Social Justice At E3 2017 And The Smears Against The Alt-Right

In case you are one of those people that have a life, a family, goes to the gym regularly, reads books or pretty much anything else that isn’t playing video games and following gaming news, let me inform you that GamerGate1.5.0 just dropped.

I’ve been toying with writing a kind of fun article discussing whether Europa Universalis IV or Hearts of Iron IV (which has a Taylor Swift Aryan Goddess mod) is the official game of the Alt-Right, but it seemed a little out of place on AltRight.com. I’ve also been thinking about writing a piece explaining the relationship (or lack thereof) between the Alt-Right and GamerGate. But there always seemed to be something more important. However, there do seem to be a lot of Altrighters who are also gamers so maybe an article about diversity and multiculturalism in gaming will find an audience. Oh and by the way, I hear there was recently a social justice oriented panel dedicated to moving beyond cis het white straight ablest males as the default. No joke. (Photo stolen from /pol/).

But what happened to spark my attention? There is a game developer named Tim Soret who works at Raw Fury Games and is developing a post-cyberpunk dystopia called The Last Night which was just announced at E3.

A woman you may have heard of named Zoe Quinn, decided to get her name in the press again, and stirred the pot. That led to the SJW brigade going back and looking up everything Soret had ever said. The thought police went through his Twitter from three years ago to find out if he had ever committed WrongThink. And as it turns out, yes he has. They discovered old tweets where he made regarding GamerGate, feminism, and equality.

Soret didn’t say anything particularly nasty. He wasn’t issuing death threats to women or vowing to portray blacks in games as banana eating rapists. So what was his thought crime?

“The Gamergate people are for journalistic integrity, honest debate, transparency, inclusiveness, & egalitarianism”

  • Tim Sorset, 11 September 2014

And on top of that, he has committed the crime of portraying The Last Night as a socialist utopia where place where people struggle to find meaning in their lives. According to the game’s Steam page,

“…people struggle to find their calling or identity, and define themselves by what they consume, rather than what they create.”

Yea, the horrible crime of pointing out that a socialist utopia isn’t what their Marxist professors told them it would be. People might still have problems even with a Zuckerbergian minimum basic income, universal healthcare, and other free shit without talking about how you provide it. The game doesn’t seem to have a specific comment on politics at all, and I can’t tell beyond a reasonable doubt where Soret’s political loyalties rest. But that doesn’t matter to the SJWs. Soret is a heretic who once said something nice about GamerGate and thus he must be harassed until he quits the industry or until he is ostracized.

That’s just how it works in the current year. The left hated corporations until the advent of corporate social responsibility, a business school code word for bowing to left-wing political agendas.

Soret and Raw Fury did what companies always do when the Social Justice brigade demands a new sacrifice, they cucked. And Soret himself actually apologized onstage for the tweets.

He completely stands for inclusiveness and equality you guys!

That’s not going to get the SJWs to back off. It never works. The only way to deal with those people is to challenge them to develop a game, I mean besides something like Depression Quest. You could also challenge them to do something besides beg for money on Patreon as well, but good luck with that.

Though on the bright side actual gamers and some uncucked developers seem to be having a good laugh at the expense of the left.

Oh and don’t forget guys, the retards at Mic and Motherboard are telling us to be pumped about Wolfenstein 2 a game that literally no gamer I know, left, right or libertarian, has been anticipating. But you know, we’re supposed to be raving about it because it has a strong black woman and you get to kill Nazis.

When will the gaming industry realize that “Nazis” – ie White men and boys are their biggest consumer demographic and stop doing everything in their power to spite them?

  • New call of duty is going back to killing Nazis, I predict it will flop. They will think kids don’t care about the past now, of course ironically it’s because kids are just starting to care about the real history. If someone would make a fps where you are an elite ss unit or German paratrooper that would sell like crazy, even with normies who want to roleplay as the other side.

