So, does this basically confirm the leaks?
If they were fake you think he'd say so. Now, sure, who knows what it's like in context, and this was definitely a coordinated attack on the game, but it does look like the images themselves were true after all. I said they were suspicious and likely fake, and I still think that was a reasonable position, but this statement makes me think they are real now.
It's not hard to say "those images are fake, someone is trying to stir up controversy and ruin my game."
Yes. Whenever someone pontificates rather than just answering the yes/no question, they are playing you. This just finalized my decision to pass on the game. I don't tolerate any DEI shit, even from "ourguys".
Especially when he's clearly not shy about voicing his position on it otherwise. Well, either that, or he's phenomenally retarded.
I would say it does, consider his very clear and concise stance on the first game in regards to it having niggers or not in it.
Sad, I was looking forward to the game, Stalker 2 was shit, and now guessing KCD 2 will be mediocre.
When those that seem willing to bet on the "losing side" turn turncoat for just a bit of shekels it does not inspire hope.
I don't know why anyone expected anything good to come out of the ukraine.
it confirms that he really doesn't want to deny the leaks explicitly. I'll wait and see, because the publicity means I won't have to actually buy the game to see how it turns out, but it's not looking good.
He seems to be arguing more context so who knows, the black guy in Eastern Europe in the middle ages seems to be true though if it's one guy and he AIN'T Essential he could end up like that feminist IN RDR2..
Gay relationship is harder to pin down as there were instances in the first game and they were villains and an exiled monk so not really pro gay there. This point it's wait and see as if this content can ALL be skipped, it's kinda a lame duck inclusion like in RDR2.
I don't agree. First, you already have plenty of review copies out in the wild. You'd think we'd have corroborating proof if the leaks were real.
Second, I don't see how he can address individual rumors like this. You already have multiple controversial leaks. If he addresses even a few, he gets forced into playing whack-a-mole with the rest, along with whatever else people want to concoct between now and release day. If they're truly fake, there's no reason to create that sort of bad publicity.
And if they're real, the only plausible reason we don't have more evidence yet is that they're behind an area of the game that's currently locked for review copies. In which case we should have an answer shortly after release, and there's no reason to stir the pot until then. Unless you preordered, it's not hard to wait and see, and be outraged/relieved in the near future.
