>>741272435If anything she looks fucking amazing for a woman in her forties in her era.
>>741272435I dont want to play as a woman at all
>>741272551She's supposed to be a Nordic Goddess, not a cellulite-ridden 45 y/o roastie
Why are woke devs so hellbent on the idea that no fictional woman ever uses makeup? Also we know for a fact that Norsewomen and Norsemen both used cosmetics and that viking culture did value good grooming and attractive appearances.
>>741272435it is all doompostingunironically, a new hitler should just round up every doomposter and make them work to death in concentration campssociety would be better for it
>>741272505She looks like a child.
>>741272639OUT OF 10!!!
>>7412726391. She doesn't.2. Children aren't allowed in video games?
>>741272435>no make up
>>741272639as always, its okay when nintendo does it
>>741272435Why Laufey needs to jsut be "a woman in her 40s" in a series where the MC has always been depicted as a huge bulky muscular 40-yo man?
>>741272781Because feminists in creative control really believe that sexualizing fictional female characters increases rape of real women in real life.
Yeah, she does indeed look likena wrinkly post-wall bitch. Your point, ma'am?
>>741272781hey, cool it with the anti-semitism
she's a really good cook
>>741272435>wasting your limited life span pretending to be a woke retardIs your life really that empty and worthless this is how you have to scrape dopamine hits?
>>741272608Classical Gods were never meant to be inhumanly beautiful outside of the actual representatives of such values, i.e. Aphrodite. And even she probably presented herself differently to every person that witnessed her.

>>741272435Oh boy, I can't wait to play as a [Normal woman in her 40s with no make up on] in a series where I previously played an angry badass dude.I as a male gamer just LOVE to pretend I'm a [Normal woman in her 40s with no make up on] in every game I play. What an appropriate choice!
>>741272920>Classical Gods were never meant to be inhumanly beautiful "Um gods were NOT supposed to he perfect you stupid chud!!!" is such pathetic cope. Also Aphrodite was a literal goddess of beauty, seduction, romance and sex. You can't escape it.
>>741272551>Let's just apply our standards for how people used to look based on old people and old actors in the mid-20th century who were fucked up with war, stress, pollution and drugs.>Yes, they still have to have perfect straight, white teeth and mostly unblemished skin, preserving the "no makeup" meme is important, please ignore that the "natural, no makeup" look still uses a lot of makeup>No they can't look younger due to not going through modern early puberty induced by different diets and hormones in food, that would be pedophilia
>>741272435>normal why the fuck would i want to play as a normal person in my fucking video game>b-b-but muh realismif i wanted realism i'd go outside retard
>>741272920JESUS WEPT
>>741272435Why makes you think for a second anyine wants to play or pay for a game with a "normal woman in her 40s with no make up" especially in a post Concord world?

>>741273301You are an economic terrorist you know that, right?
>>741272435Because that shit doesn't belong to the screen.Design her like Classic Lara Croft, don't call the game like any existing IP, and cater to normal people next time

>>741272781>laufey>just a woman in her 40sNot even movie stars age gracefully in their 40s.Any woman in her 40s would want to have Laufey's body.Also, do you honestly think Kratos is a female sexual fantasy? I'm sure you don't think that, so why should Laufey be a male sexual fantasy?
>>741272625I don't like women in video games. Or movies or any other media. And the point in which they started having prominent leading roles, such as in Ridely Scott's Alien, is the point in which culture started to decline. They all need to be thrown into a box. Men should engage in loving sexual coupling with other men, and only use plastic baster insemination on women for reproduction from now on. Maybe taking some of their kidneys if it can keep a good man alive.

>>741272435I don't care about the hag, I care about the rest looking like shit and you retards point to a fucking hag why I should buy the game. Of you have nothing to offer but the hag make it at least wankable. You really think you can sell a quip cube and an alien plushie in 2026 with a 40 year old woman. Not even a stellar blade bimbo wouöd be able to do that. Fucking game would need to give me an ai prompt to make my dream fetish and a rape button to make me suffer through that stale disney shit.

>>741273684the only thing projecting is your colon
>>741272435Because game is le bad if it doesn't have anime waifu.Chuds don't play games for the gameplay, story, level design and mechanics. Only to larp as the bf of waifus.A game could have 10/10 gameplay, story, level design, mechanics but with a 4/10 woman and /v/ would shit on it.
>>741273738you lost LMAO
>>741273730Damn, you should get that checked out.
>>741272435I reject the notion that games should be for everybody. I want games to be for ME.And games can be for you too, whoever you are.How do we achieve this? Multiple games, smaller games with targeted audience demographics.A game that tries to appeal to men & women & adults & children & minorities & lgbt & straights & EVERYONE is just going to be fucking slop, that's just so fucking obvious I don't know how anyone could argue otherwise.
>>741273750It's nu GoW. None of those games have gameplay or story that are better than 5/10
>>741273750If that's the case, why do they put a hag in the game instead of an anime waifu? Don't they wanna sell the game?
>>741272435>normal woman in her 40s>model is 30
>>741272505No thanks asians are ugly flatfaced insects
>>741273791kek it's your entire history on a guesshow's that feel retard
>>741273374Worshipping animals is mostly a brown people thing.
If you think there's anything desirable about a woman in her 40's you're actually a homosexual retard.
>>741272505Too young and the face is androgynousCan we have a normal hot woman?
>>741273415>do you honestly think Kratos is a female sexual fantasy?No one cares what women think of in games, they're always the tiny minority. Men look at Kratos and think "holy shit I wanna be like him he's badass". People look at Fey and think "why is my mom on screen". Either make a hot girl or don't, the vast majority of your audience are guys that want action and eye candy. It'll still sell copies because Snoygroids are desperate for games, but I guarantee you their good will with their audience has been burnt already.
>>741273806I've not played Stella Blade but it looks like a pretty shit game and people mostly play it for the waifu. Why would you play a game just based on how attractive the female character is?If a game is good but has a less attractive woman then I'd rather play that than a game that isn't as good but has a more attractive woman.
>>741272435Why are YOU like this?
>>741272939>make this place (4chan, not just /v/) horrible for actuale debate./pol/tards already did that
>>741273415Kratos is kinda hot tho
>>741273960That's not what I asked. I asked why put a hag in the game if it doesn't sell.
>>741273919watching you trannies try to pretend to like heterosexuality is more hilarious than the last time you looked in the mirror and started shrieking so much that you made your mom call the cops
>>741272435Right, the dream of every guy playing GOD OF WAR is playing as a 5/10 soccer mom with no make up on.
We?
>>741273919i had sex with a 44 year old grandmother once
>>741273960There is a 99.999% chance that the Stellar Blade gameplay is going to be vastly superior to this game. You're a gutter retard who is afraid to try a literally free demo because the protag is too hot.
>>741273750If you can't even have hot beautiful characters you aren't up to the task and I don't care about whatever you are trying to makeDeal with it
>>741273971They're in a cult, and the cult agreed this game good other game problematic

