this looks like a long time but initially it said 1 MONTH 15 days
#i think i will just have to grab cutscene footage from online... im not waiting for that sh... lmao#this has me admitting that i'm not a gamer and left that identity behind some time ago... which is kind of sad but ok#thoughh when witcher 4 drops... 😈#oh my god i typed witcher 34 instead of witcher 4. i think that already exists on the internet LOL#i'm actually not as excited for w4 as i am for the remaster of the first game#i also don't have any saves and i need footage of like some late-quest stuff (just for a mention of lore inconsistencies LOL)#like what do i do go beat tw3 AGAIN just to get a clip of ciri facing the white frost#...................... well........#ok ngl actually a shot of emhyr in the beginning of the game would be better to explain 'lore inconsistencies'#because that's probably more aggravating to me than the 'we changed the white frost so you can fight it' thing#that thing is understandable. that's like basic video game logic. antagonists can be fought...#and though i don't like that messaging that forces of nature can be fought...#i understand this is a AAA game with outcomes that need to be written as endings. it's not an experiential VN#emhyr in tw3 though has just annoyed me and has actually annoyed me ever since i found out his character from the books#after all that you're gonna take him and pretend he just wanted to be a better dad and have a good heir on the throne...#well ok he did want a good heir on the throne. to be fair. just. not ciri but her child ... ahem#tw3 just dropped that pregnancy plot like a hot potato 😭 because it's so uncomfortable#without vilgefortz to decapitate in the end and the lodge actively plotting around i admit it loses its meaning#also to be fair tw3 does not have that throughline about reproduction and destiny that the books do#like the begetting of progeny is a huge huge huge theme in the books and so ciri's storyline is just one of a few ways it comes up#without geralt and yennefer specifically being angsty at the start about children it doesn't really work as a plot for ciri later on#the elbow-high diaries

Youtuber Extra Credits: *says that when a person plays as a Nazi in a SHOOTER GAME it makes them a Nazi*
Me: So I guess me playing We Happy Few, taking Joy and having the option of killing people if I wanted to makes me a druggie killer? Yeah I don’t think so
So basically this Youtuber, Extra Credits, in his knowledge decided that people who play as Nazis in shooter games are nazis themselves in his video. Just WTF, that’s like saying what I said above. Apparently, using his logic, me playing We Happy Few makes me a druggie killer because I have to take Joy or Sunshine to make sure I don’t get Bobbys, Wellington Wellies or Joy Doctors to murder my dumbass! Any normal minded person will tell you that Nazis are scum, these guys killed millions of people because they weren’t “perfect”! And this Youtuber is triggered by a fucking video game?! There were real people who died under Nazi control, real people who fought to free those poor people who watched (not by choice) as their friends and family were killed in horrible ways, soldiers that were scared with shit that they saw and this young man has the nerve to say “you don’t understand the history!” Of course we do, the game itself is just fun, in my eyes, you’re saying “Fuck the people who work their asses off to make the games someone like me likes (I don’t play a lot of shooters, borderlands, but I find it cool when a historical reference is made in a game)!” I admire those who work hard with both the artwork and story board, I imagine that those in the gaming industry must want to scream in rage when not everyone agrees on one thing (I know I would, plus I suck at drawing, so I love looking at talented people like Whitney Clayton, who did a lot of the artwork for We Happy Few).

(Dr. Verloc, antagonist of We Happy Few and creator of Joy)
People go to school to make video games, for a long time I imagine (not as long as a doctor, but long enough to get graphics/drawing down I imagine). Also “Let’s make people not play as terrorists anymore” and “Not accurate weapons”?! One, no one is forcing people to play as terrorists, I’ve seen shooter gameplay and a lot of the time you can choose your team, some of the time you can’t (aka It’s usually fucking RANDOMIZED!!) As for the weapons, no shit a lot of the time the weapons aren’t going to be “realistic”, it’s called a “video game” for a reason! It’s a work of fucking FICTION!!
Word of advice: How about you not play those “Nazi shooters” and play games that don’t upset you. Play Silent Hill or Resident Evil if you want realism!
(Sorry for the rant, but as a gamer, this shit gets under my skin when people like this try to say that because I like games mean I’m trying to “normalize” evil. Just WTF people?!)
#We Happy Few#Just WTF?!#I hate people like this!#This guy needs a history lesson!#I may game but no way do I normalize evil!#sorry for the rant
