20 years ago, this kind of character design was very common in a lot of territories, east and west.Now, her very existence causes endless seething.What changed?
>>741850613Nothing? It was always like this.
>>741850696Yeah, I guess you're right. Nothing has changed at all.
>>741850613The culture shifted. Apparently nowadays in media it's frowned upon to find a young gorgeous female attractive.
>>741850814But how does it affect them personally?
>>741850613>20 years ago, this kind of character design was very common in a lot of territories, east and west.Really? So you can post them right?
>>741850874They should just let people enjoy things.
>>741850874People confound their beliefs with their identity. When you challenge that, it's like a personal attack on them. In the same way telling a football fan his team sucks will trigger him, even though they're a separate entity from him.
>>741850901Cool I can post this twice in one day.
>>741851002I dont see the resemblance one bit aside from "female"
>>741850613>What changed?Celibacy must be pushed unquestionably into video games.
>>741851002Much as I hate to split hairs, that game didn't come out 20 years ago. Hella close though.
>>7418510022D girls are hardly a comparison
>>741850613the technology was never this goodpersonally she's the cutest female ive ever seen in a game, maybe ever
>>741851127Xblades was a 6/10 adventure game back in 2007. That means it'd be a 10/10 right beside Stellar Blade if it released today as is.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYySvjX07Ic
Boomers will see this and Evie and say they are the same
>>741851257That's the closest i'd say really, but only on technicalities.
>>741851229She's clearly not photo-realistic.It's the reason I said 2D is not a fair comparison because you can ignore basic anatomy for the eyes, nose, and so on.
>>741851257of course they are
>>741851320I don't think this sort of crowd would seethe as much at a character with 60 polygons.
>>741851424Why are you pasting pictures of stellar blade over this old ass image of roasties seething over a sports player (I think it was volleyball?)
>>741851062Female, young and obviously aimed at japanese gooners. It's basically the same in 20 years ago hots before of rednose cosplayers became the visual cue for 12 year old to coom.>>741851102It's closer to 20 years than to 10 and was 5 years behind when it released>>741851379No photo realistic bait passable 20 years ago.
>>741851456Because the issue behind it is real
>>741850613Looking like a 3 month toddler was common?Why do you keep using this image you disingenuous faggot? Use the one in which she looks like a baby
>>741851472>No photo realistic bait passable 20 years ago.Of course. It's also a reason why a lot of games could pass with having teen characters in sexy outfit - because they were very stylized / animated and clearly not realistic.
>>741851523Sounds like trannyspeak to me, stop trying to co-opt other issues into your own.
>>741851591
>>741851002Back in the day this game was seen as cheap shovelware with nothing to it besides sex appeal.
>>741851523But the issues aren't the same?The seethe about the volleyball player is people saying she's plain despite her being physically attractive. The "issue" with Evie is people saying she's a child.
>>741850613Literally everything causes endless seething now. Humanity's heart has become infected by evil and hate
Here is 26 year old medicore character action with goonerbait, but its goonerbait for gooner sensibilities from 40 years ago.
>>741851642Stellar Blade would be, too if the outrage marketing wasn't that successful, it's a pretty mid game, but mid shit with a bit of ass was always a thing. Just a gag between boys who got it from the bin and showed it to their friends while playing the big butts rap. You need a screeching pippa gore to make it really sell.
>>741851646That's the narrative they're trying to push. The issue with Evie is that they made her attractive yet very young looking (18-ish or so).This puts her too close to the "danger zone".It would be the same as men saying openly they find SOME 16 year olds attractive - those girls might be developed and already look like a very young mature female, but saying they're attractive is taboo even though most guys would be thinking it and want nothing more than to fuck them.
Strongest jailbait of today vs the strongest jailbait in history
>>741850613>What changed?Americans worship ugliness and want everyone else to be miserable like them.
>>741851657>has a jaw and defined musculature I bet some tards would unironically call it woke
>>741851842>The issue with Evie is that they made her attractive yet very young looking (18-ish or so).>This puts her too close to the "danger zone".Literally no one thinks this. Everyone that isn't the parent of the child in question sees 18 as the magical "no more consequences" number. No one looks at an 18 year old and goes "damn, she's too close to 17 so I'm not hitting that".
