Why is Battlefield the poster child for this shit?

Because DICE is located in Sweden.

I try not to follow "conspiracies" too much but I've been seeing lately actual SJW agendas being pushed on game developers.

Why is racism against white men so widely accepted these days? It’s so fucking insane that these SJW psychopaths can get away with their racism.

Most swedes are against historical revisionism. Not much of an excuse. These are just dumb cunts.

Most of the Swedes have been feeded with an insane amount of SJW brainwashing through politics, so I doubt it’s a big problem for them. DICE illustrates perfectly how Denmark and Norway sees the modern Swede today, so sadly it’s “not just DICE”.

Lol, I love how upset this is making people.

I'm having a blast playing the game in the meantime. Made better by the fact that all the regressive righties aren't playing.

You must enjoy the single player then, cus otherwise you would hate how dead the game is. And it’s onky gets worse.

But hey, as long as you can bathe in hate against white people and historical accuracy, then you’ll probably love it.

Again, going from the "conspiracy", it's that white males overwhelmingly support individuality and liberty (conservative) whereas feminism/SJW want more control in peoples lives (liberal/commumism).

So by demonizing white males or replacing them with another racial demographic makes it easier for Feminists/SJW's to control society.

You base the bolded part on, what exactly? I haven't waited more than 15 seconds to get into a game yet. But hey, whatever helps you sleep at night. :)

Best Battlefield since BF3. DICE really nailed it with this one.

This is about muh historical accuracy in m-muh vidya!

Don't make assumptions, buddy. I'm probably whiter than you. Some of us just haven't disappeared so deep up our own asses that this is a big deal to us. It's not like literal history books are being rewritten. Get some perspective.

15 seconds is also a lot compared to many other games. But I understand you don’t know about if it you didn’t play BF1. The game was decent and died after 6 months.

You having to wait so long already shows it’s slowly happening.

But hey as long as you’re happy with your racism simulator then no biggies.

You would never even know what most are thinking or believe anyway. Ruin? Buddy...what hobby do you have where you 100% for sure know of the person's beliefs? Its too much of a unknown and overall irrelevant. If you gamed based on this and wanted to know 100% who believed in what before you bought a game, you might be looking at very little to actually play. Teams are made up of hundreds of people.

So I don't game based on what are in folks minds... irrelevant to my purchase.

Is it fun? That is my only criteria. Not who the publisher is or who they voted for or who they pray to or if they shop at Wal Mart or what they tweet about etc.

Call me crazy, but I play games just for the purpose of fun. Some folks take this stuff too overboard and overact over the smallest most irrelevant junk.

Forgive me if I don’t applaud you for your one track mind.

Buddy. No. Read properly - "never more than". It implies 15s is the longest I've waited and that's been during off-peak times. I'm in central Europe and during peak times I usually get a match almost straight after I press the search button.

Besides, since when is 15s long? I routinely wait longer than 15s for Black Ops 4 or Fortnite. You want to tell me those are dead games too? How about Dota 2, where matchmaking can sometimes take minutes. Such a trashy dead game, that Dota 2.

LOL. Come on man. I get that this whole saga has really made your butt very sore, but resorting to lies? Anyway, I'm off to go play Battlefield 5, so cheers. Best Battlefield since BF3. :D

Have you ever heard of Feminism working in a government that is right wing?

Conservatives want second amendment rights, lower taxes, free speech, a right to secure borders.

Most left wing countries are where you find feminism in control of society. Higher taxes, gun control, support for welfare programs and abortion, limits on speech, affirmative action programs etc.

So yes, conservatives are much more libertarian despite some contradictions (i.e religion and LGBT). But even then, you look at Trump and he doesn't really care about criminalizing someone for being gay.

What a shit industry

Remember, games are not entertainment but propaganda to brainwash you into buying into a certain political worldview.

Spend $60 of your hard earned money to be preached at about Marxism in a game released by a capitalist corporation, sounds like a great time!

There comes a time when this shit goes overboard and ruins your sense of immersion and ruins the fun.

Being preached at by a bunch of wannabe intellectual assholes is not my idea of a good time to spend $60 on.

Looks the slides in that tweet come from this person:

https://www.informatics.uci.edu/explore/faculty-profiles/bonnie-ruberg/

I read through her bio and blog a little bit. It's easy to have a negative kneejerk reaction, but I feel like her overall thesis is different and significantly more layered than what those slides project. I refuse to form my opinions one way or the other based on something that's clearly designed to elicit a specific reaction, as the person who tweeted those slides seems to want.

It's upsetting to know the actual assholes behind this crap, that there are specific people like her trying to ruin this medium.

If only people could learn to stop listening to dipshits like her, do these businesses think they're going to make money by listening to a lunatic like that?

Just look at all this self congratulatory bullshit.

Seriously, look at it, this is where we're at now folks, developers gloating about pissing their own audience off.

This clip sums my thoughts up.

Bioshock is not Marxist.

Once upon a time a game could have political content and not just be simplistic propaganda meant to brainwash you first and entertain you a distant second.

Conservatives value individuality and liberals want to control people's lives? It's a shame how many people are gonna take you seriously even after posting stuff like this.

Once upon a time conservatives may have been the ones who wanted to control everyone's lives, but times have changed and now it's liberals who are the uber control freaks, you really don't notice this? Are you living under a rock?

BioShock has quite a few hot takes on communism and socialism throughout the series but that's beside the point of this thread having a kneejerk reaction to slides taken out of context about story-telling in video games.

What liberal policies are controlling your life?

