I feel like the use of the word "woke" unironically in a LGBT award nomination acceptance should be instant grounds for that nomination being rescinded.

Lmao can't help being a chud

The chuds will never accept you no matter how much you virtue/vice signal.

I just watched that Manosphere documentary on Netflix and this dude speech sounds exactly like one of those dumbass streamers.

So glad I thought this series looked boring as hell

I know we've had threads on this guy before and I know some would rather not keep hearing about him anymore so I apologize for that...but this was just too amazingly dumb not to highlight.

Its such a nice gesture/olive branch towards a guy that has been knee deep in the gamergate paint and this is how he replies to it.

What a loser

Putting the "fragile" in fragile masculinity. Can't be seen to be "weak" with all the other alphas that he hangs out with every day, right?

lol good grief what a loser

Thanks for the award, just to maker it clear I'm not gay and I actually hate you.

The fucking audacity to be recognized for something that matters to a minority group and use that to go "yea thanks, but for real, fuck WOKE right?"

"all these other games having LGBT represenation do it out of some obligation or narrative. I just like dudes. Wait don't quote me on that!"

"We made the gay community happy and gave them the CHOICE to be themselves, just like we did for others in other choices and quests, and anyone who isn't interested probably didn't even notice."

So he's crediting himself for making a gay romance that others were able to ignore, is that it? Like "Don't ask, don't tell"? What an asshole.

I won't buy anything this dude is involved with. He showed who he was from the start.

When they tell you who they are, believe them the first time.

Fuck this guy

Fuck off.

The funniest part about this is that even though he's still posturing and has been the entire time this optional gay romance was revealed, a large vocal part of his fanbase hated it and had no problems letting him know about it. It doesn't matter about it being optional (like it is in most AAA works) it's the simple fact that it acknowledges gay people existed in the middle ages which contradicts the fantasy his fans have of the pre-modern era being a sacred anti-gay ant-black christian paradise.

These people have had no problem telling us what they want. They want the world to capitulate to them and give them the fantasy they desire. Which is and always has been a fantasy where only straight white men existed and held power. Where women were either fragile tradwives answering only to their husbands or sex dolls in sting bikinis for them to jack off to.

Vavra is an idiot but the fact that he willing pushed for a gay romance option in this game suggests to me he's not as far gone as much of his base is. He deserves the criticism for what he says but there might be hope for this frog man.

I'm not so sure that this is the thread to remark that deep down he's not as bad as the other chuds

Why would a cis-het dude proudly proclaiming he did queer media right turn down an award?

Because he's a miserable shitsack white supremacist homophobe who can get all the way fucked.

(To be clear I don't think he actually will, because it's a way of validating his bigotry.)

These people are so fucking dumb. So fucking owned by grifter culture. Dipshits.

I appreciate the continued threads, because the way the talk around KCD2 turned so positive I started to think I'd hallucinated the whole proclamation about wanting to be so-called historically accurate with the first one.

"I'm not woke. Please. I hate the gays I just wrote one as a joke. DEI is bad...love me fellow Nazis. Black people amirite? Women? More like won'tmen. Right? Right! Sieg h...*hysterically sobbing in a non woke way*"

Good to know that there were others at the company he also had to convince to add it. 100% make the games skippable because there were others just like him there.

Fuck this game. I feel like an idiot for falling for folks on this site assuring everyone that it wasn't immoral to support the game.

I wish I could refund it. It was my fault, I should have known better. Lesson learned.

I wondered what the hell organization would actually nominate this shit, but I see it's a community voted category.

The fact this game series isn't banned on Resetera like the Wizard Game is wild to me. This guy fucking sucks and has sucked for the entire existence of this website. He continues to be a piece of shit with every word that comes out of his mouth, and I don't get why we need to platform his game no matter how good it may be.

I'd be happy if this piece of shit never said another word again.

Eat shit, you dumb fucking piece of shit

"By way of conclusion, Vávra would like you to know that—though the inclusion of gay romances in KCD2 "was my idea, my decision and my responsibility and I had to convince others to do it"

oh so there are other pieces of shit in that studio?

