A take: Shaun could of talked about feminism and how this objectification affects women, our confidence, self worth etc and if he wanted to talk about cis het white men controlling a hobby then destroying women's mental health would surely be relevant there?
He just avoided any talk about impacts of women or feminism bar one bit about the south Korean model they used but even she had her body and face mutated into some doll with huge tit's so why not mention how that must make her and other women feel? What about how even a beautiful top earning model wasn't good enough and how this game studio and game helps propagate this shit? He hardly tore that open. More just "the frog men misrepresented the situation so hahaha gotcha".
Hardly an ally is he if the perfect opportunity to discuss and educate on the damage this can do to women etc and instead imo side step it. Like if male allies won't help defend feminism or educate other men then what's the point of them?
The whole video was just so male centric. Booooooooooo.
I think this might be a case of "This is already 2 hours long I gotta stop somewhere", though to counter my own point this is Shaun and he usually isn't worried about video length.
Well exactly, I love Shaun but that video had a minimum of 30 minutes of self indulgent gotchas that he could of repurposed and it's like my dude pick a lane, are you a video essayist or a more eloquent badempanada/theKavernacle drama recap youtuber?
If he wants to make a 2 hour video of him running circles around those freaks then I'll watch it and love it but if you're going to talk about the objectification of women in video games, then do the literal bare minimum and talk about feminism, objectification impact acutely and chronically on women and omg put the fucking game studio into actual context.
It's south korea where a huge feminist movement specifically rejecting men over violent misogyny is taking place. Is there nothing he can think to say about that cultural context and how it MIGHT inform the games design?

I cant wait for the pc release so that i can mod out all the woke women and replace them with hot men
it's been kind of fun watching gamergate types become the same thing they rallied against. They're preachy, scold everyone, they're terminally online and complain about games they don't even play. They even make lists of games that are too woke, like some kind of hollywood blacklist. They are the exact mirror image of the stereotypical annoying tumblr SJW from 2014. They have public meltdowns from just seeing "they/them" in a character creator.
I remember back then they would always strawman, saying things like, "If you don't like games intended for horny white guys, why don't you make your own games?" Well now there are games that are more inclusive and cater to different interests and it infuriates the chuds. They despise that there are options now. These guys can't even take their own advice to make their own games because it would just end up being Ethnic Cleansing Simulator 64 or Super Hentai Brothers or whatever.
That is one of the shittiest outfit designs I have ever seen in my life.
19th November? People are still talking about this game? Why?
Oh no my bikini broke
I’ll use the netting from this tennis racket and a leather shoe to fix it

This isn't even hot anymore. There's no time for ogling I'm too busy trying to figure out how and why she even put this on.
The only people who give a single shit about this game are coomers right?
I'm horny as they come but that's not even hot. It looks like an AI generated porn thing but in a completely unbelievable way. I've been to sex parties and sex dungeons I have seen some shit. This is so far outside of anything real it's just absurd.
finding out Grummz real identity makes all his terrible tweets just
I've never heard.of this person, who's their real identity?
a former developer named Mark Kern who worked at blizzard ages ago & has ever since been scamming & grifting on game projects that never see the light of day. oh and freaking out on twitter about the wokes destroying games or whatever. it's very funny to me how he is personally a literal parasite while constantly screeching about almost always imagined slights from the 'woke'
56-year old original WoW dev who apparently was a noxious force in all further attempts at developing video games that involved him and never went anywhere. Also, big anti-woke person on twitter. At least that’s what I gathered from watching the first 30 mins of the skull video on this.
WoW dev
Ew. I know nothing else about this person and already feel the need to say "Fuck that loser."
Anybody wanna give me the rundown? Idk if I care enough about Stellar Blade gooners to watch a 3 hour video about them.
a single French IGN article said the main character from Stellar Blade has a boring design and looks like a sex doll. The article is otherwise positive on the demo, praising the gameplay and graphics. G*mer types took this article as evidence that there's a vast woke conspiracy to destroy all games with big breasted women in skimpy clothes, even though IGN is positive on games like Bayonetta, Baldur's Gate, and Nier: Automata, which are all very horny games featuring sexy women in skimpy clothes. A 56 year old former game dev spends vast amounts of time on twitter stoking up nonsense controversy that essentially boils down to claims of a Marxist conspiracy to replace characters in games that cater to white cis straight male interests with...otherwise normal looking women. The conspiracy theory even claims putting a black woman or a gay man in a game is part of the replacement strategy.
It's basically cultural Marxism and great replacement theory, except somehow even more stupid because it's about video games targeted at horny 15 year old boys. And the people most mad about this non-issue are middle aged men with youtube channels where they complain about the wokes. At one point Shaun shows clips of youtube reviewers complaining about the portrayal of the Greek god Hephaestus in the game Hades 2. The game presents Hephaestus using a wheelchair, which the youtube chuds took to be pandering, despite a disabled Hephaestus being accurate to Greek mythology. Choice quotes like "Why is a GOD in a wheelchair?" There are a few ancient pots showing Hephaestus in a wheelchair, which Shaun shows.
gooners then decided that Stellar Blade is a masterpiece or that it's making their imaginary lefty enemies furious, or something. Most of them probably won't even play it, plus it seems like a derivative mediocre sort of game anyway. I've personally played a bit and it feels like a mix between a clunky Nier: Automata and a clunky Sekiro. It's not the worst game I've ever played, but it's nothing special.
Shaun then goes on to make an interesting point that the panic probably comes from a desire to be the only audience. For a long time games catered to specifically horny white 15 year old boys. Now games have other audiences, or try to cater to other demographics by allowing for pronoun selection, variation in body shape, and female characters that have attributes other than their tits. Chuds interpret this as unacceptable and evidence of a vast conspiracy to destroy video games for...unspecified evil Marxist reasons. Shaun interprets this as insecure white cis straight men fumbling for control.
that's about it

Whats the quote about when those with privilege loose that privilege, it seems like [thing] to them?
I think you mean the "when you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression." I don't know if the quote has a singular source though

Thanks. I couldn't remember it.
Manchildren are mad about their lost innocence and project the blame towards anything that isn't exclusively catered to them. Stellar Blade got some mild pushback for Eve (character in the picture) being blandly designed so it became the big anti-woke game of the hour. Then when it released there was some minor changes to make two costumes slightly less horny for the full release and the manchildren became enraged at this betrayal. The image above would be them being mollified by a sufficiently horny outfit. Grummz is a 56 year old man that spends all his time on twitter chasing the latest outrage.
I learned of this because I occasionally watch the shaun streams and he usually workshops his videos there.
What the fuck is this outfit :( it looks like they sneezed on her pussy :(
