Your rants may be intended to be amusing, but persuading people who haven’t played the game yet that it features a message of intolerance when it definitely doesn’t is not funny anymore – it’s slander. There is nothing sexist or racist in the game at all, no matter how much you want to project it into it. I’m Poki, the author of the game.Įven more than you, John, don’t seem to get the humour of my game, I don’t get the humour of your review. The "moral" is right in front of you and it's even more clear than in Harveys new Eyes for example. But saying Deponia is sexist, racist and whatnot is wrong. See what the guy did there? Look, I am not saying that these "attributes" people mentioned aren't featured in the game. "thick seam of misogyny that runs throughout, renders it an ugly, foul experience" "nasty, stupid, and most damningly of all, badly constructed adventure" "I’m not going to pretend I finished the game." "feel sorry for people who find this the height of wit." "embarrassing, tawdry, sexist and arguably racist crap." Here are a few examples of what Walker has said about Deponia: Ok, I am feeling like we are talking past each other, so, yeah. But mostly you here a "romantic adventure" or other nonsense stuff, which isn't fair either. This sort of humor isn't everyone's cup of tea as you said, so this should be public in reviews. I on the other hand am wondering why these attributes aren't well known and can only blame the community for obviously hiding those. Another one named some explicit examples. My point was just that these attributes are completely spot on. Originally posted by Terfio:I didn't read the review nor will I ever do. Well, I believe Walker knows that his Deponia reviews are complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, it is a common tactic to write nonsense to generate discussion and traffic. Yes, the main character is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (maybe to the point of being obnoxious) but only because the game doesn't tell you every 2 seconds, doesn't mean the game is bad. He has been ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on the series since the first game! He could have just said something along the lines of: "this is not my cup of tea." But instead he went on to ♥♥♥♥ on Deponia 2, 3 and 4. I would have done the same."īut it is the problem of the reviewer. But its all within the humor of this game and every "normal" person would identify it as "holy crap he didnt really do that" instead of "oh yeah, right. Dont get me wrong : I love Deponia, and the puzzles regarding these adjectives are somewhat obnoxious. If you never heard of this critism then thats not the problem of the reviewer but rather the community. Originally posted by Terfio:"sexist, ableist and racist" ?
