Gamers vs. Gender Ideology: SEGA’s Kaleidoscope Problem

“Gotta go fast” has officially turned into “Gotta go woke.” In a move that sparked confusion, frustration, and a fair bit of gamer whiplash, SEGA has joined the latest Pride Month corporate campaign by updating their logo with rainbow colors and announcing a fundraising partnership with the UK-based Kaleidoscope International Trust. What seems like harmless virtue signaling on the surface actually runs much deeper once you follow the pixelated breadcrumbs.Turns out, this isn’t just about a colorful logo or tweeting out #LoveIsLove. SEGA’s proudly aligning itself with a hyper-political organization actively working to push extreme gender ideology into international policy. So let’s break it down and talk about why gamers everywhere have reason to be side-eyeing the blue blur’s handlers these days. Who Is Kaleidoscope Trust, and Why Should Gamers Care? Kaleidoscope International Trust describes itself as an organization fighting for “a future […]

The Curious Case of Sweet Baby Inc. – Hidden Origins Unveiled?

Sweet Baby Inc. and the Ghost in the Startup Machine Let’s be real - Sweet Baby Inc. (SBI) has been a lightning rod for controversy in the gaming world, sparking the beginning of the second wave of Gamergate last year. They’re a mysterious narrative consulting firm that keeps popping up on AAA projects like your ex in your Instagram feed. They often bring with them a certain...flavor. You know the one. That distinct taste of forced DEI checkboxes, preachy character writing, and storylines that feel more like corporate HR trainings than actual games - all wrapped up in some neon purple packaging.Now, a new twist has emerged from the shadowy underworld of YouTube commentary, thanks to a recent deep dive from Gothic Therapy, and it changes everything you thought you knew about SBI.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjBXOx700SYVideo: The End of the Sweet Baby Lie: Hidden Founder […]

Press X to Skip Bad Journalism: How Gaming Media Lost the Plot

Skipping Boss Fights: The Final Boss of Gaming Journalism Is Gaming Itself Remember when beating a tough boss felt like an achievement instead of a hate crime?Well, according to Kotaku's John Walker, that feeling is sooo 2008. In his latest piece of "I swear I like games, guys," titled "Could We Be About to Enter a Skippable Boss Fight Utopia", he excitedly reports that South of Midnight will include a boss skip button. Yes, a literal "Skip Boss" option, for those who apparently bought the game by accident and are just here for the vibes. Image Source: imgflip.com Let that sink in: imagine paying full price for a game, then opting to not actually play the game. We’ve reached a point where journalists want a “Press X to Not Try” feature - and they’re celebrating it like it’s the Second Coming of Accessibility […]

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.

Game Over for Activists: Polygon’s Purge is a Herald of Change

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.

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 […]
