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".
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.
There is a clear reason for a sub-saharan to cross the desert and travel for probably years to get to fucking bohemia and that's because you bent the knee.
he's not going to come out and say 'yes I had to make huge concessions and do what the publisher told me to get the game published' right before it launches. of course he will say it's great and everything he wanted.
"Does my game about medieval Europe really have gay negro romance options? Well friend, you've got to buy it to find out! ;)"
This is very "israeli descended hebrew person" of him.
So, does this basically confirm the leaks?

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.

Mansa Musa went to Czechia?

I'm in the wait and see camp.
I never buy any game, whether it's from a company I like or not, until 90 days after release.
Just from a wallet standpoint, but also for many various reasons, it's just always better to wait and see.
it sounds like he's trying to imply the game is more on his current critics' side than they realize, but he's trying to be coy.
could be complete bullshit, of course, but that's the gist of what I get from this statement.
I read this as you can be a faggot but you'll be hated in game probably
