I'll like to point out that there is more going on with WotC than the woke ****. The reason 5e became as popular as it did wasn't just because of Critical Role but also COVID. It was a perfect storm for WotC during the COVID days. With COVID keeping people in their homes they needed to do something to pass the time. So they ended up watching Critical Role, Stranger Things and began to play D&D. There was a time when you would see 5e books get sold out on Amazon. Now? Not so much anymore. The golden days of COVID are over. People are back at work or doing other hobbies. WotC stocks have been in a slump since COVID ended. The woke **** is just the cherry on top the **** sundae. This company is on life support and there may be some truth to the rumors that Hasbro wants to sell off some of WotC assets and whatnot to other companies.Cloharp7 wrote: β February 5th, 2025, 23:41Because "playing pretend", especially the heavy-roleplay focus that is 5th edition, is very appealing to certain people? WotC is catering to their audience. And btw, that would be fine to me, as long as you don't trash the name of Gary Gygax in the process like they did with the 50th anniversary book. They can keep the cesspool, I switched to old school Dungeons & Dragons (OSRIC, a revisit of aDnD 1st edition), and I personally think it's 100x better than 5th ed will ever be.
Also, it is kinda going broke. From what I heard WotC is not doing very well with the new edition of DnD coming out. woke aside, the whole gaming space keeps lamenting that they have less and less DMs.
I suggest the channel "Grumpy Old Grognard" if you want to hear about the topic. His takes genuinely make you want to have a conversation about different ideas and ideals without all the vitriol we are so used to.

Two corrections. Original Sin is woke just not as much as BG3.Cloharp7 wrote: β February 5th, 2025, 23:26- In a fantasy game.Vergil wrote: β February 5th, 2025, 23:11So we again circle back to massive successes like Baldurs Gate 3 which were as pozzed as you could possibly get and yet the woke did not make them go broke.Jordy wrote: β February 5th, 2025, 23:09
The excerpt expresses a negative opinion about several video games, specifically:
- KCD2 (likely Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2) for its perceived woke themes
- The Outer Worlds for its writing, which is seen as poorly done and promoting a woke, anti-capitalist agenda
The author argues that these games are poorly written due to their writers' lack of nuance, understanding of friendship, and equality, which they attribute to the writers' woke ideology.
- A game where the main character's head is used as a golf ball, criticizing its perceived misandrist and woke themes
- In a well-established franchise (DnD) already overrun with LGHDTV++1++!+ since Critical Role took off a few years ago.
- In a setting that is one of the flagships of DnD 5e (I DARE you try this kind of **** in a setting like Greyhawk).
- By a studio that has made RPGs like Divinity Original Sin (slightly pozzed), but also w40k Rogue Trader (no pozzed). Alas, a studio that makes games for the target demographic of the setting.
I think context matters.
Rogue Trader is not developed by Larian, who developed Original Sin and BG3. Owlcat, who developed both Pathfinder games, are the ones responsible for Rogue Trader.

Yeah... Vavra comes across as a "bear" who prefers his twinks young. He may be just as much as a sick **** degenerate as Cuckmann. Hmm... I wonder what both Vavra and Cuckmann have in common?

Who else is ready for the DLC, A Womanβs Lot 2: BNWO?
I've been watching Lobos play the beginning of this game and it's so boring. As much as I enjoyed the first I think it has run its course with me.

Don't really see anything suggesting it's selling that much better than the first game which hit 1 million within a couple days of its launch.1998 wrote: β February 6th, 2025, 00:37KCD1 sold 500k after 2 days, KCD2 1M after 1 day.

The gameplay of the 1st was unique, now alongside an equipment and skill reset(?) It's just boring.Breathe wrote: β February 6th, 2025, 03:08I've been watching Lobos play the beginning of this game and it's so boring. As much as I enjoyed the first I think it has run its course with me.
I think reaching sales figure in one day it took the first game almost 2 weeks to reach could be called much better imo

KCD was never good and is always a modern slop, same as STALKER.

Why is this games peak player count always at EU times?
I'm not having some esoteric semantics argument because I rounded up 10 days to two weeks for the sake of streamlining.