Serve that magazine right for even nominating this game.

The easy skips just keep on coming, fuck these fools

It must be tiring being so beholden to and fearful of the emotions of the worst people on the internet.

I remember when he tried to act like he had seen the light and people were kind of buying it before this game came out, so I'm not surprised that he's back to doing his previous bullshit.

"I had to convince others to do it" could that not be seen as shoving it down his coworkers' throats?

people were kind of buying it before this game came out

Kingdom Come fans always do their best to ignore that it was made by a nazi idiot, so when Vavra made the shallowest attempt to seem reformed people believed it

"I had to convince others to do it" could that not be seen as shoving it down his coworkers' throats?

It just makes it seem that the studio has a few homophobic douchebags in lead positions

And the thing is, because other developers at the studio aren't as outspoken, people thought he was just a bad apple and everyone else is progressive whenever there were pleas for boycott.

I'm much more of a "believe people when they show you who they are" kind of guy. But if that's not you, then you do you.

But again, my main point is that it feels a bit tone deaf to pick a thread where he is clearly not showing any evidence of being "better", quite the opposite in fact, to end your post by talking how deep down there's still hope for him. He casually shat on the #1 thing Era fans of the game loved to trot out in defense of the game, and did it while accepting a nomination for it at that.

Tiresome scumbag. Hopefully he'll continue distancing from Warhorse to the point of actually leaving entirely. Small hope.

Also, why is "re-educating" someone to be more respectful towards vulnerable people being framed as invasive here? The lack of respect is the inaugural invasive element that he should be worried about when accepting that award.

and this is why i will continue to not buy or interact with their shit in any capacity. fuck Daniel Vavra. he is who he said he is from day one.

No, here is as bad. But he's not as far gone which is a difference. I don't think there's anything wrong in noticing that? I think Vavra could become a better person than he is now. I hope he can one day go through the personal growth to experience that. I believe people like this can and many do change. In this fucked up depressing world, can you really chide me for having just a little hope that things could better?

Were you already aware he's a fan of Nazis? I have yet to see him denounce Burzum.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/daniel-v%C3%A1vra-creative-director-at-warhorse-studios-steps-down-to-focus-on-turning-kingdom-come-deliverance-into-a-live-action-movie-or-series.1444474/#post-151747738

I'm never going to buy anything from this guy.

I really want to study the cognitive dissonance of someone who wants to write more diverse stories but who would be afraid to be seen as "woke." Like I've never seen such a think lmao

Vavra is one of those annoying online dudes obssessed with the roman empire and history as a way to yap about how bad society is nowadays, but Vavra went so deep into the "I WILL BE ACCURATE" well that he just went and wrote gay men because its accurate

I'm never going to buy anything from this guy.

The common sense take from anyone who spent 2 seconds looking into who he was, and the apologia from people wanting to say how KCD2 represented a change was always skeevy. Gross fucking bigot shithead turns out to be a gross fucking bigot shithead, shocking.

Only clowns buy games he has worked on.

Can't we just banish this piece of shit and the Metro dude and the transphobic hag to the shadow realm already? Good grief.

And people are still going to continue to support him and his games.

Very normal behavior not inflicted by brain rot. Very normal indeed.

Yiiiiiiiikes. Any fan of Varg is not trying to hide it that much, if you ask me.

This fucking loser just keeps digging himself further and further - grrrrrl those chuds will never accept you, why are you on your knees groveling again? Scum.

He remains the main reason that I'll never bother playing their games🤷 So many seem to have forgotten that he followed Neo Nazi FB pages etc

Talk more about that, please. I wasn't even aware of that.

I'll also add that in my experience, usually it's publishers and executives pushing back on those elements because they're afraid of online backlash, or in the current era, the US government and its hate machine. Try finding me a game exec from a AAA publisher who is all about representing queer folks, POCs, women etc... I'll wait.

So all those commentators who said they were buying the game because the team probably didn't share Vavra's views...

It was my idea, my decision and my responsibility and I had to convince others to do it.