>>741851893She looks like a plastic doll, same as Eve.
>>741851625Not that Anon, but the issues are the same.The people that are seething over that beautiful volleyball player are cut from the same cloth as the people seething over Evie, it's just heir tactics have changed; most notably trying to equate her design with that of a child.
If you ask me its those aunties getting put into vidya, what's really creepy. They are games for teenage boys. They need young women to find hot. Not creepy 40 year old mom types.Imagine if they'd suddenly put Bob the fat, balding salary man into my holiday horse adventures, who obviously is much better at riding, grooming, and solving horse related petty crimes.Yeah fucking creepy, just like selling 40 year olds as sex symbol and role models to boys.
Here is what the girls think of Evie
>>741852093If its the same issue then find the people bringing up those issues and use that. Making fake images only discredits you.I'm saying this on the side of "fuck roasties", you're just making it harder on all of us.
>>741852134>the girls (male)
>>741852036Evie is a doll with moving parts. We call them androids
>>741852134exactly what this anon was saying: >>741852093
>>741852134>"What is happening?"A woman's first experience with being automatically replaced by younger, hotter females from the sounds of it kek.
>>741852102>Imagine if they'd suddenly put Bob the fat, balding salary man into my holiday horse adventures, who obviously is much better at riding, grooming, and solving horse related petty crimes.Please make this happen.I would laff so hard.
>>741850613social media and engagement farming means we now get force fed everyone's opinion on every minor or fake "controversy", even where it's not warranted.
>>741851842Just because most people's viewpoint is heavily skewed by old movies that had actors that aged very rapidly or movies casting actors for roles 10 years younger than their actual age, doesn't mean that this character is in "the danger zone" unless you broadly define "the danger zone" as anything from the age of 16 to late 30s and 40s.
>>741850613Tourists invading the hobby like a plague
>>741852416Men in the west learned that shit in the 50s and 60s. Somehow feminism fucked aunties so hard they are 70 years behind on thinking being the creepy unc thats want to be popular with the teenagers isn't allright. So you probably find some black and white movie with that shit.
>>741851625>that picThat should be next to the word "cope" in the dictionary, Jesus.
>>741850613>was very commonname 3
>>741852801Tenchu, Tomb Raider, RE4, Bloodrayne, Wet, Heavenly Sword, Ninja Gaiden, Dino Crisis, Timesplitters, DoA, Street Fighter, Soul Calibur.
>>741850613Femoids realized they're getting replaced by fictional women, so they started viewing them as competition. Never forget this trvke, the group of people who hate women the most are other women.
>>741850613We started caring about the feelings of dysgenic freaks more than we cared about aesthetic beauty.That's it.I was drunk last time I posted this but my clarity is up now so I can explain it better.A long time ago being ugly was just an unfortunate thing. Now ugliness is central to several people's identity (trans, not particularly but especially) so the idea of beauty, especially feminine beauty is no longer just beauty, but an identity based attack.
>>741852416>We don't have enough saddles, you'll have to be ridden -erm, I mean- ride bareback.
>>741853287What an interesting and concise way of putting it. Making attractive casts has slowly shifted from "Good marketing" to "this offends someone mentally ill, better enshittify the attractive designs to be fair".
>>741850613They are obsessed with pedophilia. Young = pedo according to them and it's supposedly the worst evil of all
>>741852801I wanted to fuck the flower in conkers bad fur day

Tomboys owe me sex.
>>741850613>>741850814It's not the early 2000s anymore. You could maybe get away with being disgusting misogynistic pedophilic creeps then, but not today.
>>741850613I've fucked girls who look younger than her. She looks around 19-20 to me
>>741853335Holy fuck, that's gold.
>>741853572What are you gonna do when it releases with its problematic content and outsells god of laundry?
>>741853572cope
>>741853437They throw around that accusation just as much as they did racist, nazi and any other phone. Remind me, what happened to those words again? No one gives a fuck anymore because they lost all power. Great strategy you got there, feminazis, absolute retards.
Americans became convinced that you don't look like an adult unless you're fat with dark and tired circles around your eyes from exhaustion and treatable illnesses that its medical system can't actually diagnose without running $20,000 dollars worth of tests on you (they don't actually cost the labs this much, the entire pricing is just predatory and fucked).
