1. Propaganda Militar y Política: Entre la Sátira y el Reclutamiento.
Los jugadores identifican y debaten la presencia de propaganda militar y política en los videojuegos. Se discute la delgada línea entre la sátira, como en 'Helldivers', que parodia regímenes fascistas, y las herramientas de reclutamiento más directas, como la serie 'Call of Duty' o 'America's Army', que a menudo son vistas como propaganda imperialista.
- Actually no i won't those games are straight up us military propaganda and you're both falling for it and pushing it to others by drawing your hunky war criminal blorbo.
- Part of growing up as a gamer means realizing how fucking unreal it is that the us army has an entire game series dedicated to spreading its imperialist propaganda.
- The entire game is drenched in irony about the nature of propaganda, kind of starship troopers the movie in feel, according to one of my younger friends who plays.
- Soif i understand this correctly, helldivers is even more true to the spirit of starship troopers than i thought before. Because the fascists actually take the satirical propaganda in this game at face value?
- I prefer my military propaganda to make me not realize i'm enjoying military propganda like the logistics of building the f-117 nighthawk or top gun or top gun maverick or call of duty campaigns.
2. 'No Soy Inmune': La Autoconciencia del Jugador y la Propaganda de Fans.
Existe un sentimiento común entre los jugadores de reconocer su propia susceptibilidad al marketing y al diseño de personajes. La frase "no soy inmune a la propaganda" se repite con frecuencia para admitir que se sienten atraídos por un juego o personaje. A su vez, el término "propaganda" es reapropiado por los fans para promover sus personajes, parejas (ships) o juegos favoritos de una manera más lúdica y personal.
- I am not immune to propaganda u-u (also i am a character designer at heart so i guess it was bound to happen njkdnfdbjkj).
- Me with 90% of the trailers from any given gaming event: do i even like video games anymore? me when i find out about the 3d anime platformer where you play as a skateboarding train: …so it turns out i am *not* immune to propaganda.
- I am not immune to propaganda (buying and building gunpla after watching show that features said mech).
- Ok i can feel the drawing drive, to to spread propaganda of my favorite chars. Or live my kinks out who knows.
- Just found out that if i want to spread my crackship propaganda i actually have to draw it myself. Messed up and cruel imo.
3. Cuando el Juego Salta a la Realidad: IP Usadas para Fines Políticos.
Se genera una fuerte controversia cuando propiedades intelectuales de videojuegos, como Pokémon, son utilizadas por entidades gubernamentales para fines de propaganda en el mundo real. La comunidad de jugadores critica duramente estos actos, señalando la hipocresía de las empresas que persiguen legalmente a los fans por proyectos pequeños mientras guardan silencio ante el uso de sus franquicias para mensajes políticos divisivos.
- Fan games, palworld, fan art: we must protect our copyright. This could damage our brand! an actual fascist regime using your stuff on its propaganda: i sleep. It's out of our hands.
- Nostalgia, games, & cute branding aren’t neutral when they’re used to soften state power. If you’re angry at “politics in games” but not at ice turning pokémon into a propaganda tool, maybe you’re not against politics.
- I just saw that dhs made another of their propaganda videos, this time using the pokemon theme song and visuals. I really hope nintendo proves they have a stronger spine than disney, because this is the rare occasion that i'll back up their litigious tendencies.
- It is a new low to use a beloved children’s game franchise for their hateful propaganda.
4. El Debate Filosófico: ¿Arte, Mensaje o 'Propaganda Woke'?
Dentro de la comunidad existe un debate sobre la distinción entre arte y propaganda. Algunos sostienen que un juego con una agenda ideológica explícita deja de ser arte para convertirse en una herramienta de conversión. Este debate se extiende al uso del término "propaganda woke" como una crítica recurrente hacia juegos que incluyen diversidad o abordan temas sociales, cuestionando si todo contenido con un mensaje es inherentemente propagandístico.
- My (very personal) view is i tend to believe propaganda is antithetical to being art. When a game like hatred is made, it's not made to express something or to connect, it's made to convert and propagate an ideology.
- It’s crazy that we were once having a discussion about games being art, and then the gamers unanimously declared that they don’t want art. They want propaganda they can spank it to.
- This advertisement would have been called " woke d.e.i. Propaganda " by today's unreasonable audiences. It is a video game widget that draws pictures .
- Couldn’t every sh game be considered “woke propaganda” lmao. There’s more than one that’s about sexism.
- You're probably projecting your own ideas and bias from your job onto the game, seeing it everywhere unnecessarily. The story isn't about trying to make a message on imperialism. Not everything is trying to be propaganda.