That sounds a lot to me that a lot of the team share his horrific views. Fuck this guy and the Warhorse he rode in on.

I would immediately rescind that nomination if I were them.

It was a bold move to offer an olive branch, but it was never not going to be immediately snapped in half. The "shoving it down our throats" crowd isn't ever going to change for the better.

He knows he has a chud audience and doesn't want to alienate them.

In addition to being an adult child gamergater who actually does believe this.

Anyone using woke as a pejorative should not be eligible for these awards.

Reason #192928 not to buy Vavra's shit.

if that magazine has any sort of integrity, it will rescind those nominations

Nothing to apologize for. I'm still baffled by the decision to not ban threads for this cornball's games, and have said so many times. So I hope continued attention on the matter may one day move the needle here.

Isn't it a good thing that someone we generally disagree with added this type of diversity into the mega hit game and did it very well? Still don't have to love the guy, but this is a win IMO.

Just because Hitler made the trains run on time doesn't mean I'm going to view him with any less disdain.

(CLARIFICATION: This isn't to say that Vavra is Hitler. That previous sentence is just to point out that just because an asshole winds up doing something good if they're still acting like an asshole then that doesn't make them less of an asshole. Also Hitler didn't really make the trains run on time but it was repeated so much to give him a pass on 'other things' that it still wound up sticking.)

such strange behavior.

just pick a side dude.

lol. Funny thing is the way these games get hyped about here and the subtle 'Its not that simple, look he's got no problem with queer representation' I was like, ehh, maybe I should give it a chance.

End of the day you can be on point with one side of intersectionality and be a total fail to the point of bigoted fascist in another. One of the biggest pushers of worldwide white supremacist fascism is Peter Thiel, a queer man. One of the biggest anti-Semetic podcasts is by a Black woman, etc.

Fuck Vavra.

And my decision to avoid buying these games stands true, even though I really want to play them.

I feel like if you want people to respect your publication's awards that are specifically celebrating queerness, you probably shouldn't give one to the proud bigot's game.

I'm glad that I immediately uninstalled his game 10 minutes into it. Fuck all the way off.

Had no interest in the first game when I heard some of the dev comments and they've done nothing to earn my money since then.

Vavra is an enigma. The mental gymnastics he's living through, he's a walking contradiction.

Writes what is, arguably, a very progressive ("woke") game REALLY REALLY well, but seemingly feels afraid of being labelled as such by chuds, for some reason.

Just speaks to his arrogance that he as a cis hetero male thinks he can do gay romance better than gay and queer developers.

Oh hey there it is again, the reason I don't buy their games.

Yeah, good on him for writing it (a lot of people seemed to like it) but at the same time, I think this clearly shows he's not as comfortable with it as it might initially suggest.

A lot of guys will say they're cool with it and then end up showing their ass eventually unfortunately.

It's downright suspicious to me. Why would he go out of his way to include this (and make sure it is implemented well by all accounts) when it's so uncomfortable for him so much to even discuss the topic? "Historical accuracy" doesn't really explain it away. He could have just not included it.

I will continue to side-eye anyone who supports this asshole.

So fucking funny that he is like... closeted "woke"?

We always hear about faux-progressives or whatever who secretly hold conservative views but it's like in some weird way he is the inversion of that. Wants to seem "not woke" but then goes through with making a whole gay story line option which is, by all accounts, seemingly very well-done. And even admitting that the story is there so if queer players want to choose self-representation, they can. Like my dude, what do you think "woke" is?

So maybe he is more dumb than nefarious.

He's not dumb. He knows exactly what he's doing and he knows exactly how to get people to keep talking about him.

As an RPG fan with Bohemian ancestry, I've always been interested in this series, but every time I get an urge to try it, I just remember this asshole from the gamergate days. He's really an albatross around his studio's neck at this point.

When he said he had to convince others to have this happen, we can assume the rest of the team isn't exactly super progressive.

It's never just one in situations like these.