>>741274103GOT NAMED LOL
>>741274006What the fuck kind of backwards psyop is this? You're trying to convince me that the person arguing "old women aren't as sexually attractive as young women" is a tranny pretending to be normal? Go jump in front of a bus you fucking kike shill nobody wants to play your shit ass brainwashing feminism dogshit
The strong and beautiful shieldmaiden/valkyrie is a long standing trope and the fact that they opted for some twig-arm wrinkle-faced hag as the protagonist instead tells me all I need to know about that garbage game. Sony games truly are made for single moms (they dont buy them).
>>741274139it didn't work lmao but thanks for naming yourself
>>741272435the hagmaxing epidemic must be stopped
>>741272435>normal woman in her 40s with no makeup onDoesn’t exist
>weanother troon psyopfuck off and kill yourself
>>741274076I don't care whether the woman is pretty or not. My point is that people are bad in their opinion of a video game on the attractiveness of the woman instead of the gameplay, story, level design and everything else that makes a good game.
>>741274164>now anyone who doesn't like old women the kike shills are pushing on us is actually a kike shill himselfDude just get the fuck out of here and take your own life seriously.
I have anti woke fatigue.
>>741274273The lack of self-awareness is astounding
>>741272435WE'RE NOT GONNA PLAY ITNO WE'RE NOT GONNA PLAY IT
They are ass raping the story of 2018 and a bit of ragnarok by making an entire game of this woman and a random cube. Her sacrifice and well laid plans made her a cool mysterious character in 2018. But now? None of that matters.I would have loved a freya (as a valkyrie) game.
>>741274194>struck a nervekek
>>741272435It's the Senua problemSenua would be a fine looking girl if she didn't spend 80% of her time on screen going "GRRRR WOOF WOOF WOOF BARK BARK BARK AAAIEEEE GRRR" it's a combination of mannerisms and looks. If your pic related was just a 40 year old woman doing 40 year old woman things, then nobody would complain. the grotesqueness comes from a combination of factors.Notice nobody complains about women that are even dressed and act like men because they still have the mannerisms of women. You can't escape those mannerisms and still expect people to not find it uncanny.
>>741274357Yikes
It really highlights how gamers have low standards for storytelling when they are angry about how ugly she looks and not about the fact that her character is a badass playable character murdering legions of enemies in the first place
>>741274273>I don't care whether the woman is pretty or not.That's a YOU problem, you politicized eunuch.If you can't even make your characters attractive, you have nothing worthwhile to say
>>741274338>I have firefighter fatigue, said the firestarter

>>741274338I have anti anti woke fatigue
>>741272435>Why are we like this?There's no market for hags.Men don't want to play as hags.Gays don't want to play as hags.Troons don't want to play as hags.Young women don't want to play as hags.Hags don't want to play as hags.No one wants this. The people making it don't even want it; but they have to pretend they do so no one accuses them of being a bad person for wanting a younger prettier protagonist. The 4/10s women on the dev team can't stand women prettier than them so they all demand they widen the model's jaw, add wrinkles and waste time modeling little hairs on her chin. The end result is a model no one really likes even the feminists who demanded it; but that everyone is ideologically obligated to pretend they like.
>>741274431>Xir having a meltdownkek

>>741274474I don't think that anon started the woke moment
>>741274386>character assassination is fine, actually
>>741273428This is just being a faggot. Women in gaming are great, especially if they're hot and I can fap to them. No one complained about hot women in gaming until /gay/ came along and demand everyone become as gay as you are.
ok so I guess we'll all sell our ps5's
>>741272435Why is some ugly old woman a main character of Kratos' series?
>>741274439>If you can't even make your characters attractive, you have nothing worthwhile to saySo do you actually play video games? Why does the attractiveness of the character matter so much compared to the things that actually make a game good like the gameplay and story?I'd rather play a game with a 6/10 woman with 10/10 game play and story compared to a game with a 10/10 woman but 6/10 gameplay and story.
>>741274474No I just want to talk about videogames without you /pol/ tourists shitting up the board
are you guys really this autistically obsessed with culture war and politics or is it just an opportunity to argue with other anons because you're bored
>>741274574>STOP NOTICING WHAT WE ARE DOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>741272792mucho texto
>>741274513All wrong. Pic related disproves literally all of that. Pic related is the only thing people remember TrVIIsh for. People want hags to act and look like sexy hags and cougars. Not screaming banshees and fat americunts wailing in wal-mart. America will never understand this simple fact, and its attempts to understand it comes off as disgusting like the culture it's drowning in.
>>741274563She's his wife of the last two games, and the one who set Kratos on his current path due to having precognition.
why is nobody pointing out how cringe and weird "god of war: laufey" is? the word "laufey" is so alien to the English language, "laow-faye" lmfao sounds like some san fran homo code word for putting estrogen in your adopted 7 year old's soilent

>>741274694Anon, she is a norse god based on norse mythology. The name has existed for thousands of years.
>>741274694Because nobody has any hope for it to begin with.Better question is why they didn't call it "Gods of War" to indicate that this is now a multi-character franchise.
>>741274661Safehorny shit only praised by reddit
>>741274513>>7412746611: She's not the player character.2: She has giant tits.3: She's fetish fuel.Its like saying Bayonetta proves that people want to play as mid looking hags because she's supposed to be in her 40s even though she looks like she's in her 20s.
>>741274756Still praised, not even Reddit is praising GOW: Luffy.

Is she meant to be some 40-something year old woman in game? just a normal 40-something year old, nothing more?
>>741272435Indians farming engagement.
>>741274618Feel free to notice on your own board, immigrant
>>741274796Dimitrescu is based on a woman who is older appearance-wise than Laufey. It has nothing to do with bust size, nothing to do with height or "Fetish fuel" (holy shit even fucking /v/ is parroting the "Girl fetishist" talking points now, this place is truly dead.) It's only because she looks and acts like a woman while Laufey doesn't. Even if she were young and acted like Laufey, she would be just as unappealing, see: Senua having schizo karen freakouts. Senua is a perfect example of western brainrot destroying what used to be a great character archetype. This British-made character is supposed to be 18-22. Literal antithesis of everything you said in >>741274513 She's still unappealing. Her face model isn't even ugly or inaccurate, it's because she acts like a right screaming cunt you would find in a Dunnes fighting over the last crumpet. Just admit it's because Americunts and other assorted westerners can't take making a woman behave like a woman. They see an old woman and their thoughts drift to the Karen cunt pitching a bitch-fit in Applebees and not the femme fatale (Are you going to say this is a fetish, too?) or the seductress that used to be commonplace in all fiction.
>>741274851sorry, we will rename her Jane Hamburger so you can pronounce it
>>741272435If you can't appeal to horny men aged 15-35 in uncompromising fashion, you have no business working in the games industry.
>>741275027Her scan actress is 41. She is supposed to be a jotunn and Kratos's wife.
>>741274851>cubeI have no idea about the cube. Probably some mythical thing from some other country.
>>741274864How does focusing on the main character cause an ugly old woman to be the main character?

