon, Starfield, etc.
Tlou 1 is a masterpiece.
Horizon 1 was amazing..
@@HANKHILLFORTXGOVERNORmaybe, but tlou2 and horizon 2 suck ass
@@Hecatomyour opinion
@@Hecatomyea. Althought Horizon 2 was ok till dlc. Dont get me wrong fighting horus looks amazing but the story is a DEI wommit
Ash and the verge should be sued for defamation along with all others accusing gamers of being extremists and nazis!
nah but seriously we have a case, and we can say that they are defaming all gamers and making extreme accusations and that all affected gamers deserve compensation.
The moral of the story is: Stop buying products from people who openly hate you. SBI is not the only one to take notice of, ALL "consulting agencies" should be taken notice of and all of them named and their works catalogued just the same as SBI Detected.
They always omit the fact that SBI was the one who started this harassment campaign. The steam group only listed the games SBI is involved... games that are listed in their page... Now they're playing the victim.
I feel like I'm watching Robocop 2 in all of this. They put so many rules and information about things that Robocop should or should not do into his programming that he can't even function right. He becomes little more than a walking automaton that couldn't do his job.
Eventually, once he erases all of it, he can become a police officer and fight crime again. Until the reset button is pressed, you're just watching a lot of the industry caving in on itself.
Good analogy
Gotta love how much they want to defend SBI while simultaneously covering up any project they're a part of. They're committing marketing suicide doing this and any company who has the balls to tell them no might actually get some galvanized weight of support seeing how much of a sham this whole defense coverup is.
Even if not, the AAA gaming industry is on a path of self destruction it cannot escape from.
They go with the old saying that any pr is good pr, gaming does not follow that rule, bad pr will make you go broke and good pr will make people buy your game.
@@nieildilsonsouza4747 And running nothing but slander 24/7 will just paint an image of dishonesty. Especially since they're defending people who lash out by calling people who just want to not play their weird games as the worst scum of the planet.
Typical Marxist subversion.
@@demod2080 These people definitely have never played a game with other people before. Best way to piss off gamers is to call them dumb, stupid, or belittle them. Gamers also have long memories....
I literally bought Palworld BECAUSE of the woke outrage lmao. And it turned out to be super fun.
I'm at the point where I'll buy anything that's marketed as anti woke just to support them.
I can already smell the Dead Baby Stink
Its very "mask off" when they openly admit that the way to make a character "more human" is to make them black. Sends a pretty clear message that they don't think of Caucasians as human beings at all.
Its a lose lose situation to hire any of these narritave people to run any game or brand
My backlog is SO huge right now, that Gamer Gate 2 could last another 5 years and I'll still be ok. Hopefully it won't last that long, but I'm perfectly fine not buying another game for the next 5 years.
For REAL! And stuff like Helldivers is still coming out. Wtf would I care about all these DEI games? They have to sell it to ME😂. I don't need them, they need me. They're in no position to wag their finger or lecture me. I'll just walk away.
Yeah when i realized spring sale was over before I bought anything I didn't really care.
All the games on the list are marked "not recommended", a rating that has nothing to do with the game's perceived quality. Says who? There's a perceived point that blemishes a game's perceived quality and desirability hence the reason why the game(s) gets recommended or not. I'll use one example:
BLIZZARD
Actions happening at the company:
Remember when Starcraft 2 was "not recommended", player based dropped massively? It had nothing to do with Starcraft 2 but due to all the things exposed at Blizzard.
Actions committed by just ONE employee's bad actions:
Remember when Overwatch’s Jesse McCree was renamed to remove an employee's affixes? Because anything Blizzard got "not recommended" for a month.
Even the point of game X isn't even out yet doesn't stand water:
Remember when Overwatch 2 became the lowest "not recommended" when Overwatch 2 reason to existence, it's PVE was announced abandonned?
So it's fair game to do it to Blizzard, Tyson, Bud Light or even just talk about their bad deeds, like Nestle. Anyone else BUT company's like Sweet Baby Inc. A company that:
That admits having racist hiring practices(Anti-white)...
