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.

They've been watching this video I presume
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.
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.
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

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".
Why these games?Also, what is up with Polish people?
Unfortunately, a lot of us have extra strong brainworms. Nationalism + dogmatic free-market liberalism.

This "joke" is touchy for me. My country went through suffering not too dissimilar from colonialism. No matter of my country being part of the imperial bloc now, I as a communist am proud of my fore-fathers resisting this oppression, and even helping Haiti win it's independence.
There was nothing good that came out of partitions, and even now today that period is being used and abused by our right wing propaganda to fuel xenophobia.
I find this "joke" reactionary and hope you can do better next time. You can be critical of Poland in other and more relevant ways, but this ain't it.
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.
far-rightcore
EVERYTHING IS JUST AESTHETICS
- by playing more hecking DARK SOVLS, my fellow CHVDS, we will RESVRRECT the IMPERIVM
lol, they're Polish and didn't even put Witcherino Tres on their list. Is Geraldo too woke now?
He is so masculine that it makes it gay.
It has powerful wamen so it is woke 😔
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.
If most people on Hexbear had a safe existence, happy childhood, and meaningful social life then they would not be here.
Bro don't out me like this
I have those things, I just like to be right about things and ended up here by refusing more and more incorrect things.
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
If most people on Hexbear had a safe existence, happy childhood, and meaningful social life then they would not be here.
... 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.
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 don't think any of these games, except maybe EUIV, are in any way pro-fascist.
Though it's not like fascists would ever put in the effort to really make their own video games, that takes time, effort, skill and creativity, and if they had those they probably wouldn't be fascists.
EUIV is just pro colonialism and imperialism, no fascism there. Thats HOI IV /s
I hated the secret Helltaker ending where Malina became an Aleksandr Dugin supporter smh my head
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.
this is peak diegetic essentialism lmao.
i played half of these, i can safely say they have nothing to do with rightwankery, lmao
Surprised they went for EU4 over HOI.
Edit: Oh, I see they're Polish.
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
I only know two of the things on here
one of them is an allegory for the environmental destruction wrought by the petroleum industry
and the other is Dark Souls, which is so open to interpretation it's practically a free space
Tbh Dark Souls overarching plot is kinda leftist.
The whole premise is that the ruling class has hoarded what gave them power for thousands of years and manipulate the lower class to literally immolate themselves to keep the system running. Across the series the (arguably) good endings all have something to do with trying end the system.
We will own the left and produce racial purity by checks notes completing simple puzzles and thirsting over .pngs of women in suits.
Helltaker is honestly less political than tetris, you do not play for ideological reasons, you play it because you're a horny idiot. I know because I'm a horny idiot.
Lmao I saw a similar list back in September

Pretending to enjoy the Dead or Alive volleyball games to own the libs.
"It has sexualized women in it, therefor it is conservative." Seems almost contradictory? I know chuds love sexualized women in games but dont they also want tradwives that cover up? They're so inconsistent about this.
Also Ive actually heard the lastest DOA Extreme is actually kind of a fun game when you focus on just the volleyball lol.
Is this person being an idiot as a bit? One person there points out that Warhammer is a parody of conservative ideology. This guy responds "how? I'm not a demon, alien, or a fascist."
Yeah this was the one that made me say "another one".
Metal gear rising, a game were the final battle is against a fucking maga president, is a right game, well i guess I'm a little out of touch
These people listened to Mr. Nanomachines, Son! and were like
"he's so true just like me frfr"When I see Persona 4 and 5, it now makes more sense. They see themselves as the villain and they're okay with that.
Spy x Family is the only thing I can squint and maybe see where they're coming from. It's about a simulated nuclear family becoming more organic, which I could see appealing to conservatives but not edgy 14 year olds that would see themselves as Adachi. Because even then, while the west are the "good guys", most of the anime has been more about trying to establish peace rather than genocide the east.
Persona 5
The game where you use magic powers to not-
not-Shinzo Abe. Very right wing.If we're just putting things down that we like as an aesthetic, dibs on shovel knight.
nerdy teenager who just learned about politics from twitter. give him 5 years and he'll be a "normal" conservative.
Unless I'm being trolled massively, I want to drag these neckbeards out of their mommy's basement and force them to touch grass.
But now that we're on the subject, I claim Sly Cooper as an honorary comrade: he promotes
against terrorists, and one of them talks almost identically to a far-right internet cool kid, right down to playing dress-up in the legacy of their piece of shit ancestors.I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
