Nope, see here you fucking moron. That’s not how facts work.
You said it’s the fault of millennials. They’re not the ones in charge you fucking idiot. Millennials aren’t the shareholders, they don’t have millions of dollars invested and at stake with these games. You think these gay ass greedy boomers and genxrs would ever give them that? There’s a reason they Stil control less than 5% of the national wealth, millennials don’t have shit. They don’t run shit. They don’t own shit.

Are you implying that finding out who fired the shot doesn't drive much of the game's plot?

No. I'm flat out saying you don't know understand that a whodunnit is a specific type of mystery and just because a story has a mystery doesn't mean it's a whodunnit. Ever seen the movie Seven, for example? That's a mystery film. It's about trying to catch a serial killer by following clues. But it's not a whodunnit. There's no way for the audience to deduce the identity of the killer before the characters do. That's the distinction. That doesn't make Seven a badly written film.
Intellectual incestuousness due to millennial writers hailing from an extremely specific geographic, ideological, and socioeconomic milieu while simultaneously rejecting other influences due to outside influences not aligning with their extremely specific milieu's values.
This is a pretty accurate assumption, along with swearing, swearing has become white noise to fill in gaps of writing, Or to show how ‘adult’ your characters are. It’s tiring really, swearing should really be rarer in peoples writing otherwise its impact, its key punching factor for what is considered a ‘swear’, is evaporated.
Popular media is the only thing socially acceptable to consume, everything else is usually lost on most people unless they’re also involved with your niche audience, but when everything that’s popular to indulge has the same intellectual value of as a waffle iron instruction manual, then the many people that have the opportunity to work in a professional writing environment, they’ve been so thoroughly stewed in the basic and bland material for years, they don’t know what’s actually quality they just know what ‘works’. What made them entertained but not ‘why’.
That’s why audiences clamour and hold the most just barely above average things as gospel because for the last 13 years barely any media has done anything of substance, or have been remakes of what worked, or sequels of things that worked before. That goes into a different context of committee design, a lot of the most popular modern media is given way too much budget, therefore they have to guarantee to both show their investors they’ve used that budget but make sure earn it back too, which means minimum risk, having proper intrigue or conflict, having stories or characters that may turn people away, is inherently a risk most companies cannot and will not take. Which means that run every aspect of a product though a filter made of dramatic overview, ‘this might offend, change it or cut it’, ‘Does the villain really need to do that? It could upset people, can you change it?’, ad nauseam
We grew up in the most consumerist decade by far, right as politically correct culture was sweeping the first world. So we ended up as brand worshipers while becoming extremely sensitive to identity and racial politics. Then the 2008 housing crash happened and it shaped our future before we even became adults, and we were the first people to have to deal with those repercussions while having zero income or property which is why millennials are so obsessed with rent and leaning more on the communist side of thinking while staying pretty poor.
different sensabilities for different generations. Rick and Morty was very edgy in both understandings of the word when it came to the type of content to depict and references.
Its funny to see people pine for "oh so relatable" theme as the apex of comedy. its a type of comedy that will be VERY VERY dated in the times to come.
Apparently Nick Wilde fanfiction was massively popular with women on tumblr for about a year after the movie came out. Think how this place was with Judy

No matter what anti-westeners say american shows are still miles ahead in terms of comedy compared to japanese humor
You will understand Japanese humor let it be a 1 year or 20 years old game. Western humor becomes outdated in a few years at best because it is so current.
I don't think that something being relatable is ever going to become dated in itself, or that it is a bad thing to go for, be it for comedic or dramatic effect. But the relatable actions need to be universal, and not tied to some current trend at the time of writing, unless that current trend is your main theme. Much of what Gilgamesh or Odysseus do in their tales is relatable, for example. Odysseus only gets into the whole mess to begin with because he can't keep himself from bragging when things go his way. That's how you do relatable characters/situations.
>Odysseus only gets into the whole mess to begin with because he can't keep himself from bragging when things go his way.
Doesn't he deliberately pick a fight with Poseidon? He trashes his temple and kills his son or something?
It's been a while, but I think the whole thing starts when he blinds the cyclops, who is one of poseidons sons. He tells him his name so he can remember the guy who fucked him up, and that comes back to haunt him.
Isn't this after Ody pissed off poseidon? It happens during the trojan war where Odysseus takes full credit for beating the trojans so Poseidon sends a storm on his ship that takes them to cyclops cannibal island.

Yeah, Odysseus smugly claims to be the mastermind behind the victory despite Poseidon giving him the idea of using a wooden horse. He also refuses to pay tribute to the gods so Poseidon gets triggered.
I kinda think this plays into even gameplay stuff as Aonuma said he grew up with no toys and that made him get into creating his own fun which helped him with coming up with ideas for Zelda games. Same with Miyamoto playing in the woods.
people will come up with a bunch of reasons like the MCU and other shitty media having an influence, or various factors that mean these people have no concept of money or hardship and live in a bubble, but what it all comes down to is nepotism. writing is one of those "anyone can do it" jobs which means it gets filled up with all the loser retard children and friends of VIPs, with the occasional diversity hire thrown in.
They're culturally irrelevant. Every other generation gets skipped. It went from GI generation to boomers, skipping the aptly named silent generation, now it's going from boomers to millennials, skipping gen x. Zoomers will probably be skipped as well when the cultural torch is passed by millennials to gen alpha forty years from now.
No they aren’t, the lead writer for forspoken is a fucking genxr. I work in advertising and all the studios are run by genxrs.
It’s retarded dumbfuck cattlemoron zoomer dumbasses falling for TikTok propaganda that makes them hate millenials which are nearly as fucked as they are. What a worthless fucking generation, have a nice day.
>Zoomers will probably be skipped as well when the cultural torch is passed by millennials to gen alpha forty years from now.
Don't think so. Gen Z and Gen Alpha will be roughly the same size given the birth rate trends. Even though there are more Millenial women who can give birth to Gen Alphas than there were Gen X women who could have given birth to Zoomers, Millenial women are just not having babies like Gen X women did.
For me, it’s because I’m terrified of failure and embarrassing myself. What happens if I invest time, effort, and emotional integrity into creating something and then the end result being as ridiculous as the shit in the OP?
2000s character sees their home town in ruins from a fire >MC "...." >Partner "Something wrong?" >MC "No....nothing's wrong...."

Yeah, I was thinking of those two as well, but I can't help but feel like the first two witchers are kind of cheating because eastern europe is so different from america which is what people usually mean by "the western gaming industry".
>moderately well-written romance in a western game
13 years ago, in FNV you deliver eggs of progressively more dangerous animals for red lucy and once you prove yourself to be true alpha male apex predator, you get the privilege of fertilizing her own eggs.
I haven't. It seems like every one is the woman being an unlikeable cunt to the other guy. Then you do a fetch quest mission. Then you hear her sob story. Then you two are in love. That's genuinely how it's been for the last 10+ years. And what's amazing is that even though people can't write romance these days it's just as hard to romance people in real life. A woman will tell you what she wants and leave out the word "attractiveness" because it's taboo to ask for a handsome or cute spouse. Then you have forty guys in her DM's hitting every point she wants but because they have bitch tits, resting bitch face, or serial killer eyes they get passed.
>they grew up with Marvel tier writing
They grew up with Joss Whedon. I never got Joss Whedon. I was the prime demographic and everyone my age seemed to love Buffy and Angel and Firefly but not me. The fucking dialogue just drove me mad. Reminder that Anita Sarkeesian did her thesis on Joss Whedon. These people really fucking loved him.
>These people really fucking loved him.
I find it funnier that he still had a career even after his wife exposed him as a cheating bitch and the people that worked with him in Buffy outted him as a genuinely unpleasant human being.
But only after he was accused as a racist, he disappeared from the face of the earth.
It's fucking hilarious how pandering to these people only makes them police you harder. You can never have an airtight enough filter to not get cancelled for something you said once 20 years ago, it's just a matter of time before somebody finds something to get upset about.
Millennials and zoomers fear sincerity. Nothing they make feels 'real'. They don't put their real thoughts of feelings into their work, everything is a joke or ironic or some other built-in cope mechanism.
Sincerity invites risk, and risk invites failure. By acting like they don’t care, they remove agency for the shittiness of their work and that prevents them from learning how to grow. And so they get stuck in a loop of perpetual stagnancy, and that’s where things have been for the better part of a decade.
Can you blame them? Every boomer instilled into their millenial children that failure is the worst possible thing, worse than death itself. Then millenials reached the age of 30 without having a tenth of the purchasing power their parents had when they were 30 and go into depression. Better to not even care. Let it all burn
nepotism. there's a noticeable decline in writing across all visual media; compare 2000s shows to shows nowadays. plus i doubt modern TV show writers actually read older works or study dramatic structure and what have you.
notice how the largest IPs out there came from one person with a vision (harry potter, game of thrones, star wars, lord of the rings).
there shouldn't be whole teams of writers, writing shouldn't be done in comittees >t. guy who might write a book someday
Something I've noticed about millennials is that they have this desperate need to "say something", but they also feel like everything worthwhile has already been said. They want to be "deep, man!" but dont have any life experience to actually say anything meaningful.
That’s because depth is something that happens organically as a piece of work is being made. It’s not something that can be injected into the work in question like basting a turkey, or at least there’s no technique that I’m aware of that allows you to do that. You just have to love what you’re working on enough to pour your heart and soul into it. People who are moved by it will recognize the “depth” even if it isn’t really there.
>there shouldn't be whole teams of writers, writing shouldn't be done in comittees
With ironically one exception: scripted comedy often works best with multiple people coming up with jokes and tying them up together. See Simpsons (older ones) and decent sitcoms. Obviously the writers need to be good, though.
Boomers didn't have the internet telling them what's cool or not, so if they wanted to write something dumb and play it 100% straight until it became good, they could do it.
Now we have a bunch of rules and blueprints, and a very miserable bunch of people who make fun of everything that even remotely attempts to do something. It's probably hard to write knowing everything you do will be hated unless it was already good to begin with.
I'm willing to bet even if the game was well written, half of you fuckers will call it shit just to call it shit, only to come back years later, after the franchise is already dead and act like you liked it back then.
>I'm willing to bet even if the game was well written, half of you fuckers will call it shit just to call it shit, only to come back years later, after the franchise is already dead and act like you liked it back then.
true, just look at the state of this place
There's probably a lot of millennials who are good writers. Now in addition to your usual cast of nepotism hires, you also have diversity hires. So everyone on the writing staff is incompetent or a woman, which isn't something you can lay at the feet of a whole generation.
Nepotism is a messy game. If that really is one of the reasons things are so shitty right now then the people in charge need to figure out where the cracks in this system are and get it under control.
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. Written by people with classical literature degrees, and it shows. Also a lot of it was written by a woman, who managed to write good archetypal male characters without emasculating them or upstaging them with girlboss self-inserts. I miss the early 2000's.
One of the writers, and clearly she now has some kind of undiagnosed malignant brain tumor which doesn't erase her fine body of work in the early 2000's. I'm going to need you to be a bit sensible and tactful about this OK anon? It's not Amy's fault her brain is damaged
Yeah it's difficult to believe I know but let's all be adults here, obviously there's a medical reason for this lapse in skill. We will remember the good times when Amy was based
Morrowind is ironic meta bullshit. It's just not trying to be funny about it with quirky characters. Objectively a badly written game. You're a stupid.
I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream
Daggerfall
Oddworld Abes Exodus
The real shame is even the more schlock and action focused games of decades ago have better writing than most modern products, I’d say fucking Pyjama Sam is more intellectually thought provoking than The Last Of Us, SWAT 4 has more visual storytelling in one level than God Of War 4-5 combined with more impact on the player
100% completely unironically it's social media, I am not memeing.
Writers now congregate in tiny bubbles, they are not exposed to any experiences, outside of what algorithms provide them with, aka the same shit over and over. Their horizons are tiny, they only read, speak with and meet with people, who are carbon copies of them. It's not exclusively writer problem, but general population problem. This is why society is infantilized so much now. "Growing up" is experiencing and learning new things, getting new perspectives. You can't achieve it if your life is directed by algorithm, guarding you from anything new and providing you with sludge of content identical to the previous one.
because for millenials you don't get hired for being competent or capable, you get hired because you have a lot of acronyms in your twitter bio and look like a nutjob
We cope with the emptiness of our lives by layering everything in a thick sludge of irony, to the point where any kind of sincerity comes across as cringe or weird.
Boomers grew up with boredom. Boredom leads to thinking which leads to creativity. Gen X was the first generation that got their dopamines fried by things like Star Wars and 80s cartoons. Millenials never stood a chance with video games, CGI movies and the internet. Lterally every zoomer has ADHD because of smartphones, Fortnite and Marvel movies
Tim Schafer showed that millennial writing isn't dictated by age. He went from being funny to being ironically self-aware humorous with intentionally bad pun jokes
Tim Schafer was never funny. All the way back at the very beginning he was writing self-aware lol so random shit. >with intentionally bad pun jokes
You've never played Monkey Island, have you?
Play Psychonauts 1 and 2 back to back and you'll see it. It's a totally different brand of humour.
I haven't, but I've played 5 other games he wrote and they weren't cringeworthy.
it's because "generations" are a made up thing by people trying to sell something and aren't used by any organization like StatsCan or the U.S. Census bureau who use demographics to accuratly describe attitudes and trends in society by age group and have repeatedly put out statements on how "generations" aren't a real thing.
The terms "silent generation", "greatest generation", "Baby boomer", "Gen-X", "Millennials", "GenZ" are all made up bullshit to innacuratly compartmentalize history in a reductionist way, ussually by marketing agencies or authors, trying to cash in on peoples ignorance about demographics with books and talking circuits.
The "Silent Generation" was invented by Time Magazine in 1951 to sell magazine subscriptions
The "Greatest Generation" was popularized by Tom Brokaw to sell his 1998 book called 'The Greatest Generation', the term taken from a speech to Congress by U.S. Army General James Van Fleet in 1953.
Gen-X was popularized by Canadian author Douglas Coupland in 1991 to sell his book 'Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture'. He took the term from the title of a 1964 book called 'Generation X'
>boomers
Boomers never wrote anything good. It was the generation before them that actually did decent stuff. Boomers were partying and wasting themselves in hedonism when most good film and books were made. They weren't interested in maintaining human culture, so it didn't transfer to millenials.

