I'm sure this is gonna be the official GG/Voat game de jure since we're raising a stink about it and that's automatically reason to get it because "lol snowflake SJW cucksters"

Oh fuck, what the fuck just happened?
And I was so excited to play the game. Now I'm conflicted, do I separate the game from the author or take it as a whole :(

The lead writer was literally posting IN THIS THREAD and could have told us how it was a different time for them and that he's evolved as a human being.

Instead he's retweeting bigots and fuckwits on twitter who are ratifying his position and denouncing anybody who's upset as being "salty'

So no I'm not inclined to believe a word out of their mouths at this ppoint.

Tim Soret is on gaf? He should address his own views if he actually cared, but he's probably about to make a boatload of money so I imagine he will say nothing instead.
 
.That's a lot of words for "he's a good mate, just take our word for it". I know they have to protect their investment in this, but I don't know who Raw Fury Games are. I do know the public record of Tim Soret's twitter account. Would mean more if it came from him and he sounded contrite. Instead this just feels like a PR fluff piece.

Thats what it is.

Taking away the extraneous words all it says are "hes a good guy trust us. Really trust us. He may have said some things but hes good for it. No really. We all loved gamergate years ago but hes a good guy. Trust us."

Man I was wondering why an indie game announcement thread had so many posts. Damned shame, the aesthetics of the game looked great. I love me some Cyberpunk.

So it's a pass then, oh well.

Man this game was the standout game of interest for me from the Xbox conference, it gave me serious Flashback vibes.

Cannot wait for it.

Thanks guys, i'll stay the hell away from this game now.

Understandable, and I think if there's one thing that gives 'the people' power it's voting with your wallet.

The trailer does seem great, and I do love Sci Fi, and even the statement 'what if feminism' has one might be quite interesting when taken to the extreme, in a next-level-techno environment.

Sometimes smart folks are fucking idiots on twitter but good in their art?

Good news, if it's any indication, you won't be able to separate the creator from it at all!

I realised he probably had French tweets people hadn't caught:

(the tweets he's replying to have been deleted)

1. The only racist I see here creating a racial hierarchy because someone is black or white here is you.

2. The real racists are the degenerates of your kind who see everything through the prism of race and gender.


(The next tweets are in the context of an "anti colonial summer camp" in France for POC which did not welcome the participation of white folk.)

Tim1. Please tell me you're not defending the summer camp, Baptiste.

Baptiste2. I 200% do, and I really dislike seeing everybody up in arms about it. "Oh my god, the oppressed are organising!"

Tim3. Wow, you've totally bought into the rhetoric of oppression and state racism. Disappointing.

(he then suggests Baptiste read an article he links)

Baptiste4. I read it, it's mediocre and shallow. Whether or not it chaffs your butt, institutional racism exists and is still a reality.

Baptiste5. Obviously, people who don't live it scream when say that, which in itself justifies the existence of a camp where speech is protected.

Tim6. That's anti living-together. I miss the 90s when I was a kid and we were all mixed and never thought about colour or religion.


And, re: Zoe Quinn

I don't know if you're aware, but it's a hot topic. Zoe Quinn was sexually harassing men all while crying sexism.

Good stuff, Oxymoron.

That camp discussion... I guess he must've gone through a lot these past 3 yea--10 months.
 
Jesus lol

I don't blame the publisher for not wanting to distance themselves given that this has a lot of potential to make them money, but damn, I love how weak their response was.

Are you French or fluent in French? Just making sure we're not just going off google/bing translate, which could backfire in arguments if they're not fully accurate. Not disrespecting your effort here.

I mean, this could be an interesting situation. We could see just how profitable pandering to the Alt-Right/Gamergate-cult demographic can be.

I mean, the cynic in me notes that not one of the major players in the industry dared to openly condemn GamerGate. I mean, there was David Jaffe's joke he made mocking #GG during the Drawn to Death trailer... Followed by the game disappearing into obscurity immediately after.

@Op, could you include the switch in your title?

So unbelievably fake. That guy's done it before - Putting Switch logos into trailers with no Switch versions confirmed.

....yikes


this is the guy we're trusting to make a sci-fi game with a biting social commentary? rip

Fail out bailed
Has he said much since his Idle Thumbs post in 2014?

EDIT: Ah, and there we are.

Seems more like a jackass than anything honestly.
 
I am somewhat curious about whether the backlash will actually put a dent in their sales.

I suspect that it probably won't, especially given that the game appears to show extremely well.

jfc, the original tweets were already bad enough....


I have a feeling that the game won't be coming to Switch. No way is Nintendo going to want to be partnered with this guy after this

Edit: nvm, doesn't seem official

Really? I don't think of Nintendo as the kind of company to take a stand on social issues like this. Didn't they fire one of their own employees who was targeted by gamergate after some conservative lobby picked up on the issue?

I'd imagine for every person boycotting this, one and a half of the Alt Right are probably buying this just to support one of their number and "stick it to the SJWs".

Oh man...

I played this guy's first title a little while back and thought it was cool, then got pumped when I saw The Last Night on stage, then again when I saw how many replies this thread had.

But yeah... this shit doesn't fly. Can't support this guy with my cash, what a shame.

My fucking god that Zoe Quinn quote. Fucking biting Sci-Fi social commentary my ass. What a whiny loser.
 
Watched the trailer again and man, cant get over how beautiful this game looks but whats the gameplay going to be like? because I have no idea what a cinematic platformer is
 
It's always puzzling why people who say stuff like "actually you're the real racist/sexist/homphobe" are usually not part of the oppressed class! I wonder why that could be lmao

Man I'm legit depressed about all this. I had seen one of his GG tweets back then, but I either didn't connect it to this same guy, or I just totally forgot he latched himself to that shitwagon. In any case, meanwhile I've been in every thread about this game, waiting on bated breath for any new news, new footage, release date, what have you. I even replay the little prototype demo every once in a while to stay hyped. Then right when it gets a huge re-reveal and lots of good press, everybody finally as excited as I am, this stupid shit comes out. And it's so much worse than I ever even knew.

God, what a total bummer.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
The average consumer won't be aware of this stuff, and the GG crowd will support this game in droves

This game would never reach the average consumer though, titles like these live and die based on word of mouth from the core community.

So depending how loud the news gets, it certainly can affect sales.
