Is Billy D writing for them now? It's nowhere as bad as they try to rephrase it in Billy's typical very purple prose.
Also strange obsession with IdolMaster, an apparent soulless loliblob game series that I never even heard about and as such also never heard anyone bitching about. With Banco they often rather wail about the problematix of the likes of SoulCalibur.
Scarlet Nexus and Tales of Arise do seem unimpressive from promo materials alone.
I'm fine with skepticism, but IMO there is reason to be wary about Bamco. This may have legs.
I've played both, they're not woke.
They're not anti-woke either but when you're using psychic powers and magic it's not weird seeing women fight. Not like BFV or CoD
Scarlet Nexus is more bland than anything, I felt the staff were neutering themselves in terms of creativity.
Arise is pretty darn preachy (especially about colonialism). I felt a more left-wing Western audience was the target for Arise, which among other things is why I skipped it.
That's a pretty over simplification of Arise's story but whatever.
Slavery is, indeed, bad and the bad guys are actually bad.
That is not a "leftist" position.