Look at the media boomers grew up with, original ideas that are now just being remade endlessly. Millennials grew up on shit remakes, unnecessary sequels, and marvel. Basically their slop is just regurgitated boomer slop
Millennials personality is entirely based on the saturday morning cartoons they used to watch as kids and the dwarf warrior from lord of the rings, plus thinking they're entitled of changing the world for some reason (main character syndrome I guess)
This. Why are we pretending like 35 year old millenials have any power whatsoever in the entertainment industry? Most big projects are still being headed by gen xers in their mid 40s to mid 50s, if not downright boomers in their late 60s and 70s. They do not want to pass on the torch to millenials no matter what.
NTA, but for two of the characters it makes sense, since they are basically two halves of the same soul. The third, the silver haired one, is the outlier though
The beginning of this game was hilarious with how it immediately starts with her in a court room and then she gets jumped by a bunch of morons who she owes money. Got an honest laugh out of me
yeah it's so fucking bad, she also doesn't grab her money bag while the house is on fire even though it's right next to her with a handle and goes on to save her cat , which honestly could probably escape way easier than her.
I decided to stop taking any of you fags by word and did some actual "research" and by that I mean a basic Goggle search.
This is the head writer of Forespoken. He was born in 1972.
People born mid-1960's through early 1980's is Gen X.
The vast majority of the people you fags complain about are actually Gen X. Not all of course, but most.
Decided to also look up the head writer of the shit Saints Row reboot. Admiteddly it's hard finding an exact age but just looking at his fucking face and how long he's been in the industry, it's fair to say he's Gen X minimum.
Also worked on 3 so yeah, this guy ruined SR.

It's his role to approve every line of dialogue, retarded gay. You talk like an intern who's worked 6 months tops and thinks the higher ups don't do anything all day.

You're worse in every way: that faggy broccoli cut, face tattoos, incomprehensible moron speak that makes hobos seem eloquent, and you think you're hard because of it. It's genuinely sad seeing whites speedrun a generation into being little hoodrats and y'all are wondering why well spoken browns with degrees are preferred hires when the EEO-1 quota's already been met. bros have always been fatherless so we learn how to cope. This is the first white generation raised entirely by women or gays and it's worse than anything we've ever made.
Because they aren't from California originally. They move away from their "backwards" homes to move to the "big city". Either that or they're products of spoiled upper class families.

That one IH video about a bike lock assaulter was like a low level assistant teacher in a uni or something. He had a degree in ethics.
That fits antifa a bit better than someone well off in life. some nonsense degree that cannot be used to do any productive work which leaves them a lot of time fantasizing about hurting others
But I'm not wrong feeling that way, right? >Make the rent/college debt jokes multiple times >Everyone is fucking quirky like they're trying to outdo one another to be the funny one of the group >Complain about corporations, when you fucking start working for one at the start of the game
about corporations, when you fucking start working for one at the start of the game
Isn't that the point? Why would anybody become a Marxist "le corporations are exploiting le workers of le world" if they didn't ever work for a company at any point in your life?
I thought the characters start working for the corp and then through working for the corp come to realize that corp bad, anarchist rebellion good

Funny how critiques of writing on here are never any more thoughtful or go any deeper than "it's so bad guys". One would hope there'd be some evidence of knowing how to write/articulate thoughts given that writing is the thing being complained about. Y'all just wanna skip to the part where you use it as a springboard to air your grievances with the world as you perceive it.
People respond to the marketing material publisher puts out
This game decided theres some market that loves this kinda content. Like they're fans of subreddits talking about marxism, feminism and who will react to whatever post praising elon musk with a downvote.
The writers were told "appeal to that, and dont appeal to anyone else".
Its not a critique of the writing, its a critique of what the devs tried to accomplish and that they weren't trying to make a game that appeals to the person complaining.
speaking of grievances with the world. why is suddenly "yall" so popular? theres no way this many southern people are just now finding their way online and I know cowboys arent making a comeback so what gives?
YALL!
I mean its inconsequintal but it just irks me to see everyone using a shorthand now when just a while back people wouldnt mind typing "You all".
HOWDY YALL!

yeah I figured that was the case. As a person who doesnt use social media day by day I can feel my "firmware" becoming outdated. Did you also noticed that people stopped using "bro" and started using "bruh"? or "breh".
as a person who grew up saying "dude" all the time it feels like im slowly being replaced...i vocabulary is.....becoming obsolete...
My recent observation is the fall from grace of "retard". Ten years ago literally everyone, even on the political left, used retard, but nowadays it's like thought of as being in the same neighborhood as the N-word. The speed at which language keeps changing is absolutely crazy.
They know being a moron amd a retard is a bad thing which is why they have to say heavily shame those words. Black is a demonic babylonian curse, retards are objective worse than geniuses and midwits.
I still use "retard"
anyone who is upset by it is a retard and not worth your time

honestly gay and retard being used as a insult and long past overdue for extinction. Not because of SJW nonsense or anything but because its a low road copout and a majority of the fun that comes from name-calling and ad hominem usage is flexing your imagination to paint a mental image in your opponents head.
getting into a online altercation and calling someone a "stupid retard" or "gay "u suck dick) is shameful dispray and no effort. why even have a brain if you arent gonna use it?
Not to mention just with the direction that western society has moved in now calling someone "gay" really really doesnt have that same "sting" like it used to. people dont care about being gay anymore. some are even proud of it. its not a insult anymore because a measure of people choose to actively make it part of their personality.
we need to find new insults. we need our top minds on it. we can use Call of Duty's proximity chat as the perfect testing grounds.

nothing beats calling someone a retarded gay. The wordy insults might sound better in your head but if you call someone some long ass "creative" insult you found on reddit people will just point and laugh. It's very hard to get long insults right, you have to have the charisma to pull it off, which ,let's face it, most people don't. a simple "fucking idiot" will work better than "I don’t have the time or the crayons to explain it to you." or “You lack so much brain matter that you’d float on water.”

Nah. I believe retard and moron are so used and fought over despite being "bad" is because they are, above all, appropiate.
Sometimes someone does or says something so stupid that these are the proper words most people would find "correct" to use to emphazise just how retarded that thing was. If they werent effective at describing a specific certain type of sentiment then they would die on their own.

Of course. Because they don't use it anymore. Originally the politically correct term for the mentally handicapped was "mongoloid" but that began to be used as a slur so they changed the politically correct term for the mentally handicapped to be "retard", which just means slow, but that began to be used as a slur too so they changed the politically correct term to "mentally disabled" but that also began to be used as a slur so now they've changed to politically correct term to "neurodivergent". That too will be a slur soon enough.

I am also not online except for this cursed place, so my vocab is probably becoming something of a culture+time capsule. "slaps" and "banger" are the terms I've noticed popping up in my own real life bubble the most. Figure it's just one of the many amusing things about aging or being around a long time.
>Did you also noticed that people stopped using "bro" and started using "bruh"? or "breh".
bruh has a different use than bro, bruh is used when something silly or unbelievable happens like "bruh this enemy just deleted my entire health bar in one hit"
Surprisingly, “dude” is the only piece of slang that’s stuck with me almos my entire life. I almost have to stop myself from saying it in places where it doesn’t fit.
I spent a significant portion of my life between DFW and north Louisiana. There's a name for the effect where you become more conscious of a word or thing and suddenly notice it everywhere.
Sjw used it because it was vaguely black sounding and gender neutral plural. We started using it because it's southern and there's a large contigent of dixiboos on the site so it rubbed off.
It became a part of ebonics and zoomers adopted it in general through systemic Black propaganda through social and state media along with phrases like fr, yo, ay, no cap, etc.
zoomers are the best thing to happen this country in a long time. I dont remember the last time a generation was this derisive and entertaining. no cap on god bruh fr SixxNine Blicky and Travis Scott we trust.
Y'all is mine and I will be cold in the ground before I let young people and blacks have it. I didn't care about Southern Heritage at all until they started trying to take it from me.
my secret guilty pleasure is that I actually like saying " Guys, Gals and Non-Binary pals". theres just something so fun about dipping your toes in the current zietgeist pollock painting of nonsense.
bonus points that it makes some people on here triggered enough to go out of their way to give me a (you). I never would have thought that the key to trolling nowadays is to actually take the correct end of "politically appropriate" spectrum instead of the incorrect end but here we are.
morons also say y'all, speaking of morons why is everyone using so much moron speak the past few years. I know people have for a long time but it's so much worse now fr fr no cap shit be bussin and all that ebonics shit
It started as ebonics being used for humor because it sounded silly to non-blacks when used sparingly but became a political shibboleth after the mid-2010s.
I think that similar to 'safe horny' there's a 'safe South' aesthetic that these people create, a kind of ultra harmless happy-go-lucky brokeback yeehaw version of the American South absent all the problematic stuff like guns, racism, and of course any kind of actual hardship that comes with rural living. I think it's a growing trend now that Cali refugees are infesting Texas and are trying to assimilate into the culture.
It's the same shit. You just don't want to be seen as a fratboy cause you're a pussy.

Humiliating yourself with either explicitly being a paypig to an only fans whore or just posting about >dommy mommy, peg my prostate, I'm so weak and worthless, someone euthanise me by facesitting >oh yes, I love used and damaged goods past expiration date mmm, give me those sloppy !seconds
I'm reminded of this one post on lit or someplace like that by a guy who lamented what happened to the femdom scene. Like the way it transformed from eating pussy and liking women who initiate sex to whatever the fuck it is nowadays.
People are having a very hard time describing it exactly, but I would define it as sexuality with male passivity.
I don't think it comes down to how explicit it is. You can have a girl show her tits in a game and it still be safe horny as long as she's the most active participant.
Normal horny would be a young guy peering into the girls' shower room to catch a glimpse of sideboob. Safe horny would be the same girl offering to strip for the guy in exchange for money.
When the natural roles of a sexually aggressive male and a chaste female are subverted, that's safe horny. When mystique and romance is removed and sex is made into a commodity, that's safe horny. When attitudes towards sex are reflective of modern promiscuity, with virginity shamed and casual sex the expected norm, that's safe horny.
Huh. So it wasn't literally safe but rather politically safe.

Basically what journos and twitterfags find acceptable to be horny about. they'd cry about sexualization in gaming in one breath, then go "step on me and choke me mommy" over some hag in the next breath.

We've been saying "yall" on the east coast for a very long time It's definitely a southern thing but we've been using it for a really long time too for as long as I can remember

Just one more retarded Internet slang word. You don't get why "YALL" is a thing, and I immediately dismiss anyone who unironically says shit like "sexo" as a braindead mongrel. Same thing.
People just say "ya'll" when they're in an argumentative mood but have to make themselves look nonchalant. It's sassy and makes it sound like you "don't give a fuck".
Search "ya'll" on twitter and all you get is people doing "epic dunks" and "mic drops".