Who's employee's are overtly anti-white racists even the white co-founder...
Who only want to write and work non-white story's because...
Sure, there's no "reasons" to "not recommended" games that Sweet Baby Inc worked on.
I think I know the answer for final question - movie industry proved with all those recent flops that going against customers and pushing their 'only right' ideology is not only moraly bankrupt, but doesn't pay their bills (even Black Rock can't help in the long run).
I really wish game journalists on TH-cam and beyond would mention the TH-camr Cyael. He's been the driving force even before Sweet Baby Inc came around. He's blown the whistle on many of their tactics and stuff like ESG and DEI. You guys really should give him credit while mentioning all involved. Chris Kindred called him about by name first before going after everyone else. The man does great work and is demonotized all across the board.
Also add LegacyKillaHD to that list
The fake news is strong with verge. Wait, didn't they go bankrupt? Or was that vice? Nvm, it was both. 😂😂😂
They turned her back into yennifer before the spell in the witcher series
As always, vote with your wallets everyone. A studio can only survive so many flops before they have to close up shop. Warner Bros can obviously afford it, but the smaller gaming companies definitely can't.
this is why they are "cry-bullies', they antagonize you until you retaliate then they put on the victim act.
I remember seeing Gears of Wars 5 and wanting to buy it. But after watching a playthrough, something didnt sit right with me. The focus on making the female chick the main hero and kicking the ACTUAL main characters aside didn't sit right with me. Fast forward a few years, I find out CryBabyInc. had their disgusting hands involved in it. Made alot of sense. Glad I didn't buy the game and I loved the Gears series. Frigging shame
Almost every big western game is infected. Even Baldur's gate 3 you're forced to play with 3 feminist main characters...
2 angry women.
1 she hulk.
Men literally aren't allowed to have any normal romance options in western RPGs anymore.
@@chickenmadness1732they do that same stuff in jrpgs too its just done in a comedic way
GoW ended in 3 leave it at that
@@spoofs974 Yeah it's normally done realistically like their flaws are obvious and acknowledged by the rest of the characters in the story. Really big difference. It's usually relatable and entertaining.
When I consume western media I feel gross afterwards cus it's just full of the "MEN BAD" message. And it's so deeply ingrained you can't point to a single thing, it's everywhere now.
When I played Baldur's Gate 3 I couldn't get immersed in the world at all because it felt like I was playing with a cast of modern American twitter teenagers. (I'm British so it's even more jarring for me). I want to escape the real world when I play a fantasy RPG but all I can think of when I play it is the American politics/ideology that it represents.
I don't feel like that when I read manga or watch anime, games. etc.
@@karloexeYeah I never played or bought any of the games after GoW 3.
Xbox 360 era was a golden age for games.
Oblivion, Skyrim, Halo 3, GoW.
PC was stacked as well. World of warcraft: wotlk and TBC when Blizzard was still putting out bangers.
PC has always been stacked with steam and indie devs though. Too many good games to list lol.
Steam is so over saturated with good indie games theres no reason to ever buy tripple A. I haven't bought any Tripple A games since the 360 era as I felt they were over priced and low quality even before all the woke stuff started happening.
Less n less people falling for the horseshit, love to see it!
The reason gamers are so difficult for communists to control is due to the second monitor.
A lot of us are very aware of their game.
These are not comies these are f@c!sts
This is hilarious. I KNEW there'd be a sequel to Gamer Gate, eventually. I also knew the enemy we face aren't good at coming up with fresh tactics, and would try to reuse the ammunition they spent last time, to FAR less effect. This time, people are fed up with their crap and are being a lot more vocal than last time. The MSM have lost the voice they once had.
these people can do whatever they want with new IPs that they create themselves and everything will be fine.
co-opting and completely ruining existing IPs that people actually liked is the real problem

I thought gaming journalist exist to report the news to gamers not attack them.
That's a good one, mate!