>>741275107>How does focusing on the main characterToday anon learns you can have two main characters, maybe even more.
>>741272435i don't think it sucks, i'm just not interested in iti enjoyed the original god of war games because they provided a stronger fantasy of errant destruction and violencethe newer god of war games still have violence and destruction, but it's significantly tuned down, and they focus more on character emotions and personal developmentthat's not the fantasy i look for in video gamesit's just not for me
>>741275073Jane Hamburger would be lit
>>741275197But God of War is about Kratos, not an ugly old woman.
>>741275107By being a main character with 11 canonical games and had to have a 1000 year timeskip + personality change + added a new son and new wife, instead of starring an entirely new fresh character the creators aren't bored with yet and thus has no baggage.
>>741275183god how does Pokemon do it, they may be shit at making games but they hit it every time on character design. That's probably why pokemon is still on top while the west struggles to find the Modern Audience.
>>741275072Senua is so unproblematic compared to the fold and just invoking her name makes your whole point redundant.
>>741275204*it's just not for anyone
>>741275287It's an illusion. Everyone remembers the 3 or 4 stellar female designs from every gen, and just conveniently forgets all the misses they're packed shoulder-to-shoulder with.
>>741275316What the fuck does that mean, am I talking to an actual schizo SJW? Who cares how 'problematic' she is. She is the definition of a woman who is spoiled by HOW she acts and not how she looks. Lady Dimitrescu, a woman twice her age, has never been accused of not being a woman and is loved by many because she acts like a woman.
>>741274513There's a market for 2d hags, but even young fertile girls look ugly in these soulless AAA games
>>741275335i know a quite a few people who unironically love these sorts of "movie" gamesi think the developers are trying to shift the series to a new, more profitable fanbaseit's the only way this tonal shift makes sense
>>741272505I hate her plump looking face. She looks like one of those third rate dirty short gooks that will become fat in their 30s. Why dont use the old model? She looks younger and healthyier than this one
>>741272435But I don't want to play an action game as a 'normal woman in her 40s with no make up on'. :)
>230,000 dislikesKEK
>>741275408It funny he says that while posting a picture of Elvira, who did shows well into her 50s with nobody complaining about it.
>>741272435I have normal 40 year old women at the office, why would I want them in video games?
>>741275427>i think the developers are trying to shift the series to a new, more profitable fanbaseYUP, Any day now, that modern audience is gonna come save movie games like Dustborn!
>>741275470ngl the comments section is the most blase, jejune mindrot imaginable
>>741275389>SJWtime for bed, grandpa
>>741275468ok you may have to not play this game then
>>741272435>>741272625more like 50's
>>741275287Pokehags really are perfect, but the new pokemon games are getting pozzed too.I guess you can't get away with it forever.
>>741272435If Hollywood producers can’t be convinced that casting an 45 year old women with no make-up as lead actress will sell their blockbuster movie, I don’t see why game producers should be convinced otherwise. Its simple. If the public won’t watch a movie with an ugly female lead, I won’t play a game with one.
I think it's hilarious listening to libs playing devil's advocate.>"There might be SOMEONE out there who wants to play this random lady as much as Kratos!"It's fucking mind-boggling delusion.
>>741274513Men love hags.But we want sexy hags. We don't want returnal hags.
id rather load up the dr robotnik snooping as usual youtube video and repeat "SNOOPINGAS USUAL I SEE SNOOPINGAS SNOOPING PINGAS PINGAS SNOOPINGAS USUAL" over and over for 8-10 hours than buy+play this slopI still havent played the original god of war 2 and 3, are they better than 1? might play the whole trilogy on emulator
>>741275183
>>741275505wokeslop fails because the people who would theoretically enjoy it don't really play video games, at most, they'll dabble with mobile games for ~10 minutes when they're boredi think nu-gow is aiming for the last of us/telltale walking dead enjoyersthe theoretical audience is people who enjoy movie games with progressive "mature" emotional undertones, not these mossad "look we made a black lesbian the protagonist to own the chuds please spend $70 to win the culture war" demoralization psyopsi think this game will receive positive reviews from people who don't play it but enjoy the idea of its existencei don't think it will be extremely successful
>>741275389Her behavior makes perfect sense in the context of the game and story though. She became a psycho after her husband was blood eagled.
>>741275638Anon... you can't breed dead women.
>>741275638WE will fall for this bait
>>741275623It's not any different from people wanting to play Sparda in DMC, they are both important posthumous characters tied to the MC.
>>741272435Think of playable character in previous God of War games.Does Kratos look like a normal dude?
>>741275471Later than that. But no one complained about Elvira because she was still using a push-up bra and lots of makeup so unless you were up real close she could kind of pass for mostly looking like the same character. Plus she's a nice lady. And also, she's a comedy character, not a video game protagonist.I think people are more annoyed that, if you're absolutely committed to the bit of having your game character be a female, why would you go out of your way to A.) Choose to face-model it off of a decently attractive actress only then to make her fucking ugly and stupid looking, and B.) Try and make her feel like she's just as strong as the 350lb muscled god that was the main character of the last game?CAN a female character work? Sure, happens all the time, no one complains about it in games like Bayonetta or Cyberpunk or whatever. The problem is trying to convince people who played God of War that playing as a woman is "just as good" because you just give her all of the same moves and powers.
>>741275647Returnal is at least a fun, unique take on the high difficulty """roguelite""" shooter fadWhat does Goddess of War promise? Even slower combat with somehow less spectacle AND more cinematic focus? A story that wants to be taken extremely seriously but with constant quips and wacky happenings like a C-tier anime?
>>741272827There's not a single fucking woman who ever lived that believes this. What they really believe, however, is that it will compete with them for male attention, and raise the standards for uglier women in order to be able to secure male attention.
>>741275728Sparda is a badass of legend. Not the main character's boring old maid of a wife. The fact you can't parse the difference means you are one of them.
>>741275786No one wants to play as an old ugly flat granny and interestingly enough NO ONE DID.
>>741275638Kek chuds are so pathetic
>>741275471Olden days Hollywood hags were built different. Barbara Eden started doing I Dream of Jeannie when she was in her mid-30s (left) and did the last special when she was 54 (right).
post your favorite vidya hags
>>741275821The second game makes a big deal how she is the only person other than Kratos who fought Thor to a standstill, and the entire plot of those two games were set in motion by her.
>>741275728Sparda is a bug demon
>>741275698I do this
Nu GoW is 8 years old. We know nothing of this character beyond the fact she died, was a giant (but not really lol) and was liked in all the 9 Realms. She apparently fought Thor to a standstill but shes easily subdued and manhandled by two random lackeys from two random gods. In the first 5 minutes of God of War 1 we fight and kill the hydra that fought Hercules. Theres no investment to be had in this character, her looking like a coked out Deborah Ann Woll is just icing on the cake.