Nah that's wrong
You're just one of those insane 4channigs who use twitter as a political shitflinging board so your only exposure to people saying "yall" is when they're flinging political shit
My guess is it has to do with twitter’s character restriction. Aside from “you all” being an inclusive term which promotes interaction and replies, “yall” is just shorter to type. Therefore it is the preferred wording.
Intellectual incestuousness due to millennial writers hailing from an extremely specific geographic, ideological, and socioeconomic milieu while simultaneously rejecting other influences due to outside influences not aligning with their extremely specific milieu's values.
We grew up in the most consumerist decade by far, right as politically correct culture was sweeping the first world. So we ended up as brand worshipers while becoming extremely sensitive to identity and racial politics. Then the 2008 housing crash happened and it shaped our future before we even became adults, and we were the first people to have to deal with those repercussions while having zero income or property which is why millennials are so obsessed with rent and leaning more on the communist side of thinking while staying pretty poor.
Because we had much easier lives. The true heart and passion in writing stems from past hardships.
>Y'all
stopped reading right there, kys millenioid
I unironically miss the dumb edgy era in western gaming. The Gears of Wars, the God of Wars, the Devil May Cry reboots. They at least had no pretenses to being anything more than they were, and even if they did, like the DMC reboot, it was cringy in a funny way. Millennials can't even into so bad it's good cringekino.
Tone. The Saints Row cast act very holier than thou and vindicated by their acts of criminality and straight up murder as well as never taking a second to stop making jokes.
Garret knows he's a jerk and only makes a snide remark once every 30 minutes or even hour and mostly just focuses on doing his job and being bitter about his job.
Garret is also just plainly written more human: Not making jokes when shit get's real, has some feelings of remorse or fear depending on what occurs in the narrative and so on.
Honestly, I get that to a degree characters are just tools to convey a message or point. But it's like a lot of current writers take that to the extreme and think so little about the characters themselves outside of what kind of quota they need to fill.
gen xers wrote about rent way more because their parents were literal boomers who kicked them out the second they turned 18 because they thought that was tradition even though their parents didn't do it to them and having non-multi generational homes has never been normal anytime in history. If you watch or read much gen x media it's largely glorifying destitute living or complaining about rent. The more lighthearted media (sitcoms, etc) just write an excuse about them having a rent controlled apartment or just having most of the main cast be wealthy.
>spend a decade making fun of antony burch >zoomer decides to make a video >apparently it's us now who bear the blame of the stupidity of the soigearbocks writing team
>mutt doesn't understand something >still assured his version is superior
Every fucking time, probably you consider your morons are better than african
Gen X writing is different. It at least pretended to be genuinely edgy. While one of the key characteristics of millennial writing is that it is extremely safe all things considered.
Fight Club was written by a boomer.
You have no idea which generations wrote what.
Watch Dogs 2 was written and directed by gen X
Forspoken was written by a boomer (almost X)
Saints Row Reboot writers are gen X
The only bad millennials I can think of are Anthony Burch and his group.
No, but maybe. It really depends on if Zoomer parents realize and acknowledge the mistakes of their parents, and go in the radically opposite direction. We saw this with Gen-X raising Millennials. Boomers were kind of absent and Gen-X went in the complete opposite direction and became obsessed with "safety" and constantly coddling their children. Who do you think invented the "participation trophy"?
The older Zoomers will probably be shit parents but the ones who are 10/11 right now will probably be pretty decent.
you kidding? have you seen these little shits in public lately? either glued to some dogshit ipad app or running wild with autism.
the earth is doomed.
Yeah it doesn't matter how they are when they're kids. It matters how they are when they're 35 and having kids of their own. You could see a radical hatred for technology & media. I know if I ever have kids they're not getting a phone or an ipad or any of that shit and they're going to a montessori school/homeschool. And im only 23. I'm sure a lot of people my age feel the same way.

I think older zoomer kids are fucked, since those zoomers are basically mini millenials. But really young zoomer kids may come out completely different than you imagine. Sooner or later there’s gonna be a rebellion culture on narcisstic social media culture, it’s just how things go.
Look up the genre called litrpg. They're episodic fantasy stories set in fantasy worlds inspired by video games. The main problem with this is they have no fabula, the plot goes on forever. It's a step back to the pulp fiction of early 20th century America.
A lot of kids shows (especially remakes) have gen z references. The New Looney Tunes cartoon was basically what if Bugs got iPad the show and it went on for years before the new HBO show even infecting the new Space Jam
I don't know if you ever watched the Proud Family back in the day but the new one, Louder and Prouder, unironically uses the phrase "Zamn" like it means something. Loud House makes having a VR headset in every house seem normal. A staggering 80% of newer cartoons use the flossing fortnite dance for no fucking reason other than you can't copyright a dance and it's "hip". Wait a minute. "hip" isn't a thing. the new word is "bussin". Things are so much worse than you think outside of vidya
>Every discussion ever about generational gaps is about how Boomers/Millenials/Zoomers ruined society >Gen X is never brought up and always ignored as if they don't exist
Why is that?
i'm a content writer (out of most gigs due to big tech deploying algos).
1. video game writing jobs pay like complete shit unless
2. nepotism hires for certain demographic (i don't mean garden gnomes, they dominate screenwriting which pays better)
3. no one normal wants to touch video games, just like no one competent wants to program them
these are bottom of the barrel writing gigs, this AAA stuff.
The reason why so many games (and media) sucks is because of the writer's hubris and disdain for the audience. They think they're better than you and are mad that they can only get paid making media for people they think are sub-human. The new Saints Row reboot hates the Saints Row audience. It's actively meant to piss you off. The gays at Volition got mad that their Agents of Mayhem game flopped hard and their company went bankrupt so now they're trying to get payback on the consumer.
I don't know if this is true but I was watching some review of the latest update for the game and they've apparently patched a bunch of "Saints Row" memorabilia into the game for display in the crib. I put Saints Row in quotes because there is absolutely nothing from SR1&2. All the trophies and references and shit are to SR3&4. If that's not fucking contempt I don't know what is. It's well known the key people behind SR1&2 are long gone from Volition but we're starting to get a good idea of just how much the current crew of Volition dislike that old crew. Millennials really aren't big fan of the "standing on the shoulders of giants" idea. They hate the people that came before them.
And one of the pieces of memorabilia was facing the wrong way towards a wall. the perfect metaphor for them turning their back on you. this game was made purely out of spite.
I hate how younger Zoomers play video games in general. It's like I'm watching an extension of a YouTuber and their video in real time. They even spout lines like it's an advertisement.
no one who "writes well" will find making games worth it in current year. anything with good writing will get passed over by consumers and investors alike, unless they're japanese of course
Millenials aren't one person, fucking mongoloid , it's a therm that summarize certain features of the generation. Johnny Rebel and John Lennon were both boomers
Go look up any recent statistics asking thread on the archive. Ganker is like 90% zoomers now that really hate being called zoomers so they keep desperately lying about the starting year.
I guarantee you that games like Saints Row reboot and Redfall have Gen X writers who are trying to appeal to millenials who let their student debt and lack of housing become a personality.
>millenials who let their student debt and lack of housing become a personality.
Is this even a thing? I'm 31 and haven't heard anyone my age bracket complain about student debt irl for years now.
That’s because student debt has been frozen since covid and now it’s a political weapon used by the politicians so it’ll likely be kicked down the road for a long time.
I was more of the opinion that most people get a somewhat useful degree that lands them a proper job that pays like $60-70k a year. Since they don't live in HUSTLE AND BUSTLE of NYC, LA or Bay area, that $60-70k allows most people to pay for their non-prestige college costs. I went to B tier in-state college + law school and paid only $49k in total which came out to about $65k worth of debt + costs and interest.
I don’t think that most writers or creative people have much control over these IP’s, anyway. They are more of less given a target demographic and a basic blueprint to
aim that is decided upon by the big wigs corporation CEO’s and chairmen, I thought it was basic and obvious that many of these people are not in full control? They generally write and make things according to what caters the most most to basic mainstream appeal, you don’t hardly even see anything that is very novel and unique anymore, it’s mostly just the same big franchises and already established brands, really.
I don’t know how much these people know about marketing but it obviously factors pretty big into the equation, I imagine that it’s not very fulfilling writing or coming up with creative or artistic ideas that are based solely on how well something will sell, that kind of takes the love right out of it.
Millennials are less the problem. It's just that only woke-ass scripts being the ones that get picked up by corps. Blame the political groundwork that laid the way for this garbage.
>expensive suit in a bad taste >wonders if he can make a rent
This picture nails it.
Many of my millenial friend are like this. They complain about not having money but at the same time they eat out more often than not and buy a lot of overpriced clothes.
On Friday I've been at bar with several friends. I've met a girl there who had admitted she's got $2 left in her account. It didn't stop her to spend most of her wallet on the beers. All I know is - she plans to postpone* her rent and visit parents** this week.
*t/l note - "postpone rent" means "be late with rate"
**"visit parents" means "leech off parents"
a combination of executive not giving a damn about quality, over focusing on marketing nepotism, treating writers like they are disposable and producing way more media now then in the past so people are picking up scripts that we would skip over in the past for not being good enough.
Most new hires in the game industry are zoomers, most senior devs are millienials, most owners are gen X
Most game writers would probably be millenials
american culture is the global culture
when i was a uni in the uk people would watch the superbowl and celebrate thanksgiving
american football was a popular sport played and there were even cheer leaders
many worshiped california as the promised land
in the uk american words, terms and expressions have taken over, there was even a famous video of someone demanding a police officers badge number
people also try to call 911 in emergencies
the same for continental europe all the young people speak english in american accents and use american words
if you use non american writers now you would just use americanised writers
No one does anything 'till the turd starts to smell, fuckers don't let up 'till everyone's had a taste, and instead of removing it they argue over who laid it.
Millenials are the last people who lived and experienced the times when things were still good. Why would they be the ones who ended up ruining things? Millenials are the ones lamenting the downfall of entertainment media.
I don't think troll's remorse applies because normal things simply are okay. People didn't do normal things out of malice, and there's no reason to feel guilty after normal things have been redefined as evil. Anyone who does something like that is dangerous because apparently their brains can be rewired into supporting or opposing anything.
Yep, Marx is unironically the most important figure of modern history.
He literally defined pretty much ALL politics, economics, sociology, philosophy, histiography that came after him.
Modern politics is still like 40% seething over "Marxists". Marx BTFO'ed Econfags so hard that the entire field remains a joke to this day because they have to rely on cope axioms to not accept Marx was like 90% right.
Adam Smith still going strong with "tariff bad". Well, at least until the next global war completely sunders the global economic structure. Keynes to this day looks more and more like the underpants gnomes wherein the ???? step is "Don't worry people who are making money will -definitely- be happy to give their fair share back in investment and tax"
inflation going up is useful if you want to pay off big debts you've accrued (and are still getting paid in line WITH said inflation of course) If that $5000 debt you took two years ago can now be paid in a single paycheck: That's pretty great, for you.
It tends to make people spend more (because things cost more)
That's kind of it. Inflation is terrible. Deflation can also be terrible because people historically get REALLY upset when you pay them "less" but the current way most economies work mean deflation is a fucking myth.

I mean petty observation aside the economy doesn't want you to get paid in line with inflation because that's a really great way to cause inflation. Unfortunately, since people need to live and like being paid in line with inflation, they tend to (at least initially) ask for pay rises, at least in competitive markets you're fucked as a labour drone but hey you're used to that.

That makes your information extra worthless since you're not "in with it" and prone to misunderstanding the youth much like the writers of the Saint's Row remake did.

To phrase it in a way you'd understand: "Uhuhuhuhuh. You're old."
It does help that nobody has actually read Das Kapital and lived so if you want to be or comprehend Marxist communism you kind of have to read the pampthlet. At least you're better off than reading the little red book. I've read that and either the translation is fucking dogshit and/or Mao wrote like a fucking child.

They're all a bunch of dudes pushing 50 and they still wear shit like Buddy Holly glasses and gauge earrings. Those are GenXers my guy.

