It's not only Stellar Blade, games like Marvel Rivals, Space Marines 2 or The First Descendant are doing great which use "stereotypical" males/females, This year tons of pro woke games like DA Veilguard, Banishers, SW Outlaws, Life is Strange DE, concord, dustborn, etc did really badly in terms of sales, same with movies like Joker 2, war of rohirrim, borderlands, almost every disney movie did badly, or shows like she-hulk, the acolyte, etc. That's why Walmart, Coors, Ford, ...
That would be great, also now that it looks we're near the post-woke era, it could be a good time for a Dead or Alive return too, Stellar Blade proves things are quite different now compared to 2019 when DOA6 was released.
A new graphic card, a kidney, hmmm decisions...
Now i understand why oil is so expensive, she took it all for herself.
AI is just a tool, it's ok as long as it's used to enhance a experience and improve the creative process, but it won't be creating AAA games anytime soon.
go woke...
Veilguard finally did it, they're below 10k players daily 2 months after release, amazing. You can grab it at 35% on Steam right now, but i think it should be 50% or more in a few months at this rate if you can wait for a bit, if you actually want to buy it, which doesn't seem the case for most people.
Tbh with Batman Arkham VR, Alien: Rogue Incursion, Behemoth and Metro Awakening VR, this end of the year has been more interesting for VR than for flatscreen.
Old fans will love it, and for everyone else, it's a cool Samurai action adventure game, they'll love it regardless.
Of course the best game Ubisoft has made in years got it's team fired because that's Ubisoft now, if you want a mindblowing metroidvania look no further, some of the jumping puzzles are insane, graphics look meh but overall highly recommended.
It's an issue only related to the west, so it's pretty clear it's some kind of censorship that the devs didn't agree with, anything else would stop the release everywhere else, Nintendo can't do anything right lately.
*throwing money to the screen, nothing happens.*
wow, i checked the trailer on playstation youtube channel, it has 48k likes and 75k dislikes (there's a plugin to see the dislikes), i expected it to be controversial but not that much.
Exactly, there's nor hair at all in the head, and no hair in the sink, you cut your hair when it has grown even a bit, but here, there's absolutely nothing to cut, to the point that there's no single hair anywhere after she cuts it.
My question is, why is she shaving her head since she's bald as pool ball from the beginning and there's not a single hair in the sink?
I don't agree with you, it's not an overreaction to compensate extremely attractive designs from before, it's modern feminism declaring beauty as a form of patriarchy oppression, and western developers accepting that paradigm and including it in their games. Just look at many other non-western countries were modern feminism isn't so dominant, from Japan, to China, Korea or Russia, they have no issues portraying beautiful females at all in their games. For example, no videogame...
There's retro cool but this is retro stupid. A CD player in a spaceship? It's stupid. In Guardians of the Galaxy the walkman makes some logic because he's a kid with the music he loves in that tape when he was taken to space and still uses it, but having a CD player installed in a space ship doesn't make any sense, it's an arcaic tech that adds nothing and takes a ton of space, it looks like trying to be retro for retro's sake, instead of making any sense.
No Geralt no buy sorry, you can make Ciri all the angry, dark and rough talking you want, it's not going to be the same. Half of the fun of The Witcher games is having Geralt being a cynic, a hero due to circumstances or bad luck, a man that gets mixed in political affairs that he doesn't care about, hating magic but being surrounded by mages, it's dealing with a character mixed in love affairs but can't have children, saving people even though he's basically a mercenary, ...
That can be the only reason, Marvel Avengers failed miserably, just like Suicide Squad or Gotham Knights on DC side, so having Marvel characters is far from being enough for a game to succeed nowadays.
If they're going to waste money why not purchase a golden lamborghini or stuff like that instead, it would be much cooler.