>>741275427Anon, the "shift" in question happened 8 years agoWhat audience would be interested in Laufey that wouldn't be interested in Dad of War 2018 and Ragnarok?
>>741275786>Goddess of WarThat title isn't even accurate. It's "Wife of God of War"
>>741273292he's right
>>741272792>>741272625>>741272435I will NOT support your children OR your retirement
>>741272435Ah yes>"Normal woman in her 40s"Is the title of everyone's favorite action game franchise!
>>741275884
>>741275890What a load of horseshit. Yeah I'm sure this scrawny middle-aged lady fought Thor to a standstill. I'm glad I was never a fan of this series or this soiboi male feminist's wetdream of a strong womyn just beating people she had no business winning against would be really depressing.
>>741272435>normal woman>normalshe is a giant warrior iin a fantasy game
>>741276128It's been established that looks don't determine a god's strength or Kratos would never have been able to do what he did with the Collossus or Kronos.
>>741274560This
>>741276202That's part of why these games are terrible. If you can't have someone be musclebound when it's appropriate, why the fuck is Kratos?Face it, it's just lazy writing so they can have women stand toe-to-toe with the men because libs hate acknowledging women are disadvantaged in strength. If they can pretend there's no difference, they don't even need to worry about trannies obliterating women in their own sports leagues.
>>741272435I have never seen anyone who wasnt a total fag use this meme. Pretty sure it was populated by Kingdom Hearts cultists
>>741274573I just won't play a game where the mc is a 6/10 woman.I'd play some other game or spend my time doing something else
>>741276345They're gods/godlike beings anon.
>>741272435It's funny that vidya only now hits its hag action hero phase, due to long development times, as it already massively failed and died in movies.
>>741276416Like I said. Bad, lazy writing. You are just holding up exactly what I explained to you and using it as evidence, when it proves the writers' intent EXACTLY like I explained.
>>741272792
>>741276503Yet I expect you don't so much as blink when a guy in full armor survives a blow from a dragon instead of being instantly turned to paste.
>>741276546>and then anon bitches at a female character that isn't in lingerie even if they are otherwise attractive
>>741276590You are mistaking me for someone who needs "realism." When I'm just explaining to you I don't like "transparent propaganda."
Sony really needs to pull some strings and move Heaven and Earth if need be, to get Bazz into the game somehow. For the fans.
>>741276416Its funny this is just proving how much of a disservice they did to the aesthetic of the games. All the gods in the Greek games looked healthy and muscular, even Hermes. All the ones in the Norse games look like losers.
>>741276649Just stop it
>>741276715I hope you get your wish. I hope you get your "Morbius" moment, anon.
>>741272435>normal woman>implying asian women aren't normalcalifornian "men" really can't help themselves
>>741276715Sony really needs that one transgender individual that turns it all around. My vote goes to Bazz as well!
>>741276672How is it transparent propaganda when its been in all of the previous games too?>>741276748Because the gods in the Norse games are already in their fall, and are outright stated to be weaker than Olympus.
>>741272625DoomGODS won, you lost. Cope and seethe.
>>741276789>How is it transparent propaganda when its been in all of the previous games too?Oh anon. Make no mistake. I will sing no praises of Dad of Boy or any of Sony's movieslop modern entries. And if you are trying to sell me on Dad of Boy NOT being the moment the franchise was hijacked to push libtard narratives well... pull the other one.
>>741276853Yet it is still consistent to the games before that. As was mentioned, there is no way Kratos would have physically overpowered some of the enemies he does in the old games no matter how muscular he may look.
>>741276715WE NEED GOD OF WAR: BAZZ!
>>741277042You're talking about the difference of a muscular dude doing impressive feats of strength (no matter HOW unrealistic), vs. a middle aged woman with NO muscle tone doing the exact same. Disingenuous as fuck. A muscular man is a way easier sell even if it's superhuman and fucking impossible. Shut the fuck up and tell your handlers you suck at your job.
>>741275728>Sparda - a central character to Dante and Vergil known to have fought the entirety of hell in the name of humanity. Fought against Mundus(another key character)>Kratos' wife - wifeShe's not known as a combatant, nor attached to any major characters beyond Kratos. She's as relevent as the whores he fucks in the original games.Not even comparable.
>>741272435>female protagWokeslop garbage belongs in the trash
>>741274971The monks are demon worshipers on their path to hell. They just happen to be right about not doing anything when some shitty game comes out. You're seething because you know that the people who are defending this game on twitter aren't going to buy it either.
>>741277142
>>741276715Bazz would be a proper protagonist who would satisfy both the people who want a male and a female lead for the game.
>>741276649The age of 40 will never be in demand
>>741276748>even HermesWhy wouldn't Hermes be healthy and muscular? He stole Apollo's cattle when he was literally one day old.
>>741272435Because no one likes women over 25. In general. Not even normalfags(although some will pretend to for goodgoy points.)
wasnt hera from gow3 an old bag? make this new mc like that instead
>>741272435>>741272625Still not gonna spend 80 dollars plus tax plus tip for your shitty movie game with a heckin' quirky cube sidekick, Sony.
"I want to play as an ugly old woman with zero sex appeal!" -said no one ever
>>741272625I don't want to play as a "normal woman in her 40's with no makeup"How is this hard to understand?
>>741272435>fantasy game>not even humanYou're fucking retarded, GCJnigger
>>741278134Uh, wow. That's pretty fucked up. I'm gonna have to complain to your boss about your problematic opinion. Literally shaking right now.
>>741278261I wouldn't want to play as an average 40 year old fat schlubby loser either unless it was in a comedic context like ghostbustersif laundry was a comedy game where a dumb bitch gets isekai'd into the god of war universe and everyone makes fun of her and she's constantly fucking up and making a fool of herself I could tolerate her plain appearancein a serious action adventure game this just doesn't work.
>>741272435Why would I want to play as a normal 40 year old woman with no makeup?Is this game made solely for middle-aged women?
>>741272625>A new Hitler should appear and defend Jewish psyopsKermungal?
>>741272435Why would I hand over money to play as a Middle aged hag woman?
>>741273415Kratos is a woman's sexual fantasy. They would probably say he has dad bod and needs to be 8 percent body fat like a nigher from west Africa.Immature young women with arrested development like pretty feminine faces. Women want big strong guys who can kill other people and take their stuff. That's reality. Who gets more pussy, the ugly football player who can beat everyone up or the pretty nerd who gets his ass kicked?
imagine falling into a coma after GoW3 and waking up to see god of laundry without ever seeing nu-GoW
>>741277492Because speed is his whole thing and people dont associate being fast with being muscular. If any god should have been lithe it would have to be Apollo or ironically Hades, but the former never appears and the latter has always been seen as this demonic, underworld occupant in modern context.
>>741273038I also love watching long boring cutscenes!! I used to hate doing cool combo's and fast paced combat... I want to listen to Laufey cry about her feelings!!!
why would i want to play as a 40 yo woman with no makeup on though?
>>741278909>>741279780Notice how the thread went dead after this? They don't have an answer for this.
>>741280365The answer is you don't have to play it