Why are millennials so dreadful at writing compared to boomers?
most brainwashed by low tier media
Boomer media to be exact
I resent that. I'm a millennial and I write pretty well.
Name 1 millennial game with good writing
I would ask you to define a millennial game first.
I'd say games written from the PS4 generation onwards would be millennial written.
I’m a millennial and I was 23 when the ps4 came out.
You think the games industry is run by people in their early to mid 20s?
The youngest millennial is 27 now. Yes the vast majority of video game developers are millennials now.
Source?
source for what?
If "why is the youngest millennial 27" then just use math, gay.
If "why the majority of developers are millennials" then use your fricking head. Most office workers are between 25-40
Nope, see here you fucking moron. That’s not how facts work.
>gen x
JESSE WE NEED TO COOK
why are boomers and zoomers brown women?
ok? Hows that relevant. The oldest ones are nearly 40.
anything I don't like
it's like pornography
I knows it when I sees it
woke shit
Now define that. Dig down until you get past the buzzword topsoil into something of substance, like a clay layer of authentic thought
Shit that pushes diversity and acceptance of all races and genders when it doesn't have a real to be there, it's diversity for the sake of diversity
>when it doesn't have a real to be there, it's diversity for the sake of diversity
What's a 'real' reason to be there?
How awful
You know, shit with tags like Female Protagonist, Story Driven, Soulslike, Loot, Cinematic, LGBTQIA2S+, Singleplayer Always Online. Bonus points for a steam refund policy warning.
Not till you define what a woman is
Someone with female presenting features. It's like how when you have men and women's restrooms, you're really making it for who is presenting as masculine or feminine. Butch lesbos are getting kicked out of women's restrooms.
Disco Elysium. But you are just going to pull the ol' reliable
>i said good writing
here, aren't you?
>whodunnit
>first time you see the killer is when he is revealed as the killer
Lolno.
mystery != whodunnit
Are you implying that finding out who fired the shot doesn't drive much of the game's plot?
No. I'm flat out saying you don't know understand that a whodunnit is a specific type of mystery and just because a story has a mystery doesn't mean it's a whodunnit. Ever seen the movie Seven, for example? That's a mystery film. It's about trying to catch a serial killer by following clues. But it's not a whodunnit. There's no way for the audience to deduce the identity of the killer before the characters do. That's the distinction. That doesn't make Seven a badly written film.
>He doesn't know
Then why are you here? Write some good shit moron I'm sick of this garbage we've got. Be the change.
Intellectual incestuousness due to millennial writers hailing from an extremely specific geographic, ideological, and socioeconomic milieu while simultaneously rejecting other influences due to outside influences not aligning with their extremely specific milieu's values.
This is a pretty accurate assumption, along with swearing, swearing has become white noise to fill in gaps of writing, Or to show how ‘adult’ your characters are. It’s tiring really, swearing should really be rarer in peoples writing otherwise its impact, its key punching factor for what is considered a ‘swear’, is evaporated.
Popular media is the only thing socially acceptable to consume, everything else is usually lost on most people unless they’re also involved with your niche audience, but when everything that’s popular to indulge has the same intellectual value of as a waffle iron instruction manual, then the many people that have the opportunity to work in a professional writing environment, they’ve been so thoroughly stewed in the basic and bland material for years, they don’t know what’s actually quality they just know what ‘works’. What made them entertained but not ‘why’.
That’s why audiences clamour and hold the most just barely above average things as gospel because for the last 13 years barely any media has done anything of substance, or have been remakes of what worked, or sequels of things that worked before. That goes into a different context of committee design, a lot of the most popular modern media is given way too much budget, therefore they have to guarantee to both show their investors they’ve used that budget but make sure earn it back too, which means minimum risk, having proper intrigue or conflict, having stories or characters that may turn people away, is inherently a risk most companies cannot and will not take. Which means that run every aspect of a product though a filter made of dramatic overview, ‘this might offend, change it or cut it’, ‘Does the villain really need to do that? It could upset people, can you change it?’, ad nauseam
We grew up in the most consumerist decade by far, right as politically correct culture was sweeping the first world. So we ended up as brand worshipers while becoming extremely sensitive to identity and racial politics. Then the 2008 housing crash happened and it shaped our future before we even became adults, and we were the first people to have to deal with those repercussions while having zero income or property which is why millennials are so obsessed with rent and leaning more on the communist side of thinking while staying pretty poor.
>we
lol no, gays like you fell for the bullshit. Plenty of us are ready to execute NPCs like you
You won't do shit. Ten seconds and the feds nab your ass.
different sensabilities for different generations. Rick and Morty was very edgy in both understandings of the word when it came to the type of content to depict and references.
Its funny to see people pine for "oh so relatable" theme as the apex of comedy. its a type of comedy that will be VERY VERY dated in the times to come.
Comedy practically doesn't exist in the west anymore because it has been neutered so hard. Not only in games or movies but in general.
>Comedy practically doesn't exist in the west anymore

>in the times to come.
It already is, zoomers and alphas have been clowning on millenials for their #adulting bullshit for some time now.
The worst western shows humour pales in comparison to foreign humour. Take Jap humour for example

It can go in the trash as well

No matter what anti-westeners say american shows are still miles ahead in terms of comedy compared to japanese humor

This webm being so absurd is what makes it pretty funny
>some skyrim castle environment but with anime characters
>retarded dance
>blonde girl's chin clipping into her neck
>facial "animations"
>that one dude in front of the dancers clapping while the rest just stands there in their idle animations
Plus the webm's title and the fact that it IS real
Glad you thought that was funny because that's 1 out of 2 jokes Japanese devs will ever do
You will understand Japanese humor let it be a 1 year or 20 years old game. Western humor becomes outdated in a few years at best because it is so current.
I really gotta ask. Do they really find boke and tsukkomi skits to be funny?
Not surprising coming from a generation who thinks using their imagination is ironic.
I don't think that something being relatable is ever going to become dated in itself, or that it is a bad thing to go for, be it for comedic or dramatic effect. But the relatable actions need to be universal, and not tied to some current trend at the time of writing, unless that current trend is your main theme. Much of what Gilgamesh or Odysseus do in their tales is relatable, for example. Odysseus only gets into the whole mess to begin with because he can't keep himself from bragging when things go his way. That's how you do relatable characters/situations.
>Odysseus only gets into the whole mess to begin with because he can't keep himself from bragging when things go his way.
Doesn't he deliberately pick a fight with Poseidon? He trashes his temple and kills his son or something?
It's been a while, but I think the whole thing starts when he blinds the cyclops, who is one of poseidons sons. He tells him his name so he can remember the guy who fucked him up, and that comes back to haunt him.
Isn't this after Ody pissed off poseidon? It happens during the trojan war where Odysseus takes full credit for beating the trojans so Poseidon sends a storm on his ship that takes them to cyclops cannibal island.
Yeah, Odysseus smugly claims to be the mastermind behind the victory despite Poseidon giving him the idea of using a wooden horse. He also refuses to pay tribute to the gods so Poseidon gets triggered.
Didn't he tell the cyclops his name is no one? I think Poseidon just knew what Odysseus did, because god and shit.
Gilgamesh and Enkidu
Because we had much easier lives. The true heart and passion in writing stems from past hardships.
I kinda think this plays into even gameplay stuff as Aonuma said he grew up with no toys and that made him get into creating his own fun which helped him with coming up with ideas for Zelda games. Same with Miyamoto playing in the woods.
Boomers took normalcy for granted and the new crop takes the "I'm miserable but nothing I do is wrong" approach.
sitcom writing syndrome, this is what happens when you watch nothing but the office and its always sunny, all day everyday.
Who cares, they'll be out of a job soon thanks to the writer strike not getting any support.
people will come up with a bunch of reasons like the MCU and other shitty media having an influence, or various factors that mean these people have no concept of money or hardship and live in a bubble, but what it all comes down to is nepotism. writing is one of those "anyone can do it" jobs which means it gets filled up with all the loser retard children and friends of VIPs, with the occasional diversity hire thrown in.
post irony is cancer compared to Xer nihilism
No experience or other material to draw inspiration upon.
How come in these sort of discussions it's always about Boomers or Millenials ruining everything but not Gen X'ers?
They're culturally irrelevant. Every other generation gets skipped. It went from GI generation to boomers, skipping the aptly named silent generation, now it's going from boomers to millennials, skipping gen x. Zoomers will probably be skipped as well when the cultural torch is passed by millennials to gen alpha forty years from now.
No they aren’t, the lead writer for forspoken is a fucking genxr. I work in advertising and all the studios are run by genxrs.
It’s retarded dumbfuck cattlemoron zoomer dumbasses falling for TikTok propaganda that makes them hate millenials which are nearly as fucked as they are. What a worthless fucking generation, have a nice day.
How are you liking the mouse utopia fren?
>Zoomers will probably be skipped as well when the cultural torch is passed by millennials to gen alpha forty years from now.
Don't think so. Gen Z and Gen Alpha will be roughly the same size given the birth rate trends. Even though there are more Millenial women who can give birth to Gen Alphas than there were Gen X women who could have given birth to Zoomers, Millenial women are just not having babies like Gen X women did.
The real question is 'what happened to gen y?'.
Gen Y are millenials.
zoomers wouldn't know a gen-xer if he blew his flannel-clad head off with a shotgun
Too busy posting about UFOs and poisoned table water on facebook.
For me, it’s because I’m terrified of failure and embarrassing myself. What happens if I invest time, effort, and emotional integrity into creating something and then the end result being as ridiculous as the shit in the OP?
That would be fucking devastating.
They haven't been through anything besides a hypersensitive culture war on whose the biggest victim.
they grew up with Marvel tier writing where characterization and emotional depth is confused with sarcastic humor and wit
they really love writing characters that cant shut the fuck up. look at the new dead island game.

