GTA VI Trailer Breaks YouTube—Is Rockstar Finally Waking Up?

GTA VI Trailer Breaks Records, But Fans Question Delay and Direction Rockstar just dropped the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, and in true GTA fashion, the internet exploded.We're talking 15 million views in under three hours - an absolutely disgusting flex from a franchise that’s been chilling on GTA V since the Obama administration.The new trailer gives us a sun-soaked look at Leonida (aka Not-Florida) and introduces us to Jason and Lucia - our new chaos agents in crime. But it also came with a twist: the game’s been delayed until May 2026.So yeah, more waiting.Yay...But before we go full rage-mode about the delay, let’s talk about the trailer, the weird rumor mill, and why this game might be getting a much-needed de-wokification pass. GTA VI Trailer Hits 15M Views in 3 Hours (Because of Course It Did) […]

The Game Has Changed (And So Have the Players) Another day, another group of pink-haired, pronoun-pushing “games journalists” shown the door - this time, courtesy of Valnet’s buyout of Polygon.And if that headline already made someone on Twitter clutch their Funko Pops, good. Because this isn’t just a one-off acquisition.It’s the latest checkpoint in a much bigger campaign: the de-wokification of gaming media.

We were told our desire to, y’know, actually enjoy video games was selfish, outdated, and somehow harmful to marginalized NPCs. But now? The tide’s […]

The Culture War Reloaded: Gaming's New Battlefront Welcome to ground zero of the gaming culture war - where pixels meet politics and everyone’s pointing fingers through cracked mirrors. In one corner, we’ve got ex-legacy media dinosaurs and DEI activists like Sweet Baby Inc., clutching pearls while playing gatekeeper. In the other?Developers, players, and creators just trying to make cool sh*t without pandering to woke ideologies and not checking twelve and a half identity boxes.From moral panic over “the wrong kind of representation” to journalists screaming victim while they plan harassment in questionable Discord servers, the hypocrisy is getting harder to ignore. Let's takes a flamethrower […]

Gaming Media’s Selective Reporting and Weaponizing Controversy

Media Manufacturing Discourse and Sweeping Others Under the Rug Ah, gaming journalism - the noble profession where integrity bows before agendas, and headlines are more carefully curated than an Ubisoft press conference.Today, we dive into the strange case of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, two games with same-sex romance options, yet one got paraded around like the second coming of progressive gaming while the other got a footnote buried under a pile of Ubisoft PR fluff. Hans Capon: The Romance Option That Divided Gamers Let’s start with Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the sequel to the historically immersive RPG that made “realism” its entire personality. This time, the developers thought, “Hey, let’s add a little extra...choice,” and in came the ability to romance Lord Hans Capon. While Henry was canonically straight in the first game, I personally didn't […]

Assassin’s Creed: Shadows – A Missed Strike in the Dark

Assassin's Creed: Shadows—A Dive into Ubisoft's Latest Controversy Magnet Ubisoft’s latest Assassin’s Creed entry, Shadows, has landed - and with it, a tidal wave of controversy.From its historical liberties to marketing disasters, this game is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. But perhaps the biggest red flag is Ubisoft’s so-called "anti-harassment plan"—a move some see as preemptive damage control.Let’s break it all down. Was Yasuke an Actual Samurai? Let's kick things off with our protagonist, Yasuke. Ubisoft proudly presents him as an African samurai, a bold move that screams diversity. But hold your katanas - historical records about Yasuke are as scarce as a stealthy ninja in broad daylight. While it's documented that Yasuke arrived in Japan and caught the eye of Oda Nobunaga, the leap to samurai status is more speculative than solid. Some historians, like Yu Hirayama, argue that Yasuke […]

Is Monster Hunter Wilds Woke? Spoiler: No, and Here’s Why

Is Monster Hunter Wilds Woke? There’s a weird trend happening where every successful game gets hijacked by left-leaning ideologues who desperately want to claim it as one of their own. Monster Hunter Wilds is the latest victim of this nonsense, with some loud voices on the internet trying to push the idea that it’s “woke.” But let’s be real - this isn’t Dragon Age: The Veilguard, this isn’t Concord, and this isn’t some Ubisoft checklist simulator where the straight white dude is a bumbling idiot who needs a lecture from the stunning and brave female lead. Monster Hunter Wilds is just a damn good game, and any “woke” accusations being thrown around are people grasping at straws. The “Body Type A/B” Argument – Not New, Not Woke One of the first things the “woke” accusers latch onto is that Monster Hunter Wilds […]

As of now, Monster Hunter Wilds holds a "Mixed" rating, with only 47% […]

SmashJT and McDizzle: How a “Journalistic Experiment” Backfired

A Tale As Old As Time The internet is full of clout-chasers looking for their 15 minutes of fame, and the gaming industry is no exception.The latest case?YouTuber McDizzle Gaming decided the best way to make a name for himself was to take down a bigger name - SmashJT. And in doing so, he pulled one of the most dishonest tricks in the book: impersonating an Ubisoft employee to manipulate SmashJT into reporting false information, just to...prove a point?The result was a tangled mess of deception, hypocrisy, and a failed attempt at self-promotion. The Setup: A Dishonest "Test" of Integrity? McDizzle, under the guise of an Ubisoft employee, fed SmashJT a fake story about a made up Assasin's Creed: Shadows leak. I have a breaking, super-exclusive leak too: it's going to be bad.SmashJT, a former QA tester for Sony Online Entertainment […]
