Shareholder shooters sounds really good.

they're called DOA. i abhor retards coining new phrases just because they can't learn existing ones.

I was literally going to suggest flop slop

that's the one

Flop slop
This name just came to me

Slop. We need to start using this word again ladies and gentlemen, and we will, we're going to call bad, poorly managed, greedy things slop again.
My issue is that the Wikipedia article for "slop" refers specifically to AI generated content. I feel like this was done on purpose to draw attention away from low quality products in general.
Slop referred to shitty food long before we were born, then we made goyslop referring to food still, then shortened it back to slop for basically anything that sucks.
But for some reason, the normies only use it for AI. AI slop was its own category, the word slop itself shouldn't refer to only AI.
I think it's a cheap attempt to redirect attention away from jews and indians lowering the quality of everything.
These are all slop, AI or not.

they still have more coming out like Fairgame$

There is no fucking way it's coming out.
Like a rat fleeing a sinking ship, Jade Raymond has left Haven.

I expect it to be quietly cancelled. There won't even be an announcement, they'll simply delete the trailers, blog posts and twitter account.

you might deny it's existence and deny reality.
why do sony's new games have this same aesthetic?

Concord 2: Corpo Shooter Evolved

Concord 2: Corpo Shooter Evolved Boogaloo

I've used that a few times when Concord came out, I think it's best.
It has to be used sparingly though, the game has to actually flop miserably like Concord. Though even if it doesn't release like Hyenas, that doesn't excuse it from being flop slop either just because the publisher knew it would flop, it's still flop slop.

ESGpunk or Finkcore are my top 2

at least they had 1 thing going for hyenas, it was used as a tax write off

We need to go back to goyslop as a discussion about the terrible food quality in the modern age, spamming “slop” was a successful subversion of that discussion

are you retarded? where's the "kill the rich" in concord or marathon or hyenas?
those are marvel-core, inorganic-punk and slum-pack

Flop era shooters.

hyenas

concord

a mega corporation holds all the keys to space travel, in the game you play as pirates who steal these keys.

marathon

i don't know the story

the story in hyenas was about stealing funko pops from rich people

concord

they just copied guardians of the galaxy and didn't think about it

Makes me think I'm of plastic shit like this. Quarter machine cheap junk.
The puzzle ball was kind of cool tho. This game looks like complete trash

They tried to copy the feel of guargians of the galaxy and massively failed at copying the characters. They did not copy the setting or story.

it looks cool to me. kind of ridiculous to compare it to concord.
on the other hand I don't play games like that.

it looks cool to me.

Thank god, you are not the lord emperor of good tastes.

Overbudgted FPS slop that tries to chase the big audience and fails at the startline is not new.
"We want the Call of Duty audience." was in 2012.
Fucking newfags think they are special for being retarded.

Corposhooters

goyslop really does convey what this stuff is...

Marathon isn't dei you fucking moron. Its shit because it's GAAS slop and if you retards keep mislabelling the issue to force a narrative you will render the term as meaningless as racist or sexist has become.

Marathon isn't dei you fucking moron.

It absolutely is. Good goys like yourself have lost the plot so hard that you think a game filled with ugly characters isn't DEI because they aren't all trannies or something.

You can't close Pandora's box.

Flopslop

Trend chasing soulless slop

It's not outwardly pozzed but it's made by DEI faggots and that has an impact on how the game turns out because some of the things that plagues companies who go all out on DEI is toxic positivity, tunnel vision, obsession with making things "safe" and inclusive, Marathon doesn't have proximity chat explicitly because players might say no-no words. DEI is characterized by a safe, sanitized, boring product with all the edges sanded off and all soul sucked out. You are correct that it's retarded to call everything "woke" or "DEI" but there is nothing wrong with calling the studio behind pozzed, and connecting it to the game's quality.

How can a plane be woke? Well it can't that's retarded, but the plane falling off the sky can be the result of the company manufacturing and doing maintenance on it being filled with incompetent DEI hires prioritizing diversity seminars and pride parades over employee formation and safety check-ups, driving away the competent senior employees (aka white & asian males) to replace them with jeets and women. That's what DEI is, it's not just gays on screen kissing, it's a deep rooted disease that leads to disasters like Marathon and Concord.

It doesn't have proximity chat because then they can't fill your games with bots without you noticing. All this modern MP slop is filled with bots.

AAA soulless

No, you and the army of retarded asmongold dick suckers who let e-celebs think for you have conflated anything ugly with DEI. Just say you don't like the art or think it's ugly, it's not tranny or gay or woke just because there isn't a woman with fat tits in it. You're now just as ridiculous as the woke left who calls killing aliens fascist and racist

uh oh troonie meltie

market gets flooded with a bunch of no effort copy pasted games because shareholders want a slice of the biggest pie leading to consumer distrust in the market as a whole wich results in massive layoffs and companies closing down

where have i heard this before

You can screech and cry as much as you like about how DEI is only the things you don't like, but ugly characters are a part of the exact same philosophy. Designers make a character ugly for the same reason they make them gay trannies, a hatred of basic appeal and the self-hating leftist mindset.

