just saying that they at least have enough self-awareness to acknowledge they lack the ability to make anything better.
This is more a hindsight move on their part. It is an emotional safety net for when their product fails. Like doing a shrug and saying, "nobody is perfect" when their sales tank. I don't know of any other business that does this. Imagine even submitting a resume to any other job and promoting yourself as someone who does the bare minimum and taking pride in that. Ridiculous. This industry deserves to crash.

I haven't had Dominos in so long. Used to love eating their pan pizzas. So filling! Spinach and feta cheese was one of my favorites too.

Leonard Black (March 8, 1820 – April 28, 1883) was born a slave in Anne Arundel County, Maryland,[1] and was separated from his family by the age of six. He escaped after 20 years of slavery. In 1847 he wrote The Life and Sufferings of Leonard Black: A Fugitive from Slavery. With encouragement and support, he became a Baptist minister, preaching in Boston, Providence, and Nantucket before becoming minister of First Baptist Church in Petersburg, Virginia.
You're gonna taste the seasoning.

EDIT: I formally request a picture of the forearm of the delivery guy.

this may surprise you, but in white societies everyone contributes to the public good and therefore there's mutual respect :turtle:

Ultimately, MicroSoft is the one footing the bill, and if they're willing to pay people to **** out slop (that doesn't sell), who are we to blame them? It's not like we're losing anything in the process, nobody working on Obsidian has the talent or passion to make anything better, so everyone benefits from them staying there and spinning the proverbial wheel.

Everyone wins - MS loses money, the leftard employees are kept busy, and we get to laugh at their incompetence.
Aren't they taking up resources that could be better spent?
Microsoft will only fund so many studios because they only have the mental bandwidth to manage so many.
And they do not have an infinite money tap, and even if they did, It's a bandwidth problem again, is it not?
You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.

I noticed the Avowed director said the exact same thing Kim Belair said about making a product. Namely that their goal was not to produce something great, but something mediocre. For Kim Belair, she stated that she doesn't care about the quality of a product as long as she had a team of people she enjoyed working with. Carrie Patel basically said that mediocrity is the goal and is now patting herself on the back because that goal was met.

Imagine taking pride in putting forth bare minimum effort. This trash deserves to be pirated at best and discarded at worst The creators are all but admitting they're producing drive-thru slop.
Doesn't this kind of prove the goal is just to propagandize/radicalize kids to be anti-white? A mediocre product won't sell well enough to recoup the costs or make profit.

I think you have cause and effect and intent in the wrong order.
Yes, they do want to radicalize the youth.
Yes, they do want to get paid, but have commie issues with worrying about business profits.
They would love to make a "hit" but will not because they cannot because the things they wish to put in a game are antithetical to it unless hidden.

Ultimately, they're just selfish. They want to make what they like and be paid for it without any requirements and never have any pushback on their "vision".

True, that is indeed their goal, but it will not really matter anything if nobody bothers to buy the slop they make, and if no young person buys it, then nobody will get to become a new anti-White racist.

Morbid curiosity
I hear people say this every time a new stinker drops from the anus of California.


Veilguard Preorder? "I was curious!"

Avowed Preorder? "I was curious"

Concord Battlepass? "Oh I was just curious"


Curiosity killed the gaming industry.
Who still pre-orders games these days without a playable demo or a steam refund to at least test the first few hours or so?

Let us hope that Avowed does about as well as your other two examples. If I cared for first-person games then I'd be more upset, because I rather like the art style.
