This is a community of people who slay dragons for fun and oftentimes together. Our hobby teaches us to fight and keep fighting, no matter how many blows we take. If you fail, you press "continue" and try again until you win.
As such GamerGate became one of the biggest black eyes the radical left ever received and they've never forgiven or forgotten how bad gamers made them look...nor how much gamers cost them and continues to cost them. //
I said gamers are costing woke sites like these but it'd probably be more accurate to say that these social justice-obsessed games journos are costing themselves. They told us they hated us so we stopped clicking on their articles and listening to their game reviews. They told us we were sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, and more, so we stopped taking them seriously. They're now suffocating under their hubris. Gamers picked up the toys they said we should be embarrassed by and went elsewhere.
These activists posing as journalists thought their audience was much bigger than it actually was. The "modern audience" they surrounded themselves by is very loud but incredibly minuscule. As I've noted in the past, if a modern audience did truly exist in any substantial way then everything from Kotaku to Star Wars would be thriving. //
Sure, they may see a temporary surge of success but sooner or later their radicalism costs them because there is no "modern audience," and the number of people who will bend the knee to prove themselves innocent of accusations of social sins is diminishing by the day. //

Any space that is predominantly male will be deemed evil, infiltrated and destroyed. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated is the message.
It follows and is the same pattern from the same human nature sinful drives as this. Leftism is toxic femininity, girls gone wild.
- Identify a respected institution (or a man)
- kill it (him)
- gut it (him)
- wear its carcass as a skin suit, while demanding respect (his carcass)
- iowahawk
No wonder they are after pronouns and man/woman. It covers their actual motive: resentment and revenge. //

Who could have predicted that a group of people who usually can't see each other (and therefore are unable to discriminate based on physical appearance), who often straddle vast distances, timezones, languages and nationalities, who team up to attack borg like hive mind enemies for entertainment, who could have foreseen that these people would resist wokeness?
There's not a single animal in the local zoo that is less self aware than these highly educated morons in game "journalism".
My advice is to ignore the advice of people who scaremonger about the gaming community and the industry. Many haven't been in the gaming space long and don't fully understand the people or the games in it. In truth, the gaming space and conservatives could truly be allies in a mutual fight against the influence of radical leftism. //

Long term gamer, and just as long term Conservative. Games, like any medium, has it's good and bad messages, it also is a very young medium and that means it also has its edgy and experimental side still in tact.
...
Further, because of the mature of the medium it lends itself strongly to games that celebrate more masculine virtues. They have yet to make a compelling and fun video game that pushes Woke morality, because Woke morality does not lend itself to a strong gameplay loop. Foremost is this: Within the Woke worldview oppression innately disadvantages people and the only way to overcome it is by outside forces from the individual fixing. Meanwhile no video games are all about player agency, and the impact the player, as an individual, can have on the world. Games where the player has no agency and can do nothing to effect their own outcome are not enjoyable. Thus, games are inherently, structurally conservative, which is why the Woke progressives have spent so much time and effort to try and force propaganda into them, because they cannot overcome that base, innate factor. //

Very well stated.

Just like life. Woke makes you depressed. //

Reading well written history is great. Watching well done media on the subject might be okay. But playing a proper historical computer game is another level of learning.
Heck, XKCD #1356 says it all:

Published in 1985 by Brøderbund Software, Inc., Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? is still a popular detective / mystery title amongst retrogamers, with a whopping 4.4/5 rating.
f there were an award for "most enduring gameplay per KB of data," Alley Cat would have won my vote. In what seems like an incredible feat of programming, Bill Williams was able to pack hours of fun and diverse gameplay into only 38KB of space. As an alley cat, evade dogs, humans, and other obstacles to rescue your sweetheart.
New to abandonware? Start with this guide to play DOS games on Windows 7, 8 or 10, or on your Mac. Most games work fine without any tinkering, but some are hard to run properly.
At present, DOSBox running on a high-end machine will roughly be the equivalent of a Pentium I PC. DOSBox can be configured to run a wide range of DOS games, from CGA/Tandy/PCjr classics up to games from the Quake era.
For decades after its 1989 release, each of the hundreds of millions of standard NES Tetris games ended the same way: A block reaches the top of the screen and triggers a "game over" message. That 34-year streak was finally broken on December 21, 2023, when 13-year-old phenom BlueScuti became the first human to reach the game's "kill screen" after a 40-minute, 1,511-line performance, crashing the game by reaching its functional limits. //
The first known way past the brick wall of Level 29 was a technique that became known as hypertapping. By using a special grip that lets you vibrate a finger over the D-pad directions at least 10 times a second, you can effectively skip the "delayed autoshift" (DAS) that limits how fast pieces can move laterally when the D-pad is held down. //
In fact, a very careful player (or AI) might technically be able to avoid every possible crash opportunity and play all the way past level 255, where the game mercifully resets to Level 0. At that point, as YouTuber aGameScout recently noted, "both the player and the game emerge triumphant together" through a rebirth that will be "the ultimate final achievement of the original game."
