Revision as of 18:37, 14 May 2015
"Hatred" is an isometric-ish, gore-filled, edgy as fuck Elliot Rodger simulator that is essentially a carbon copy of Postal 1. It was made by a bunch of bald white fags who trolled the entire gaming media by using their pathetic attempts to somehow destroy the game by writing butthurt articles about it for free publicity and then caused so much drama that when SJWs had it removed from Steam Greenlight, Gayben himself returned it to Greenlight and apologized for the removal. While a few years ago this type of game would have only made Fox News rage, the timing for the announcement was perfect for generating as much lulz as possible and lead to the shedding of many tears on tumblr as well as the game going on to become the only game in history other than Manhunt 2 to get hit with an "Adult Only" rating.
Gameplay
You play as some pissed off batshit insane goth faggot who is going to cleanse the world of what he deems to be worthless humans. It's pretty much "Elliot Rodger: The Game". So, like any upstanding citizen, the player, referred to simply as "The Antagonist" (Online Elliot's username was "The Purifier"), goes out and starts killing as many people as possible and destroys everything in his sight. Some argue that the game is racist and sexist mainly because you play as a white guy, despite the fact you kill both men and women of all races equally. By some we mean people on Tumblr and other profoundly reliable news sources, who have it in for this game but miss the irony (or perhaps not) of assuming anyone who goes on a shooting spree is undoubtedly a white dude (it's true though). There are also kills that the player can perform which are so extremely detailed, they would've made Eric and Dylan cream themselves... and then shoot up their school. It feels like you're playing Pekka-Eric Auvinen's fantasy after playing too much God of War. It's all super edgy.

Removal/Return to Greenlight
Hatred was submitted to Steam's Greenlight service, where it attracted many delightful new fans who promptly reported it to Steam once, and then again when some GamerGate trolls decided to spread a rumor that the game will include NPCs that look like Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian. Not long thereafter, it was quickly removed, making Valve look like a bunch of faggots with this gay statement:
The only reason this happened however, is because Gabe took a trip the snack bar and did not come back for over 24 hours. When he returned to see the counter-spamming of emails by people who just wanted this game to succeed so that it would piss off SJW some more, he quickly had his company reinstate Hatred on Greenlight and sent this legendary message to the devs:
This act of justice made many gaming sites indescribably buttmad; however, since they love Valve as if it were their own fleshlights, they opted to slander and criticize Hatred instead. Gabe had indeed trolled the entire gaming community and got away with it, yet again.
Thanks to everyone voting for it out of spite, Hatred became the top voted game on the site.
The Developers are Literally Nazis and Trolled the Media
—Hatred's dev team |
When the game was first announced everyone assumed that it's either some sort of ironic artistic statement (meant to either criticize the violence in games or prove it isn't real or say something about society or mass shootings or whatever else self-appointed internet experts pulled out of their collective asses) or someone trying waaaay too hard to be edgy.
But everyone was wrong because the developers of "Hatred" are literally Neo-Nazi oops, they take issue with being called "Neo-Nazis" because to be a Nazi you have to be German and they're Romanians or something so that makes them "Neo-Fascists". Either way, they aren't trying to be edgy, this game is legit.
Furthermore, the entire thing was a giant publicity stunt and all the butthurt gaming news sites that wrote long-winded smear pieces about the game and its team, in an attempt to somehow hurt it, were actually giving them exactly what they want. Most notably Polygon and its editor Ben Kuchera, who has a long history of trying to bully people while drunk on the imaginary power of writing for a gaming news site, acted as the game's personal PR department with their slew of misguided hit pieces that only helped promote the game they thought they would destroy.
"Extra Credits" are literally retarded
You would think that, after all this, everyone in the "games media" would be smart enough never to give them attention again. But you would be wrong. One particularly retarded VG "criticism" show decided to chime in, just to tell everyone else not to chime in (long after everyone else had already stopped) like a trolled individual, posting on a troll thread, just to say he wasn't trolled. That show was "Extra Credits", who made this video:
In it, they talk about the difference between violence and sadism. They point out that violent games can be cathartic by helping people pathetically air out their impotent rage, while sadistic games will just make sadist more dangerous. This is, of course, not true. EC again made up their own facts without doing any research (a recurring problem with them, as you will see), which is why they don't know that any psychologist will tell you that "venting" is bad and creates rageaholics, while indulging in simulated sadism in or other forbidden acts helps these people stop themselves from doing it in real life. They ended by trying to deny that they are pro-censorship, attacking Valve in a sad attempt to get Gabe to overturn his decision, and saying that outlets shouldn't give this game a megaphone, which is ironic, both because they are the only ones still doing that, and because they are friends with Leigh "I am a megaphone" Alexander.
But, who are "Extra Credits"? They are a once respect web-show that began to quickly lose credibility after leaving The Escapist when they wouldn't let them steal their money. Their exploits also include making an episode about how we're about to run out of internet, taking $90,000 of extra money they got from a KickStarter for their artist's hand surgery and promising to create an indie game company, that money mysteriously disappearing, the company flopping despite their supposed "experience" in the field that's the whole basis of the show's supposed credibility, constantly plugging "Gone Home" and making an episode about gaming addiction while desperately trying to defend their precious video games by re-branding it as gaming "compulsion" (by their definition, gambling addiction is also just a "compulsion"), all the while their speaker, literally in tears, tells about his crippling addiction to video games, as he tries not to stumble over his own words and break the narrative by mistakenly using the word "addiction".
But their coup de grace came when they decided to take a stand against GamerGate. Why? Because they're close friends with Leigh Alexander as well as Anita Sarkeesian (very close according to rumors... this also explains the "Hatred" video which came later)). How did they decide to do this? By making videos that support SJW opinions while pretending to be neutral, using them to plug people like Tim Schafer and sites like Kotaku, and by attacking TotalBiscuit while he was in the hospital going through chemo.
Yep. The EC guys decided to go whale hunting and randomly accused TB of being the leader of GamerGate and taking bribes that never happened based on a rumor they themselves made up, believing he is too weak to respond. When TB told them to fuck off, they attacked him on twitter and browbeat him about not being an SJW and hurting women by refusing to be corrupt. At that point, many people just unsubscribed and began bringing up all the shit EC did that they though people forgot about while mocking their "source" for the TB accusation by creating the hashtag #IHearWhatIHear.