  • I have no problem playing non white characters as long as it’s not forced and not done to serve a political agenda. If a game has a Japanese person as the main character and the game takes place in Japan, I have no problem with that. Games like Yakuza Kiwami are fine. It’s when they have non-white characters for the sake of “diversity” and “equality” that it’s stupid.

    • How very tolerant and open-minded of you. I personally only play games with blond haired blue eyed Aryan Übermenschen as the protagonists.

  • Just kill everyone in the game that pisses you off. What is this whinging from both sides? A game is a game, and it is violent it is for the joy of killing. But wait…you people have an official game, you seriously have to play your own game? *Face Palm*

  • GamerGate was just that, a gateway for gamers to transition into a movement about free expression, speech, and the game that is journalism.

    Journalists are supposed to report newly received or noteworthy information, especially about recent or important events.

    Instead they now create that information for clicks per the new online model.

    There is no real mainstream journalism anymore, it’s all rhetoric, propaganda, and heresay.

    The AltRight has an opportunity to legitimize itself by honoring truth and ethics in journalism and not play the clickbait game. So if you create content for them, please check your sources and don’t do what the failing mainstream media is doing, as that is a failed and degenerate model.

    Also,Typo in the paragraph after the first quote

  • Wolfenstein 2 is developed by a Swedish firm, which explains the poz. However, it’s published by Bethesda, a long-time favourite of mine (best known for the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series, and for buying up id Software [the guys who came up with the Wolfenstein, Doom and Quake series] at the beginning of the decade). I probably won’t be buying any new Bethesda games. Fallout 4 and Doom 2016 will be my last.

    I also won’t be purchasing any new games until Half Life 2 Episode 3 comes out, if it does. I’ll stick to buying older ones.

    • Bethesda’s just the license holder/moneyman. Wolfenstein has been around since the DOS days, and is (unfortunately) actually fairly popular. Elder Scrolls and Fallout are developed by a specific division of the company, Bethesda Game Studios, headed by Todd Howard. Don’t blame him.

  • Thanks for this, as in fact I don’t game. And I have a 1 year old daughter with another on the way. And I work. And I’m reading this in the gym between sets.

    • I love all the paradox games, Victoria is great as well. And Winning world war Jew with Germany and setting the world right is pretty satisfying, but EU is the best probably.

  • As someone who is both full 14/88 and a gamer, I recently *switched* to Nintendo’s Switch. Their were a variety of reasons for this but one thing I’m surprised the shitlibs on the left have failed to notice is, Nintendo puts Blonde Haired, Blue eyed, white characters as their protagonists. Yes, their commercials are your typical corporate garbage, but the vast majority of their games are fun and most importantly, cancer free.

    • I was thinking of getting the Switch but I would need to see if the new Pokemon RPG is going to be good or not.

      • That’s not as pitiful as internet trolls in parents’ basements LARPing as valient soldiers of the Third Reich.

      • Define “suck”. Do you mean “not enough gore”? Heaven forfend someone actually make family-friendly games.

          • Mario, Donkey Kong, and Metroid aren’t anime. Zelda has a slight anime influence, but is primarily classic medieval/fantasy themes. Star Fox could be labeled as “furry”, but that’s just perverts trying to co-opt innocent children’s characters.

            Pretty much the only real anime things Nintendo does are Pokémon, Xenoblade, and Fire Emblem, and other companies such as Square Enix do that kind of “JRPG” styling MUCH worse.

            Nintendo games are classic, wholesome, well crafted FUN. Believe it or not, it is possible to have fun without ripping out spines or killing hookers.

      • Breath of the Wild is potentially the greatest game I have ever played, but if your into pozzed mass effect type garbage you might think it sucks

        • Mass Effect is a different type of faggotry, specifically of the SJW variety, where as Nintendo is the pathetically gay anime for pedophiles type of faggotry.

          I’ll pass on both, thank you.

  • social conditioning will get them more kickback and tax breaks. they always have young kids that don’t understand and have no other publishers to go to for their sales
