"White man bad game" and its the Bioshock game where the group of black revolutionaries turn into a pillaging horde as soon as they lose their single authority figure so you are obliged to shoot them in the face through the rest of the game

Later DLC would ""reveal"" that the black revolutionary leader only pretended to want to kill a child so the white main female character would grow as a person by killing her.

bioshock infinite bad

It's literally the plot, the game fucking sucks. Every Bioshock game is deeply anticommunist.

See White Jewish Man killing Nazis:

"THIS IS ANTI WHITE!"

Jewish is not a nationality comrade

Also, he's from the US, not Polish

His mum is Jewish and Polish

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 54 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Bioshock infinite doesn't count because its entire plot is saying that slaves rising up against their slave owners is as bad as being a slave owner.

Wolfenstein 2 is a masterpiece however, but also BJ is literally white

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

BJ's mom is Jewish. The series uses it for comedic/dramatic effect as well. Meeting Frau Engel on the train in 1 is such a tense yet comedic experience because of BJ's Jewishness.

Been a while since I played it, but I'm guessing she was complementing him as a "perfect Aryan specimen" or whatever?

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago

She was doing a "test" to see if he was Jewish or not, then called him the perfect Aryan

[–] MineDayOff@hexbear.net 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hate that they both sided it. Viva Vox Populi!

[–] WeedReference420@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago

Daisy Fitzroy did nothing wrong

[–] exocrinous@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Wolfenstein 1 still had that sketchy ass relationship between a brain damaged guy and the nurse who changed his adult diapers for two decades while he was almost comatose. I checked out when those two had a sex scene.

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 52 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Not only that, but it's about heroes who are literally white killing nazis lol. Red Dead Redemption 2's protagonist was a white cowboy who wasn't racist. They'll screech about how not every white person is racist, then when a non-racist white person is depicted, they screech that it's still anti white because they identify with the crackers being shot by the players.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They really should try identifying as that one old Lemoyne raider in the upstairs bedroom of Shady Belle

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

imagine giving that old fuck the satisfaction of finishing his little speech that he spent all day working on, lmao eat this shotgun barrel loser

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Second run, threw dynamite right in the door where he was at

[–] WeedReference420@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago

I burst into the room and blasted him in the face with the pump action like some kind of hybrid of Anton Chigurh and John Brown cool-bean

[–] Sephitard9001@hexbear.net 44 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Game where women and minorities exist and/or are playable: Woke

Game where everyone you kill is white and the player is white: Woke

Hmmm it sure sounds to me like they want a game where you play as a white guy but you kill non-white people. thonk

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 19 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They have resident evil 5 yet don't even like that

[–] Sephitard9001@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

Chris beats Wesker with Sheva's help because woke smuglord

[–] Smeagolicious@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Idk maybe they have mixed feelings about B.J being jewish - would not surprise me

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 35 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I should make a game called "Kill All Gamers" and in it all the gamers are white

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago

link to Kickstarter plz

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

and your character can be anything except white and male

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 27 points 10 months ago

Average gamer ideal of an apolitical game: Custer's Revenge or some shit

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You'd think they'd be happy that Wolfenstein avoided wokewashing by making all the Nazis white. Maybe they're upset because the new Nazi leader was a woman? Idk, just seems like a skill issue for all the Nazi men.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago (2 children)

And like, you're a white guy killing the nazis, what is that if not positive representation?

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yeah but Wolfenstein Youngblood makes the protaganists young white twin sisters and their black friend, so basically the whole franchise is ruined forever now.

[–] Yuritopiaposadism@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Killing Nazis has gone woke, smh.

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago

you just can't enjoy anything as a communist anymore... er wait.. are we communists when we're killing nazis?!

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

oh that's why that game was bad, i thought it was the mechanics and combat design

[–] Vncredleader@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

Geez maybe there is something demographically about him that they dislike or see as other

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Wolfenstein 2 was fun, never played the first reboot

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago (2 children)

First is better gameplay wise, with better set pieces and a stronger ending. The sequel had a lot more it wanted to say

[–] axont@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

The first Wolfenstein reboot has some of the most aggressive sounding guns I've ever heard in a game. It's perfect. Every gun sounds like you're firing a giant pirate cannon and Nazis explode into little red chunks.

The basic assault rifle makes such a clear crack sound, like an H&K rifle and now that I'm typing this that was probably the idea. That the future Nazis created a parallel universe H&K.

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah it was a fun nazi killing simulator, but otherwise felt meh, not the first time I've heard the first is better.

[–] WeedReference420@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago

First one is also very good, definitely recommended if you're ever in an FPS mood.

[–] emizeko@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

just tried to fire up this game again (Wolfenstein II) and remembered why I noped out the first time. it opens with a drawn-out unskippable cutscene of domestic violence and child abuse

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I can understand, though at least

spoileryou eventually get to kill that asshole

[–] RedArcher@hexbear.net 8 points 10 months ago

More proof of what being "apolitical" actually is 95% of the time.
