I went down the modern gaming rabbit hole

[j450n2]

And I found Sweet Baby Inc.

Who is Sweet Baby Inc? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfnbjSz7QMs

and why is their website so creepy?
https://sweetbabyinc.com/


I have been gaming for nearly 30 years.
As of today I will no longer be purchasing games from these companies. I've had enough.
I would encourage you to do your own research before making any game purchases from now on.

The only way we can ensure quality games without an agenda is to stop throwing money at companies that work with Sweet Baby Inc and are after a high ESG score.

This is my boycott list.

Blacklist (will not purchase under any circumstance)

Any project that is involved with Sweet Baby Inc I will no longer be purchasing. That includes Grand Theft Auto 6.

Here's the list of companies I am boycotting

Bethesda

Remedy

Insomniac

Ubisoft

Electronic Arts

Microsoft

Bungie

Activision Blizzard

Naughty Dog

Konami

Rocksteady

Santa Monica Studio


Game companies I will tentatively support (likely won't purchase the games unless they are at a steep discount):

Capcom (I strongly disagree with charging $6 for costumes in Street Fighter 6, but they're doing great with Resident Evil in my opinion)

Valve (If Sweet Baby Inc is involved in any of their future projects they will not see any $ from me)

CD Projekt Red

Square Enix

Playstation exclusives

Rockstar (But again, if Sweet Baby is involved it's a no from me)



Companies I will continue to support (at the moment)

From Software

Nintendo

Easy, Sir Jester Farm. You know nobody here really cares about your milquetoast opinion on "woke", or your self inflicted boycott. You just want attention, jester awards, and to bait people into incivility so you can report them using...rather dated unoriginal material.

I want attention? Ok lol. When did I report you? Can you show me on the doll where I hurt your fee fees? You seem really mad. Idgaf if anyone agrees or disagrees with me, I am simply expressing my opinion that any politics; left, right, or center should not be in videogames. If a company is forcing an agenda on their players, I believe it should be boycotted. Do I care if you boycott it or not? No. I simply dgaf anymore and will not support bs. Keep consuming bs if it makes you happy

You're quite literally the one pitching a fit because...games have content that hurt your feelings.

Nope. You still don't get the point. It's because of people like you that we continue to have endless microtransactions and a forced political agenda in nearly every triple A title.

Video games have had political overtone in them since at least the 80's. But hey, I'll bite.

Define "forced political agenda"

Uh. Not how the word forced works.
Have you even played a video game?
Or read a book?
From the last 300 years?

12 year old account, 0 post history until you start your little brigade on Starfield's forums. You're pretty transparent, pal.

This is an actual issue, most games will be affected by this unless small indie dev with principles, because most companies and people will want that money. I'm not even mad at the content really, just don't need a mass social engineering agenda invading every damn game and changing creative vision.

Another thing I hate is AAA companies acting as indie devs, that's bs. Nexon with dave the diver was included as an indie game.

And yet nobody will actually say what this "agenda" is.

Environmental, social, and corporate governance

they get money by having a good score of that. I don't know further than that, you'd have to guess.

No one really cares what companies you do or don't like. You can just choose not to like them. You don't need to make a thread to tell everyone who doesn't even care in the first place, that you don't like them. Why do you care what we think anyway? It's not our money that you are holding back from these companies, it's yours.

People today can't just think something, they have to let the whole world know it too.

It's not about not liking companies, it's about the videogame industry as a whole being invaded with bribes to push an agenda in every single game, indies are at risk too.

That'd be a valid take if OP didn't have his own agenda, as evident by his post history.

Then don't buy gamesif you think they have some agenda or something you don't agree with.

Problem solved. No need to let everyone else know.

Not checked, is it that bad? Anyways, ignoring op, the topic should be discussed. If nobody has a problem with it, it is what it is, but it should definitely be known and not be swept under the rug.

Everyone should know what they're doing and what they're buying and make a choice from there... Why shouldn't people know? Simply don't click the article/topic if you don't want to know.

OP is a 12 year old account with 0 post history until Sept, where he starts brigading Starfield's forums and calling people "wokies". I'll let you decide.