Only slightly related, but when was the last time any of us saw a moderately well-written romance in a western game? Or like a mildly believable one.
Wolfenstein. It's basically "You kill nazis? I kill nazis too. And I've seen you've got a big cock. Want to fuck?"
Then they went and ruined it by pretending these people are deeply in love.
IDK but i do know they like making every character into a dyke or a gay and it's extremely obnoxious. I'm so sick of the "Oh my god! I just found out I'm a lesbian!" shit.
Has there ever been a well written gay relationship in a game? One not based off a diversity checklist or retcon "I just realized I'm gay!" ?
There is a Phantasmagoria 2 thread up right now
you tell em, pedro! ARIBBA ARIBBA!
There's a teenager kidnapped and molested by an officer of a raiding army who eventually escapes and becomes a prostitute. in FNV
I genuinely can't remember. Mass Effect? The Witcher? The writers for these games can't even get female characters written right, which is like half of the romance needed.
Yeah, I was thinking of those two as well, but I can't help but feel like the first two witchers are kind of cheating because eastern europe is so different from america which is what people usually mean by "the western gaming industry".
>moderately well-written romance in a western game
13 years ago, in FNV you deliver eggs of progressively more dangerous animals for red lucy and once you prove yourself to be true alpha male apex predator, you get the privilege of fertilizing her own eggs.
I haven't. It seems like every one is the woman being an unlikeable cunt to the other guy. Then you do a fetch quest mission. Then you hear her sob story. Then you two are in love. That's genuinely how it's been for the last 10+ years. And what's amazing is that even though people can't write romance these days it's just as hard to romance people in real life. A woman will tell you what she wants and leave out the word "attractiveness" because it's taboo to ask for a handsome or cute spouse. Then you have forty guys in her DM's hitting every point she wants but because they have bitch tits, resting bitch face, or serial killer eyes they get passed.
>they grew up with Marvel tier writing
They grew up with Joss Whedon. I never got Joss Whedon. I was the prime demographic and everyone my age seemed to love Buffy and Angel and Firefly but not me. The fucking dialogue just drove me mad. Reminder that Anita Sarkeesian did her thesis on Joss Whedon. These people really fucking loved him.
>These people really fucking loved him.
I find it funnier that he still had a career even after his wife exposed him as a cheating bitch and the people that worked with him in Buffy outted him as a genuinely unpleasant human being.
But only after he was accused as a racist, he disappeared from the face of the earth.
It's fucking hilarious how pandering to these people only makes them police you harder. You can never have an airtight enough filter to not get cancelled for something you said once 20 years ago, it's just a matter of time before somebody finds something to get upset about.
Lack of life experience due to them living in sheltered bubbles for most of their lives
Millennials and zoomers fear sincerity. Nothing they make feels 'real'. They don't put their real thoughts of feelings into their work, everything is a joke or ironic or some other built-in cope mechanism.
Nobody cares about any of their shit.
I think it’s mostly this.
Sincerity invites risk, and risk invites failure. By acting like they don’t care, they remove agency for the shittiness of their work and that prevents them from learning how to grow. And so they get stuck in a loop of perpetual stagnancy, and that’s where things have been for the better part of a decade.
Can you blame them? Every boomer instilled into their millenial children that failure is the worst possible thing, worse than death itself. Then millenials reached the age of 30 without having a tenth of the purchasing power their parents had when they were 30 and go into depression. Better to not even care. Let it all burn
garden gnomes have a tighter psychological grip on them
maybe you should be taking notes from the garden gnomes
i did that in college
nepotism. there's a noticeable decline in writing across all visual media; compare 2000s shows to shows nowadays. plus i doubt modern TV show writers actually read older works or study dramatic structure and what have you.
notice how the largest IPs out there came from one person with a vision (harry potter, game of thrones, star wars, lord of the rings).
there shouldn't be whole teams of writers, writing shouldn't be done in comittees
>t. guy who might write a book someday
Something I've noticed about millennials is that they have this desperate need to "say something", but they also feel like everything worthwhile has already been said. They want to be "deep, man!" but dont have any life experience to actually say anything meaningful.
That’s because depth is something that happens organically as a piece of work is being made. It’s not something that can be injected into the work in question like basting a turkey, or at least there’s no technique that I’m aware of that allows you to do that. You just have to love what you’re working on enough to pour your heart and soul into it. People who are moved by it will recognize the “depth” even if it isn’t really there.
>there shouldn't be whole teams of writers, writing shouldn't be done in comittees
With ironically one exception: scripted comedy often works best with multiple people coming up with jokes and tying them up together. See Simpsons (older ones) and decent sitcoms. Obviously the writers need to be good, though.
Boomers didn't have the internet telling them what's cool or not, so if they wanted to write something dumb and play it 100% straight until it became good, they could do it.
Now we have a bunch of rules and blueprints, and a very miserable bunch of people who make fun of everything that even remotely attempts to do something. It's probably hard to write knowing everything you do will be hated unless it was already good to begin with.
I'm willing to bet even if the game was well written, half of you fuckers will call it shit just to call it shit, only to come back years later, after the franchise is already dead and act like you liked it back then.
>I'm willing to bet even if the game was well written, half of you fuckers will call it shit just to call it shit, only to come back years later, after the franchise is already dead and act like you liked it back then.
true, just look at the state of this place
There's probably a lot of millennials who are good writers. Now in addition to your usual cast of nepotism hires, you also have diversity hires. So everyone on the writing staff is incompetent or a woman, which isn't something you can lay at the feet of a whole generation.
Nepotism is a messy game. If that really is one of the reasons things are so shitty right now then the people in charge need to figure out where the cracks in this system are and get it under control.
can someone name some games with fantastic writing by boomers? genuinely curious
hm. thought so
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. Written by people with classical literature degrees, and it shows. Also a lot of it was written by a woman, who managed to write good archetypal male characters without emasculating them or upstaging them with girlboss self-inserts. I miss the early 2000's.
The boomer who wrote Soul Reaver also wrote Forspoken
One of the writers, and clearly she now has some kind of undiagnosed malignant brain tumor which doesn't erase her fine body of work in the early 2000's. I'm going to need you to be a bit sensible and tactful about this OK anon? It's not Amy's fault her brain is damaged
Wait what. She did?
Yeah it's difficult to believe I know but let's all be adults here, obviously there's a medical reason for this lapse in skill. We will remember the good times when Amy was based
No you lazy cunt. Go look at games that came out in the 90s and 00s and compare them to today.
unironically morrowind
Morrowind is ironic meta bullshit. It's just not trying to be funny about it with quirky characters. Objectively a badly written game. You're a stupid.
Another win for Saint's Row. Huzzah!
I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream
Daggerfall
Oddworld Abes Exodus
The real shame is even the more schlock and action focused games of decades ago have better writing than most modern products, I’d say fucking Pyjama Sam is more intellectually thought provoking than The Last Of Us, SWAT 4 has more visual storytelling in one level than God Of War 4-5 combined with more impact on the player
they dont read. simple as. try getting anyone who isnt a bookworm to read fuckin shakespeare. not happening.
100% completely unironically it's social media, I am not memeing.
Writers now congregate in tiny bubbles, they are not exposed to any experiences, outside of what algorithms provide them with, aka the same shit over and over. Their horizons are tiny, they only read, speak with and meet with people, who are carbon copies of them. It's not exclusively writer problem, but general population problem. This is why society is infantilized so much now. "Growing up" is experiencing and learning new things, getting new perspectives. You can't achieve it if your life is directed by algorithm, guarding you from anything new and providing you with sludge of content identical to the previous one.
They didn't read even Bible
because for millenials you don't get hired for being competent or capable, you get hired because you have a lot of acronyms in your twitter bio and look like a nutjob
We cope with the emptiness of our lives by layering everything in a thick sludge of irony, to the point where any kind of sincerity comes across as cringe or weird.
Boomers grew up with boredom. Boredom leads to thinking which leads to creativity. Gen X was the first generation that got their dopamines fried by things like Star Wars and 80s cartoons. Millenials never stood a chance with video games, CGI movies and the internet. Lterally every zoomer has ADHD because of smartphones, Fortnite and Marvel movies
Tim Schafer showed that millennial writing isn't dictated by age. He went from being funny to being ironically self-aware humorous with intentionally bad pun jokes
Tim Schafer was never funny. All the way back at the very beginning he was writing self-aware lol so random shit.
>with intentionally bad pun jokes
You've never played Monkey Island, have you?
Play Psychonauts 1 and 2 back to back and you'll see it. It's a totally different brand of humour.
I haven't, but I've played 5 other games he wrote and they weren't cringeworthy.
Because the boomers in charge promote the millennials that serve the goyslop that boomers want to sell.
>boomers
Gen X wrote GTA you chode.
it's because "generations" are a made up thing by people trying to sell something and aren't used by any organization like StatsCan or the U.S. Census bureau who use demographics to accuratly describe attitudes and trends in society by age group and have repeatedly put out statements on how "generations" aren't a real thing.
The terms "silent generation", "greatest generation", "Baby boomer", "Gen-X", "Millennials", "GenZ" are all made up bullshit to innacuratly compartmentalize history in a reductionist way, ussually by marketing agencies or authors, trying to cash in on peoples ignorance about demographics with books and talking circuits.
The "Silent Generation" was invented by Time Magazine in 1951 to sell magazine subscriptions
The "Greatest Generation" was popularized by Tom Brokaw to sell his 1998 book called 'The Greatest Generation', the term taken from a speech to Congress by U.S. Army General James Van Fleet in 1953.
Gen-X was popularized by Canadian author Douglas Coupland in 1991 to sell his book 'Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture'. He took the term from the title of a 1964 book called 'Generation X'
>boomers
Boomers never wrote anything good. It was the generation before them that actually did decent stuff. Boomers were partying and wasting themselves in hedonism when most good film and books were made. They weren't interested in maintaining human culture, so it didn't transfer to millenials.
>you are not a true revolutionary if you have a job
>writer Gary Whitta
>born 1972
Written by GenX'er.
You are dumb as shit. Most of the most culturally significant movies were written and directed and starred literal boomers.
Look at the media boomers grew up with, original ideas that are now just being remade endlessly. Millennials grew up on shit remakes, unnecessary sequels, and marvel. Basically their slop is just regurgitated boomer slop
regurgitating media and references instead of real life experiences
Millennials are deathly afraid of being earnest. You cannot make kino without having your soul in it
Millennials personality is entirely based on the saturday morning cartoons they used to watch as kids and the dwarf warrior from lord of the rings, plus thinking they're entitled of changing the world for some reason (main character syndrome I guess)
It's not even millennial writing. It is early gen X'ers pretending to be millennials pretending to be zoomers.
Generations are fake and you're mentally ill
Yes we do in fact live in a society
This. Why are we pretending like 35 year old millenials have any power whatsoever in the entertainment industry? Most big projects are still being headed by gen xers in their mid 40s to mid 50s, if not downright boomers in their late 60s and 70s. They do not want to pass on the torch to millenials no matter what.
Lack of life experience on top of the material they perpetually love pulling from being awful
>bunch of people with white collar jobs
>we are... le resistance!
This ruined Xenoblade 2 for me, I hate harem shit.
>the game's main heroine was designed by literal porn artist
>it was ruined for me because they did harlem
cmere white boi
I like the implication that the women wouldn't just devolve into attempting to kill each other's children out of envy and/or spite like in reality
You never played the game.
Is that what happens or is it harem shit where women are apparently perfectly content to share a single boner?
NTA, but for two of the characters it makes sense, since they are basically two halves of the same soul. The third, the silver haired one, is the outlier though
>filtered by Chad Rex

>filtered by Chad Rex
>Even if he had just one wife, you wouldn’t get either of the other two, virgin.
i thought this was a meme image. this isn't real right?
The beginning of this game was hilarious with how it immediately starts with her in a court room and then she gets jumped by a bunch of morons who she owes money. Got an honest laugh out of me
yeah it's so fucking bad, she also doesn't grab her money bag while the house is on fire even though it's right next to her with a handle and goes on to save her cat , which honestly could probably escape way easier than her.
that isn't millennial that's literally marvel comic dialog
guess who writes marvel comics now
I decided to stop taking any of you fags by word and did some actual "research" and by that I mean a basic Goggle search.
This is the head writer of Forespoken. He was born in 1972.
People born mid-1960's through early 1980's is Gen X.
The vast majority of the people you fags complain about are actually Gen X. Not all of course, but most.
Decided to also look up the head writer of the shit Saints Row reboot. Admiteddly it's hard finding an exact age but just looking at his fucking face and how long he's been in the industry, it's fair to say he's Gen X minimum.
Also worked on 3 so yeah, this guy ruined SR.
>Thread about cringe writing
>Gen X wrote the cringe writing
"b-b-but the rest of the people making the game is millenial"
Retard.
are you the type of gay who sees a group of morons looting and then cherry picks the single white guy?
>Show two examples of proof whilst everyone is just talking shit
>"that doesn't count"
You're the gay that is calling all the looting as "simple peacful protesting".
Here's the statistic gay, you don't like it eat shit and die or post some evidence yourself.
what proof did you provide
>writer of the shit Saints Row reboot
Unrelated but didn't that game have 4 FOUR fucking writers.
How can four fucking people think anything they excreted was good unless they were also just blowing each other.
It had two, some guy named Jason Scott. He may actually be a Millennial but it's hard to get much about him as well. His picture has him look like a sclubby middle-aged man and can go either Millennial or Gen X though I think it's the former.
https://forspoken.fandom.com/wiki/Forspoken
FOUR writers. Even if you cope that two(Gary, Amy) did nothing but shit out the vague concept. That is still two writers for this.
there is a lot to write
world lore
npc dialog
story outline
cutscene dialog
banter dialog
battle dialog
sidequest dialog
item descriptions
beastiary lore
the script itself
most games have multiple writers
FF7 had 5 writers
Was he the guy that immediately tried to save face once everybody called the writing dogshit with "development of the game was rocky" or some equivalent excuse.
Did you not work any corporate job in your life? "Lead writer" (or "lead anything" for that matter), doesn't fucking write anything. It's a higher level position, his work is to direct and supervise writers in general way. He has milenial writing monkeys, who are doing dialogs.
It's his role to approve every line of dialogue, retarded gay. You talk like an intern who's worked 6 months tops and thinks the higher ups don't do anything all day.
Fact of the matter is its his responsibility for the writing to be good. If he doesn't prove read the dialogue it's still his fault cuz he's a shit lead writer
proofread*
>head writer is a black woman or garden gnome
Heh, there's your problem right there.
>head writer is white male gen x
HE DINDU NUFFIN!!
You are one dumb gorilla moron, nothing your moron hands typed contradicts or even relates to my post. It's his job to approve writing, but it's not his job to write thousands of lines of dialog. It's milenials who wrote this trash, and your seething doesn't change that. Whatever reason was behind him approving this shit - it's still milenial monkey writers who produced this garbage.
You are dumber than the dumbest moron, zoomer gay.
It's his job to approve the writing. It's his fault flopspoken is the way it is.
Stop worshipping gen x-ers
Are you schizoprenic? Who are you talking to? Voices in your head?
>It's his job to approve the writing. It's his fault flopspoken is the way it is.
Never said it's not? It's not contradictory to anything I posted. Take meds, retardoid.
You said it’s the fault of millennials. They’re not the ones in charge you fucking idiot. Millennials aren’t the shareholders, they don’t have millions of dollars invested and at stake with these games. You think these gay ass greedy boomers and genxrs would ever give them that? There’s a reason they Stil control less than 5% of the national wealth, millennials don’t have shit. They don’t run shit. They don’t own shit.
You’re stupid as fuck, but I’ll laugh forever at that simple fact, worthless dumbass.
You truly are fucking mental, stop fucking replying to me if all you do is talking with voices in your head. These are my statements:
>milenial writing monkeys, who are doing dialogs
>It's milenials who wrote this trash
>it's still milenial monkey writers who produced this garbage
And your deranged bubbling does not disprove it.
Who are you quoting?
>gen x-er tells the monkeys what to write
>gen x-er approves what the monkeys write
>retarded zoomer: "it's the monkey's fault!!"
let me repeat myself: KYS
>it's the monkey's fault!
Who the fuck are you quoting schizo? I never once typed the word "fault" in my posts. Quote my post right now, you cowardly cunt.
>gen x-er tells the monkeys what to write
Cool reductionism, autismo, however, milenials are not told to "write a dialog that sounds like le hecking epic twitter conversation", they are just told to "write lines for 20-something character" and this is what they produce. You can put part of the blame on him for having too much trust in his monkeys. Never said he is 100% clear? It's still milenials who wrote this. And your seething over this simple factual statement is laughable.
> “write a dialog that sounds like le hecking epic twitter conversation", they are just told to "write lines for 20-something character" and this is what they produce.
Man you really are an arrogant little prick aren’t ya? You have zero idea what you’re talking about yet you triple down.
No, a lead actually DOES define the tone and content. That’s a Leads fucking job. Shut your mouth asshole, you don’t know shit.
>however, milenials are not told to "write a dialog that sounds like le hecking epic twitter conversation", they are just told to "write lines for 20-something character" and this is what they produce.
Do you have proof of this?
>milenials are not told to "write a dialog that sounds like le hecking epic twitter conversation"
This is literally what happens though.
t. knower
You don’t know what a lead does. They literally come up with everything that everyone under them has to follow. They tell the writers what to write and how to write it. The woke cringe garbage comes from ideologically motivated genxrs and boomers WHO ARE STILL ALIVE YOU FUCKING IDIOT, and they are supported and their orders and agenda are carried out by willing millennial AND zoomer acolytes.
Arrogant fucking dipshit.
Oh so now you're pretending to be retarded on top of being retarded, zoomer moron gay?
>Flopspoken was written by a gen x-er
>"EERRHM ACHTUALLY IT WAS WRITTEN BY MILLENIALS UNDER HIM"
>He's the lead writer so anything put in the game is still his responsibility
>"ERRRHM ACHTUALLY I NEVER CONTRADICTED YOU"
kys, gay
God, don't you feel like you're writing bullshit when you do mental gymnastics like this? I'm envious of your lack of self-awareness
People forget Gen X exist and spin its crimes out to boomers and millenials
>Videogame journalist
There's your problem
anon those are the same thing now
millennials were in college when the avengers came out and they decided then and there that this was the apex way to write character dialog.
have any of you dumb zoomer morons thought about the reason this being popular is because your generation also guzzles this kind of drivel by the gallon
That must be why zoomers are reading manga in droves instead of bothering with your propaganda rags.
Written by two boomers and a Gen xir
joss whedon/capeshit writing has ruined a fucking generation
To think I used to like joss whedon during the firefly days. I feel like a guy who knew Hitler in Vienna and liked him back then.
>I feel like a guy who knew Hitler in Vienna and liked him back then
I don't get it, I would've loved him more after Poland, you fucking gay
>the haze meme in 2020s games is so strong her mouth is blue inside
glad people are rejecting marvel movie styled dialogue
this game would've honestly been a good comedy game if it was a black male voiced by Chris Tucker instead
>it's a bracelet
>named cuff
Cuffs are attached to things.
>Cuff : something (such as part of a sleeve or glove) encircling the wrist
its literally defined as anything encircling the wrist you mouth breathing confidently incorrect insufferable fucking retard, Unironically have a nice day brainlet
Sleeve cuffs are attached to sleeves. Hand cuffs are attached to another version of themselves. Cuffs are always attached to something, dipshit, not free floating.
It's actually worse than I expected. No wonder everyone dunked on this game.
What the fuck is this shit tier animation? It's like a PS2 game
as a 2000 zoomer, i know our brains are fried, i know we're terminally online, i know we're degenerates, but thank God at least we'll never be as bad as gay milliennials
>capitalizes God even though he doesn't capitalize I
I KNEEL
you think once zoomers start writing for games its gonna be better?
though at least AI will be in charge by then
>you think once zoomers start writing for games its gonna be better?
I thought they already are though? theres no way a old man wrote the "ugh, Bigot Sandwich" line. and some of the "comedy" in God of War Ragnarok and some of the memes that sneak their way into triple A titles.
wasn't god of war written by Antony Burch?
dude ain't a zoomer, he's in his 40's now
what was the age of the people who wrote Forspoken? honest question.
"people" who live on twitter are zoomers regardless of age
Burch is the biggest gay zoomer of all time, regardless of Xis royal cuckness' true age.
Seriously, fuck that guy. Borderlands is the cringiest shit ever.
>theres no way a old man wrote the "ugh, Bigot Sandwich" line.
That's just an old man's idea of what the kids find funny these days.
That game reeked of "we couldn't get the actors from the film but we really wished we could". The only even half decent character was Gamora.
All those games were written by garden gnomes. Old ones.
But its the kind of media degradation they seek
yes. because zoomers grew up deep into postmodernism and post-irony they will either gravitate towards sincerity or have the sense to not engage in such esoteric clown conversations at all.
frfr nocap
You're right, you aren't as bad as gay millennials, you zoomies are worse.
no millennials are pozzed cringe and old. zoomers are just pozzed and cringe
like millennials are any better lmao. you know boomers and gen x think the same about you right?
Dude I work with you fuckers and you suck at literally everything and are actually brain dead
I don’t even know how you made it to 18 without accidentally dying in some dumbass way
> at least we'll never be as bad as gay milliennials
Never say never.
Your gen still has an entire lifetime ahead of it.
>never be as bad
that's the problem, you have no ambition and you think failing is success. You're worse in every way: that faggy broccoli cut, face tattoos, incomprehensible moron speak that makes hobos seem eloquent, and you think you're hard because of it. It's genuinely sad seeing whites speedrun a generation into being little hoodrats and y'all are wondering why well spoken browns with degrees are preferred hires when the EEO-1 quota's already been met. bros have always been fatherless so we learn how to cope. This is the first white generation raised entirely by women or gays and it's worse than anything we've ever made.
Wiggers have existed for decades you zillennial fucktard.
Wiggers used to be the lowest rungs of society, violent working class idiots, now even the middle class thinks acting black is cool
>Wiggers used to be the lowest rungs of society, violent working class idiots
This was literally never true, wigger rich kids have always existed.
>MUH 8K LA STUDIO APARTMENT RENT
>MUH LIBERAL ARTS DEGREE STUDENT LOANS
Wow that's definitely relatable to someone.
Why are so many writers from California? Why dont games ever hire writers from other states?
Writers from other states are chuds.
Because they aren't from California originally. They move away from their "backwards" homes to move to the "big city". Either that or they're products of spoiled upper class families.
t. born and raised in SoCal just in time to see it become a huge favella
This game is so fucking weird. You're not playing as a gang of criminals, you're playing a bunch of privileged rich kids larping as criminals
That's essentially what antifa is
That one IH video about a bike lock assaulter was like a low level assistant teacher in a uni or something. He had a degree in ethics.
That fits antifa a bit better than someone well off in life. some nonsense degree that cannot be used to do any productive work which leaves them a lot of time fantasizing about hurting others
But I'm not wrong feeling that way, right?
>Make the rent/college debt jokes multiple times
>Everyone is fucking quirky like they're trying to outdo one another to be the funny one of the group