These journalists are long gone, from when they needed to be good at the game in order to give their 2 cents in gaming magazines...
Nichegamers seems one of the few to stick to old time standards, as they're one of the few who accurately reported that SBI employees kicked off the current mess.
All the others are in full spin control mode and leaving out key information. 🤷♂️
They're not doing their job and now they're getting angry when that choice is coming back to bite them
Love the Tifa clickbait. Keep it up. She deserves all the love.
It’s not about the facts. It’s the narrative. I’m not a journalist I’m a GAMING journalist.
Hopefully this is sign that companies will be more hesitant when it comes to hiring Sweet Baby Inc for anything. I love this Medium and I hate seeing it being dragged through the dirt like this but one can hope. and thanks Endymion for still keeping this in the light.
The very fact intelligence agencies even know this happening shows just how subverted these institutions are.
The fact they are choosing to get involved shows just how unconstitutional they are and how badly they need to be completely reformed.
After the DMS part, I was like: -" ummm, do these people read what they write? They are deadass saying the silent part out loud and proud, and they think that they can get away with it?"
We as gamers have to speak with our wallets show them who there customers really are
I'm going to lose friends because I don't like being told what to think? Nah, my friends aren't like that either.
People need to understand that we are dealing with ideologues. As ideologues they have long ago latched onto what they call "our truth". They have a catch phrase "there is no truth but power". To them, anything that gains them more power is effectively the truth. They will make arguments that "in the larger context I'm right so therefore I will ignore this one minor anecdote where I'm wrong. But you can pick any anecdote from any movement they are involved with and in every case they are wrong and yet always insisting on a larger truth being on their side. That larger truth doesn't exist, it's nothing but an abstract of their ideology to justify their attacks against people.
Adding unknown 9 to the list of game related companies that I am not buying products from in the future.
Something in one of your lastest videos really resonated with me. I like how when you talked about helldivers and talked about religion in video games, and about keeping the real world out of things.
I immediately thought of FFX, and would you believe it, so did you!!
I love hearing you call "Shenanigans". The schadenfreude is overwhelming. Thank You! Keep it coming please and thank you.
The way they defined “gamergate” is wild and disgusting, and 100% the problem.
For those who don’t know, GamerGate wasn’t the audience backlash and outcry, those were the whistleblowers. GamerGate was a group of individuals (Quinn, most notably) conspiring with and even dating/sleeping with journalists who then gave favorable promotion and reviews to games and content they were working on (much of which raked in tons of money but never delivered the actual content). The ones crying foul were the perpetrators, hence “Gamergate” as a reference to the Watergate conspiracy.
I don’t condone the harassment that followed, two wrongs don’t make a right. But the rewriting/obscuring of history is insane and the constant narrative that this was a sexist harassment campaign and not an extreme pushback against grifters is just… it’s just factually wrong. Anyone who was there can vouch for that.
If anything this totally IS GamerGate 2 because once again they’re rewriting the narrative, omitting the actual facts and catalysts, and slapping the people who know the very easily researched and documented truth as harassers.
Hear, hear! I tell this to people all the time. Gamergate was the journalism stuff. The flame wars happened after by Tumblr warriors that came in out of nowhere. But in truth, they were prowling tons of sites and forums trying to find places to flame. Back then we called them SJWs. Almost entirely entitled white women trying to champion people who didn't ask them to.
Then BLM happened and you had black women acting the same way while kicking the white women out. In the end, though, it's still the same old story. Except that instead of finding marginalized groups to defend, the current ones claim they are the marginalized groups.
At the end of the day, flaming is still bad. Doesn't matter who is doing it. I just hope GG2 will be the deluge and not a bigger inferno.
You mean the harassment where Zoed Quinn harassed a guy into suicide
All they had to do was ignore Sweet Baby Inc Detected.
Unknown 9 have picked the worst time ahahahahahaha
Already on my ignore list 😂
boycotting any games involved with sweet baby
Boycott any game from the get go. Make exceptions for games which prove to be worth the money.
