They need to take responsibility for the negativity they are putting out into the world.

Kim Kardashian-like games are putting more negativity in this world than Hatred. That was my point. But what do I know, I'm a hippie who doesn't buy nice new clothes every month. Also a pacifist who gets furious seeing video's capturing injustice, beating, animal cruelty, etc. Why? It is real. And if I came across that situation in real life. I'd try destroying people like that, making a exception to the pacifist rule.

But Hatred doesn't enrage me, because it is not real. It shouldn't enrage anyone who has some hope in humanity as you know it won't lead to everyone going apeshit, killing eachother.

No it won't make people go apeshit and kill each other.

But

1. When the wider public is worried about that anyway and a lot of people are fighting long and hard to change that opinion what's the point in risking their hard work?

2. It rewards killing innocent people, making light of something that's pretty horrendous with no reason / repercussions / explanations. Even in Carmageddon you could still complete a race by actually winning, not just running people down. And I'm sure your main targets were the other racers, who were out to kill you, hardly innocents.

3. This isn't a shoddy game like the columbine one, this had a certain degree of production value so will get noticed, meaning any negative impact it has on the gaming industry and culture as a whole will be more wide spread.

So capitalism makes light of killing innocent people daily so it's ok for this game to make light of it too?

Large groups of stupid people (your words not mine) who a lot of people have been painstakingly educating on how games are not murder simulators and that they can be deep, meaningful and diverse. So best we go throw this bombshell of a game in the mix?

Maybe make a game about the problems with capitalism and how it values human life? If that's something your passionate about. Something that could challenge how people think. Not this rubbish.

Ok, so capitalism is the cause of innocent people being killed. (Again, your words).

Hatred, looks as if it will be mostly making light if innocent people being killed (yours too).

This still makes Hatred a shitty idea...

But what about the part where it looks like a shitty twin stick shooter where the majority of the enemy AI doesn't attack you?

 

EDIT: While we may not be able to come together and agree about the merit of a genocide simulator, we should ALL be able to agree that gameplay looks a bit shit right?
