That really only applies to England and Wales though as the Conservative party are hated by everyone here in Scotland and only the SNP and Labour get votes.
Looking at the stats then they are about on par with labour on votes, and hold several more seats than them at present. Historically they had not done so well and some might have written off the last result as a protest against the SNP for hosing things up hard (that or that video...) but to dismiss them in such a fashion seems odd.
Because it was a one off protest vote against the SNP. The tory Party now have zero chance here as Boris is despised in Scotland even more than Trump is.
Agree completelyI think its the exact opposite imo, it seems alot of devs are liberal or at least seems that way because they are the most vocal ones, get covered by liberal "gaming" news sites like kotaku and polygon.
Gamers themselves however don't really share those views, at least the vast majority of them, they dont want politics shoved down their throats especially when they just want to play an enjoy games, they don't give af about the diversity of the game, how many characters are minorities, if the devs are people of color, ect.
A good example of this was when the dev of Firewatch attacked pewdiepie, sent copyright claims against all his videos which were there a year already, his game was promptly review bombed on steam. https://www.pcgamer.com/firewatch-is-getting-review-bombed-on-steam/
BF5 flop, the sjw devs just woudnt stop, they made a main character a female with one arm, a series which used to pride its self on historical accuracy decided to provide an alternative version of history, of course the far left gaming journalism sites all loved this and covered it to no end about diversity, but preorders and actual sales told a different story, it seems the people who would actually buy and play the game took the devs words to heart:
"Accept It or Don’t Buy the Game" -EA
They even decided to try and troll people with quotes at their launch event
Doom Enteral seemed to be going in the opposite direction and attacking sjw's https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2018/...-calling-it-gross-and-anti-immigration/66299/
Just keep politics out of games, it doesnt belong, your main audience doesnt want it, it's just grandstanding and virtue signaling.
Your post suggests that simply including characters who are people of color is "putting politics into games." There's nothing wrong with developers presenting a realistic representation of society, it can't be helped if conservatives are triggered by the very existence of different ethnicities or sexual orientations.
Representation is a serious political and cultural issue, hence taking a position on it is an inherently political action. Even if a developer wasn't trying to take a position on the issue, it might still be viewed that way due to incorrectly assumed motives. If I made a simulation game and had black characters get arrested for committing crimes more often than other characters, people might assume I'm racist and trying to push an agenda even if I were genuinely trying to model reality.
If it's portrayed as satire or a commentary on society, I don't see any issue with that. GTA V already does something similar with how police treat you as Franklin vs how they treat you when you're playing one of the other two characters.
