Sweet Baby Inc took down Square Enix from its list of affiliates

Ironic. Most of SE's casts in games look like femboy/mascgirls (ok women look feminine at least) non-binary folks anyways 😂 this is a win.

A bit too late for DQ III's remake, but still a step in the right direction (hopefully).

That's an important distinction that can't be downplayed. The men that wish they were women don't want that.

What you think it means: OMG, companies are pulling out from working with Sweet Baby!

What it really means: Either SB never worked with S-E, or they used dubious logic to feature their logo e.g. they worked with ex-SE employee in another company and put S-E by association OR they never had a right to feature S-E as their client (which is always a contentious issue and subject to extra negotiation when doing business)

Square might be putting consultants aside (or not, removing it from the website doesnt tell much)

But it's clear that having a consultant company attached to your studio will hurt sales. Ubisoft is learning the hard way. The 'CHUD' crowd is much bigger than the 'woke' crowd

Being 'woke' is uncool in the online meta
 
Just because SBI name doesn't appear anymore in their partners lists, it doesn't mean gamers can't smell forced DEI/woke crap at distance.

You can coat shit with other colors but the smell will always give away its true nature.

Meh, who really gives a fuck now? Jill & Clive were clearly "woke" driven characters created & directed by Sweet Baby....


Just make great games and nobody will continue to give a fuck....
 
It still kills me that they decided to name themselves "Sweet Baby", despite not producing anything related to baby food and stuff.
There was a time, even here, where people would outrage about some 'offensive' thing in a game and the response would be a "sweet baby jesus" gif. The name is a play on that and not about actual baby sweets.
 
SQEX has been my favorite developers since the days of Squaresoft (I know they are *not* the same, but that's how it his. The heart is really stupid --sometimes-- when it comes to these things), so I hope they can rectify the ship. I love the FF franchise with a passion, but the decisions they've been making in the last decade have been far from optimal. I hope that, if real, this is the first step towards recovery.
 
I'll believe it when I see square show it. SBI can just remove a name and keep their partnership secret. Call me paranoid but I want to see receipts first.

That has very little or nothing to do with the subject of this thread, and more with S-E wanting to sell DQ games in Japan at lower CERO ratings. It's been happening for a while.

Conversely, they still continue to make and release other games with higher CERO ratings that include no such modifications.

That wouldn't surprise me. A rebrand or some sneaky shenanigans are likely to happen.

But like Reaseru Reaseru said, we can smell that shit a mile away.

It's a start, I think more companies are waking up to the fact how real gamers absolutely hate this toxic woke/DEI bullshit
 
These companies are slowly learning that they win nothing with those consultants. In fact its just a waste of money paying them.
 
Wait, I'm confused. I was told that companies like Sweet Baby and the DEI initiatives were the right side of history and everything other than that was clearly, unequivocally, pure nazism.

Wha... what's happening? Are Square Enix far-right now? I don't want to support racism and bigotry, guys :messenger_fearful:

This. Absolutely this. DEI (whatever that even means in the context of video game development) will be the first thing to go as companies close ranks and look to trim costs due to poor economic outlook.
 
They were involved with the DQ3 remake

Edit: why they would be for that game is anyone's guess lol

They waited for Toriyama to die and started altering his designs to appeal to individuals that don't even buy the fucking games. Those ESG handouts must be massive.