Gamers just don't know what real adult women look like so they lust after a char that looks 100% like a 8 yo
>>741853335Why he kinda...
>>741853725THE CRIMSON CHIN
>>741853725Why did you shoop her jawline smaller?
>>741852372This is the conclusion to the whole thread and to the issue of w0ke roasties in charge. This is why you dont make women be in charge of anything ever. Not only they hate men but they also love younger more attractive women than themselves. They hate seeing anybody happy, they thrive in being offended, and then you put them in charge of entertaintment.
>>741853572i look like this and say this
>>741853812I meant to say they hate younger women than themselves damn typeos
>>741853680Move on to cry about the next attractive fictional character. Meanwhile Stellar Blade will make tons of money, and the trannies will be on suicide watch.
>>741853725This is an almost 30 year old Russian woman
>>741853335Lmao, if you don't support this you are a chud
zoomer are scared of being cancelled that they consider 18 year olds too young.
>>741854512zoomies dont give a fuck about that
>>741850901Sure thing. This one is 22 years old in fact. Made in the west too.
>>741854686Please tell me what is similar about the two other than short hair. Because that one doesn't even appear to be playable much less the main character.
>>741854002She was probably like 25 here desu.
>>741851424>>741851625>>741853572I just realized that Evie and Freya are two sides of the same coin. Retards of one side will look at Evie and say that she's a child, and retards of the other side will look at Freya and say that she's the second coming of Bazz.
>>741854763>being this blatantly jewishhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rKxiADUcIMWhat do you get out of trying to tell lies that can be overturned by a lookup that takes ten seconds? Why do you faggots always do this? I've played and beat Sudeki a few years post release.
>retard doing his best to memoryhole young hot girls being a thing in a time when a teenage britney spears in a school uniform was the worlds biggest starWew, the amount of brainrot necessary... >that's not true, she only wore a skin tight body suit in like her 2nd music video
>>741854962Oh I see, she has a ponytail, my mistake I was looking for short blue hair of which I only found this glasses dude.So she resembles Evie 0% then.You could have at least posted Buki from the same game who has "short" brown hair and is a fistfighter instead of a generic busty magewoman.
>>741854250We're not ready to talk about how many young girls who played these games were touched and impacted by the experience.
>>741855061Are you done backpedaling and moving goalposts yet?
>>741855152You said Evie's character design was common but so far have shown me nothing that even resembles her other than "is a woman"
>>741855197>acting intentionally obtuse>uhhh but her hair is all wrongYou could pick up any anime inspired game from 20 years ago and you'd find an attractive tomboy melee fighter in it. You are fucking done retarded kike.
>>741855117Stunning and brave, this modern deconstruction of female centric horse fantasy will really teach young girls to be better woman.
>>741855315You retard I have been setting you up for a slam dunk with Sakura but you are too fucking stupid to take it and instead grasping at the most distant of straws.>short brown hair sporty tomboy fistfighterTHERE. I DID YOUR FUCKING HOMEWORK FOR YOU. YOU COULDN'T EVEN PULL THIS ONE OFF.
>>741853725>Gamers don't know what real adult women look likeWell yeah because in examples like your pic related they take real women and make them way uglier for some reason.
>>741855315>You could pick up any anime inspired game from 20 years ago and you'd find an attractive tomboy melee fighter in it.Who's the "attractive tomboy melee fighter" in Wild Arms 1?
>>741855350>not talimAs I said, retarded kike.
>>741854642Someone post that webm of that sting operation of a 18 yo baiting the 20 yo, (while claiming she was 18 in the bait)
>>741855374This. the forespoken chick looks nothing like her in-game modelmeanwhile kojima and most of east has been getting facescans right for over a decade
>>741850613>>741850814What's weird to me is ok. The character is sexy with a babyface. That just means adults shouldn't lust after her. Should highschoolers playing video games not have characters to lust after?>>741850874These are a different breed of weirdos that thinks vidya causes people to be violent. They think that having attractive young characters is either creating pedophiles (false) or creating a "safe space" where pedo activity is normalized and thus pedo crimes will be handwaved or even not seen as "crimes" altogether if it happens often enough in media (actually has a tiny bit of merit)>>741850901pic related. She's also 16 years old and I find her sexy as shit and I can't find a good pic, but Rare gave her a fat latina ass in game when you look up her dress. As a sidenote I found this on some autists wordpress who wrote an article questioning how sexy a game character was allowed to be and then going into detail about how sexy Kameo was and how vidya characters should be allowed to be sexy and positive role models.