>>741272435I dont care if shes ugly or hot, I do not play video games with female protagonist. Never. I am bot target audience plus I think nu GoWs combat is medicore as fuck.

>>741273415Shame about the triple chin but id suck the milk out of those hangers
>>741273415>Not even movie stars age gracefully in their 40s.Well yeah, because modern women are idiots who want to eat as much as men despite only needing 80% of a man's calories. So they end up as fat fucks, and being a fat fuck causes anyone to age poorly.
>>741272435Im more confused when people post her next to the actress. Both are pretty ugly. Redheads in general if they have the nasty bright orange hair have ugly facial features.
>>741280429Correct, so stop getting pissy when we're saying we're not going to buy it.
>>741272435>hmm yes today i want to play a video game where i play as a normal woman in her 40ssaid no one
>>741272435Videogames are supposed to be exciting.Videogames are predominantly played by men.Men are not excited by the prospect of following a middle aged wine aunt around.Feminists flout the rules of etiquette that older generations followed but still expect modern men to follow those rules. If you want to live in a world where men keep a polite attitude towards women, then step one is for women to learn humility and respect men's spaces.
>>741272435I didn't read the thread but it's a video game not a documentary. You don't have to make her an ugly used up 40-year-old roastie. She can be made good looking instead. Thanks for asking and reading.
>>741272435>>741272625Isn't she a god and not a 'normal woman'?

>>741272435I'm not interested in a normal woman in her 40s with no makeup on.
>>741272435>normal womanWasn't she a literal goddess? I only know about GoW for shitposts.
>>741272435Why would I play video games to see normal people? Kratos isn't a normal looking guy
>>741277480What about kitchen, faggot? 40 yo women are in high demand there.
>>741273428wow she really looks like she's on a date with me!
>>741277492Dunno. There are sculptures of him and he looks like a twink.

>>741281838I masturbated to gamer leg. Your point?
>>741281556They don't even look like normal people that you'd encounter at a grocery store. A five minute walk outside unironically has more eye candy than the main cast in a modern western videogame.Not that I'm saying that "normal" should be the goal for your typical videogame character, especially the protagonist.
>Freya can jump and double jump>Kratos can no longer do thisWhat did the devs mean by this

>>741282954Just stop shoving ultra-realistic faces in our faces. The entire cosmetics industry is based around the idea of offsetting age and blemishes and then they shove high-detail age and blemishes directly in a camera with overly-shaded hyper-detailed HD female playdough faces.Ask Ninja Theory how well that worked out for them.

>>741283186I know
>>741272435The virgin mindset is getting upset about ugly women in vidya, the patrician mindset is getting upset about ugly men AND women in vidya
>>741283180I never expected a kraut to be this retarded, like trusting an LLMBut I guess it's all turkroaches now
>>741283246You had dozens of studio to give an example of giving women an uglified look- Ninja Theory definitely isn't one of them- and you probably never played the games and just saw some manipulator screenshotting unflattering angle to prove she's ugly... like get a grip
>female protagmiss me with that gay shit
>>741283246And really, a key issue is that these "cutting-edge hyper-realistic faces" also inherently trigger the uncanny valley. They don't get a pass. They don't have the magic of the improved fidelity. They don't coast. Goldeneye faces are more enduring than this shit because these just run right into the "this is an abomination pretending to be human" filter genetically programmed into us.>>741283361Doesn't matter if they're attractive or not. The whole "shove a glistening CG playdough face into the camera to show off visuals" shit is annoying.
>>741272435Have you ever heard the saying "don't ask questions that you don't want to know the answer to"?If you're going to take the stage and insist that people celebrate you to such a degree that they place you at the center of our society's art, you should expect to be compared against their ideals and fantasies, which is completely fair, because you're actively trying to occupy that spot. If you "just want to exist" (they don't; they're trying to force men to celebrate them), then go live a low key life out of the public eye, and I'm sure everyone will be perfectly polite to you when they meet you on the street.
>>741272435>>741272625>>741272792>No make up>REAL WOMEN ARE UGLY YOU FUCKING CHUDS YOU ONLY THINK WOMEN ARE PRETTY BECAUSE THEY WEAR MAKEUP AND USE CAMERA TRICKS TO HIDE HOW DISGUSTING THEY ARElmaoFunny that wife of war revealed how much these "people" hate real life attractive women.
>>741272608She looks exactly like a Norse Soccer Mom
>>741283423>The whole "shove a glistening CG playdough face into the camera to show off visuals" shit is annoying.Who the fuck is promoting that shit, unless you're on Xitter constantlyFor what they are, the games (especially the first one) look great and the whole audio display of some schizophrenic viking larper was amazing to experience via headphonesI don't mind me some semi walking sims, especially those that do something fun with it, and don't overstay their welcome
>>741283423I could also get into paragraphs about the idea of heroic forms and how humanity has basically always tried to escape its own limitations and inherent body dysmorphia via the creation or elevation of the human concept into heroic or divine forms. And how realism, while a goal in some art forms, is generally beat out by a sort of dynamism relating to what the thing is doing or how the thing is flowing or what is happening beyond the simple structure.>>741283634I have never played these games nor will I play them. All I see are snippets of the reveals which focus on a big "look at these graphics" moments.
>>741272435What supposed to be controversial in here? No one finds women in their 40s attractive.
>>741283281Then why have grizzled old men and somewhat grotesque male comedy characters been popular since forever? Are you seriously trying to argue that the masses who love these characters are all virgins?The simple fact of the matter is that masculine and feminine charm are different because men's and women's roles in the survival strategy of the human species are different. To flip the tables, if you have some effeminate male prancing around in a frilly dress making girly gestures, most people find that repulsive, but when a woman does it, that's wife material.
>>741272435Because people don't want realistic character designs in games, realism is a shitty artstyle.
>>741275086Nobody forced them to have ugly shit nobody likes on screen
>>741275670What makes sense in not having ugly unlikable shit on screen
>>741272435Women look better with makeup and I'm tired of this gay shit where we pretend otherwise.>no actually the stuff designed to make you look better actually doesn't workShut up you dumb blind nigger.