Sometimes, I wonder if Daniel Vavra could pass a mirror test. To look at someone else's work and recognise not a "woke agenda" or whatever he would claim, but a desire to give players an opportunity to be themselves or explore another's. But no, Daniel Vavra probably didn't even notice.

Is Daniel Vavra the stupidest man in the industry ? All the evidence points to yes. He looks at the mirror and recoils, not from himself but from what he sees; that pile of seething hatred and disdain--it scares him. To look at your work and not recognise it. To be nothing but a wild animal, frenzied at the sight of some monster in the mirror. And he will just never understand that he's looking at himself.

This dude is such an embarrassment. KCD2 is an all timer and it sucks that this is the person that's tied to it. Shutting up is free Vavra (I know he won't).

At least he's supposedly being shuffled off to work on some filmed project attached to the IP from what I recall. Still, guy can kick rocks.

If we take him at his word, he had to convince people on the team it was worth including. I sincerely doubt you get a better, more inclusive game with him fucked off writing a movie or whatever. He's shit, but he's clearly not the only problem.

It's literally a pro gay button defense….. ya know there's no gay people unless you specifically tell the game you want it which isn't fucking representation. Whatever I've grown to hate the cis and the straight who don't actually want me to live along them as an equal and view me as a prop.

"I wanted the gay romance but that doesn't make me gay!" Oh Vavra you are a proper sad person.

Ugh. My brother (who's 20 years older than I am, so an Xer) gets like this. He even votes left and is the only one in my family who was supportive of me being gay, but he reflexively rolls his eyes at anything he perceives as performatively woke, even though what does and doesn't qualify as 'performative' is basically arbitrary. More than anything, he doesn't want the association for some reason - he's proud to be a leftist, but averse to the idea of being woke.

Not really sure what's going on there, to be honest.

What a baffling piece of shit man made a story with progressive gay romance, Romani representation, jewish representation and even Musa of Mali is handled crazy good.

Like you always been piece of shit with shit views why do this if don't believe it. I would love someone do an open honest interview ask him why he do such good representation on subjects he never believed in.

Piece of shit of a man. I genuinely don't understand why such a game is allowed on Era when the director is such a motherfucker with obviously bigot ass views.

idk, thats what you get?

Nothing but options and choices in the industry far and wide, if the goal is to reward an LGBT creator / project.... Im pretty fucking confident you could have found far better choices of nomination than *check notes* Kingdom Come 2

like be serious, what did you expect

I never understood how this game and cyberpunk were sort of "forgetten and forgiven" without ever seeming to change or showing any contrition. Maybe I missed something somewhere

well he did, so now what? I noticed a running theme between that thread and the one about Silent Hill f that ree HATES the idea of devs doing justice to perspectives outside their own identities. 

I thought the wokies wanted creatives to take the time to research and accurately depict experiences outside their own??? isn't that how you get good representation???

The stuff about Israel I am seeing on the daily now is just a torrent of evil acts. It was always really bad but press being in Lebanon and there being more press outlets that aren't mainstream ones that report about Israel without the whitewashing we used to get, has resulted in just a litany of despicable shit.

On a related note Omer Bartov is an Israeli professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown University. Spoke to the New Yorker recently about a book he wrote about the Genocide in Gaza. Here he is talking about Zionism not being reformable. It's a good clip.

Ethan Klein is a race supremacist and a follower of the Zionist ideology. Sorry, but the game could be more "anti-Nazi" than it is now with the involvement of such a person.

Right. I've actually kind of been wondering whether I've been throwing around the term 'nazi' too loosely, whether in my thoughts or out loud, but I kind of don't think so. When I go off about alt-right incel chuds, I just go with fuckin' nazis at this point.

I get why people are doing the "Leopards eat my face" shtick and I don't feel much sympathy from her, but I'm going to say it, but I am getting the feeling of "I'm pro trans unless the trans person does something wrong, in which case they deserve transphobia" feeling from this thread, trans rights only on good behaviour, the same way a few ERA users decided it was okay to misgender Ezra Miller when their horrid shit was going down.

