To understand the impact of modern woke culture, it’s crucial to explore its roots. I’ve created a quick break down exploring the origins and the rise of modern woke culture.

The events of the first gears is 14 years after emergence day. So there is plenty of story to tell...they need to do is get rid of Mags.

Everyone uses AI at work. Its a must now for faster productivity. The argument here is muddled with Ai art, videos and writing. An argument can be made there but when it come to programming and paperwork you need it so that you can ease the workload and find solutions through a workflow.

The Lost Era of Rocksteady: Gaming’s Greatest Modern Mystery The complete mismanagement of Rocksteady Studios and the Batman: Arkham IP stands as one of the biggest tragedies in modern gaming. Despite pioneering the modern comic book adaptation, Rocksteady and WB Games completely vanished during the absolute peak of superhero cinema and pop-culture fandom. Within a single six-year window, Rocksteady delivered one of the greatest trilogies in video game history: Batman: Arkham Asylum (2009) Batman: Arkham City (2011) Batman: Arkham Origin(2013)- Not by Rocksteady Batman: Arkham Knight (2015) Immediately following Arkham Knight, the superhero craze driven by the MCU and DCU reached its cultural and financial peak between 2016 and 2019. Yet, between 2015 and 2023, Rocksteady released absolutely nothing. The studio bypassed an entire console generation in total silence. To have an eight-year void during the golden age of comic book media, only to emerge with a live-service disappointment like Suicide Squad, represents an astonishing level of studio and publisher incompetence. Why abandon a Winning Formula? Rocksteady could have easily developed a second trilogy in the time it took to deliver a single failed project. Instead, a phenomenally successful IP was entirely abandoned. Why didn't WB Games establish a dedicated team exclusively focused on producing single-player Batman titles? Fans wanted nothing more than a return to Gotham, yet they have been left waiting for over a decade. The gaming community may never fully uncover the internal turmoil, pivot failures, or corporate mandates that derailed Rocksteady. Modern games journalism has largely failed to dig up the real truth or hold the right decision-makers accountable. Ultimately, this will go down as an unmatched historical puzzle: How did a premier developer fail to capitalise on a multi-billion-dollar IP and completely alienate its core fanbase?

Once again gamers are put supporting games that require our attention.

Its would be a gingantic mistake for Xbox to get rid of Arkane. The Arkane's design of games can work with so many games out there...they just need proper marketing. Imagine if Xbox gets rid of this developer and Blade turns out to be a GOTY contender.

Maybe if you called out the woke slop they had they could have been avoided but you Mfers cheered for it. This is the end result...Bioware closure was thanks to you lot for plaforming the likes of grifters like Anita scarkeesian and Zoe Quinn.

Bioware shutting down is a concequence of modern day game development and the DEI first approach to gaming. What makes a bioware world appealing is it immersion of the world created but if said world is filled with modern day political messages then skepticism is ingrained in gamers as it show a compromised vision. This lead to a lost sale and if you cant sell it to fans then you cant sell it to anyone. Secondly character, with Mass effect creating some of the best design I have seen in a alien world, the standard was set. But for this to be abandoned for the sake of appealing to consultant and their mandate design. The vision and artists that Bioware upheld for years was gone. Its not a surprise that Bioware is dead, they had the resources but activism too precedent. The journalist and activist should start maturing up admit that their refusal to call out wokeness in gaming is the very reason why games are ugly and bloated.

Apart from Astro bot you are dead wrong. Finland fantasy rebirth should have won.

If you dont have Control Resonant on your GOTY list then you have no buisness talking about video game, let alone ranking which ones are the best. This list is pathetic.

Thats the problem with Halo at the moment. Everything seems to be a nostalgia bait with remakes and with the recent one it had the opposite effect. Halo fans want to see where the story goes, not reminisce in the past. Conderisring how long it took to get Halo remake after Halo infite, continuing in that direction would have lead to a decade of Halo Remakes. That would have been the final bail in the coffin for Halo. The only way to mitigate that would be if anther studio was working on Halo remakes whist one working kn the next Halo game. But considering how Halo studios was structured they didnt have a clue. I am glad Asha gutted the team and is making brand a new studio.

That makes no sense. I have played E Day and im all for calling Mag shitty design out but toasty that she sidelined Marcus and Dom is an outright lie. An argument can be made for Reyes and is better developed that Mags. Just bacause she has a history with gears doesnt mean she is right.

Truthfully anyone who has played E Day know full well that she doesnt do that. She is barely spoken about or relevant in the game. She is not a develop character who goes through a tropical character arc, even when its time for her to shine in chapter 4. Although I would have loved to see more of Marcus and Dom She most definitely does not outshine them. All the highlights of her on X are it nothing.

That's not enough. Control Resonant is exactly what a true AAA game should be, making its low player numbers an absolute joke. Watching an incredible project get stuck at an estimated a mere 40k concurrent players on steam is just painful. For years, the internet has done nothing but whine about AAA games lacking innovation and treating players like idiots with obnoxious yellow paint and spoon-fed puzzles. But the moment a developer actually listens and gives us a game that respects our intelligence, everyone closes their wallets. We need to be backing these games with our money if we want the industry to change look at how the community showed up to turn Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 into a massive success. Remedy needed a major win, and they gave us their absolute best work with Control Resonant. Yet, the community and the gaming media have completely hung them out to dry. If this is how we treat games that take risks, I won't blame Remedy for a second if their next game is covered in yellow paint from start to finish. Stop complaining about the state of gaming if you aren't going to buy the good ones. Put your money where your mouth is or shut up.

If they are extending the eligibility to include GTA 6 that unfair. Control resonant should be GOTY

Even Debra dont want her face in the games. Her face is on every game because it meants the DEI quota of, oh look we made a black woman in charge. It's tiresome.

That to be honest would have been a clusterfuck. Resident evil works with only 2 main protagonist and adding all familiar faces ruins it. Its like who do you want to control and how much of their sotry is explored.

This Mfer actually has followers....

What do you mean she look bad? She is how's she looks in the game...like a tried 40 Yr old wine mom. I mean that what you lot we defending right?

I have never seen someone so shit at this game. Giving DSP gaming vibe

They are going to shoot themselves in the foot if they do the less powerful version. No one is buying that. And what the series S has shown us that that its doesnt bring sale nor it help devlopers. The handheld on the other hand is a good idea.
