Dragging every single redditor into a classroom one by one and screaming paragraphs of Gadamer at them until they grasp the very basics of how we understand and make meaning

I don't know why compulsory reeducation is so often considered far too "authoritarian" and cruel. Anyone who ends up like this as an adult was clearly and utterly failed by their first education. In situations like these, the most humane thing we can do to course correct is to provide them with a second education, all expenses paid. If reeducation can produce a positive outcome for the last emperor of China, then I'm sure it can do the same for gamers.

How dare they make Fallout and BioShock political... I love games with no social commentary on them at all, like Resident Evil... The Pharmacy being evil is just fun pretend stuff, it's not a commentary on capitalism in medicine at all! /s

It's not like the seminal work of high fantasy that inspired an entire genre is actually a direct response to the author's personal trauma suffered by war or anything. It's surely not a (wee bit racist) allegory for the dangers of industrialization, industrial war, and a paean for an idyllic simpler pastoral/peasant life that never existed.

Especially the empire and Brettonia and really all the human factions are such lazy allegories for real places that they could have set it on an alternate dimension Earth. Im glad they didnt though, because despite what i just said they are very unique and if Brettonia was actually France it woupd be slightly offensive.

Also, beastmen remind me of how homophobia created the negative consequences of gay culture.

lazy uninspired writer if you add modern day mentality and political thoughts in a fantasy game

most mainstream fantasy is based on british and european empires

most fantastical societies are still patriarchal

most people are still peasants

Not just the genre of fantasy, or any one genre of media for that matter. All narrative-oriented phenomena are the manifest arms of ideology: novels, movies, games, religion, advertisements, propaganda, etc. Their actual form is not what is important, but more how they fit into the bigger picture of social communication -- like how the same concept can be indicated with many different words within a language and across languages.