Isn't that the point? Why would anybody become a Marxist "le corporations are exploiting le workers of le world" if they didn't ever work for a company at any point in your life?
>Isn't that the point?
It would be the point if the characters were self-aware
I thought the characters start working for the corp and then through working for the corp come to realize that corp bad, anarchist rebellion good
It's like the same plot as Battleship Potemkin, it's not subtle
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?????
It's like they saw the Battleblock Theater trailer and wanted to do a completely humorless remake.
Funny how critiques of writing on here are never any more thoughtful or go any deeper than "it's so bad guys". One would hope there'd be some evidence of knowing how to write/articulate thoughts given that writing is the thing being complained about. Y'all just wanna skip to the part where you use it as a springboard to air your grievances with the world as you perceive it.
People respond to the marketing material publisher puts out
This game decided theres some market that loves this kinda content. Like they're fans of subreddits talking about marxism, feminism and who will react to whatever post praising elon musk with a downvote.
The writers were told "appeal to that, and dont appeal to anyone else".
Its not a critique of the writing, its a critique of what the devs tried to accomplish and that they weren't trying to make a game that appeals to the person complaining.
speaking of grievances with the world. why is suddenly "yall" so popular? theres no way this many southern people are just now finding their way online and I know cowboys arent making a comeback so what gives?
YALL!
I mean its inconsequintal but it just irks me to see everyone using a shorthand now when just a while back people wouldnt mind typing "You all".
HOWDY YALL!
thats my small " Dan Vs" complaint for the day. that people online are starting to sound like my older family members.
I think their yall comes from them imitating blacks rather than imitating southerners.
yeah I figured that was the case. As a person who doesnt use social media day by day I can feel my "firmware" becoming outdated. Did you also noticed that people stopped using "bro" and started using "bruh"? or "breh".
as a person who grew up saying "dude" all the time it feels like im slowly being replaced...i vocabulary is.....becoming obsolete...
My recent observation is the fall from grace of "retard". Ten years ago literally everyone, even on the political left, used retard, but nowadays it's like thought of as being in the same neighborhood as the N-word. The speed at which language keeps changing is absolutely crazy.
They know being a moron amd a retard is a bad thing which is why they have to say heavily shame those words. Black is a demonic babylonian curse, retards are objective worse than geniuses and midwits.
I still use "retard"
anyone who is upset by it is a retard and not worth your time
it's a great filter
this, i can get why people get bent out of shape when you use the dreaded n word but people who unironically use shit terms like "the R slur" can safely be disregarded entirely. it's such an obvious indicator of disingenuous good person, it reminds me of how patrick bateman acts when he's around his co workers.
>can get why people get bent out of shape when you use the dreaded n word
moron is just a word. Its not a big deal quit pissing your pants shitskin.
>gets canceled for hatespeech
worst I say is "these devs are retarded" usually followed by "they dont know how to balance their own game" or "what were they thinking? how could they possibly think this change was a good idea?"
yo momma
>yo momma
still works
my mother is a saint, you homo
It's a real shame, I miss using the hard R
honestly gay and retard being used as a insult and long past overdue for extinction. Not because of SJW nonsense or anything but because its a low road copout and a majority of the fun that comes from name-calling and ad hominem usage is flexing your imagination to paint a mental image in your opponents head.
getting into a online altercation and calling someone a "stupid retard" or "gay "u suck dick) is shameful dispray and no effort. why even have a brain if you arent gonna use it?
Not to mention just with the direction that western society has moved in now calling someone "gay" really really doesnt have that same "sting" like it used to. people dont care about being gay anymore. some are even proud of it. its not a insult anymore because a measure of people choose to actively make it part of their personality.
we need to find new insults. we need our top minds on it. we can use Call of Duty's proximity chat as the perfect testing grounds.
gay
>people dont care about being gay anymore.
Lol, that's not true at all. Try that on any other site outside of Ganker and people will get angry at you for it.
here's how you fix retard losing its edge: stop casually swearing all the time.
t. gay retard
You type like a gay and your shit is all retarded.
nothing beats calling someone a retarded gay. The wordy insults might sound better in your head but if you call someone some long ass "creative" insult you found on reddit people will just point and laugh. It's very hard to get long insults right, you have to have the charisma to pull it off, which ,let's face it, most people don't. a simple "fucking idiot" will work better than "I don’t have the time or the crayons to explain it to you." or “You lack so much brain matter that you’d float on water.”
The wordy insults also make you sound like a conceited piece of shit. Then again that's what is popular these days so what do I know.
Nah. I believe retard and moron are so used and fought over despite being "bad" is because they are, above all, appropiate.
Sometimes someone does or says something so stupid that these are the proper words most people would find "correct" to use to emphazise just how retarded that thing was. If they werent effective at describing a specific certain type of sentiment then they would die on their own.
The thing is that you need words that are universally understood to mean "I really fucking hate you and you make me furious". It just so happens that every word in the english language that does that is a slur towards some type of group.
I don't think retard is a slur at all. Being retarded, or disabled in any other way, is objectively a bad thing. It's the most natural insult to exist.
Personally I find that "retard" has moved on from mentally handicapped people. My brother has autism and helping him grow to accomodate to society better has made me seen many other autistic or mentally handicapped people and at least for me the word has no connection to them whatsoever.
>Personally I find that "retard" has moved on from mentally handicapped people
Of course. Because they don't use it anymore. Originally the politically correct term for the mentally handicapped was "mongoloid" but that began to be used as a slur so they changed the politically correct term for the mentally handicapped to be "retard", which just means slow, but that began to be used as a slur too so they changed the politically correct term to "mentally disabled" but that also began to be used as a slur so now they've changed to politically correct term to "neurodivergent". That too will be a slur soon enough.
punk ass bitch shut the fuck up
When I call you a retard, I am not insulting you. I actually believe you are retarded.
You'd understand this if you weren't so fucking retarded. Painting a mental picture? Finger painting retard.
Acting like a retard or a gay are still undesirable, anon.
I can tell you're personally-offended by retard and gay, likely from bullies years ago calling you both.
Get over your resentment issues, you imbecilic virgin. Is that better? Probably not since you'll just find new words to get mad at.
moron retard and gay are age old traditional slurs to call subhumans you are disgusted by and I for one will not abandon the ideas and virtues passed down to me by my forebearers you fucking retarded moronfagot
I want to know if the modern youth still use gay to mean lame/shit/boring.
Part of the plan to keep you afraid to have a strong opinion. They shame you for words.
>I hate these retarded gays
>YOU CAN'T SAY THAT SWEETY
I am also not online except for this cursed place, so my vocab is probably becoming something of a culture+time capsule. "slaps" and "banger" are the terms I've noticed popping up in my own real life bubble the most. Figure it's just one of the many amusing things about aging or being around a long time.
>Did you also noticed that people stopped using "bro" and started using "bruh"? or "breh".
bruh has a different use than bro, bruh is used when something silly or unbelievable happens like "bruh this enemy just deleted my entire health bar in one hit"
Surprisingly, “dude” is the only piece of slang that’s stuck with me almos my entire life. I almost have to stop myself from saying it in places where it doesn’t fit.
That's phat.
I spent a significant portion of my life between DFW and north Louisiana. There's a name for the effect where you become more conscious of a word or thing and suddenly notice it everywhere.
Sjw used it because it was vaguely black sounding and gender neutral plural. We started using it because it's southern and there's a large contigent of dixiboos on the site so it rubbed off.
It became a part of ebonics and zoomers adopted it in general through systemic Black propaganda through social and state media along with phrases like fr, yo, ay, no cap, etc.
zoomers are the best thing to happen this country in a long time. I dont remember the last time a generation was this derisive and entertaining. no cap on god bruh fr SixxNine Blicky and Travis Scott we trust.
If only white (and lower to lower-middle class) zoomer women didn't want to look like Black women. That's a fucking cursed trend if I ever saw one.
a walking talking AD, how terrifying. Did heaven ran out of souls?
bruh you lowkey jit trippin. ruin'n the vibes baka.
not gunna lie, kramer looks like a chad
>y'all
>Black propaganda
Never thought I'd see reverse cultural appropriation
Y'all is mine and I will be cold in the ground before I let young people and blacks have it. I didn't care about Southern Heritage at all until they started trying to take it from me.