Only DEI hires can argue for making characters ugly. Nobody with a brain would ever consider making the things you expect your audience to like both utterly uninteresting and disgusting.

Shareholder slop
Interactive Investment

The designs in these games are out of touch shareholders ideas of punk

Yeah we agree but check the thread, it's full of retards who think the game itself is woke despite it being full of female characters that are conventionally attractive, they just don't like the fashion sense. I'm not going to argue over bungies status as woke because they are an American AAA studio in 2025 but it's also kind of hysterical to just assume products are being directed by woke DEI hires when there isn't any evidence in the game beyond incompetence.

Concord I get, only a woke moron would put pronouns in their game, only a woke idiot would think Baz is a cool character design, all the "ugly" shit in marathon is loved by many normal artists, it's just not appealing to a mass market.

despite it being full of female characters that are conventionally attractive,

They aren't. You're a tranny.

I don't think they are ugly so what now? The women in all their trailers are hyper attractive models. The game itself looks like dog shit out of incompetence, the art direction comes from nerds who spent their entire life jerking off to motoko kusanagi. This doesn't suddenly mean I simultaneously like the character design in veilguard or concord.

despite it being full of female characters that are conventionally attractive

Back in the day we called it shovelware

despite it being full of female characters that are conventionally attractive

lol

shovelware refers to low budget games shoveled out quickly
these games have 500 million dollar budgets with over 1000 devs working on them for 8+ years

Corp Slop. They usually are games made after successful games in a genre and from 'respected' developers

I think it's hilarious you're trying to claim artists like mielgo are pushing ugly female characters, the guy is a self confessed coomer who is obsessed with attractive women, the art director chose to work with him because he also likes that shit.

Investocore.

you are retarded and how no idea how game development works

Plagiarism-core is the only good one so far here.

Everyone uses slop or some variation of that word. It removes meaning and reduces the impact. Plagiarism core just fits, it fills the mind with images of talentless plebs wringing and sweating over how to copy a game enough to have success without being accused of being creatively bankrupt.

what should games like these be called

Disposable.

I don't think they are ugly so what now?

We ignore your opinion, because it's clearly "bad faith".

They're ugly. They don't look a thing like Motoko, you couldn't make it more obvious that you've never even heard of GitS, which is chock full of unabashed sexualisation written by a great pervert.

This guy makes nothing attractive. This is the fundamental issue with you, you're a tranny and you think you can just screech at people and they'll roll over and accept your insistence that the sky is green.

I guess you're correct, we haven't really seen anything screaming woke about this game other than the proximity chat thing and designs that may or may not be interpreted as DEI depending how you look at it. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt on that one. Regardless, everything surrounding the studio, Sony, the blatant incompetence, being completely out of touch, gives people a reasonable reason to suspect DEI is behind.

Let's make the word smaller. Poach-core,when a game is clearly using elements that are poached from another in a lazy attempt to get its success

Flopslop

No, but they make the shareholders shoot themselves

trannypunk

I really don't remember Marathon having this art style or tone. It doesn't even make sense. This is like coming back with Myth but it's a fighting game with Tekken 8 inspired mechanics. Like why even use the name if anyone that recognizes it goes "Wait it's supposed to by THAT Marathon?"

Did Bungie have a Bioware moment were like 99% of the original devs have been replaced/retired?

The issue here is you just have shit, basic bitch taste and anything that doesn't confirm to your McDonald's palette gets labeled woke, dei, tranny. Meanwhile you're jerking off to the laziest gatcha and Korean coomer slop.

It never did until the art team saw neo-vectorheart from an artist named antireal

You seem to be very lost and very confused right now.

albertomielgo.com/the-witness/nr1wwuta5umoihmuonjxbzllbrivq0

Do you think this is attractive? Because it isn't. Yes, Mielgo has painted a lot of naked women. But he's never made anything ATTRACTIVE. I'm sorry you don't understand the difference between performative nudity and an actual appreciation of the female form.

There no uguuu Moe and fat weeb tits! it's UGLY

Gwen Stacy from the spider verse films is his design

What's really fucking sad is you probably thought you were making a point with that. Get some help, man.

hroned host is literally a drag queen

Boardroom-core

Flopslop isn't bad. I'm fine with that

these games aren't rebelling against anything

financial horror

They're rebelling against gamers in search of "the modern audience"

I call it shit

But people have been calling it ESGcore/finkcore for a good 10 years now. Since you were a kid, basically.

I think "subversive" is more appropriate.

Corporate Slop

WE HAVE A WINNER

Corpopunk is already busy, it's the purple-pink vomit like Redfall and latest NFS and Saints Row and Watch Dogs. Investorpunk sounds nice.

"Punk" lost all its meaning long ago.

