I don’t get it.

How is that a problem to people wanting to work on or work with Bitwarden? Or am I misunderstanding the wording on it?

It just seems to say that you cannot rip this SDK out to use it on something else. Which makes sense as far as an internal library goes, at least on the surface?

So this then begs the question, why are people decrying games as “woke” trying so hard to push their political agenda into gaming discussions? After all, as per point 1 + point 3, the game was already criticized/panned anyways, then someone came in and tries to push the critique onto a political level instead of a game one.

So “woke” means all of the following together, trying to summarize:

• A game includes anything related to LGBTQ+ or political left-leaning ideology.
• The above is presented via non-gameplay elements. It’s fine if its in the gameplay.
• The game was a commercial flop or critically panned.

Did I sum that up correctly?

It’s a very overused and absolutely terrible use of a word.

For two reasons:

1. It has a predefined meaning, and if you read what the DA creators say, they’re not actually “slamming” it. While they’re pretty openly hostile - and for good reason - that’s a far cry from what someone “slamming” someone else or a quote would be.
2. It’s inclusion in the headline is for sensationalism, which would not be needed as the “You’re an idiot!”-quote already does that. Or maybe it’s just surprising how desensitivized people on the net are nowadays.

To think it further, consider the whole headline had been slam-ified:

Dragon Age GOATs slam “woke” lollerz: “Cry moar!”

Visuals are part of the experience, it’s not unrelated.

Why? Or rather, why this, but apparently not your character or their back story?

There are a lot of good games that can be considered as “woke” and no one talk about them like this.

When they have no good material, they start to promote unrelated things to gameplay. This is just one of those things.

Didn’t YOU just say that people focus on the visuals of characters? As in, something unrelated to gameplay?

I have one problem with this:

slams

… siiiiigh

Aye, it has become another dogwhistle of the weirdo alt right crowd. It’s kinda helpful because whenever you see someone use it unironically, you can just safely block/ban them at no loss of conversation.

because the creators using it to hide their bad games

How does this work in particular? The hiding bit? Doesn’t it actually draw attention, considering how many people then spam “OMG SO WOKE!11!!angry-1!!” and so on threads everywhere?

Aye, let’s agree to respect each other’s opinion. No matter how wrong yours might be.

(joking of course, I actually like 2 a lot despite how clearly unfinished and rushed it was, although I really really disliked 3 except for the romances and the character interactions)

Sure, but how do you solve the problems that patents in turn solved (and brought new problems with them of course)? That as kinda my point, if we just ban patents we can just look back to know which problems we need to solve in another way.

Yeah but again, not a copyright lawsuit.

That’s genuinely not as simple as you think it is. You realize there was a time before modern patent law, yes?

It’s 2024, and we still assign significance to streamers and stream viewers. No wonder the world is going to shit as fast as it is…

Live service, as in: you better watch it live or you’ll have missed it! 😅

Yeah everything about this is wrong.

They could have had this golden opportunity if this came out the very week OW1 went OW2 and pissed everybody off. Even with the pay-once price and all that.

But now, it’s much much much too late.

(edit)
Also, people underestimate just how much art style makes or breaks these games. Concord has some neat hero designs, cool ability sets and smart ideas, but it looks so utterly generic. The heroes are somewhat okay even though they really need an art style that doesn’t look like a leftover CoD asset, but wow the levels and gameplay and weapons and all all look like asset flips.

Artists, Sony. Hire some. Your AI cannot save you, as should be evident at this point. Stop paying the corporate accountant to design level art.

You must be reading weird reviews then. Probably too deep into the influencer-bubble, which granted with the proliferation of video reviews and the way algorithms work on Youtube and so on is sadly rather comment.

I would quarantine that game in my review bucket based on it’s isolation of specific trigger words such as ‘COVID-19’. I’d rather talk about Winnie the Pooh, tbh.

Good to know you like censorship.

Some things are just for men, their depression, their anger, their pain…”.

I mean, you can just ask for suicide watch straight up, instead of veiling it like that?
