Obligatory since every time I see this reposted somewhere, someone will invariably bring up the reason for the image on the right.
Yes, that image is celebrating International Women's Day. No, there's a good chance that isn't the developers of GoY, though a portion are probably going to be involved.
The issue is that Sucker Punch felt the need to virtue signal on IWD. Would they do one on International Men's Day? Could they even point out what day that is?
The issue isn't the women per se, but it's the culture that felt the need to virtue signal. Maybe GoY will be fine. Maybe we'll all be proven wrong. But considering that Sucker Punch are also fine with taking part in a workshop that's exclusively for "girls and non-binary kids, ages 11 to 14", I think it's pretty clear that they're infested.
They’ve just shown their hand and delayed the game to 2026, which proves that they’re already well aware it’s going to be another flaming pile of woke garbage. They clearly don’t want to become the next Ubisoft, but regardless of how many things they change or how much wokeness they remove I’m not going to be supporting it. Don’t care if they put their samurai chick in a bikini and add a lightsaber and gratuitous bouncing titty shots while she rides her horse. I’m out no matter what they do now, fuck them all.
Like Ubisoft, they will bring in a team of “contractors” (men) to polish up this turd for the next 2 years and when it’s a hit, all credit will go to the creatures you see above in the second pic.
We need to just dig our heals in and be stubborn assholes about this. Remove her and give us a dude or we don’t buy it, simple. It really is that Joker meme about sending a message.
She’s not attractive enough for that.
I’m at a point now where I simply will not play any game with girl boss characters. If your game features a female character who behaves or speaks like an obvious cunt, I’m not buying it. Doesn’t matter how “good” it is. There are more than enough great games just in my current stead backlog to last a lifetime. Every game you play represents an opportunity cost. I’m not choosing “annoying bitch games” ever again.
Way ahead of you. If there is a hint of "modern audience" in it, I'm out. I have been that way for nearly a decade now. I hear Hellblade was great. I don't care, and never will. I don't buy anything with a female protagonist any more. Same goes for pox (PoCs) characters.
Just make an open world Soul Calibur.
It won't be fine, no maybe about it.
If you don't task people with making something good as the goal, the thing they make will never be good. Good cannot come about by accident.
Of course it won't be good. The point was that even if somehow against all odds they stumble into something good, the people behind it all are still very much pozzed and should be avoided on that basis alone.