Picrel is corpopunk.

Fuck you. You're not my little bird.

No it wasn't you retard

Hyenas was said to have been Sega's highest-budget game ever, exceeding the USD $70 million spent on Shenmue in 1999. Sega called it one of its "Super Games", ambitious titles it hoped would recoup their investment.[1]

Acshually it wasn't "billion(s)", so it's perfectly okay for it to flop.

Based Sega for taking Hyenas out back and put a bullet in its head before it saw the light of day and then bitch slapping Sega Europe into making another alien Isolation like they should have been doing.

Has Sega really never spent more than $70 million on a game? That's like indie tier budgeting today.

Corposlop

2005: bloom and brown

2025: purple and browns

my thoughts exactly

Wasn't the term "goyslop" literally coined to describe this exact thing?

nu-GoW can be considered as goyslop but it isn't exactly a flop is it

trendslop

It's just insane that this game has been like 6 years in development and was completely rebooted at least once where the current version is now an early access game with less than 2 years in development and all of that was because some big names at Bungie played a bunch of Tarkov and refused to listen to the idea that this game might not work

it was used as a tax write off

This is the last measure step.

Bungie hasn't been good in almost 15 years. It's not surprising.

GAASHART

Hyenas was $800m.
The next most expensive game, Sonic Frontiers, cost just $120m to develop.

>Hyenas was $800m.

I doubt it, 100-150m is closer to the actual number
they budgeted 1b to their super game franchise idea
hyenas was just 1 part of that

slop or multislop

I had never stopped using "slop" to describe slop, and I don't care what wikipedia defined slop as.

This is the best one so far

Goyslop was meant to describe shitty food with unhealthy ingredients.

Fake games you would see in a movie core

It's GAASlop, anon.

It's been GAASlop since Anon Babble was laughing at the first highest profile failure in the (new) genre, which I think was Lawbreakers.

Other often forgotten examples include:

Anthem

Marvel's Avengers

Battleborn

Redfall

(arguably) Evolution (or whatever it was called) from Turtle Rock, since it was MTX'd out the ying yang

It's GAASlop.

ACKs

Failslop.

At what point will investors be dragged out of their mcmansions and burned alive on a pile of tires? I'm so fatigued from this modern dystopic hell being bombarded with soulless, godless, demoralizing slop. I just want to play video games made with passion and fun not faggot shit laced with ugliness and moral grandstanding.

In these cases they go against the norm of making money.

It's honestly more impressive when a AAA game *doesn't* reboot at this point. Failguard rebooted at least 3 times.

I like the oxymoron of "Corpopunk". Straight outta 1984.

so many companies are going to die because 9 years ago their unqualified management played Tarkov and thought this was the future

Fairgame

Ahh, Suicide Squad! That was the other high profile failure I forgot.

Fairgame$

Isn't out yet, but now that Jade 'I'll suck your dick for a CEO job' Raymond just 'left,' it might be getting Hyenas'd.

TLOU Online

Remains to be seen if it was GAASlop. Ironically, it was probably just something like Division 2 (but more pvp focused) and less MTX fuckfest.

The shitty Saints Row game wasn't a GAAS title, it was just a woke mess of a singleplayer game.

Concord

Marathon aka Concord 2

Fairgame aka Concord 3

You want my Concord 4 prediction? That Wolverine game Sony is working on. Anytime it's mentioned nothing but bad things come and are revealed. There is also a woke Blade game set in France that I bet is going to be silently cancelled

console games

I think the key difference is that Call of Duty had an audience, and the problem was changing games with a pre-existing audience to try to appeal to CoD bros and invariably failing.

All these games are targeting an audience that doesn't exist. It'd be different if there was a successful example of this art style they're trying to emulate, but not a single game that looks like this has scored above "mild success".

Why did a sports car company change all their branding to look like they sell hair crimpers to 15 year old girls?

Boeing isn't failing because of DEI, Boeing is failing because McDonnel-Douglas fired all the upper management that cared about engineering and farmed out safety inspections to low bid indian vendor companies.

Anyone who has worked for an Indian company can tell you they're much more racist and sexist than any white company.

Finkpunk
Esgcore

Anon Babble, a board of call of duty players, pretending they are too good for more fps slop

Because it is "punk" for the corporate world. Blatantly ignore shareholders, implement completely awful ideas nobody likes, push out a product that no one buys or wants. It's doing the opposite of what a corporation normally desires, thus it is punk.

which exec at sony decided to spent billions making like 4 extraction shooters when people dont even like the genre

Egregious Gay Shit

Investorslop

I am too good for cringe fugly trannycore slop yes.

This is good but this is just flop in a fancy name.

All concordlikes need their own bazz.

That's setting the bar insanely high. The closest I can think of is the drag queen in Hyenas, and even he doesn't have half of Bazz's power.

Slopcore

Just because you play slop doesn't mean you should want your slop to become sloppier