human language is such a fascinating organism.
>blacks "taking" y'all, as if that's not it's origin in the southern vernacular
saw some lesbian wearing a shirt that said "y'all means all"
so take from that what you will
LGBT push ‘y’all’ because ‘you guys’ is gendered. Its always some lgbt bullshit
my secret guilty pleasure is that I actually like saying " Guys, Gals and Non-Binary pals". theres just something so fun about dipping your toes in the current zietgeist pollock painting of nonsense.
bonus points that it makes some people on here triggered enough to go out of their way to give me a (you). I never would have thought that the key to trolling nowadays is to actually take the correct end of "politically appropriate" spectrum instead of the incorrect end but here we are.
get your life together gay. No one likes you
kino image dogshit post
I use they-dam in lieu of sir or madam, the alphabet soup (gays) that infest my friend-groups think it's just the cutest quirky little thing.
morons also say y'all, speaking of morons why is everyone using so much moron speak the past few years. I know people have for a long time but it's so much worse now fr fr no cap shit be bussin and all that ebonics shit
Because the kwa is real and we failed zoomers so hard they became proof of it.
Why would they? They're even more disconnected from life.
It started as ebonics being used for humor because it sounded silly to non-blacks when used sparingly but became a political shibboleth after the mid-2010s.
>past few years.
You been living under a rock for 30 years bud?
it coincides with the rise of “folx” and other gender-neutral terminology, aka chud-fascist shite
quite ironic that nazis were concerned with the “volk” as well
I think that similar to 'safe horny' there's a 'safe South' aesthetic that these people create, a kind of ultra harmless happy-go-lucky brokeback yeehaw version of the American South absent all the problematic stuff like guns, racism, and of course any kind of actual hardship that comes with rural living. I think it's a growing trend now that Cali refugees are infesting Texas and are trying to assimilate into the culture.
What the fuck does safe horny even mean. Just mildly arousing but not explicit, like, anime fanservice?
>What the fuck does safe horny even mean
ESG-approved sexiness
It's the same shit. You just don't want to be seen as a fratboy cause you're a pussy.
Meant for
it's not the same shit you retard, you use bro to refer to someone and bruh as an expression
Twitter word, been trying to force it for a while.
To do with lust but devoid of natural beauty or eros.
Humiliating yourself with either explicitly being a paypig to an only fans whore or just posting about
>dommy mommy, peg my prostate, I'm so weak and worthless, someone euthanise me by facesitting
>oh yes, I love used and damaged goods past expiration date mmm, give me those sloppy !seconds
I'm reminded of this one post on lit or someplace like that by a guy who lamented what happened to the femdom scene. Like the way it transformed from eating pussy and liking women who initiate sex to whatever the fuck it is nowadays.
Huh. So it wasn't literally safe but rather politically safe.
They tried to do that to architectfags with body positivity, but it largely hasn’t worked because women into being architected almost always have a humiliation fetish to go along with it
People are having a very hard time describing it exactly, but I would define it as sexuality with male passivity.
I don't think it comes down to how explicit it is. You can have a girl show her tits in a game and it still be safe horny as long as she's the most active participant.
Normal horny would be a young guy peering into the girls' shower room to catch a glimpse of sideboob. Safe horny would be the same girl offering to strip for the guy in exchange for money.
When the natural roles of a sexually aggressive male and a chaste female are subverted, that's safe horny. When mystique and romance is removed and sex is made into a commodity, that's safe horny. When attitudes towards sex are reflective of modern promiscuity, with virginity shamed and casual sex the expected norm, that's safe horny.
Basically what journos and twitterfags find acceptable to be horny about. they'd cry about sexualization in gaming in one breath, then go "step on me and choke me mommy" over some hag in the next breath.
its like there's some unspoken rules about what you can find arousing
Twitter chud shitpost word
But I like the US South because it is UNSAFE.
We've been saying "yall" on the east coast for a very long time It's definitely a southern thing but we've been using it for a really long time too for as long as I can remember
"yall" is literal chud talk. If someone says it their opinion is disregarded
y'all and they are used by globohomo to further kill meaning and nuance in language. if you are a content writer for any major corp you will be forced to deploy they. especially if you do technical writing.
Black/latino speak.
Just one more retarded Internet slang word. You don't get why "YALL" is a thing, and I immediately dismiss anyone who unironically says shit like "sexo" as a braindead mongrel. Same thing.
Have sex.
The mass adoption of ya'll comes from Californians practically invading Texas, fleeing from the shit they voted for, and thinking it's quirky.
Saying "you all" sounds mean. It's neutral, but the world "ilk" is neutral too but you never hear it used positively or by anyone who isn't autistic.
"You guys" is also gendered so saying y'all us better and more efficient. Quicker to say that "both of you" when addressing a couple of people.
Dan Vs is really good.
Unironic twitter user here.
People just say "ya'll" when they're in an argumentative mood but have to make themselves look nonchalant. It's sassy and makes it sound like you "don't give a fuck".
Search "ya'll" on twitter and all you get is people doing "epic dunks" and "mic drops".
I muted the word.
>autistic armchair psychologist has logged on
I'm just pointing out patterns I see.
You can run the test for yourself by typing "ya'll" in twitter and come to your own conclusions.
Most of these results are kpop stans. These are the first. Your armchair psychology has failed you.
Oh no I'm no longer "it" and they changed what "it" was. I have no fucking idea what the bottom person is fucking saying.
>kpop stans.
The most argumentative, mentally ill people in the world.
Funny that.
>you listen to kpop, bro, your vibes are argumentative
What the fuck is happening
>it's getting defensive
Haven't spent much time around the creatures I see.
I'm genuinely happy for you.
moron, Gankerirgins have been the most argumentative, this thread included. In the search results I'm just seeing people enjoying media with the occasional snark.
>with the occasional snark
>People just say "ya'll" when they're in an argumentative mood but have to make themselves look nonchalant
Nah that's wrong
You're just one of those insane 4channigs who use twitter as a political shitflinging board so your only exposure to people saying "yall" is when they're flinging political shit
Actual chud speak with a tinge of liberal approved ebonics for seasoning.
My guess is it has to do with twitter’s character restriction. Aside from “you all” being an inclusive term which promotes interaction and replies, “yall” is just shorter to type. Therefore it is the preferred wording.
HR moron runoff. I see "y'all" in text the same way I imagine a Hispanic reads "latinx".
you did not read this thread, see
>Y'all
stopped reading right there, kys millenioid
Those are all the airing grievances about "kids today" as I described in my post, the Why without the What
>end sentence in preposition
>uses ya'll
Your writing is shit. There's your critique.
I unironically miss the dumb edgy era in western gaming. The Gears of Wars, the God of Wars, the Devil May Cry reboots. They at least had no pretenses to being anything more than they were, and even if they did, like the DMC reboot, it was cringy in a funny way. Millennials can't even into so bad it's good cringekino.
>people in youtube video says it was millenials
>i will now repeat what youtube man said for (you)s on Ganker
Why are zoomers so brainwashable and stupid? do they realize they are not wanted?
>regularly commits crime
>his main motivation is to pay rent
why is it ok for Thief to do this but not saints row
garrett doesn't pretend as if his crimes are fixing some societal wrongs, he just wants to pay the fucking rent goddammit
The implication of Soints Row is "boo hoo ebil landlords forced us to do crime" while Garrett legitimately does not care.
Tone. The Saints Row cast act very holier than thou and vindicated by their acts of criminality and straight up murder as well as never taking a second to stop making jokes.
Garret knows he's a jerk and only makes a snide remark once every 30 minutes or even hour and mostly just focuses on doing his job and being bitter about his job.
Garret is also just plainly written more human: Not making jokes when shit get's real, has some feelings of remorse or fear depending on what occurs in the narrative and so on.
>Get to The Sword
>suddenly Garrett isn't so snarky anymore
neat detail
Taff. I've played the game for 25 years and never noticed this.
Honestly, I get that to a degree characters are just tools to convey a message or point. But it's like a lot of current writers take that to the extreme and think so little about the characters themselves outside of what kind of quota they need to fill.
Is Life is Strange young enough still count.
those are french subhumans who wrote that out of touch cringe. all that humor in that game was dated af for 2015
the game is set in a college during 2013 so this kind of fits
gen xers wrote about rent way more because their parents were literal boomers who kicked them out the second they turned 18 because they thought that was tradition even though their parents didn't do it to them and having non-multi generational homes has never been normal anytime in history. If you watch or read much gen x media it's largely glorifying destitute living or complaining about rent. The more lighthearted media (sitcoms, etc) just write an excuse about them having a rent controlled apartment or just having most of the main cast be wealthy.
Black people are cringe.
like, ugh.

Do zoomers really?
I'm pretty sure Anthony Burch is a millennial.
Dude, what the fuck?
pls post some cringe stuff
>mutt doesn't understand something
>still assured his version is superior
Every fucking time, probably you consider your morons are better than african
Writer and directors are all Gen X, retard.
BUT YOUTUBE MAN SAID MILLENIAL BAD
YouTubers are lazy retards
Youtube man was correct.
Gen X writing is different. It at least pretended to be genuinely edgy. While one of the key characteristics of millennial writing is that it is extremely safe all things considered.
Why are you making shit up? This is still Gen X writing and most of the writing for games in the 90s were actual boomers.
Gen X writing is shit like American Psycho and Fight Club. Whatever we have has moved past that era completely.
Fight Club was written by a boomer.
You have no idea which generations wrote what.
Watch Dogs 2 was written and directed by gen X
Forspoken was written by a boomer (almost X)
Saints Row Reboot writers are gen X
The only bad millennials I can think of are Anthony Burch and his group.
you do realize a huge chunk of millennials are pushing 40 or older
Do you realize counting exists and numbers aren't impressionistic
Aren’t most games nowadays zoomer written games?
Zoomers are like 27 now
25 actually.
t.Zoomer
zoomers will soon birth a new generation of even more disfuntional children
No, but maybe. It really depends on if Zoomer parents realize and acknowledge the mistakes of their parents, and go in the radically opposite direction. We saw this with Gen-X raising Millennials. Boomers were kind of absent and Gen-X went in the complete opposite direction and became obsessed with "safety" and constantly coddling their children. Who do you think invented the "participation trophy"?
The older Zoomers will probably be shit parents but the ones who are 10/11 right now will probably be pretty decent.
you kidding? have you seen these little shits in public lately? either glued to some dogshit ipad app or running wild with autism.
the earth is doomed.
Yeah it doesn't matter how they are when they're kids. It matters how they are when they're 35 and having kids of their own. You could see a radical hatred for technology & media. I know if I ever have kids they're not getting a phone or an ipad or any of that shit and they're going to a montessori school/homeschool. And im only 23. I'm sure a lot of people my age feel the same way.
>Yeah it doesn't matter how they are when they're kids
Retard
t. degree in human development
he's only socially retarded anon, he's smart to have this kind of foresight
let me warn you tho anon as a 35 year old the only women to have kids with at 35 are total whores with 3 previous abortions or fatties, all the other women already have kids at this point. dont wait this long.
im trying to get a wife before 25
not him but I have to do billions of paperwork to move to another country and find a wife. It will take me years. I don't think I can find one by 35
The girls your age 10-15 years ago were dating guys your age now, pressure to stay only at your age is exclusively a trap for dumber dudes.
you do realize you can marry a woman younger than you correct?
you arent forced into relationships strictly in your age bracket dumbass.
go steal a zoomer chick from these broccoli haired gays and make them seethe knowing youre impregnating their oneitis.
Watching my Gen X parents force themselves into a loveless and miserable mairrage that they then used me to vent over has made me put off with the idea of having kids and/or marriage.
Millennials shouldn't be allowed to have children anyways. You're a genetic failure and the world will be a better place without your dysgenic spawn.
Millenials=Boomers parents. Gen X parents=Zoomer you dumbo.
I think older zoomer kids are fucked, since those zoomers are basically mini millenials. But really young zoomer kids may come out completely different than you imagine. Sooner or later there’s gonna be a rebellion culture on narcisstic social media culture, it’s just how things go.
What is zoomer writing like? Are alphoids old enough to write yet?
ZAMN BUSSIN DRIP ON GOD FRFR NO CAP BBC MUHFUGGIN BIX NOOD
Look up the genre called litrpg. They're episodic fantasy stories set in fantasy worlds inspired by video games. The main problem with this is they have no fabula, the plot goes on forever. It's a step back to the pulp fiction of early 20th century America.
A lot of kids shows (especially remakes) have gen z references. The New Looney Tunes cartoon was basically what if Bugs got iPad the show and it went on for years before the new HBO show even infecting the new Space Jam
I don't know if you ever watched the Proud Family back in the day but the new one, Louder and Prouder, unironically uses the phrase "Zamn" like it means something. Loud House makes having a VR headset in every house seem normal. A staggering 80% of newer cartoons use the flossing fortnite dance for no fucking reason other than you can't copyright a dance and it's "hip". Wait a minute. "hip" isn't a thing. the new word is "bussin". Things are so much worse than you think outside of vidya
>Every discussion ever about generational gaps is about how Boomers/Millenials/Zoomers ruined society
>Gen X is never brought up and always ignored as if they don't exist
Why is that?
It's kind of like how Brazilians are brought up in a discussion about South America
GenX wrote that.
Millennials are too low on the rungs to write.
Lead writer was Gen X but the entire team was millennial.

