You viewing this on a Samsung monitor perhaps??The yellow sweater girl is cute af
And who made it so every business and public space in America had to be wheelchair accessible? A republican president. I only mention that because people need to step away from the us vs them lie that only liberals care about doing the right thing, or helping people who are disadvantaged. People are just divided when it comes to what the right thing is.
To talk opportunity vs outcome for a moment, a ramp for a wheelchair represents both. The end goal of being able to reach the sidewalk is an equal outcome, but not having any ramp there means there's no equal opportunity. So that's equality, not equity.
The boxes are different because those are resources, and we're talking about taking from one group to provide for another. But the example of the boxes is overly simplified, and leaves a lot of questions unanswered. Who provided the boxes? Was it the stadium? Was it the government? Was it the tall man? If so, does he own all the boxes? Will the boxes be returned to him after the game in case he needs more boxes for a different situation?
Are people of all races able to get into your college? That's equality. Are you bothered by the fact that there are too many of one race and not enough of another according to the surrounding population, so you make it so one group needs to have very high test scores, and another group needs to have much lower test scores, depending on their race? That is equity.
And that sounds nice, until you've found that you've literally been discriminated against because of your race and won't be getting into the school you wanted, because resources are always limited. But in true "that wasn't real socialism" fashion, the people making these rules won't ever have to worry about their kids not getting in, because those will be legacy admissions. Real equity doesn't exist. It's a socialist utopia that can never be due to human nature. The people making the rules will always have more power and give themselves more resources.
I think CD Projekt Red got infected. They tried to pander to the Era crowd by putting in that obnoxious trans flag stuff. Of course it didn't help them.TLOU2 might appear woke on the surface but you get the feeling that it's creators were making the game they want to make rather than rattling off a checklist to appease people. There is a difference. Cyberpunk 2077 and Rockstar games are also very diverse but they never appear as if it is being made from some woke checklist.
More green in iPhone.Please tell me you're trolling it's green for me unless eye sight is fucked and I've been unaware until neogaf diagnosis![]()
Too thin. Need more fat wooden models.I would just put 300 dollar genderless and featureless carved wooden dolls on the shelves to adhere to rules.

Have fun kids! Your parents belong in a mental hospital.
Yes it is. I respect everybody and don't care who you sleep with or if you want your dick removed, let alone what your skin color is. I'm halve black myself. But I absolutely hate having woke shit shoved down my throat especially since it is done in the most unnatural and forced way possible. These people are going to far with their agenda and can go fuck themselves.

I just spent four paragraphs doing so.I'd ask how you're defining equity
Right, arguing over definitions is often a barrier to meaningful discussion. People should generally be on the same page and have an agreed upon starting point before they can understand where their differences are.but honestly definitions always dominate the discourse so I can't be bothered anymore lol
I just spent four paragraphs doing so.
Cool. We can end it here, and this is getting to be a bit of a thread derail anyhow.More of a scenario than an actual definition. You can argue the same scenarios you call equity as just extreme forms of equality. But anyway that's all on this from me
I always get mixed up between equality and equity. For me, whichever one is the merit based where you achieve your own success is my choice.And who made it so every business and public space in America had to be wheelchair accessible?

So am I left or right?
Just the usualWhat is going on here lol
I heard people in USA aren't good with international geography.Puerto Rico identifies as Cuba.
Anyone who watched it, did they consult minorities in New York or was it outside NYC? If outside NY they might as well consulted Gordon Ramsey.
Too short.
It is even worse. It has become a cult or a new religion. Gen Z has been indoctrinated into this insane way of thinking. They are also targeting their kids making woke books and tv shows. The universities have been poisoned and teach this non SENSE to young adults. Look at Mao in China to see where identity politics lead. They have already become authoritarians with cancel culture now removing Trump from the ballots.They don't fight racism. They're adding fuel to the fire.
21st century wokeism is the most sarcastic form of racism. It's like satire.
And people who push this nonsense are either too dumb to understand that or they're making a profit from it.
I dont know what it's like in other countries, but in Canada there is big potential for rewards if you adhere to government contract requirements. If you dont, you cant bid. No shame too. It's public on the federal website.They don't fight racism. They're adding fuel to the fire.