>>741855431Butthurt and attacking your own trying to help you argue better because you got called out for being a ragebait retard. Talim is a stretch and you know it, she's far too girly.>>741855535Why do you keep posting these titcow bimbos
>>741855478>most of east has been getting facescans right for over a decadeThe way you word it implies westoid studios uglify their female characters by mistake despite it being 100% intentional.
Man, i think stellar blade isn't really a good game but I probably will get both now out of respect. Making retards backpaddle to "can't you just put big tiddy woman in games that look at least mid 20" after losing their shit over the bimbo in one is pure gold.
>>741855636I guess, but it would be extremely disingenuous to interpret it that way considering what I'm replying to
>>741855607>Why do you keep posting these titcow bimbosThe drama surrounding Evie is that she's young (or young looking) and sexy. We were prompted to post characters like Evie, and since that aforementioned description is the focal point of the "drama" surrounding her, we're posting young (or young looking) sexy characters from 20 years ago regardless of tit size. But mainly we're posting WESTERN developed game characters because we KNOW the east has not stopped doing that shit in the last 20 years. I think the original poster's challenge was more on the western gals.
>>741850613Almost done with my 100% of SB1. I liked Eve's goon outfits but never really liked Eve as a character. But I already love Evie from the trailer. This game is gonna be peak.

>>741856326Are you looking in a mirror? LMAO
>>741855916>(or young looking)Those sure don't look young but I will accept the canon age being 16, that was pretty common as most games were catered towards teenagers self inserting into characters around their age. That'd piss people off too no matter how they look (just look at the 500yo vampire argument).Still, if you hadn't told me that age, that face just looks like every early 2ks bimbo aesthetic
>>741856371No? I was talking about the image in the op.
>>741850613>her very existence causes endless seething.Where?Is this another case of /v/ supporting a game because "oooh this makes the libs mad!!" when I only ever see /v/ talking about it and nobody else really cares?
>>741855765How do you know it's not good if you haven't played? The game is serviceable. biggest misplay is having the open world sections be deserts. They also reuse half the bosses for the optional content. Story is cliche humanity vs body horror apocalypse but it is memorable after the point of no return. Aside from that the actual combat is good. Definitely not a great game but I wouldn't say it's bad.
>>741856504>I buried my head in the sand, so clearly nothing outside the sand exists and I am safeYou are literally an ostrich.
>>741856564Says the goyim?

>>741856626>I'm on liberal twitterNo such thing. Elon is an evil racist nazi kkk Epstein o algo.So obviously no self-respecting leftist would support him by using his website and would have all moved to Bluesky.

>>741850613>very commonokay, name 10
>>74185061336 years ago just having a female character in a Japanese game was a no no for Americans, so they had to censor localize her into trans because you couldn't hit women or something.Nowadays they still censor but for the opposite reason. Insane people.

>>741850814Zoomers are just utterly mindbroken from having a smartphone/tablet in their hands all the way back to their earliest memories. They had no time to develop or socialize naturally and this is the result. I had a zoomer guy and girl complain to me that they liked each other but couldn't date because he was 23 and she was 21. The jews won.

Fact is there is no explosive outrage about her design, it's just made up grasping at straws on /v/'s part so they can claim some pointless victory in the culture war.

>>741850613We didn't gatekeep hard enough.
>>741855315The issue people have with evie is she has a baby face, as in a person who has a face that looks like it's got baby fat in the cheeks as many people do that makes them look younger. Nobody is crying about her being a tomboy melee fighter, pretending otherwise is actually being obtuse. I'm not saying it's wrong to have that on a character but you're being intentionally retarded thinking "oh so it's the tomboy melee fighter thing that's the problem huh lemme just find some melee fighters that will clear things up"

WOooW!