Xinnelias wrote it. now shut the fuck up.
i'm a content writer (out of most gigs due to big tech deploying algos).
1. video game writing jobs pay like complete shit unless
2. nepotism hires for certain demographic (i don't mean garden gnomes, they dominate screenwriting which pays better)
3. no one normal wants to touch video games, just like no one competent wants to program them
these are bottom of the barrel writing gigs, this AAA stuff.
Then why is the writing for everything else nearly as bad these days?
Where did this cringe come from... I've lived in texas my whole life, and everyone here says y'all.
The reason why so many games (and media) sucks is because of the writer's hubris and disdain for the audience. They think they're better than you and are mad that they can only get paid making media for people they think are sub-human. The new Saints Row reboot hates the Saints Row audience. It's actively meant to piss you off. The gays at Volition got mad that their Agents of Mayhem game flopped hard and their company went bankrupt so now they're trying to get payback on the consumer.
I don't know if this is true but I was watching some review of the latest update for the game and they've apparently patched a bunch of "Saints Row" memorabilia into the game for display in the crib. I put Saints Row in quotes because there is absolutely nothing from SR1&2. All the trophies and references and shit are to SR3&4. If that's not fucking contempt I don't know what is. It's well known the key people behind SR1&2 are long gone from Volition but we're starting to get a good idea of just how much the current crew of Volition dislike that old crew. Millennials really aren't big fan of the "standing on the shoulders of giants" idea. They hate the people that came before them.
And one of the pieces of memorabilia was facing the wrong way towards a wall. the perfect metaphor for them turning their back on you. this game was made purely out of spite.
>imagine this bitch ass bro bowtie and nerd glasses coming to the hood
>mfw
I hate how younger Zoomers play video games in general. It's like I'm watching an extension of a YouTuber and their video in real time. They even spout lines like it's an advertisement.
Written by two Gen Xirs
Saints Row (2022):
>Director
Brian Traficante - Age: 50s (Gen X)
>Writers
Jacques Hennequet - Age: 50s (Gen X)
Jason Scott - Age: 50s (Gen X)
Forespoken:
>Writers
Allison Rymer - Age 40s (Millennial/Gen X)
Todd Stashwick - Age 54 (Gen X)
Amy Hennig - Age 58 (Gen X/Boomer)
Gary Whitta - Age 50 (Gen X)
You can tell Saints Row was written by gen xers because they sing fucking rock lobster at the end of the game
The chick from forspoken saying "jacked up monsters," dates the writers as Xers too.
Nobody knows who made it, volition was just a front for money laundering
no one who "writes well" will find making games worth it in current year. anything with good writing will get passed over by consumers and investors alike, unless they're japanese of course
because good writing in japanese is impossible?
Why are all of you pretending you aren't millenials? Majority of you are in your 30s. Stop pretending you aren't.
Millenials aren't one person, fucking mongoloid , it's a therm that summarize certain features of the generation. Johnny Rebel and John Lennon were both boomers
Go look up any recent statistics asking thread on the archive. Ganker is like 90% zoomers now that really hate being called zoomers so they keep desperately lying about the starting year.
I guarantee you that games like Saints Row reboot and Redfall have Gen X writers who are trying to appeal to millenials who let their student debt and lack of housing become a personality.
this is the case but zoomers and gen alpha will blame millennials because they hate their parents
>millenials who let their student debt and lack of housing become a personality.
Is this even a thing? I'm 31 and haven't heard anyone my age bracket complain about student debt irl for years now.
That’s because student debt has been frozen since covid and now it’s a political weapon used by the politicians so it’ll likely be kicked down the road for a long time.
I was more of the opinion that most people get a somewhat useful degree that lands them a proper job that pays like $60-70k a year. Since they don't live in HUSTLE AND BUSTLE of NYC, LA or Bay area, that $60-70k allows most people to pay for their non-prestige college costs. I went to B tier in-state college + law school and paid only $49k in total which came out to about $65k worth of debt + costs and interest.
I have 24k in debt and a good career path that does more than that, and im still not paying lol.
I don’t think that most writers or creative people have much control over these IP’s, anyway. They are more of less given a target demographic and a basic blueprint to
aim that is decided upon by the big wigs corporation CEO’s and chairmen, I thought it was basic and obvious that many of these people are not in full control? They generally write and make things according to what caters the most most to basic mainstream appeal, you don’t hardly even see anything that is very novel and unique anymore, it’s mostly just the same big franchises and already established brands, really.
I don’t know how much these people know about marketing but it obviously factors pretty big into the equation, I imagine that it’s not very fulfilling writing or coming up with creative or artistic ideas that are based solely on how well something will sell, that kind of takes the love right out of it.
Games don't need to sell well anymore. Nowadays the name of the game is optimizing your ESG score.
Fun fact, the esg bullshit is a boomer invention (of the gnomish variety).
BUT OH MAN THOSE FUCKIN MILLENIALS BRUH NO CAP FR FR
Millennials are less the problem. It's just that only woke-ass scripts being the ones that get picked up by corps. Blame the political groundwork that laid the way for this garbage.
>expensive suit in a bad taste
>wonders if he can make a rent
This picture nails it.
Many of my millenial friend are like this. They complain about not having money but at the same time they eat out more often than not and buy a lot of overpriced clothes.
On Friday I've been at bar with several friends. I've met a girl there who had admitted she's got $2 left in her account. It didn't stop her to spend most of her wallet on the beers. All I know is - she plans to postpone* her rent and visit parents** this week.
*t/l note - "postpone rent" means "be late with rate"
**"visit parents" means "leech off parents"
a combination of executive not giving a damn about quality, over focusing on marketing nepotism, treating writers like they are disposable and producing way more media now then in the past so people are picking up scripts that we would skip over in the past for not being good enough.
what were they thinking
Most new hires in the game industry are zoomers, most senior devs are millienials, most owners are gen X
Most game writers would probably be millenials
They should just not use American writers anymore. That would solve it.
american culture is the global culture
when i was a uni in the uk people would watch the superbowl and celebrate thanksgiving
american football was a popular sport played and there were even cheer leaders
many worshiped california as the promised land
in the uk american words, terms and expressions have taken over, there was even a famous video of someone demanding a police officers badge number
people also try to call 911 in emergencies
the same for continental europe all the young people speak english in american accents and use american words
if you use non american writers now you would just use americanised writers
At least they'd be "americanized" with ideals of machine guns sold in Walmart and 60 cent hamburgers. Better than a cynical mutt.
the complete opposite, they hated guns, thought trump was the devil and laugh and american late night political comedy shows
That's not how the Japanese are.
why on earth are you talking about the japanese
>they should just not use American writers anymore
my posts were talking about americanised euros
the japanese are too busy protesting about having a military
The original post didn't mention euros specifically.
>this gay is pushing his "millennial writing" meme when all that shit is actually written by baby boomers and gen xers
No one does anything 'till the turd starts to smell, fuckers don't let up 'till everyone's had a taste, and instead of removing it they argue over who laid it.
Uhh millennialsisters? Our response? We tried to pin it on zoomers but it backfired... we need an emergency meeting, STAT!
Millenials are the last people who lived and experienced the times when things were still good. Why would they be the ones who ended up ruining things? Millenials are the ones lamenting the downfall of entertainment media.
Are you familiar with the term "troll's remorse"?
While some are mad at gentrification, others gave up and joined it.
I don't think troll's remorse applies because normal things simply are okay. People didn't do normal things out of malice, and there's no reason to feel guilty after normal things have been redefined as evil. Anyone who does something like that is dangerous because apparently their brains can be rewired into supporting or opposing anything.
Who's the bald guy?
apologize to tacticalfiend
I'd argue the Communist Manifesto was pretty influential considering the impact it's teachings have had on the last century of human history
yeah "influential"
just not in a good way
Good thing influential doesn't imply good.
what does communism and judaism have in common? the answer may shock you!
Yep, Marx is unironically the most important figure of modern history.
He literally defined pretty much ALL politics, economics, sociology, philosophy, histiography that came after him.
Modern politics is still like 40% seething over "Marxists". Marx BTFO'ed Econfags so hard that the entire field remains a joke to this day because they have to rely on cope axioms to not accept Marx was like 90% right.
"Why The Fuck Everything Cost Money"
-Karl Marx
Adam Smith still going strong with "tariff bad". Well, at least until the next global war completely sunders the global economic structure. Keynes to this day looks more and more like the underpants gnomes wherein the ???? step is "Don't worry people who are making money will -definitely- be happy to give their fair share back in investment and tax"
I still don't get why inflation is good and deflation is bad.
inflation going up is useful if you want to pay off big debts you've accrued (and are still getting paid in line WITH said inflation of course) If that $5000 debt you took two years ago can now be paid in a single paycheck: That's pretty great, for you.
It tends to make people spend more (because things cost more)
That's kind of it. Inflation is terrible. Deflation can also be terrible because people historically get REALLY upset when you pay them "less" but the current way most economies work mean deflation is a fucking myth.
>and are still getting paid in line WITH said inflation of course
Not gonna happen. People foolish enough to willingly get in debt because it's "normal" reap what they sow.
I mean petty observation aside the economy doesn't want you to get paid in line with inflation because that's a really great way to cause inflation. Unfortunately, since people need to live and like being paid in line with inflation, they tend to (at least initially) ask for pay rises, at least in competitive markets you're fucked as a labour drone but hey you're used to that.
>at least in competitive markets you're fucked as a labour drone but hey you're used to that
You know you're on Ganker, right?
Yes yes its very funny everyone is an unemployed neet in a basement. Except lots of them aren't.
Even then, inflation is bad for you smash players. Those amibos will cost even more good boy points!
Your wagie rage is showing.
Nah I've been unemployed longer than some of you have probably been alive. It's more that you have spoken in nothing but catchphrases in a thread complaining about them.
Brainless.
>I've been unemployed longer than some of you have probably been alive
That makes your information extra worthless since you're not "in with it" and prone to misunderstanding the youth much like the writers of the Saint's Row remake did.
See your own post.
To phrase it in a way you'd understand: "Uhuhuhuhuh. You're old."
It does help that nobody has actually read Das Kapital and lived so if you want to be or comprehend Marxist communism you kind of have to read the pampthlet. At least you're better off than reading the little red book. I've read that and either the translation is fucking dogshit and/or Mao wrote like a fucking child.
Don't pretend millennials aren't writing for zoomers, moron.
>they charged money for 3 levels at most that takes 20 minutes to finish and can’t be replayed
>common bug is that using above 60 FOV causes a soft lock in a mission
>adds a trophy room with Saints Row 3-4 assets that are clearly just ripped from those games because their details makes them stand out to the games base graphics (this probably explains why it’s only 3-4, they couldn’t rip the assets from 2–1, and they’d be much lower poly just plopped down)
That didn’t even give a shit
Holy soul!
what a shit fucking thread.
>millennial-made
moron, are you serious? Did you see the Volition crew?
They're all a bunch of dudes pushing 50 and they still wear shit like Buddy Holly glasses and gauge earrings. Those are GenXers my guy.
If you participated in this debate you are a fag
People aren’t even talking about how bad this DLC is, they charged money for this shit
If I were a gentleman of colour I imagine I'd be rather peeved about all the white pussy gays trying to gentrify my street vernacular.
annoying guy is 100% of writers today
Basically a bunch of gnomish relatives and quirky girls they're trying to sleep with by getting them in the room with the job regardless of how bad everyone is.

What's wrong with this one? Especially in a thread about the problems with generational writing quirks.
cringe, teeth arent bones, fingers arent tenticles
if you can compile a list this long of s*y phrases I think you should probably get off twitter
Mine were from Ganker.
Says someone who uses Ganker and thus has a 50% chance of getting upset he can't say moron at least six hundred times a day.
That doesn’t make sense Anon
Seems pretty simple to me anon. Would you like someone to explain it to you?
>scapegoated by literally every generation that came before and after, the alleged cause of everything that has ever been wrong with society and the economy, hated for merely existing
why do so-called "millennials" cause so much seethe, even here now apparently (probably due to Ganker being incredibly easy to manipulate into using buzzwords and other retarded shit)
millennials are probably the number one users of Ganker, so whats the deal?
And here's Ganker's overly-coddled Devil May Cry series doing the same shit but Ganker will say it's fine
>shitlib immediately recognizes how cringe his vocabulary is
