The localizers have struck again! After having absolutely BOMBED Lost Ark, Amazon Gaymes has decided to cover up the ladies and remove the Japanese-classic jiggle physics in another beloved and anticipated game.
It's not even a toggleable option because fuck you, single huwhite males!
The female body is only empowering when you're making e-thots filthy rich, peasants! (and they get a cut on it too, owning Twitch!)
Remember: they have virtually unlimited money so the ruining of games will continue until morale improves.

They have virtually unlimited fiat, which is decreasing in value.
IDK, I think Bezos is in the right club to be handling that just fine
Pick one
True, true, but I can think of a few reasons:
It’s not for us, though. The next generation of gamers are use to gatchas and micro-transaction hell that they can ignore it completely or engross themselves in Mom or Dad’s credit card. Look at Fortnight, Valorant, Counter Strike, or Genshin Impact.
At this point they're just publishing asian games to spite people.
Actually true, praxis is praxis no matter the source
Translation: Fuck the original vision, we are catering to the lunatics and the lunatics that will soon be making anything straight men enjoy straight up illegal.

Ty!
I was actually fine (for limited values of fine) with Lost Ark's very predatory gaming model, I knew it going in, and was willing to play with/around it to experience the game.
But before I paid any money, I looked at the game state, and saw that it was lessened, it was diminished, it was nerfed, from its origins.
If they were willing to do that for something as harmless as a neckline and a skirt length, then they definitely were going to massakre the plot/sidestories/graphics on more important things. Why would I invest in that?
Blue Protocol is removing entire character creation tabs, options within the tabs that managed to avoid being axed, and game engine elements.
They also added a lot of forced diversity
Man i had high hopes for this game. But fuck are those red flags for me. The amazkn deal was the axe for me.