They deserve to be called out for being a right winger, they deserve to be called a bigoted shit, they deserve shit for throwing the rest of us trans people under the bus for their own personal gain despite Trump was obviously going to hurt her as well; she and no other trans person, not matter how much of an awful person they are deserves to be dead named or suffer from transphobia, die or suffer for being trans, if you're happy to throw some of us under the bus, I don't trust you to not throw us all under the bus if it comes down to it (something I've been feeling quite a bit the past here in US and UK politics). Same for any black person who voted for Trump doesn't deserve racism or gay person homophobia etc.

Trans rights are human rights, all humans, no matter who they are (and again she's an awful human being). If the ones who are deserve it are suffering like described, it means the good ones are suffering more and worse, you can't have one without the other.

Mind you, I dunno where the transphobia is in this threat:

The genocide deniers make me laugh there's just too much irrefutable proof put online of the many, many, many atrocities Israel do to Palestinians, especially at this point in time. Zios know, they will just deflect and act dumb trying they're hardest to show how THEY are the victims to the world. Let's not forget the Netenyahu paying 7000 shekels to goyims in the West to do social media PR for Israel is just laughable. Then there's AIPAC money and so much more behind the curtain deals Israel does. No one's falling for your Zionist tricks that shit don't work no more.

No, here is as bad. But he's not as far gone which is a difference. I don't think there's anything wrong in noticing that? I think Vavra could become a better person than he is now. I hope he can one day go through the personal growth to experience that. I believe people like this can and many do change. In this fucked up depressing world, can you really chide me for having just a little hope that things could better?

Chuck is a true believer in Zionism, the AIPAC money is just a bonus. He's been supporting Israel and demonizing Palestinians since the 90s.

Carlson stated that pro-Israel people believe that "their people, whoever they’re defending, are specially chosen by God and that others are sub-human," which would justify the way the supposed psychological influence works.

The anti-Israel personality stated to believe that the AmFest pool results came from an influence from the Israeli government, its defenders, and "informal employees in the USA."

"This is how the United States has somehow tied itself to the anchor of Gaza. Like, why are we responsible for Bibi’s [Benjamin Netanyahu] mass murder? Well, we are now. Partly because so many Americans have been told over and over and over: Your destiny is intertwined with Israel, Israel’s our most important ally, etc."

Carlson highlighted that he could not understand how hating all Muslims could be better than hating all Jews, concluding: "The answer, obviously, is it’s not. And does that mean hating their children? Their ancestors, their grandchildren? The whole thing is disgusting."

"When I remarked Hiroshima was disgusting and immoral, which it was, I was immediately attacked by Ben Shapiro. And you know my obvious conclusion was: he attacked me because it implicates what’s happening in Gaza. If it’s bad to bomb children to death in Hiroshima, it’s equally bad in Gaza… "

"Their mission is to defend whatever Israel does, whatever the Bibi government does, no matter what. The only reason they’re comfortable with what the government is doing with American backing in Gaza is that they don’t believe at the most basic level that humans are equal."

Trust me, I fully understand. I'm at 18 months sober from my alcohol addiction, an addiction that was so severe I'd get screened for suspected Wernicks, and when I quit successfully, I initially felt a crippling weight of dread that I was extremely notorious for my drunken misbehaviours. But I barely registered as a blip to most people, even made friends I don't remember what I did to make, and people I had hurt either have me on ignore or gave me the grace with regards to my mental and physical health and allowed me the space to be better.

People likely don't view you remotely as badly as your anxiety tells you. And your ability to acknowledge the perspectives of people who are being attacked by Starmer's government demonstrates a compassion and self awareness a lot of people don't have when discussing UK politics.

The Dr Who rejuvenation crash out was hilarious.

man are you US of America or US of Israel

Israel is the 51st state or actually reverse that to whatever province/state that the US is of Isreal. Makes more sense that way

These politicians are more loyal to Israel than their own country and constituents. When's the last time Lindsay Graham was in the news about US/South Carolina interests? Right. This crap borders on being treasonous.

