Imagine thinking New Vegas is friendly to the far right.
I think MGRR is weirder. I can at least see how Caesar might fool someone into thinking he’s not a criticism of their ideology (helps that I have a close friend who’s leftist but thinks Caesar is preferable to the NCR an House).
But I can’t IMAGINE looking at fucking Senator Armstrong being like “literally me” and not realizing he’s a parody of your shitty ideology.
lol thinking any Metal Gear is friendly to the far right…
Basically a case study in how parody from the left must be cartoonish and expository lest it be misinterpreted by mainstream Westerners.
But MGR:R’s parody IS cartoonish and expository
So is fallout 3 and yet

They’ve been watching this video I presume
I always end out going Yes Man cause I can fucking solo all thee armies in their entirety at once without using a stimpak by endgame. I decide who lives and who dies in the wasteland. Stands to reason that I’m in fucking charge.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Liberty PrimeWait, that was Fallout 3. All the 3D Fallouts might as well be the same game to me.
Ha right? I get 3 and NV mixed up all the time
i mean, you can play as an explicit neo-reactionary.
It’s by far the least satisfying playthrough. When I did a Legion playthrough so I could see everything I made my headcannon to be that after I usurped Caesar I decreed that the Legion Be Normal. Basically same results as Yes Man but with probably an awkward internal civil war thing after and no robots.
A bunch of comments going “buddy you might be trans.” Beyond the fallout nv meme like most of the things on this list either focused on girls, allow you to play as a girl or are games where you can basically ignore the protagonists gender. This would also explain the lack of The Witcher from someone with a polish flag in bio.
Don’t know most of these but: aren’t Dark Souls, FO:NV, and MG:R stereotypical eggy transfemme games?
A ton of people in the replies were telling them they might be trans lol.
Chuds liking fallout is proof no amount of subtext is enough for some people. You have to explicitly bash people over the head with your intended message if you dont want people to interpret it as exactly the opposite.
Fallout 3 has a 100 foot tall robot made by the US government that shoots lasers out of its eyes while screaming “I hate communism”. A group of rogue soldiers with a technology fetish managed to take over this robot in a dramatic scene where said 100 foot tall robot stomps through the streets of the nuclear blasted ruins of Washington D.C. fighting off the remains of the federal government. Chuds unironically love liberty prime anyway. There is no bashing over the heads blatant enough for these people
I always liked how it says “death is preferable to communism” in a fucked up dead wasteland. Like, really? I think I’d take the communism over having my dick melt off because a nuclear automobile blew up during a gun fight over a can of chef boyardee.
Chuds couldn’t read subtext if it was tattooed to their retinas.
plus MG:R pretty explicitly has the protagonist fighting against the US government and global imperialism. The first mission is trying to prevent a left of center African head of state from being assassinated!
Only a true patriot would fight the DEEEEEEEP STATE!
The final boss literally talks about making America great again (pre-Trump, no less). I guess they just go “haha the wrong side won”.
Cyberpunk where you can make a female masculine voice character or a male feminine voice charecter have straight, gay, and bisexual relations is a…
far right typed game.The cyberpunk genre is pretty clearly a criticism of capitalism, but the main story in the game is basically a libertarians response to that, so they’re not totally off the mark.
pirated it since 2.0 and PL hit and you’re pretty much spot on. “corporations are bad because they control everything, but not because capitalism itself is bad, i just want to blow shit up by myself”
The story with a setting designed by an open communist, no less.
Why these games?Also, what is up with Polish people?
Unfortunately, a lot of us have extra strong brainworms. Nationalism + dogmatic free-market liberalism.

EVERYTHING IS JUST AESTHETICS
I was about to post something about media illiteracy, but on second thought it looks like a dumb attempt to claim some relatively innocuous pieces of media.
Like, no way in hell can anyone claim that MGR:R’s politics is right leaning
They just think Armstrong was actually the good guy. No I’m not kidding.
lol, they’re Polish and didn’t even put Witcherino Tres on their list. Is Geraldo too woke now?
It has powerful wamen so it is woke 😔
- by playing more hecking DARK SOVLS, my fellow CHVDS, we will RESVRRECT the IMPERIVM
To a certain extent this is true, but less so a political ideology and more “Isolated person who is terminally online” which happens to have a 1-1 overlap with both communists and fascists.
Let’s be honest, well-adjusted people are not playing HellTaker and DDLC despite them being very good games. Most people play FO:NV once or twice and think it’s pretty good. They don’t install 500+ mods to try to escape from the meaninglessness of existing in a society in which you can neither influence nor find comfort in. It’s just an unfortunate shared characteristic between us the far-right wing.
If most people on Hexbear had a safe existence, happy childhood, and meaningful social life then they would not be here.
I had all of these things, I just have a lot of free time at my email job.

Bro don’t out me like this
If most people on Hexbear had a safe existence, happy childhood, and meaningful social life then they would not be here.
you take that back
I have those things, I just like to be right about things and ended up here by refusing more and more incorrect things.

… Is this “Communists are just angry losers” but from the left?
It’s “westerners as a group do not have the material basis to desire revolution because they live relatively comfortable lives so the people who disagree are isolated from society.”
The only people for whom the violence and chaos of revolutionary war would be worth it are largely traumatized or marginalized individuals. It’s why the vast majority of revolutions only happen in countries where the status quo was borderline hell. The idea that communists have better thoughts so they choose communism is pure liberal/idealistic ideology comrade.
Agree but theres also a number of comrades who were so spoiled that they fell into socialism as a way of rebellion and it likely made too much sense to leave.
I mean, I AM an angry loser, but not because I’m a pinko.
Come to think of it, yeah.
I cannot believe I was ever actually afraid of these people. Maybe they’re only a threat because they outnumber us by the millions (never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups), but individually they’re losers. Even the stereotypical right-wing bodybuilder, I have a cousin that fits the bill but he’s your run of the mill republican rather than an outright fash.
I hated the secret Helltaker ending where Malina became an Aleksandr Dugin supporter smh my head
this is peak diegetic essentialism lmao.
Persona 5
The villain of most of the game is a fascist strongman (and his closest supporters - explicitly portrayed as a collection of rich and powerful people) who schemes his way to power and gains support through a “We’re gonna make Japan strong” plattform.
Shin Megami Tensei and Persona often have stinky politics, especially P4 and SMT IV, but P5 is definitely among the better ones, even if the ending to the vanilla plot is kinda meh.
i played half of these, i can safely say they have nothing to do with rightwankery, lmao
If this Xheet is bait, it’s the level of bait where you smear shit in your face and go “made you angry” when other people react in any way
if this Xheet isnt bait, it’s just smearing shit in one’s face and thinking that’s a facial wash