It's been pointed out earlier in this thread but: the slides you are quoting have nothing to do with dice. So if you boycott dice over that, might as well boycott, I don't know, maybe the US postal system, Mc Donald's, green day, Activision, Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft, who have equally little to do with them?

It's about controlling your mind and whacking you over the head with obvious political content until you submit to their worldview.

I'm boycotting their feckin game and the fact BFV has been a commercial failure put a smile on my face

DICE made the game, who fekin else did?

What does the US postal, Activision ,McDonalds, Nintendo, Microsoft have anything to do with this ?!?!??!?!?

Alright, I misspoke, I said lives, I meant minds, sorry about that, I won't claim to be perfect and not have a slip up here and there, you and whiskeystrike are fair enough to call me out on that.

If you mean control lives as in political policies then no, it's not about that, what I am talking about is social engineering, there is a school of thought in today's world that you can use media to change people's hearts and minds, if you immerse people in enough left wing media they too will think the way the movers and shakers behind this movement want you to think, it's about persuading people over to their political philosophy.

Does that make sense?

And the reason it upsets me is because more often than not it results in subbar content, when your goal is to first and foremost politically prosthelytize to people and entertain them a distant second, then your not getting the value for your hard earned dollar, we are paying first and foremost for entertainment, not a damn TED talk or whatever.

And secondly it's the fact that there's a difference between art and propaganda, art can have political themes but art doesn't start at a destination and work it's way backwards from there like propaganda, art is an exploration of themes, sometimes political but that's usually mixed up in more universal themes about the human condition.

Bioshock is a good example because although it addresses Objectivism it's also making a statement about human nature, you have to have some universal themes mixed in with your politics otherwise you're making propaganda, not telling a story, I want to be told a story.

In the case of Battlefield V it's a perfect example but the revisionist history bent of the game breaks your immersion, you can't pretend when playing it that you are actually in the thick of real life WW2, not when the game blatantly puts a spin on history and presents it as being fact, not even some Inglourious Basterds style alternate reality.

It's a perfect example of virtue signaling and propagandizing mucking up what should have been a simple as shit game, an online WW2 shooter, Battlefield 1942 with better graphics.

As a history buff I want games with real world historical settings to strive for accuracy within reasonable limits, not go whole hog on SJW bullshit.

I hate video gaming in 2018.

Video game developers from the 1980s would probably be making the shocked Pikachu face and laughing after that in disbelief if they saw what consumers and the companies are spewing out of their mouths nowadays.

Take the fucking politics out of video games, I already deal with that crap outside of them as well.
 
Please tell me that isn't real. That can't actually be real, right? That has to be a photoshop. I thought liberals and feminists understood terms like tone-deaf, and bad faith arguments? Because those "hashtags" in the background of that image absolutely qualify as both.

you respect delusional people because they dont back down? thats cool i guess



real events are crazy in their own right. but i guess a story about lesbians is cooler
The biggest gripe I have is not the fact that they include lesbians or women, or black people etc. The gripe I have is that they villainize everyone else because of it. They make the french soldies incompentent, and utterly racist. They made the swedish troups a joke of failure etc. while hey portray the minority characters as groups not only as victims and oopressed but also as superior people by for exmaple letting nazis live while they kill all their black comarades etc.

This is fucking insulting

Are you sure this picture isn't edited? I honestly can't believe how anyone at DICE/EA thought it was a good idea to mock their fans who made them big in the first place. And this just to please a minority of pussy SJWs and feminists who aren't playing video games in the first place and wouldn't buy BFV even if it was the most political correct video game in history. Well the gamer answered by not buying the game, hope that wakes them up.

Fucking despicable. Mocking the lives of brave men and women who fought during the war, literally rewriting major historical effects to push a socio-political agenda, and now they are doubling down on it? So glad I didn't spend a dime on this piece of shit.

It's a video game. Video games are meant to be played for fun, so they want to include more people into the fun. If that's wrong for you, then I feel sorry for you.

FTFY. I grew up for a portion of my life in a communist country. This is classic Marxist indoctrination. Indirect and found in the most inappropriate of places. Which is why to those of us with some life experience, that didn't grow up in a bubble, it is so transparent and quite frankly disgusting. I will not tolerate brazen agenda pushing in my entertainment. It is heartening to see this game and the franchise fail financially. Means there is substantial resistance to this disgusting, mass murdering ideology.

I don't get this.

Why weren't these people interested in these WW2 games in the first place? Because of the white men? They can't have fun with white men characters so they need some other group in order for them to buy these games? And now that white men are excluded and WW2 revised for them, they can finally have fun? Sounds like they cater to racists.

Im not them so I can't answer your questions.

I personally play the game (Origin Premier) because it's fun and I liked the previous Battlefield games. My character in the assault class which is the one I play as the most is a woman. Why? Because I don't care, I haven't bothered changing the gender to a man (Im a man) because I don't care and have no problem with playing as a woman, mostly because I don't care.

Why identity politics in games. Why.

Why not? It's sexy. It's trending. EA is now the equivalent of a middle-aged dude having a mid-life crisis. Gotta show they're still with it.

Just be happy not all characters are wearing rolexes, driving around in sports cars.

You don't have to answer, i'm just wondering why would anyone have an issue with characters who are white men.

Maybe they want to play like someone who looks more like them?

It's like Stan Lee once said about why he focused on social politics and diversity in his comics. People want to feel connected to the one they read, see and play as.

Save your lectuary sentences to where they have a purpose. If it was about equality then there would be uproar everywhere. Because it’s white men then SJW brainwashed people wouldn’t give a f about it.
But that can be a hard eye opener for a feminist selfhating sad individual.