Ole chucky wants that sweet sweet AIPAC money and to arm the other zionists, ffuuuuck you chuck

Chuck schumer is Israel first and not even hiding it. The disparity between the base and the politicians on the issue of Israel just shows how fake the US democracy is.

Chuck is a true believer in Zionism, the AIPAC money is just a bonus. He's been supporting Israel and demonizing Palestinians since the 90s.

Schumer was bought by AIPAC for nearly $1.8 million, so no surprise here.

Carlson stated that pro-Israel people believe that "their people, whoever they’re defending, are specially chosen by God and that others are sub-human," which would justify the way the supposed psychological influence works.

The anti-Israel personality stated to believe that the AmFest pool results came from an influence from the Israeli government, its defenders, and "informal employees in the USA."

"This is how the United States has somehow tied itself to the anchor of Gaza. Like, why are we responsible for Bibi’s [Benjamin Netanyahu] mass murder? Well, we are now. Partly because so many Americans have been told over and over and over: Your destiny is intertwined with Israel, Israel’s our most important ally, etc."

Carlson highlighted that he could not understand how hating all Muslims could be better than hating all Jews, concluding: "The answer, obviously, is it’s not. And does that mean hating their children? Their ancestors, their grandchildren? The whole thing is disgusting."

"When I remarked Hiroshima was disgusting and immoral, which it was, I was immediately attacked by Ben Shapiro. And you know my obvious conclusion was: he attacked me because it implicates what’s happening in Gaza. If it’s bad to bomb children to death in Hiroshima, it’s equally bad in Gaza… "

"Their mission is to defend whatever Israel does, whatever the Bibi government does, no matter what. The only reason they’re comfortable with what the government is doing with American backing in Gaza is that they don’t believe at the most basic level that humans are equal."

ResetEra or Stormfront is getting difficult.

For a forum of mostly very progressive people, I'm constantly shocked at how supportive a lot of people are in here of very hard-nosed right-wing style punishment. I get that the punishment here is probably on the short side, but wanting someone to be locked up and forced into labor for life is an unbelievably extreme punishment. People can change. That's a fundamental belief we need to hold on to. Of course there will be people who take advantage of that viewpoint, and there are certainly crimes that are irredeemable, but this is not one of them.

I get why people are doing the "Leopards eat my face" shtick and I don't feel much sympathy from her, but I'm going to say it, but I am getting the feeling of "I'm pro trans unless the trans person does something wrong, in which case they deserve transphobia" feeling from this thread, trans rights only on good behaviour, the same way a few ERA users decided it was okay to misgender Ezra Miller when their horrid shit was going down.

They deserve to be called out for being a right winger, they deserve to be called a bigoted shit, they deserve shit for throwing the rest of us trans people under the bus for their own personal gain despite Trump was obviously going to hurt her as well; she and no other trans person, not matter how much of an awful person they are deserves to be dead named or suffer from transphobia, die or suffer for being trans, if you're happy to throw some of us under the bus, I don't trust you to not throw us all under the bus if it comes down to it (something I've been feeling quite a bit the past here in US and UK politics). Same for any black person who voted for Trump doesn't deserve racism or gay person homophobia etc.

Trans rights are human rights, all humans, no matter who they are (and again she's an awful human being). If the ones who are deserve it are suffering like described, it means the good ones are suffering more and worse, you can't have one without the other.

Mind you, I dunno where the transphobia is in this threat:

 User banned (permanent): blatant antisemitism

The genocide deniers make me laugh there's just too much irrefutable proof put online of the many, many, many atrocities Israel do to Palestinians, especially at this point in time. Zios know, they will just deflect and act dumb trying they're hardest to show how THEY are the victims to the world. Let's not forget the Netenyahu paying 7000 shekels to goyims in the West to do social media PR for Israel is just laughable. Then there's AIPAC money and so much more behind the curtain deals Israel does. No one's falling for your Zionist tricks that shit don't work no more.

I see this this morning on gma. Great they call out the ree/always online types.

The thing I don't get with the support of the drag queens...they're mostly gay guys, dressing up like women, as opposed to trannnnies, 'being women' or watever. Why are they not hated?