>>741850613In the past gaming was primarily a nerd hobby made up of people who weren't aligned with the soccer mom and evangelical christian boomers who cried about shit like DnD back in the 80s. But since it exploded into being a more 'normal' hobby, it got infested with woketards who are literally just the modern day pearl clutching soccer moms and evangelical boomers.

These threads seem like mental illness on display. Who are you even fighting? Who are you even arguing with?
>>741851472>Female, young and obviously aimed at japanese gooners.Except it was made by Hungarian developers (literally "Gaijin Entertainment"). It didn't even release in Japan until two years after the Russian release, and a few months after the NA and EU releases
Anyone saying she looks like a child is projecting. Does she look young? Sure, but lots of legal women look young.
>>741863356Same people call Hag of War “Nordic goddess”. Literally worship 50 yo hags don’t you dare look at this 20 yo
>>741854931You are acting as if age is symmetric, but it isn't. The age of a child goes up, but the age of a hag does not go down. A child will eventually reach an age that is generally considered to be appropriate, while a hag has already passed it and will never go back down towards it.
>>741852183These people want exactly the same thing that everyone here wants, but for SOME REASON they think that step 1 is destroying it.
>>741862840It's specifically because I go outside that I know how a woman looks like. And it doesn't look like a child.>>74186268213 yo

>>741865014GIWTWM
>>741863356She looks sexually undeveloped and her face is androgynous.Barely more appealing than the the 50 yo "nordic goddess"
>>741865184>shadow kunoichi outfithell yeah
>>741865268>her face is androgynous.100% faggotry
>>741865708Yeah, androgyny is definitely not aimed at straight people
The girl in the first did absolutely nothing for me. I found she looked way too fake and a bit like a bimbo and her proportions just too exaggerated and cartoonish.Evie though, she's the light of my life and the fire of my loins.
>>741851842You can legally fuck a 16 years old girl pretty much anywhere in the world except in some US states.
>>741866010Literally the same. Eve has a hot body for sure, but her face looks like a porcelain doll, lifeless and plain. She did nothing for me. Evie on the other hand is something truly special.
>>741853572You're the same people who didn't do shit while you knew the president was covering up the Epstein files. All you've got is impotent rage.
>>741850613Boomer let evil take root, they had it so good they felt guilty about it, and that guilt wa used to push evil.
>>741850613What's funny is them going completely off of looks for age meanwhile gacha games have 15 year olds that look like this
>>741868773Ironically it's still tourists invading the hobbyYou can like or dislike either type of character but throwing shit fits over either feels like retards trying too hard to fit in because someone on social media did it.
>>741850613>x years ago *insert outdated shit here*never use this as an opening, you immediately sound retarded
>>741868773>black scientistwhy is hl2 so woke brosUnironically /v/ was arguing Alyx was woke, then it came out and people liked the game so they stopped shitting on it. I remember even seeing boomers in the VR space (a lot of them there) saying they won't play a game with a female protagonist.
>>741854686>>741851002>>741855535These look nothing like the boy in the op
>>741851424None of them believe what they say, women derive truth from consensus so they lie in order to shape a new truth
>>741872414that's not the focal point of the argument.they're young attractive characters that didn't get lambasted back in their day because of their sexiness.X-blades/Blades of Time was basically shovelware and Sudeki was heavily advertised shovelware, so you might argue those two were too niche to cause controversy.But Kameo was an Xbox 360 launch title and one of the supposed fruits of labor from buying Rare and was being pushed as an Xbox mascot alongside Master Chief and no one gave a shit that a 16 year old was running around with fat tits and ass with her belly and sumptous legs exposed. The usual suspects would bitch and moan if they dropped Kameo's trailer today.
>>741851762The culture war isn't that effective. It did very mediocre on PS5, it only did well on PC because of the Chinese. English speaking audiences didn't really care that much in reality.
