This is the current state of this E3 I don't condone it however if you don't show games and shove constant politics and diversity down people's throats when all they want to do is relax and check out the latest games then tbh your just stupid as fuck.

 

[Punished Miku]

I'm not sure what the screenshot is supposed to be showing me.

But yeah, things be crazy these days.

 

[Skelterz]

And just a head up to the mods that image is only there to prove my point, I don't condone or wish to incite. Gaming should be free of all this rubbish nobody wants to have these discussions we just want to enjoy games.

 

[elliot5]

taking youtube comments as some sort of evidence is lol

also... diversity being "shoved down your throat" sounds real sus bud

 

[Faithless83]

You meant it has become political now!?

 

[Skelterz]

Well the screenshot is essentially the purest form of my point it's E3 and that's the chat..
And the reason that's the chat is because there not showing games there talking politics more or less.

 

[Wandering Leopard]

Are you seriously using this as some type of 'evidence' for an opinion?

Just seems like another day on the internet.

 

[IDKFA]

No political discussions are allowed OP. Read the header.

Not really anybody with any sense of real decency knows all this stuff already almost people are decent people we just want to enjoy E3 but it's been crazy political this year.

Oh really?

Really. There is a message at the top of every page reminding people.

Well this is the sort of chat you'd see on social media not a gaming expo that's my point.

They'll probably take it down then I didn't realise.

 

[Bonfires Down]

No, I'd like to see more games tackle real and serious subjects.

I don't care what people at E3 talk about.

 

[rob305]

Oh really?

 

[Corgi1985]

Ubisoft said games aren't political

 

[Skelterz]

Really. There is a message at the top of every page reminding people.

And to be fair it's not a political discussion per say it's just a poll with a yes or no I'm just interested in peoples opinions on the current state of gaming I'm not looking to start talking about actual politics here.

 

[zeorhymer]

You need to charge your phone.

 

[Ultra Donny]

Isn't the medium broad enough to harbour political and non political games at the same time?

 

[FrozenFlame]

Honestly, I think there's bigger issues to be discussed here, like...

 

[Spukc]

WTF is up with your battery OP?
Are you crazy?

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

The problem is the social pressure put into making games political.

Journos wanted to force diversity into Kingdom Come Deliverance, even though it was a historical game.
That crosses a line that it shouldn't.

What is this nuance?

Are you a communist?

I like to live dangerously.

You're asking if gaming is becoming too political. Therefore, It is a political based discussion. People are not going to answer just 'yes' or 'no'.

Edit. Not trying to be a mod or police it, but don't want anybody to get banned for this thread.

Thanks I appreciate what your saying if the mods take it down I don't mind I literally didn't realise you couldent ask questions like that here thanks for your concern if they take it down I don't mind.

 

[funkygunther]

I am playing 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim and Doom 2016 right now

So er...no, its not too political. If I was playing some 2D indie game it'd probably be a different story.

 

[CherryFalls]

I don't mind games having politics injected into them, I just wish some games would have my politic themes, instead they are boring liberal/progressive trash.

 

[LordBlodgett]

Ehhhh, you can vote with your wallet and time. Don't like a game's politics then don't buy it or play it. I'm really not sure what is supposed to be political about the screenshot though, is it because there is a black women and they are playing Lil Nas X?

 

[Yoboman]

All I knows is that Abraham LinkedIn was killed by a commie while signing the declaration of independence to protect my free speech on the internet and I'll be damned if some CULTURAL MARXISTS will take that away

I thought this was America?!

No problem. The rules were brought in after the political forum got nuked.

Getting rid of political conversations was for the best. It attracted the wrong sort of people and started some really extreme conversations and views.

i can agree with this. well, some of it. well, maybe not much of it at all. but what's important is that it's full of GUSTO!

FairPlay I mean I'm not trying to rile up a posse or anything I'm just interested in what people think about the state of gaming specifically. Like I said if the mods get rid that's cool.