It's also such a central theme of the Bible that you can't be both a Christian and a feminist.
>>741272551no, she doesn't t. 37
>>741272435The ps5 is so fucking starved for original games, this will probably still do fine but man is this game a messIt being a mishmash slop of different fantasy ideas and mythologies instead of an adaptation of a specific mythology is already a turn off.Also everyone was expecting Kratos' wife to be some brutal warrior in her past, instead she is fighting with ribbons. This could maybe work if she was some elegant chinese martial artist but making her like that just further makes this an incoherent mishmash of ideas.Also the first things she fights are flower enemies. Her armor also looks like ass, like lv1 MMO armor type shit.
>>741272920Mental insanity, Classical gods were meant to rappresent the virtues but also a twist on the sins of humanity, it just makes sense for the one women to be all extremely attractive and for the men to be all in peak physical form

meanwhile>female character that is actually easy on the eyes>"this fucking sucks actually"
I'm not interested in playing as an ugly woman in her 40s with no make up on in the game franchise about a Spartan Warrior (later God of War) who goes around killing everybody.In the first place, you have no business making characters in fiction ugly unless it's relevant to their character (for example, an ugly old witch or a hag that practices sorcery) or relevant to their story (for example, a character is ugly, is recognized as ugly in-universe and part of his or her character arc is how they deal with that.)Finally, the idea of playing as an ugly woman is so revolting that they needed to hijack an established and popular series of games to justify it (i.e. we already have "established audience" so we need to put this ugly hag into the game to capture the "modern audience".)I also don't want some twitter faggot to post bait here, so once you're done downloading opinions from here so you can argue with other faggots inside of the hole you crawled out of, kindly fuck off and don't come back.
>>741286601>reddit spacing for a dogshit opinionwell well well

>>741272920>Classical Gods were never meant to be inhumanly beautifulLying through your teeth here.if a God was ugly it was written specifically (since you cited Aprhodite, her husband Ephaestus comes to mind).

>>741272435I have seen women in their 40s. They are not as ugly as that.
>>741272435She's ugly, plain and simple.There are much better looking women in their 40s.She's also no normal woman, she's supposed to be a goddess.When normal women are better looking than supposed goddesses is when things gets retarded
>>741288021This. Austere people don't need to live special lives. They're basically neets that live in beautiful temples doing fucking nothing all day and rely on charity.

