Sweet Baby Inc. Doesn’t Do What Some Gamers Think It Does

people unironically calling things woke arent exactly the brightest inviduals

rather see some more neutral reporting and investigation on what this company actually does, seems like pointless outrage right now

Motherfuckers need real struggle in their lives if this is the shit they're wasting their time on. Art will be diverse, always has been. Get the fuck over yourself and move on to something that caters to whatever bullshit narrative you need to wake up everyday and be an ignorant piece of shit. I mean, the Bible is a work of fiction that's been whitewashed with a cracker ass jesus, how about we start there?

Apologies for the rant, I usually have this type of nonsense filtered outta my feed.

Anyone else sometimes get sideways glances from people when they tell others that video games are a big hobby you enjoy? Yeah, dumbass shit like this whole saga is why.

It doesn't matter. These angry idiots have a narrative, and no amount of polite talking is going to convince them they were assholes.

Ignoring the controversy for a second, I do think your writing is going to be shit if you outsource it, it just screams "I don't give a fuck, let some intern I can't even supervise do it". So while this company isn't egregious per se, the fact it exists and there's a demand for it spells a bigger issue with the industry.

In this thread:

"How dare they ask the company what it does. The headline must be written first because it's what I read first."

"If we assume the problem doesn't exist, then why is there a solution?"

"Artists seeking consultation sounds like censorship. Especially if they recommend it to other artists!"

"The only reason you'd try to avoid offending people is so you can have sex at them."

Yeah can't imagine why these companies have people check their work now.

I've wondered what the term was for someone who acts like an incel, but might have had sex at one point or another. I guess it's "anti-woke", or whatever they're calling themselves now.

I spoke with several employees of Sweet Baby Inc. to learn what the company actually does and how the misunderstanding of its role in the industry highlights a far broader problem.

You don't know what Sweet Baby Inc. does, but you assume the people complaining about SBI must be incorrect? Do journalists in any other sector of the market fall all over themselves rushing to defend companies like they do in game development?

If the art was already written with diverse characters like they were before companys like this existed then why do you have to hire a firm to make it diverse. A piece of art should not have another company come in and make "suggestions" on things to change to fit inside of a narrative.

upper echelon did a good piece on this

Edit: noticing a few down votes, if clicking on the video and seeing "woke" as the video image is off putting then please notice its in quotations.

As for the content, well informed about the industry and how esg rating system has lead to check boxing. The video is not saying to avoid inclusivity in vedeo games it is however saying that company's are riding on inclusivity to make money and they're doing so in a lazy way that doesnt seem to help the cause.

It's still a safer bet to avoid whatever they consult on, they've an eye for trash writing and they thrive on "fixing" that. And companies that hire them are just out there to make a quick buck rather than creating a good story, experience or game.

its a good scam create problem that you are the solution to and you never have to face the consequences of what you do because you never make your own games you always work on other peoples games as consulted so that it can never be traced back to you unless you make it public and publish it on your own sweet baby site as promotion to do it again.

They literally threaten and extort companies into paying them. That's just from their own employees tweets.

I'm honestly surprised that the government hasn't noticed their extortion racket.
