Wild to think that not too long ago it was those evil publishers holding devs back and causing their downfall.

marketing departments full of white guys wearing shirts with rolled up sleeves were the real MVPs

Haven't worked with or even seen a single half-decent marketing department in any field.

I'm just stating the facts.

Skyrim Belongs to the Nords.

There is no virtue in extending mercy to those who want you dead.
Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!

oh look they posted an updated a few days ago, let's check it o-

I am sure this will help sell their game and save the company from the impending bankruptcy.
To be more specific, it's an update about companion romance and these are the only two screenshots. Every romanceable companion is gay as well.gerey wrote: ↑ July 14th, 2025, 14:29I am sure this will help sell their game and save the company from the impending bankruptcy.

Naturally, the male romance option is a White, conventionally attractive, blonde, blue-eyed man.
I think Spiders needs the workforce to go on strike again, to really let the creative juices flow and ensure they deliver an even bigger bomb than Veilguard. It's not like they are unaware of what sells - Mars: War Log, Technomancer, Bound by Flame and even the first Greedfall had attractive romance options, so this has to be a very deliberate choice.
I genuinely have to wonder if the leadership is completely oblivious about the marketability of their product, or if they are purposely setting themselves up for failure so the French gubmit can bail them out.

it's like they tried to balance the creepy negro hag with a young good looking white dude...
It was like this in Greedfall as well.
No not really. They were two straight options (Kurt for broads and Uppity Nigette for guys) and two bi options (Siora and Vasco).
Oh, right. I misremembered because Kurt talks about being gay raped during his soldier training.Mikeal wrote: ↑ July 15th, 2025, 08:22No not really. They were two straight options (Kurt for broads and Uppity Nigette for guys) and two bi options (Siora and Vasco).

Spiders's Creative Director/former-CEO is a middle aged French woman, of course she'd be into this.
I really don’t understand how a small to mid size studios could willfully ignore there own core demographics when they don’t have big publishers to fall back on.gerey wrote: ↑ July 15th, 2025, 14:12There wouldn't be a need for them if devs didn't waste time and resources on the female protagonist option.Unhelpful Contrarian wrote: ↑ July 15th, 2025, 13:18The introduction of Player sexual mechanics is pure cancer
The french have always been gay and love *******
Spiders was acquired by Bigben in 2019.

I feel like this thread is the most active discussion of the game on the internet.
Shame how far they fallen. In all honesty there game Bound by Flame is were they peaked and has been a steady decline since.Brother Chad wrote: ↑ July 15th, 2025, 20:52I feel like this thread is the most active discussion of the game on the internet.