Agreed 1000%.Any dev that prioritizes "inclusion" is not prioritizing making a good game first, which should be their only priority.
I'll say it again, gaming was better before this bullshit and will always be better without it.
Drop this shit like a bad habit.
It's as racialized a caste system as what existed 100 years ago, it's just arranged in different ways.They don't fight racism. They're adding fuel to the fire.

This is probably the same type of people who work at insomniac

Oh I'm good mate. I just sold Spiderman 2Yea but you can't let it get to you that much.. it's def ruining video games tho.
Just watch a few Dave Chappelle clips when its coming on too strong and you'll feel better
There's still time to start a New Year's Tradition.Thank God my family don't.
I didn't compare left leaning to right leaning, I compared right leaning to avowed socialists. And equity by definition is equal outcome, not equal opportunity, which again is a socialist concept. Aside from that, here's where equity has brought us:
A word of advice: don't justify anything in this video, or "both sides" anything about this conflict, or it could very well lead to a ban. Many people have lost their accounts in the Israel thread. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "bans" on the lower right for some examples.
Lastly, teaching isn't about equity, it's about passing down knowledge. It's the literal definition.

A black lead and a female president especially in a futuristic setting is not "woke", y'all just throw the term around and its completely lost it's meaning. Is The Fifth Element woke too?I think CD Projekt Red got infected. They tried to pander to the Era crowd by putting in that obnoxious trans flag stuff. Of course it didn't help them.
Also Phantom Liberty feels pretty woke with strong female president and black dude in lead role. Granted I just started it so not sure how it plays out.

The title of that video is so obnoxious. I don't care who uses it or what the context is, the term "woke" has lost any meaning (if there was any meaning to begin with) and it needs to be taken out back and double-tapped.
Indeed, having non whites in the games is normal, but we all know what is actually woke, u can tell from that forced diversity vid, and from many AAA games from last 6-7 years.A black lead and a female president especially in a futuristic setting is not "woke", y'all just throw the term around and its completely lost it's meaning.

Internal videos like this don't really surprise me. Like with that Hyenas pitch video that was leaked a few months back, it wasn't meant to be seen by public audiences, and it looks all the more ridiculous for it.

That aside, that footage of Jamie Marchie's response was embarrassing at the time, and it's still embarrassing now. Going at any portion of your fanbase is not going to pay off for you or the company you work for in the long run. She just seems like an incredibly insufferable person.
Does Insomniac Games have a snack food problem?

Please have this video translate to Japanese for everyone in Japan to see the horrible things western translators are doing to their work.
But I wonder if AI is good enough to translate her garbage rambling.No need they are getting replaced by AI already. They made there own bed.

Gta san andreas had really lots of black ppl in there, black protagonist, hell even black villan, it didnt make it woke, games quality was main priority, not some weird overrepresentation/agenda.
Or u guys thinking famous hot coffee files that were in the og game were sign of the wokeness too ;P
Bruh, so you thought a company today would be the same company from 23 years ago.Remember when game developers simply had people who were passionate about the video games they were creating? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Clearly the Insomniac I knew and loved is long gone, then again that was way back when they were making games like the original Spyro trilogy. If you look at the culture they had back then, and compare it to today, it's like nothing from their glory days remains. This is simply a product of what has happened industry wide to AAA in general, the corporatization of big developers who need to cave into the demands of executive boards who sit around big publisher offices. They have their graphs, focus on trends, and set out objectives based upon ideals and out of touch projections. Developers get filled with people who are simply collecting a paycheck and doing a job as ordered, passion is no more, and games are just another product to put on another graph.
This is exactly why I have found myself gravitating away from AAA and towards AA. Smaller developers and publishers seem to resemble the way the gaming industry used to be, where passion still exists, developers still care about what they're doing, the focus is on creating the best games they can with a vision as opposed to trying to moneymax and please investors as well as executive boards. Can't say I'm surprised by this point either, as more money has been pumped into the industry, it seems like this sort of thing was inevitable.
