[@rollerr]

Social engineering and the mass importation of third world populations are intentionally causing a free-fall collapse of standards in every area of life. The people running the show at the top hate traditional Western audiences (read: white people and asians) because they're far more discerning and fundamentally harder to earn a dollar from. There have been studies for years now showing that third world populations are better consumers in the eyes of the elite. They don't have high standards and they're willing to toss money at just about anything. Entertainment media is the least important area this phenomenon is going to affect. So yes, it's going to get much worse unless something changes.

Making a protagonist female is the easiest thing to do. It's a simple decision. So if you want people to buy games with female protagonists, this is what you do. Step 1: design a good game with a good story, good immersion, and most of all, fun game play. Step 2: make the protagonist female. If you focus on the female protagonists part, literally the easiest part, and put the other stuff behind that, all you'll do is make a shit game that nobody wants to play, and you will have failed at your goal. But hey, at least you can just claim that all your critics are sexist, and probably white supremacists.

I tried to ignore the time-topical marketing for NC and enjoy the game but the cutscenes and story just solidified where the dev's heads were at. Funniest thing for me is hearing people gloat about how they bought the game and love it because you just kill nazis. Ok bro, your one of the good guys, we get it.

The game REALLY wants to trick you thinking you are having fun by running around in a large labyrinth place with no enemies and having pointless discussions based on a cringe story.

Mack, I agree with you about the Marvel films. The comedy feels like it fits Guardians of the Galaxy but then they shoved it into Thor: Ragnarock and it's completely out of place. Then in Infinity Wars, they are cracking jokes while half the universe is about to be wiped out - it's so stupid and doesn't fit the comics. BUT, it's what this generation wants - they don't give a shit about immersion, realism, acting or story-telling. I know people who said Infinity Wars is the best film ever made, beating classics like Shawshank, Godfather, Apocalypse Now, etc. People are idiots. Marvel will definitely never change now - they've found a formula they don't need to stray away from. Have a spinning camera over a group of CGI heroes, then make everything else CGI and constantly crack jokes - arseholes are lapping it up.

This year the only two games I have bought to play that released this year so far are Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled and Days Gone Special Edition (because I was able to buy the Edition at a superb price, saving the playtime for later this year though (scheduled for September/October)). I’ve been playing through my backlog this year including Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor, Final Fantasy XV, Nier Automata (all great games (and well earned Platinum trophies)) and intend to play Detroit Become Human (because of PS+, probably wouldn’t have reserved time for it otherwise) and Witcher 3 over the next few months. The only other game I will buy this year from what’s scheduled to release is Death Stranding, practically everything else does not interest me at all.

[@FromGroundToMud]

Captain Marvel is a villainess. Closest character in the MCU to Darth Vader. I'd write 3 paragraphs about it but this is YT (I can do if asked, anyways). Just... don't expect any good female protagonist this decade in any media.

Remember that Luke Skywalker needed a pilot and a teacher and other helpers? He had weaknesses and made human mistakes. The girl in the new movies never left that sand planet was able to fly a spaceship in combat on the first try. So believable.

[@thenachomagic8034]

The way that I rate entertainment (games, movies, books, and shows) is through how much depth that it has. If a game has a narrative focus and less of a focus on gameplay that's fine, but it better have a f****** good narrative which commands your attention. In Youngblood the writing and gameplay is about a shallow as a puddle. It's completely lacking in depth. That's how you should judge any form of entertainment in my opinion.

[@thenachomagic8034]

Tattle Boad I mean the fact that it was coop would have been all that it needed to be. More play time would also be huge as well. The reason why this game fails is because it made a cop-out through ripping off failed loot shooters like Destiny, Anthem, and the Division.

[@lupusprobitas]

I remember hearing a movie reviewer compare a Hollywood movie to a thrill-ride more than a story (I think it was from those guys that do the Half in the Bag review show), and there's some unfortunate truth to that, the same with many modern games. Who cares about immersion and a coherent narrative when you can just throw a bunch of stuff in the viewers face and earn millions... and then regurgitate the same material in the next few sequels.

[@XXveny]

I think Youngblood is an experiment of COOP game (thats why they charge 30€ for it instead of full price). DEVs propably wanted to increase lifespan of the game by adding RPG elements, upgrading, collecting, leveling up, side quests etc. so you can enjoy playing together for longer time. The way they bloated the game is meh, but i kinda understand that. They wanted you to use more weapons? Damn true, in most FPS games you will always stop using some weapons and have like 3 favourites. They wanted you to customize weapons? Why not? They wanted you to enjoy shooting with friends for longer? So they added side missions and other things that created the illusion that the game is large. And to be honest, when done right, i really like these elements in FPS games. Could it be executed better? Naah, i think they are stuck in the middle - could have been worse, should have been better. About main protagonists, i actually think they ARE what would you expect from teen girls who grew up among people rebelling against totalitarian regime - reckless, wannabe-funny, crazy. That is their personality, just deal with it. If they were more serious, THAT would not be immersive for their age and game world context. Armor vs. Ammo strategy is horrible and it is actually the most serious problem i see in this game, i agree with this. I must say it is good to see developers trying new things. Naturally, some people would love to see same concept for decades but games evolve. Sure, there may be some missteps, but i think gaming industry has far more serious problems from extreme greed (lootboxes!) over poor performance and minimal care about product and first (and second... and third...) impression (Fallout 76) to total failure of what audience expect (Anthem - game disliked by everyone, young, old, casuals, hardcore gamers, no matter the genre preferences.). What we may actually see is not the destruction of games, but shift in customer preferences. Not saying people prefer lootboxes or overpriced empty DLCs, hell no :D . Just have a feeling that you cant satisfy 2 or 3 generations with one type of protagonist personality. Btw. speaking about women in games.... with Frau Engel dead, are there some female nazis to kill? Or is this a funny double standart where enemies are 100% men in a game released in times when diversity is such a hot topic :D

I am woman, my twin sister and I started playing games on a Vic20 in the 80s. I have played strategy, RPGs/jrpgs, FPS ny entire life- even multiplayer. I AM ashamed of how women are portrayed in many games these days: ugly, snarky, mean.... Taking nothing serious despite being in heroic roles. I'm not saying every hero has to be the stoic archetype, but this awful non-stop joke cracking, cynical snarky woman lead I am so sick of. I think these 2dimensional too cool, snarky bitter towards everything, Mary Sue, can do no wring women character is just as bad as 2dimensional as a woman character being merely decorative T n' A. It's not «empowering» to me..I just want to considered and treated a person, a real, multifaceted, talented and flawed person who does good but also fails. Just make your female characters the same- *real* people! Let the character exist as a character...not a 2 dimensional statement!

People who call someone a bigot for criticizing young blood don't care about the gaming industry and their mission is to push their political agenda. Gaming journalism is filled with political activists, the kind of people that write articles that label gamers as ists and phobes. I read an article that claimed gay players face constant harassment because of their sexuality, how does one know the sexuality of another online player? It's impossible to know. I know there's players online that say things like "thats gay" or something like that and that is all the evidence journalists need to label all gamers as phobes and ists and than they demand censorship and stricter chatroom regulations which is why xbox and playstation have been implementing rules that change nothing but give the illusion of a safe space so that people who don't even play games can feel like they made a difference.
