  • Gears of War 3 and Genocide
    culture, debate [http://howtonotsuckatgamedesign.com/?p=3377] , September 30, 2011 [http://howtonotsuckatgamedesign.com/?p=3377] by Anjin Anhut. Tweet 25 Like 57 4 Sharre 3 StumbleUpon This article is filed under game criticism and game semiotics. About Gears Of War 3 And Genocide: Epic Games delivers a finale filled with fascism, genocide and hate, and sells it as a victory story. But maybe that is exactly what the target audience needs right now. A serious view on Gears Of War’s mythology and its disturbing conclusion. And a try at making sense of it all. No cursing, no sarcasm, rhetorical questions or hyperbole. But some spoilers and strong words. This was a pretty hard article to write for me, because I have a hard time wrapping my head around the idea of somebody finding the way the trilogy ended appealing. To me it was just offensive and disturbing. The only way I see to possibly find any satisfaction from this ending is from an American perspective. A perspective I have no actual insight into. The mythology of Gears did put me as the player in a position I’m not at all comfortable with. I did my fair share of virtual kills and fatalities, accepted many stereotyping enemy clich‚àö¬©s as entertaining cannon fodder and allowed myself to even dwell in pretend misogyny. Sometimes without caring much and sometimes by being able to put aside the socially questionable or downright wrong implications of video game narrative. Gears of War 3 made that impossible for me. I was disturbed by the way the story ended and felt like I was playing a villain all the time but nobody told me.
