Comment on It looks like someone at Activision is leaking Slack screenshots to right-wing X users
_sideffect@lemmy.world 1 week agoUm… Yes? You’re proving my own point based on what you just wrote.
The people that made Dustborn, Concord, etc, all wanted to push a narrative instead of making a good fun game.
Activists, woke people, etc, are more than welcome in the game industry… As long as they keep that shit to themselves. Leave that idiotic nonsense at home.
You get to work, you work to make a good product, and that’s it.

You’re missing the point of what I said. Concord and Dustborn did not try to send a message, they tried to get the profits they thought would come from associating with the message, and implemented it horribly. This is not activism. That would be like saying Instagram changing their logo to rainbow for a month is activism.
As for true activism, video games are both entertainment and an art form. Saying to “leave that shit at home” is missing the point of artistic mediums in their entirety.

That’s not true at all.
Dustborn didn’t try to send a message? Did you even play it or watch videos on it? Go do that then come back.