>>741272435"normal woman in her 40s with no make up"IS THIS A DRAMA? IS THIS AN ISEKAI? NO? SO WHY THE FUCK THERE IS A NORMAL PERSON IN A FANTASY?Her design doesn't suck because she is a woman, or in her 40s o without make up. It's because she is NORMAL.I hate this current trend where every character just looks like "realistic human wearing a costume".
>>741288976I don't work for fun or for the money to consoom, I work to take care of my wife and baby.
>>741277480Speak for yourself, 40+ know how to do that thing with their pinky you like so much.
>>741272920The Greeks put beauty on the same level as Truth and Goodness. In fact, they put it even higher. Physical beauty defined your moral worth. Their aristocrats were the most concerned with the physical quality and grooming of their children in the entire world. That's why they were so advanced. The moment they started caring about worthless shit like wealth instead, Greece fell and was raped by Macedonians and Romans.
>>741272920
>>741272435>>741272625I don't want to play as a 40-year-old woman or look at a 40-year-old woman, and I will not play or even look at games that have 40-year-old women in them.Your worship of ugliness is evil and insane.
>>741272435Why do people have a problem with women being beautiful and/or idealized? It's so fucking weird.
>>741272435>weI dont spend nearly as much time obsessing over women as incels do, i just sort of witness secondhand the nonstop crybaby drama
>>741272435>weBusy day at the trooncord, tourist?
>>741291174Only in nerd hobbies though.Hollywood, television and the music industry is built around it. Curious.
>>7412737501. Ugliness will never be a virtue no matter what you say.2. Gameplay can't save a game if it's not fun to look at (=ugly).3. Don't pretend nu-GoW is going to have good gameplay. We know it'll be formulaic slop just like the previous ones.
>>741287172This was made like this on purposeThe massive skin pores and the wrinkles and the skin blemishes and smeared eyeliner and sweat and dirt don't come as standard. Someone looked at the face model and said "we need to make this look worse". Time and money were dedicated to creating ugliness which was not there to begin with. It's a videogame, so it could have looked like anything it all, anything you could imagine, but a budget was assigned for someone to make it look like THAT deliberately, at great expenseYou should now ask why this was important, what the goal of the people who requested this was, why it was worth spending money to do this in particular. Was it because God of War players requested it and the developer thought that the money spent to give her moles and acne would improve sales of the game? Or was there another ideological reason, an ideology which was somehow more important than money to a publicly traded company?
>>741291469Socrates would ask what is beauty?And then argue for utility
reminder that 40 year old women don't want to look like that either
>>741272435I'm just not going to buy it
>>741291776I thought coffee was from South America.
>>741291776RetardThe model is the exact fucking same as in Ragnarok. The only difference is lighting and textures.
>>741272435>Art that imitates life is often mediocre; art should transform reality, not merely reproduce it.
Why are there dozens of threads on this board about nothing but character designs
>>741291842Most people dont want to age at all
>>741272435who the FUCK wants to play as a 40 year old "normal" woman
>>741291357>Hollywood, televisionCompared to pre-woke era?They look like shit even there
>>741291990Incels are literally obsessed with women
>>741272435Why is there a normal woman in her 40s with no makeup on in a game called God of War?
>>741291956>The only difference is that it looks like shitThen don't make it look like shit.Don't face scan it and make her beautiful and sexyCater to normal people
>>741291990Because hobby/industry invader decided to die on the ugliness ill for their unwanted politics>>741292045Woketards hate women
well the game either needs pretty characters or unique gameplay but i doubt it will be unique and the talking cube also sinks my interests even further down. Seeing as this is afterlife, we might get a few how awful Kratos was out of context forgetting how he got fucked over by Gods a few dozens of times>>741291978Unironically this
>>741273076Could you deepthroat Plato any harder? He's pretty much the only guy historically arguing that deities and religion should be perfect. There's a reason Plato shows up in Elden Ring as the Goldmask character and he's a lunatic crank whose argument is taking the divine out of the divine in favor of institution.
Men want female characters wjo look like this
>>741292218I hate wokies and chuds
>>741287781She wrote at the very start and even said herself it's probably completely different by now
>>741287172The post-modern feminists believe that media brainwashed people into the current beauty standards, and that by changing the media they can override those beauty standards with new ones.
>>741292258post back view
>>741292148She doesn't look ugly at all dumbass. She looks like a normal mom which is the whole point. Faye isn't supposed to look like a supermodel sex bomb. That's not their intention.
>>741272435What's the point of being a god if you still age like shit
>>741292323they aren't wrong since fashion shows are one of the primary reinforcement methods of rail-skinny women, so much so it only starts getting dialed back when everybody notices they're not skinny, they're anorexic
>>741292403
>>741291990cause thats the only way they keep people talking about their slop
i don't want to play as a woman in her 40s but i don't want to play as a onions muttlennial either. you get what you deserve for playing nu-gow.
>>741291990Because the people bitching aren't creatives, in fact they loathe creatives. It's sort of like how the biggest AI shills are uncreative people who are really randy at the thought of "stealing skill" away from the people who actually hold it and "obsoleting" artists.
i just want my women in games to be hot. Simple. Is it a gooner take? Maybe. Is it morally wrong? I don't think so. Do i have to buy games with women who don't appeal to me and my tastes? Absolutely not. I am fucking tired of pretending i am some kind of fucking monk who can look past a woman's looks. I fucking can't so give me hot fucking women if you want my money.
>>741292709Then go play porn games or just watch porn since it seems like you don't care about actually "playing" the game in the first place.
>>741289138I can properly taste cilantro and mint. I can easily digest milk. I can see all the colors of the rainbow. But genetics fucked me on this one.
Anyone else think it's funny that an RPG maker game made by one dude has better female character designs than any AAA game released this decade
>>741292815There is so little smut of the axe-murderer "gardener" woman that this point is rendered moot
>>741292408>It was the chef's intention to shit on your plate! He even has a backstory for why he did it! It's symbolic of how one has to make mistakes on his road to becoming a leader!Nobody cares, and we all know why they hired these people and why these people chose this direction.
>>741272435>Why are we like this?>Be fiction>Literally can do anything, imagination is the limit>Hypercube stellar craft firing black holes at each other? Piece of cake>Supernatural knights able to cleave moons in half with their longswords? Easy peasy>Esoteric non-euclidean shapes devouring people's minds? Not even a challenge>Be modern retarded writer/creative-type>Huh, need to continue IP about gods, supernatural shit?>IDEA>Women which look uglier than the cashier at the local fast food place>GENIUS, WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG???
>>741292893A grand, deeper, maybe even political, motive leading to a convoluted master plan of social-societal dominance to avoid admitting it's your personal opinion and you have nothing further to say about it because you aren't interested enough in it to complain about anything but its surface aesthetics and character design?
>>741292892Why do you need porn to enjoy a character?
>>741293034Because the game's artist keeps giving Hellen enormous wobblers and she should be using them
>>741272435This isn't about realism or any of the other excuses that they use to try to make this sound high brow.This is about narcissistic women trying to control what men see and celebrate, and it's about unironic feminist grifters who use claims of victimhood to acquire money and power.
>>741272435>no make-up onHahahahahaha!
>>741272435I post one racial statistics image in response to someone asking for them (and don't even begin pretending it's not vidya related when they're forced in every single high-budget game in the last 10 years), I get an insta 3 days ban. Meanwhile this shit shill thread has been up for 8 hours. Jannies are subhuman filth.
>>741290881A tiny number of Platonists did that.Not the majority ever.
>>741292995It seems to be a universal opinion among wokoids that whether the female characters are attractive isn't a big deal. Great. Then it shouldn't be a big deal if you just make them hot by default, right?>No, what we mean is that what YOU want from your videogames isn't a big deal!If that's the industry's stance towards the people who built these franchises up as customers, you shouldn't be surprised when the studio starts imploding due to lack of customer interest and the former customers respond by cheering. It might take a decade and/or 2-3 entries (I don't think that this game will flop, but it will probably see diminishing returns), but every big franchise that's been longhoused is going to meet the same fate as Star Wars.
>>741294173This post has absolutely nothing at all to do with the contents of the post it's replying to
>>741272435Why are Sony fans simping for ugly foids
