Games aren't "good" anymore due to actual design, its only "good" when it has a lot of advertising and is using nostalgia to turn all gamers into victims of stockholm syndrome.
Not necessarily always nostalgia, but definitely chasing the newest trends, be that in popular art styles(every indie game needs to be a pixel art) or oversaturation of a genre e.g roguelikes. Specialy roguelikes for me is so often just blatant "let me add RNG and a tedious repetitive progression system to pad out my totaly orginal and not at all procedural/filler content".

You don't get special points because you were made by conservatives, you have to make a good game like everyone else.
These people would scrap together a remake of Custer's Revenge and demand that it get every gaming award under the sun solely because it's a right-wing game.

The Game Awards
How many levels of made-up bullshit are we even on anymore? I want to hear this person's take on the ESPYs.
Imagine using this argument to justify why the crappy FNAF movie deserves an academy award.
the woke mob is cancelling me simply for telling an incoherent story that makes no goddamn sense
BG3 is flawed, but me and my friends can't stop thinking about it and playing it. Checkmate TERFs.
