Well, at launch in France Rogue One got more than 270,000 viewers. Solo did 89,000. Ouch.

Ouch, indeed.  Have a link?

I'm not referring specifically to this film, rather in general. Perhaps u missed what I meant

Mate no where in this thread are people pushing the idea that diversity creates a mediocre product. 

Exactly.  And SJWs don't want true diversity.  They want a world where everyone agrees with them.  And minorities are only good minorities when they obey them and think like they do.  Otherwise, fuck 'em.  Call them names.  Get them fired.  Threaten their lives.  It's pathetic we live in a world where this can happen.

SJWs feminists and leftists are not pro diversity, they are authoritarian as in they want to shove diversity down the throats of people.

 

Palpably contradictory. When an orifice is constricted it takes force to penetrate, meaning, possibly you're closed minded to the idea so it feels like its being shoved down your throat. Doesn't mean it's actual reality...

Really? The level of hypocrisy! You're telling me that i'm close minded because i criticise people who look at games like God of War and call it sexist? SJWs look at everything that doesn't fit their vision of how things should be and attack it. Even Far Cry 5 was criticised for pandering because it had an "unrealistic"amount of black characters. 

I hope you enjoy the next Far Cry where your character will alternate race every minute in order to satisfy people of all races.

I'm not jumping to conclusions, i'm using historical proof and the demands of the market, something which you have ignored. 

OK then, I can just use FFI-FFIX as not having voice acting for proof that they didn't want it in X and apparently they were being forced into doing it by SJWs who want blind people to be able to have a more enjoyable experience with the game, rather than it being an idea that they liked and decided to implement in accordance with the changing times.

Mate you're comparing a technological aspect of a game, to a feature that is not in any way linked to technology.

WW2 games did not have female British soldiers in the early 2000s because of sexism, but because it isn't what the market demanded, and looking at the reaction of the FPS communities, it still isn't what the market wants. As for weather or not the developers wanted to do that, instead of being forced, we are never going to reach on an agreement. 

In my point of view given how vocal SJWs are, given the platform that they are given by the media, and given their presence in video game journalism it is evident that they are forcing the industry to change.

I hope you enjoy the next Zelda in 2022 where is it Zelda that saves Link, because we can't go on with women being portrayed as a damsel in distress.

It's ironic, what do you think the solution would be, to make it illegal for people to call games sexist and criticize them for that?

Interesting how you say that as if it's something horrifying, I for one think that actually sounds cool and I would get a game like that with a role reversal.

To stand up to them and tell them to fuck off. 

Do you see Cory Balrog defending his game from the countless articles that GOW received for being a haven of toxic masculinity. It doesn't happen at all, the only people who stand up for the constant attacks that games constantly receive are random people on forums and youtubers. And in the end these people get branded as sexist , racist, and countless buzzwords. 

And then you wonder why gamers have such uproars.

Are you trolling?

Have you not realised by now that it's a forced change on gaming, set by a specific group of people to cater to their ideas and nothing else. It's like you've been living in a bubble for the past 5 years.

I'm getting a headache from all this SJW talk... is anyone here actually going to be watching the film because they like Star Wars and don't care if films have a diverse cast or pansexual chocolate men? o.O

It is pretty comical, I been setting back and laughing. I really get the idea they really do not care if the films are good at this point.

Maybe because developers and publishers don't feel a need to, because they possibly agree the sentiments? Of course as I said before we don't have insider access so we can only make assumptions. However your last sentence is funny, as if SJWs and gamers are mutually-exclusive terms and the thought that they are actually gamers is something that you cannot accept.

No, I'm serious, a game with Zelda saving Link for a change actually sounds like it'd be exciting, and the fact that you're so against the idea of change that you somehow saw that as a negative is amusing to me.