>>741272435gaslightinghags
>>741294173
>Oh no, I can't play as a hot milf for some reasonIncels really complain about the weirdest shit.
>>741294236He said that not wanting the character to boring and/or revolting is nothing but->surface aesthetics and character designYou know as well as I do that this is just an attempt to trivialize people wanting to play as characters that are appealing to them.
>>741294349this youtube commenter is operating on at least six or seven layers of strawman
>>741294418This ties into an idea that every game should be appealing to everybody and that's delusional at best
>>741294440Yeah, the team behind this is just oozing with love for the franchise's origins.
>>741272435Nice reddit meme niggerkike.https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/s/HTY4O90Wrb
>>741272435the series is called god GOD GEE OH DEE of warthere's nothing-god like about her, she does not look heroicDO YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND THAT? dumb cunt
>>741294542believing remakes and continuations of old IPs is politically motivated or bent on destroying them and not because AAA development is financially unsustainable leading to a cycle of worthless "safe" media to avoid impacting profit is also a strawman
>>741272625>>741272435because hags are fucking gross
>>741294295It's a cultWEAR THE MASKKNEEL FOR BLMSIMP FOR HAGSWho knows what deranged thing they'll do next in tandem(because any individuality is evil)
>>741272435I don't want to play a middle-aged woman.What's so hard to understand about that?
>>741272435>normalAsian women look way younger at 40, so do some latin americans like Peruvians, native gene buff and all that. With that said, would so hard.
>>741272792Forgot to mention he completely loses his shit on /v/ when someone points out that giant tits =/= good videogame
>>741272435I did nothing.
>>741294942then don'tpeople on this board seriously argue from a position that every video game on earth needs to appeal to them, making them the planet's greatest retards
>>741295253Playstation in general does not appeal to me, not one game is appealing, but that's okay let trannies and aging women have their console
>>741275657she was talking about her shota count
>>741294942Yet you're okay with playing middle-aged men.
>>741276715Bazz of War would actually sell
>>741295404Yeah. What's the issue, sister? I'm okay with playing as conan gigachad 3000 too.
>>741295508Seems hypocritical desu.
>>741295404yeah, exactly thatbecause middle age men do actually war, adventure and all that, that's what men of middle age do and have been doing since forever
I don't think we've gone far enough. I want to play as a fat woman in her 40's.
>>741295585she has nice teeth
I hope she will be constantly talking about how we must be better women and that we need to rise above toxic femininity
>>741295578No, sister. Men just functional differently.
>>741295585That's where they'll go with it next if nobody stops them
>>741272435Why would i want to play as a normal 40 year old anyone? If your character isnt particularly cool, cute, or sexy, dont be surprised they dont resonate with anyone. There has to be some kind of unique visual appeal. "She looks fine she looks normal" isnt enough. Why tf should i be interested in her, if were to go based on visuals? I dont care to find out anything about her or her game because shes uninteresting to me visually.
>>741294542Yeah, why else would Cory hand director off to someone else whose also been with the series since 1?
>>741295253>people on this board seriously argue from a position that every video game on earth needs to appeal to themI don't see anything wrong with this. F*male gamers don't belong, never did, and I don't care for 3rd world-coded games, either.I'm a white guy and I want all games to cater to me. Simple as. MAID yourself if you disagree. >>741295404Sometimes, maybe, but I prefer playing men in their prime.
Why would I want to play a video game as a 40 year old woman? What's the goal of the game? Post on Twitter and nag my 3rd husband?
>>741272435>normal woman in her 40sthis is not a sane argument when the character in question is supposed to be a literal goddess. She is not a normal woman in her 40s.
>>741295938>goddessDoes that she wants to appear that way?
>>741295578Why is that hypocritical? They're two different things. It's like if I said I don't want to play a video game about hippos, and you say, "well you played this other game about dogs, so you're a hypocrite." It makes no sense.
>>741295920We get it, you hate women
>>741272435why am I playing as a woman in ther 40s in a god of war game
>>741296060Dunno why are you?
>>741296007nigger whatpost at me again and i'm raping you
>>741295804There are many games with normal looking female MCs which are critically acclaimed.
>>741296049I wouldn't say hate, but they're not particularly interesting. And the point of a video game is that it's interesting.
>>741296135well technically Im not (playing this game)
>>741295876
>>741294838Yes, I'm sure that these two were chosen because they were clearly the safest picks to keep God of War fans coming back for the foreseeable future and bringing new fans with them. There have not been any industry presentations, departments established, or company policies dedicated to furthering the mission (there's a word they never use except to talk about entertaining the customer) of feminizing the industry.And the Hollywood machine is very responsive to declining sales and the customer telling them why they're not buying. They just humbly listen and course correct like any profit-seeking business would!
>>741296272yes i also think "listen and believe" and "turn gaming into a religion, turn fans into fanatics" GDC fluff pieces happened yesterday and that posting the writers' faces is a great argument when sony is the one mandating the tone and substance of its games
>>741296049sure, but how is that going to make your game profitable?
Sony really played a trick on their actual brain amputated brown playerbase.If they never put Kratos into the raped nu-series nobody wouldve thought its anything like God of War.All the characters look like generic mediocre hollywood actors in capeshit outfits rather than larger than life shit from GoW.But they put Kratos with a beard in it and every lobotomite clapped.Now they removed Kratos out of the equation and its something entirely else.Just some shitty Sony movie game with zero ties to what it originally was.I dont think as many will fall for it. Even normgroids can snap out of it at some point.
>>741296272
>>741293270You just gotta go with the flow man. I'm just happy these characters exist at all
>>741296814
>>741296885
>>741296945
>>741295342
>>741272435I don't consider nu-GoW to be part of GoW so why would I want to play as some made up side character and not Kratos?
>>741296782If the people who didn't like wokeshit were a tiny outlier and weren't absolutely correct about its impacts, the western entertainment industry wouldn't be imploding. And it's not the entertainment industry as a whole. It's only the segments that play by the rules of Hollywood.Also, a wokoid would totally never lie or exaggerate to further his agenda. Unthinkable.
>>741272435Why does she not have make up on when she has magic powers?
>>741297273>Also, a wokoid would totally never lie or exaggerate to further his agenda. UnthinkablThe irony.
>>741297562>No uConcession accepted
>>741297273anon the western industry is imploding because they spend hundreds of billions of dollars on safe slop, not because your political football team is a whale who represents a major chunk of their earningsthere is no "silent majority" behind you on this one, and calling them liars and you ARE a whale that represents a major chunk of their earnings goes against sales and returns data. you are a karen, anon, i am so sorry you had to learn this way
>>741272435*normal ulgy woman in her 40s with no makeup on
>>741297994hephaestus is dragging his malformed fucking nuts across your face
>>741282954Sorry, I'm just not going to buy that game you're defending so fervently. You aren't going to play it either.
>>741286907>so desperate they have to claim a game where you can run around killing gay people lmao
>>741292505>hey, listen to the shit my english teacher at school taught me based retard
>>741295578Hypocrisy means that you don't believe the things that you're saying.We're very honest about what we want: masculine men, hot feminine women, masculine stories. And why we want it: Because we like it. We don't apologize when we say that we want games to be aimed at guys again. It's the wokes who sit over there and pretend like they care about realism, equality, fighting sexual objectification, etc. when it's really just about narcissistic women controlling men's spaces, enabled by their beta simps who don't know to set boundaries for women (to be fair, conservatives are even worse about this in some regards, which is why this culture has been allowed to become so engrained).
>>741272435It's because most losers here have never seen a woman without makeup.It gets especially pathetic when they hail aisan woman as even more beautiful when they just have even more makeup.
>>741297709You are delusional if you don't think people here lie their ass off to make games they don't like look worse than they are.
>>741273415massive tits can make any ugly women somewhat attractive
>>741299464Obsessing over tits are for children. Men prefer asses and thighs.
>>741273428Holy based, the only good post in this entire thread
>>741274168They're gonna make her black or brown aren't they?
>>741272435Cope all you want, I'm not playing it because I'm not the target audience and I will continue to tell that to everyone who says I should play it.
>>741272435Bro my mother is in her 40s. You might as well be telling me to be attracted to my 80 year old grandma.