>>741872925To be brutally honest we're more chronically online now so we're more likely to hear people complain. There's a very real "one dude on Twitter" situation that doesn't even play the same genre of games but feels the need to say shit. Not too dissimilar to your average /v/ poster.
what's up with this new tranny revisionist cope of calling attractive characters culture war marketing or outrage marketing?and then pretend we didn't all see industry (((journos))) and various leftist bot accounts mobilize to try and sabotage it from the start. the fuck>>741851762>>741873242
>>741851642Stellar Blade with anime visuals, which is what it would have had two generations ago, would have had the same reputation.
>>741875768The discourse doesn't feel organic, no one talks about the game, everyone talks about dumb fucks on Twitter and US politics. So I believe it to be a marketing operation. I look on Steamdb. English speakers (the most profitable market) do not compose the majority of Stellar Blade players. They're trying to squeeze the lemon.Does not feel grassroots.

>>741877339How fucking delusional and divorced from reality are you that you think anyone is engaging in stealth marketing on fucking 4chan in 2026?Obviously that's something that happened here in the past, but it's not 2016 anymore. 4chan's userbase has waned and aged and its influence has decreased drastically. All discourse stems from X and streamers now, not this shithole.
>>741879320>you think anyone is engaging in stealth marketing on fucking 4chan in 2026Plenty, and is a common target among shilling services. To pretend that's not the case is delusional and outright misinformed. The most popular boards on this site are like Sanctuary in Diablo and it's a battle grounds for various external interests. I don't know how you can spend time on this site, outright talk to GPT bots, and feel it remains genuine./pol/ and /v/ are extremely common targets for external astroturfing. Other boards like /3/ and maybe /x/ are mostly safe due to low activity.
>>741877339stellar blade's thread seem fairly normal to me. it's just dudes posting art and hornyposting as usualif you want to see astroturfing check out the old marathon shill threads on the archive where 90% of the thread is just marketers screeching and anons trolling them
>>741880002>just dudes posting art and hornyposting as usualI'd be fine with this but most of the time it's culture war posting and Twitter screencaps because they know the game is mid and can't talk about it.>old marathon shill threadsLink them, the only Marathon shills I've seen are ironic. Even the Marathon fans hate the game because the dopamine farm (new players) left.
>>741880420>culture war posting>twitter screencapsliterally every marathon thread kekhttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/734086318
>>741880420How can we talk about the game when all we have is a trailer with no gameplay?
>>741880771That thread is mostly negative outside of a very small handful of defenders (cannibalistic pvp fags). It was March 2026 so people already knew it sucked from the alpha.
>>741880859Even in Stellar Blade 1 threads no one would talk about the game. It's always meta social media discourse or how we should shame Electric Underground.
>>741850613Reminder that Mother Sphere did nothing wrong
>>741881043yeah no shit it's negative. literal shills were shitting up the board for monthshttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/738252205
So why was the American Alita movie never attacked on the basis of being pervy?
In reality, if there is an adult but she looks very young for her age, am I not allowed to be attracted to her just because she looks young? This is the same with Evie. We know Evie is an adult so why does it matter if she looks on the younger side?
>>741880420Personally I haven't played the first one nor do I intend to. That being said I will pre-order the collector's edition of Evie's game on day 1.Until the game (or hopefully a demo) comes out, all we have are hornyposting and drama. The drama has run its course for now after 3 weeks since the trailer released, so we're just left with horny posting and even that will die out.
>>741881434Nobody saw it
>>741881132There used to be plenty of gameplay and story discussion threads back when the game came out on PS5 and then again when it came out on Steam, the problem is picrel made it practically impossible to keep a thread going with his image spamming, also the game has drama and thus shitposters so that's going to put people off as well.
>>741881132ThisGo to a Stellar Blade thread in the archive and without fail it will be nothing but>posting the same webm of her climbing a ladder>screenshots of her in slutty mod outfits>cuckposting>/pol/posting>that one schizo spammingI don't think i have ever seen discussion of the actual gameplay or story on /v/, ever.
>>741881976>cuckposting>mac*ej spamming AI videos of himself getting farted on by eveah yes classic signs of shilling
>>741881976>>741881742>>741881132thread from a week ago discussing gameplay and story >>741344736
>>741882370wtf where's the outrage marketing i was told about
>>741881382I wouldn't say those are shills, those are "pvp only" extraction shooter fags. They ruin every game they touch then move onto the next after spawn camping every new install. They were the target demographic for Marathon, a genuinely bizarre decision. If you want to see more of these types, go to the /vg/.You can easily identify shills by their proximity to US politics as it's an easy engagement force multiplier.>>741881680fair desu>>741881742The weird thing is I don't even have a problem with Nikke threads (same studio) since it's at least consistently on topic.
>>741882596first time hearing a ((())) lie?
>>741882617>identify shills by their proximity to US politicsliterally every marketer in those marathon threads calls you a chud or an incel or a grummz follower, or a some other twitter boogieman dog. that's what real shilling looks like
>>741851642And today, it'd be praised almost as much as Stellar Blade. That alone should tell you all you need to know about the utter state of modern gaming.
>>741882889>ctrl+f>12/15 mentions of "chud" are ironic or quotes of OP's post>0 mentions of incel>0 mentions of grummzpic related
>>741850613>what changedNothing.
Social Media and Like-botting convinced a buncha money bags that sex doesnt sell and women are a massive gaming demo. Neither was true.
>>741883318cont.Actually I reread the thread. Not a single person used "chud" as an actual genuine insult. Unless you believe the poster who argued player numbers were low because people were too busy protesting irl was genuine (are you retarded?)
>>741883318>>741883639https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/731316073this is the standard attitude you find in marathon threads dog. i've never seen this level of bot astroturfing anywhere else, much less in stellar blade threads like we're pretending
>>741851642yes some games are shit with nothing but goon material. Don't think stellar blade is the case.
>>741850613Jews
>>741883858There were 4 usages of chud as an insult. Two of those posts were basically the same argument within the same reply chain, so it's probably safe to say that was the same person. The other two were basically one word replies. The rest were ironic, quotes, or self referential. One guy asked why the game was considered woke (valid point) and was called a marketer.The thread was overwhelmingly negative on the game. If it were a shilling campaign, I'd suggest a refund.
>>741885015it's pretty obvious by this point that 4chan shills are bottom of the barrel and only try to draw attention and interest by flinging shit everywhere hoping it inspires other people to do that too. how 4chan still has shills is real mystery but the easiest explanation is that very influential people just really fucking hate 4chan and enjoy shitting it up for the sake of it
>>741886065If you control the narrative on 4chan you control the narrative on YouTube. Drama YouTube is currently the meta and its culture is downstream from /pol/ and /v/. People that understand this understand it's a valuable shilling target, whether that be selling a dogshit product or tampering with political discourse.
>>741886810Oh yeah, it's 4chan not twitter
>>7418868104chan hasn't been upstream of anything for a long time. this website is compromised and people know it
>>741886810cont.I personally think it's probable Stellar Blade was part of a shilling campaign because I haven't seen Bayonetta, ZZZ, or even Nikke fans care about normie reactions to the art despite being even more sexually provocative. Why this game in specific? I don't have a good answer, but I don't think it was just luck of the draw.While it is possible that Marathon was part of a shilling campaign (it is a AAA production, they're willing to burn money on marketing), they utterly failed in controlling the narrative making me question if this were the case to begin with.tl;dr: filter game discourse by people who can prove they've played it for more than 30 minutes
>>741850613>https://gofile.io/d/n3or2Zcatbox is fucking annoying to upload mosft of the time (upload fails etc, error code 0)
>>741887704
>>741887049The fact goyslop (later turned advertiser safe into "slop") went mainstream is testament to the tight relationship between 4chan and YouTube even today.It's the whole reason we have election tourists. They may not actually be tourists but malicious external influences.
>>741887704>>741889312This would be cute but it fucked up her face in the image and then the video just builds on that
>>741887618>Why this game in specific? I don't have a good answer,Because Evie is just that hot. It's not complicated.
>>741889312evie if she got hit on the head too many times
>>741887618Bayonetta is old and not relevant to modern discourse and the others are gacha you fucking retard. that's why i personally don't give a shit about those games and love Stellar Blade, and i can imagine countless others are like me (sane)
>>741890151She just looks like a standard Korean model desu.>>741890424>the others are gachaYeah, and are also more popular games with English speakers, are actively more sexualized. Yet they aren't part of the culture war discourse. You don't find that weird?
>>741851642just like stellar blade
